What are some mind-blowing facts about food?

 Did you know carrots were originally purple, and the orange ones we eat today were bred in the 17th century to honor Dutch royalty? Nature clearly loves a good makeover!

Cashews, one of the world’s favorite snacks, don’t grow inside a shell like most nuts; they actually hang from the bottom of a cashew apple, looking like something out of a sci-fi movie.

Meanwhile, watermelons are made of about 92% water, which basically makes them the sweetest hydration hack on a hot day.

So remember, food isn’t just fuel; it’s full of crazy stories, hidden benefits, and little surprises that make healthy eating way more exciting! Stay curious, stay colorful with your meals, and your body (and brain) will thank you.
