Those alternatives are interesting from a tech point of view, but 
nothing can beat the purity of a vintage 'for' loop with *meaningful names*.


salads = [['apple', 'banana'], ['apple', 'lemon', 'kiwi']]

ingredients = []

for salad in salads:
    for fruit in salad:
       ingredients.append(fruit)

print 'Remember to buy %s' % ingredients

Lame & effective (1st adjective is irrelevant outside a geek contest)
