1) [misha] 30-10-2007(286): At the Mexican fiesta, there is a coccoon eating competition. How many coccoons can one person eat? No one has managed more than two before giving up…

2) [erikkusan] 7-3-2006(43): How many went to the party? Two aliens and one person (I feel sorry for that person).

3) [Justin42] 20-8-2009(33): It is a little awkward when you are at a fiesta and the host serves some rare delicacy, like moth cocoons, the guests must decide how many it would be polite to eat. You do the math in your head and it comes out to two cocoons per person. This is why the horizontal line is a fraction bar with two cocoons on the top, and one person the bottom.

4) [dingomick] 27-2-2007(18): There's a cocoon on each side of the entrance to the fiesta that can detect when a person crosses the threshold. They are the two cocoons that determine how many people are attending the fiesta. So how many were there? The answer is displayed on an abacus.

5) [MRT88] 30-11-2009(16): At the Mexican fiesta, there is a cocoon eating competition. How many cocoons can Mr.T eat? Mr.T currently holds the record at two. Took misha's and edited for Mr. T purposes.
