Everything’s a brassica
can confirm, i’ve been brassica for 3 years now
Life… uh… finds a way
All plants are brassica and all animals are crabs.
That’s what the kids at school started calling poor Jessica because she developed early.
Title text: Sequoia Brussels sprouts are delicious but it’s pretty hard to finish one.
Ok, I laughed. I think Brassica might be the first genus name I ever learnt that actually stuck in my memory, for this exact reason.
I can only remember 3 at a time of all the variations of that plant, and people are always incredulous when I talk about it.
Yeah there are so damn many. Let’s see… broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, uh…
You missed kale and brassica canis.
Kohlrabi.
I thought about it and was like naw can’t possibly be. Too weird. So of course it is lol.
It really is a weird vegetable. I think that someone really liked beetroot but only had brassica, so, they forced it to be more like beets.
Bok choy, choy sum, Chinese broccoli (gailan), napa cabbage, turnips, tatsoi, mizuna, mustard, komatsuna…
Tbf, you’re also looking at other species in the same genus…
Kinda funny that the Magazine called Comic Strips doesn’t require them to be strips lol. xKCD has so many that aren’t strips too.
