if that's an official resignation, I'll tell you: The last set of numbers (1 7 13 19 23 31 79) are the first few 'Happy Primes'. A Happy number is one which, when the squares of it's digits are added together and this process repeated on the sum thereof will eventually come to be one. A happy prime is a prime number that is also a happy number.

Uh.......what IS the next one?
Oh, I have a few.
1. What is so fragile that when you say its name you break it?
2. A man was born in 1955. He is still alive today and well at the age of 33. How is this possible??
3. I was carried into a dark room, and set on fire. I wept, and then my head was cut off. What am I?

I think we're on the wrong track, it might not be food... though for the life of me I can't figure out otherwise. and most poultry and fowl have their heads removed before cooking.
