i always hear the phrase "its like comparing apples and oranges" and i never really got it because theres a clear cut winner in my book.

so ill take a poll to see if this expression holds true.

Oranges. Nothing beats a glass of fresh-squeezed orange juice together with the breakfast.

By the way, as I was the second person voting, and the other vote was for carrots, I assume you didn't vote yet?

Bacon is the clear cut winner. It isn't even in this poll, and it wins, because Bacon wins, always.

Is one supposed to be superior? I thought the point was that they were both way different.

i would like to hear someone use it as a superior/inferior analogy though.
