The answer to last week’s challenge is. Q: A female cat had three kittens, Mitzi, Pritzi and Kitzi. What is the Mother’s name.

A: There was no question posed last week given there was no question mark. For those requiring closure however, the Mother’s name is “What”.

This week’s lateral thinking challenge is.

Q: There are three sealed jars of apples. The first jar contains sour apples, the second contains sweet apples and the third contains a combination of both. The problem is, the labels on the jars are wrong. With only one taste test allowed how can you tell what’s in each jar?

The answer along with a new challenge will appear next week.
