Ok, I think what you are trying is to get all data in a string list:
import urllib, csv
url=r"http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~joshua/teaching/cs3101/simpsons_diet.csv";
simpsons=urllib.urlopen(url)
reader=csv.reader(simpsons,delimiter=',',quotechar='"')
list_string = []
for char,meal,ate,qty,com in reader:
if char != 'Character':
list_string.append("%s %s %s %s %s" % (char, meal, ate, qty, com))
print list_string
Doing something like this you can format all strings as you want and keep
them into a list
