You missed my favorite – the periodic table of the vegetables (there’s a copy at All Posters). I have had this hanging in my kitchen for 20 years!

How about the periodic table of Scoville Units (measure of heat in chile peppers)?

You can find it on the Scoville Food Institute web site.

Hokay, so the periodic table of the elements is an important thing, but my favorite table is the one I found–the Periodic Table of the Desserts, which has pictures, complete with calorie count and latin name, of all the important confections none of us can live without. From Fig Newtons to Baked Alaska, it’s much more fun (and most certainly tastier!).

I love the periodic table of Kansas spoof. Really hits home how silly they really are.

Very interesting periodic table of the distribution of elements in the ocean is located on MBARI’s sensor website. Search for MBARI periodic table of ocean.

I highly doubt that the wooden table has a sample of each element. For instance, only about a third of a pound of the element astatine exists on the whole planet.
