Interesting Question of the Day – 11 May 2020

Christians drink wine during Communion, which represents the blood of Christ.

How many times would you need to take Communion to have consumed one “Jesus” of blood?

That is, how many sips of wine would it take to equal the volume of blood in a human being.

(We found data on average sip size and blood volume, and took the lower end of the estimate given that people were smaller 2,000 years ago.)

There has been a lot of discussion about the housing market, and about how certain generations might have an easier time buying houses if they didn’t spend so much of their money on avocados.

So we wondered… what costs more?  Houses, or avocados?

Specifically, what costs more per kilogram?  The average 200m² two storey Australian house with a timber frame & brick exterior, or an avocado from Woolworths or Coles.
