14 Facts About Food That Will Seriously Impress You
Things we encounter every day can often hide many mysteries that few people know about. Here are just a few fascinating, surprising, and downright strange things we at Bright Side found out about food.
Chili peppers


The color of a chili pepper actually reveals nothing about its taste. You should actually pay attention to its size — the smaller it is, the hotter it will be.
Avocados
Never, ever feed birds avocado, even if they clearly want it themselves. It’s very poisonous for them.
Oreo cookies
The geometric design stamped on an Oreo cookie is supposed to be a variant of the Nabisco logo. But some believe it also resembles the Cross of Lorraine carried by the Knights Templars. However, most customers today see it as a four-leaf clover.
Gravity


Gravity has a great sense of humor and likes to make fun of you when you want a drink. How can you deal with this? There doesn’t seem to be a solution.
Bottled water
You’ll never find two sources of water that are exactly the same.
Food coloring


Coloring in food makes kids hyperactive, especially if it’s a red or yellow food coloring.
Coffee
Coffee beans aren’t actually beans — they’re berries. A more accurate name for them is ’berries of the coffee plant.’
Tea
Honey


Honey is immortal. The oldest pot of honey that is still edible (!) was discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter — in the tomb of Egyptian pharoah Tutankhamun. It was tested by biologists and found to still be fit for consumption.
Camembert


Camembert should be eaten as close to its use-by date as possible, but never after it.
Eggs
If an egg rises to the surface when placed in some water, it’s no longer edible. This occurs because gases accumulate inside an egg as it gets older, causing it to float.
Sauerkraut


Sauerkraut looks after your figure. Its sourness makes your body up to twice as effective at processing fats, helping you in turn to lose weight.
Chocolate


If you eat a small piece of dark chocolate before a meal, it will up your blood with glucose. Even if you’re very hungry, this will prevent you from eating too much, leaving you satiated but not overfed.
Food’s greatest secret


Food is always tastier at night. All food. Always.
