Always Wondered - Why Do Our Fingers Get All Wrinkly In Water?
from Always Wondered
In this episode of Always Wondered, we tackle the question: why do our fingers get all wrinkly when exposed to water? You may be surprised to learn that evolution had a good reason for those prune-like fingertips. Also, there was a time when we could receive almost anything by mail order. And we’ll tell you about some of the strangest items! Plus - learn the origin of the phrase “someone has a chip on their shoulder.” (Spoiler alert: Cool Ranch Doritos were not involved.) Join host Rick Peterson as he answers more of the questions you’ve Always Wondered about. DORITOS® and COOL RANCH® are registered trademarks of Frito-Lay North America, Inc.
