I grew fennel last year. Have been eating fennel for years and thought we were eating the root part (the white part) and that the green part was the above ground part. No. There is a root underground but the whole fennel sits on top of the soil looking like it will tip over any minute. The white and green parts.

I know food, have worked at groceries, in restaurants, health food stores, I cook. But gardening has taught me new things, and I’m over 50.

TIL peanuts don’t grow from a tree lol

Peanuts, like coconuts, are not nuts. A person with nut allergy is not necessarily allergic to peanuts (and vice versa). They are 2 separate allergies.

bane_killgrind ,

Coconut is a stone fruit apparently and peanuts are legumes.

I don’t remember the last time I legumed

Other examples or legumes are beans and peas

Legume deez nuts.

Almonds are a stone fruit, too. It’s just that the part we eat is inside the pit. Ever notice how almonds still in the shell kinda look like a peach pit?

Peaches and plums used to be cherry sized, too (and cherries are stone fruits as well, but selective breeding got the fruit-to-pit ratio better for peaches/plums/apricots/nectarines).

So some recipes call for processing cherry pits, and the flavor is pretty close to almond extract. Because almond extract is just bitter almonds processed in a similar way.

Yup, my dad is allergic to nuts (hazelnuts, brazil nuts, and walnuts), but has no issues with peanuts. I have a cousin who’s allergic to peanuts, and IIRC he can eat nuts just fine.

No shit though they aren’t nuts so they don’t grow like nuts

southsamurai ,
@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works avatar

Okay, this may paint me in a bad light, but I was fucking 40 before I learned peanuts grew underground. I ain’t Joe Rogan stupid, but dang.

Nobody around here grew them (that I know of), and I never went anywhere that grew them where I would see them.

I assumed they were like any legume, growing above ground like peas or green beans.

But noooooo, they’re ground nuts. Which I thought was a different plant entirely.

Out of all my damn family on both sides, visiting (and working on) various farms, nobody grew the damn things.

So, yeah.

FiniteBanjo ,

Joe Rogan’s not stupid, he just had chronic traumatic encephalopathy from some injuries in his early twenties. Also he is an asshole.

southsamurai ,
@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works avatar

Well, being as generous as possible, he says things a stupid person would say, with a high frequency. If that’s due to tbi, I feel sorry for him, but he’s still saying a lot of stupid stuff.

bionicjoey ,

If someone says stupid stuff all the time, they are stupid. Doesn’t matter if they have an excuse. Especially if the excuse is that they did something stupid that made them stupider.

Karyoplasma ,

I might be wrong, but I doubt that the TBI left him to be a different person than he was before.

My physics teacher had a TBI from a kart race accident that left him temporarily paralyzed and he had to relearn how walk and speak. People often assumed he was stupid or incapable because of the way he talked, but he was probably the brightest guy in that school by a long shot.

His mnemonics were also top notch. An example: Mnemonics are called “Eselsbrücke” in German (it literally translates to donkey bridge). When learning about harmonic motion, he asked us “What is the Latin word for donkey? That’s right: asinus. A * sin(wt)”. Genius.

Another one that I still use to this day: how to remember what is concave and what is convex? “If a girl has sex, her belly grows convex.”

candybrie ,

Nah man. TBIs can totally mess with your whole personality, cognitive abilities, everything to do with your brain. Maybe if you only get one traumatic event, it might not have the same consequences, but guys like Rogan and football players are repeatedly bashing their brains leading to Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy.

southsamurai ,
@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works avatar

It really does depend on the parts of the brain damaged, and the severity.

A person can completely shift in behavior post tbi. And it absolutely can cause damage that impairs learning and thinking.

It’s impossible to give real numbers because the last time I went looking, there wasn’t enough research out there to properly break down the possible outcomes. That being said, I had a decent share of tbi patients over the years. That fact skews things, obviously; if they needed a caregiver, they had a more severe injury in the first place. But personality shifts were common, and functional capability varied greatly, even within the type of injuries that required caregivers after the fact.

It’s frankly terrifying to run into the patients that are 100% there intellectually and awareness wise, but stuck with limited ability to communicate.

I_Has_A_Hat ,

That’s an odd route to go for remembering concave and convex considering concave has the word cave in it and looks like a cave.

Karyoplasma ,

Speaking of caves, stalactites are the things hanging down, like saggy tits.

ThoGot ,

In plenty of languages peanuts are also called ‘ground nuts’ or ‘earth nuts’

zaphod ,

The english Wikipedia article mentions that it’s sometimes called groundnut in english too.

Vlyn ,

Ouch, I had to think about what it’s in my motherlanguage and it’s actually earth nuts (Erdnüsse in German).

If you had asked me how they grow it would have been a 50/50 if I got it wrong.

ouRKaoS ,

Seeing how cashews grow is the one that fucked me up.

Explains why they cost so much.

    Stupidity is a cancer in our society. It deserves ridicule and scorn, not niceties. Note, this is different from ignorance. There is nothing to be ignorant about here, just piss poor reading comprehension and disregard of context clues. Shameful.

    If it helps, and you probably aren’t aware, but we are ridiculing you.

    Spitting out yr gum in astonishment five times a day is not rational.

    But ya, wtf.

    Szyler ,

    No, because there are error bars on “things”, and “everyone”, and “knows”, and on “by the time they are 30”.

    This means that statistically, following a Bell curve on where people land based on this, there will be some that will be much older, and much younger that have heard of a specific thing to the point of “knowing” it.

    Yea, hate him or not, he immediately researched his incorrectness. This is not something we should make fun of. Education is how we solve ignorance, even if the topic is nuts.

    I hate you, have my upvote.

    androogee ,

    Nah I’ve watched him ask for a claim to be checked, his checker came back saying that it was a true claim when it was total bullshit.

    Dude gets zero credit for half assed - at best - fact checking. Peanuts are not dire, but the dumbass wants to get into life or death real world shit without doing the work. Fuck Rogan.

    Ookami38 ,

    Honestly I think the only reason I kinda realized was because we distinguish peanuts from tree nuts - nuts that do grow on trees. The implication thus that peanuts grow at least not in trees.

    I live in SW Ontario which used to be prime tobacco territory as in teenagers used to work tobacco fields in the 90’s when I was in HS. Both peanuts and tobacco love a loose sandy soil.

    Point being, no one is expected to know how something grows unless they have some knowledge that makes them intimate or they’re a fucking nerd. Lol

    Duamerthrax ,

    No one’s criticizing Rogan for not knowing everything. The punchline is how he reacts to new knowledge and how he builds a false narrative to explain it

    Potatos_are_not_friends ,

    Okay, this may paint me in a bad light, but I was fucking 40 before I learned peanuts grew underground. I ain’t Joe Rogan stupid, but dang.

    I think that’s why dudes are magnetized to Joe. Interesting trivia that at no point does the average person need to think about are brought up and it’s fascinating.

    Unfortunately, Joe also mixes in conspiracy BS. His extreme lack of critical thinking (or thinking with cherry picked data to fit a particular narrative), is why his fans are constantly belittled by people looking in.

    @No1@aussie.zone avatar

    Well, a key question is ‘Do you think a chimpanzee would let Joe Rogan fuck them?’

    Because if not, it’s not consensual, and that opens up some serious questions.

    zout ,

    Good luck trying to fuck a chimpanzee without consent. Those are strong as hell.

    No1 , (edited )
    @No1@aussie.zone avatar

    OK, I’m not for attempting to fuck chimpanzees without consent either.

    But yeah, you are right. One of those serious questions - with the most serious of consequences - would be: “Could you actually fuck a chimpanzee without consent?”

    Jamie, pull that up for me.

    SkyezOpen ,

    The question is irrelevant because Joe would prefer to wrestle the chimp into submission first. This reminds me of that time he interviewed a chimp.

    No1 ,
    @No1@aussie.zone avatar

    It probably says more about me than Joe, that I didn’t want to click that link, because I thought it might actually be real.
