    Why is microsoft from Germany writing in English? Why don’t they just post it on their main Account which actually has a primarely English-speaking audience?

      The original post (not shown in the screenshot) is from PBS, that’s why it says “Author” by their name. If it was in English (likely) it makes sense to answer in English as well.

    So what this nerd is saying is that we can milk a strawberry??

    Before the tech gets there, let’s commission some “art” on that subject?

    (For real, the seeds being nuts is a stretch)

    I’ve heard every combination of “[food] is actually [plant part]” so any time anyone says this type of sentence, I just roll my eyes.

      Cabbages are actually tree trunks

      Raspberries are actually tubers

      Wheat is actually a berry

      And oranges are actually an eldritch, ante-dimensional horror perpetrated by intelligent, unseen beings

      Also acorns are the progenitors of oranges.

    Like cashews!

    I thought nuts had to come from trees, though.

    Like, peanuts aren’t actually nuts.

        Peanuts claim to be nuts, but they aren’t a legumtimate part of the taxonomy.

        I dunno.

        Although “tree” is a common word, there is no universally recognised precise definition of what a tree is, either botanically or in common language.[1][2] In its broadest sense, a tree is any plant with the general form of an elongated stem, or trunk, which supports the photosynthetic leaves or branches at some distance above the ground.

        Well damn, I guess strawberries can be trees and nuts.

    Is this why strawberries are common allergens? Like so much more common than other fruits?

    While peanuts are not nuts, but legumes.

    Microsoft feigning innocence with cutesy trivia to distract us from their highly unethical business practices. Screw Microsoft. Use Linux 🐧.

    Smelling roses has always reminded me of strawberries, although people think that’s strange. Taste and smell are connected and this explains it.
