How Does Your FOOD GROW? Match the corresponding foods to the pictures by putting a number in the photo box.
You enjoy eating delicious foods, but did you know how food grows or is produced? You’d probably be shocked with some of the truths behind how your favorite foods grow. 1) Pineapples These come from crazy spikey looking bushes that grow out of the ground. The fruit comes from the middle of the plant. 2) Sesame Seeds Sesame seeds come from sprouts plants that grow straight up and tall out of the ground inside of little pods known as “buds.” 3) Artichokes Artichokes come from big pretty purple flower with feathery tops. 4) Brussel Sprouts Brussel sprouts are a member of the Germmifera group of cabbages and grow from a leafy green plant that is about 2.5 to 4 cm in diameter. They grow in a cluster and look like little cabbages. 5) Capers Capers grow on a vine of pretty white flowers. They are the unopened buds of the flowers. 6) Pistachios Pistachios grow in clusters on trees. It usually takes seven to ten years for these trees to get significant production with peak production being reached around 20 years. The pistachios are then dried and dry roasted or processed in machines. They kind of look like mangoes. 7. Peanuts Peanuts look like pretty little yellow wildflowers when they grow out of the ground but when you pull those flowers up their roots reveal the little bulbous nuts.
