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.
What should I know about peppers?
What SHOULDNT you know about them‽‽‽
Except for Red/Rooibos tea which is a Fabaceae legume like soybeans, peanuts, and liquorice.
TIL, thank you!
There's mate, which is a different species: Ilex Paraguariensis vs. Camellia Sinensis.
Absolutely love it, in all forms. Yerba mate to start my morning and Club-Mate to extend the night!
