Food shocker for today! Strawberries aren’t true berries. Bananas are! A true berry develops from one flower with one ovary and usually has seeds inside. • Bananas grow from a single flower with one ovary. • Strawberries don’t, each seed is on the outside and is its own tiny fruit. #botany #SurfFeeds #foodstories #fruit #FoodTrivia #foodculture

Food shocker for today! Strawberries aren’t true berries. Bananas are! #FoodTrivia Why? A true berry develops from one flower with one ovary and usually has seeds inside. •  Bananas grow from a single flower with one ovary. •  Strawberries don’t, each seed is on the outside and is its own tiny fruit, making strawberries an aggregate fruit. Botanically speaking… bananas win the berry title! Botanists, please way in! #botany #foodculture #foodstories #fruit

When the Cranet people of Exoplanet 23584 first ground glass and invented telescopes, they looked up and saw the dots were planets. But they also saw millions of these strange white clusters floating between the first and second planet. Later they understood that they were frozen water, similar to Saturn’s Rings, but the perfect distance from the sun to warm and cool into spheres. It must have been winter when they named them Cleocran. Because that translates as Snowmen. #scifi #exoplanet #seed #fruit #nature #photography
