Description

"Fruits vs. Vegetables" is a fascinating journey into the world of plants that debunks our prejudices about familiar foods. The author, a famous botanist Oleksiy Kovalenko, explains in simple and interesting language why a tomato is a fruit and buckwheat is a nut. The book not only collects scientific facts, but also tells fascinating stories about the origin of products, their unusual properties and cultural associations. You will learn about attempts to treat infertility with cucumbers, about myths about aphrodisiacs and how to cook chestnuts at home. This is not a botany textbook, but a fascinating story about what we eat every day. The book is full of humor and unexpected facts that will make you take a new look at your dinner table. This is not just a book about food, but about the world around us, about history and science, about how small seeds grow into big trees and become part of our lives.
