Hi! Today i'm going to tell 你 facts about strawberries. I hope 你 find these very interesting. Well,lets get started!!!!! :D
Did 你 know?
There is a legend that strawberries were named in the nineteenth-century 由 English children who picked the fruit, strung them on 草 straws and sold them as "Straws of berries". Another theory is the name was derived from the nineteenth-century practice (ands still today, although most farms use raised beds, enclosed in plastic) of placing straw around the growing berry plants to protect the ripening fruit. But the most widely held view is that the name 草莓 was derived from the berries that are "strewn" about on the plants, and the name "strewn berry" eventually morphed into "Strawberry".
The 草莓 belongs to the genus Fragraria in the rose family, along with apples and plums. The name of the scientific classification was derived from the Old Latin word for fragrant. The modern Italian word for 草莓 is still "Fragola".
The 草莓 is not classified 由 botanists as a true berry. True berries, such as blueberries and cranberries have seeds inside. The strawberry, however has its dry, yellow "seeds" on the outside (each of which is actually considered a separate fruit).
Indians called strawberries "heart-seed berries" and pounded them into their traditional corn-meal bread. Discovering the great taste of the Native Americans bread, colonists decided to create their own version, which became an American 最喜爱的 that we all know and 爱情 .. 草莓 Shortcake.
The English and French also found strawberries used the beautiful heart-shaped berries to landscape their gardens. In fourteenth-century France, Charles V ordered twelve hundred 草莓 plants to be grown in the Royal Gardens of the Louvre.
Strawberries have long been associated with 爱情 and flirtation. At wedding breakfasts in provincial France, newlyweds traditionally were served a 汤 of thinned 酸, 酸奶 cream, strawberries, borage and powdered sugar. Miss that "borage"....
On the average, there are 200 tiny seeds in every strawberry. If all the strawberries produced in California this 年 were laid berry to berry, they'd 包, 换行 around the world 15 times. That's enough strawberries to provide every U.S. household with 12 pint baskets.
Respondents to a 最近的 national survey labeled 草莓 爱人 as "health conscious, fun loving, intelligent and happy." Non-strawberry lovers, on the other hand, were described as "weird, boring, stuffy--picky, fussy eaters who avoid healthy foods."
To symbolize perfection and righteousness, medieval stone masons carved 草莓 designs on altars and around the tops of pillars in churches and cathedrals.
Strawberries are the only 水果 with seeds on the outside.
There is a museum in Belgium just for strawberries.
Strawberries are the first 水果 to ripen in the spring.
Strawberries are low fat, low calorie; high in vitamin C, fiber, folic acid, potassium
Strawberries, as part of a 5 a 日 水果 & vegetable program, can help reduce the risk of cancer & 心 attacks.
Ninety-four percent of US households consume strawberries.
Over 53 percent of seven to nine-year-olds picked strawberries as their 最喜爱的 fruit.
Eating strawberries, which are rich in nitrate, can increase the flow of blood & oxygen to the muscles 由 7%. This prevents muscle fatigue, making exercise easier.
In a test, subjects who ate nitrate rich foods like strawberries, before exercising burned 100 更多 calories than those who did not.
