Answer 2

You're stuck on an island indefinitely, and the only thing you know about the island is this: there are two communities living there, the "good" community enjoys a nirvana-like existence with all the food, drink, and good friends you could want, the "bad" community suffers from rampant violence, hunger, and cannibalism. The "good" people can never tell a lie, while the "bad" people can never tell the truth.

You have no idea where the communities are located, but you are on a path that will take you to a crossroads (one way leads to the good people, the other way leads to the bad people), where you will have to choose your path: there's no going back once you've made your choice.

Lucky for you, as you approach the crossroads, you see an old geezer sitting there at the junction. You have no way of knowing which community he is from, but you know he must belong to one or the other. He grants you one question: What one question do you ask him, to find out how to reach the good people?



I'll edit in the answer in a couple hours :-)

My first's simply a vegetable, delicious, round and green.
My third and fourth are sound asleep, as plainly can be seen.
My fifth is fifty, clear enough for any riddle-setter.
Two of my second on their sides will give my final letter.
Now that my second has my parts, fit them together well
You see me now before your eyes, it's plain for all to tell.
