I think you've got the answer, even though it seems slightly defective. I wouldn't hold a local radio station to the same standard of accuracy as the news department of the New York Times. In addition to popcorn not being brown, the list is not inclusive because it does not include bread, which is available in white and brown. Also, mushrooms, sugar, rum, and Karo syrup. |

The Mayans may have used eggs, but they didn't use chicken eggs, and eggs (from other birds than chickens, which were a classical-era introduction from India) themselves have been used by European peoples since prehistoric times. |
