  All look the same as a silhouette.

    We know they follow a fractal pattern.

    As do dinosaurs, which ate the big trees, and (in chicken nugget form) eat the small broccoli trees too

    Nature is beautiful.

      You are what you eat, so dinosaurs are a type of broccoli too.

  Discovering just how many vegetables are all brassica was a lot similar to when I found out that all real tea (black/green/white/oolong) is the exact same plant.

    Wait until you find out about peppers, especially bell. Yellow red and green…

      I assume you’re getting at the extremely vast number of cultivars included in capsicum annuum. There are lots of popular cultivars included in capsicum frutescens and chinense though.

    Except for Red/Rooibos tea which is a Fabaceae legume like soybeans, peanuts, and liquorice.

    I’m not sure if anyone’s see it before, but romanesco broccoli looks absolutely stunning.

      Mmmmm, fractal broccoli…

    • ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      It’s tasty, too – and I fucking hate regular broccoli and cauliflower.

      There’s an orange variant of this which tastes the same but is even cooler-looking.

    I recently took in one of these that was found on commercial produce, and turns out they will starve themselves to death if they’ve learned about the most premium crucifers and are denied them.

  Is it though?

  I can often tell a Brassica species just by looking at it. Redwood seems entirely dissimilar am I dumb and missing a joke here or what?

  source

  • stray@pawb.social ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    No, the joke is that people would potentially believe anything about brassicas at this point because everything else is a brassica.

    source
  • woodenghost@hexbear.net ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    No, it’s just a joke. But lots of veggies are.

    Do brussel sprouts really look the same as cauliflower to you?

    source

    • stray@pawb.social ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      In the leaves, yes. The white part is flowers.
