It is reported from Russia that a suspected tumor in a man's lung turned out to be a 5cm fir tree, which it is believed must have grown there because it's too big to be inhaled. link Enough of the whys and hows... here's the pic..... have at it with the recipes!

during sinus season I have often felt I had a tree growing in my maxillary cavities.

I disagree. I always cook lung tumors with the fir tree in them to add tang.
