You Wouldn’t Guess How These Products Grow

hello everyone most products appear in our refrigerators directly from supermarkets and other stores where today you can find almost any product few people grow fruits vegetables and other crops and their own but today we'll open the veil of secrecy a little and show you how the products we all know grow before they end up at your dinner table let's get it on [Music] potatoes the birthplace of potatoes is South America where wild potatoes can still actually be found their introduction as a crop began some 9,000 or 7,000 years ago on the territory of what is now Bolivia just imagine how long a time ago it's been it said that in the Incan calendar a unit of time was defined as the time needed to cook a potato that is in Peru they said the same time as past as it would have taken to cook a potato today potatoes are spread all over the world and people have learned to be many different things with this product from alcohol to pills however to create a bag of potato chips potatoes must go on a fairly long and unusual trip in fact unlike many vegetables and fruits potatoes are not a vegetable but a tuber after ripening it is extracted and separated from the roots and herbaceous part some of the tubers are used to replant potatoes others as cattle feed but most are sent for further processing to become potato chips grandmother's potato cake or hash browns the fruits and plant parts contain solanine which can cause poisoning in humans and animals so they cannot be eaten pine nut pine nuts are known not only in Siberia and the Far East but also in other countries however the main place for collecting these nuts is the Siberian taiga most large Cedars grow in the rocky places of eastern Siberia in the West as well as in the mountainous regions of southern Siberia it's not surprising that pine nuts are one of the most expensive products in the world a lot of effort is needed to reach them the pine nuts are in sight the cones which in turn mature in the seat of pines the harvest season for pine nuts usually begins in early September and in the mountainous areas in the middle of the month with strong winds ripe shoots on treetops fall off easily but sometimes they need a bit of help people have to shake the tree hits it with a special hammer or even climbed to remove the shoots manually by the way this is not so easy when the tree can reach a height of 40 meters the harvested cones are placed in a special drum to separate the nuts and then they're dried peeled and sometimes fried Brussels sprouts even if the name of this vegetable doesn't ring a bell you've probably encountered it at least once yes these are the little cabbages your parents try to feed you as a child while you wanted something sweetened almost definitely unhealthy if you see these little cabbages it seems they should grow like any other cabbage but something has gone wrong in nature the fact is that brussel sprouts grow on the trunk at first the trunk appears than the leaves and only then do the fruits three or four centimeters in diameter forming small heads from 20 to 60 pieces at a plant they are the ones we eat after they're cut from the trunk and for example boiled did you expect that or strictly speaking Brussels sprouts have a distant relationship with a cabbage this mutated species appeared in Belgium presumably in the 16th century from where it traveled to other countries in Europe and the world pineapple do you think the pineapple like other tropical fruits grows on a palm tree high above the ground well no pineapples have nothing to do with palms or trees the herbaceous pineapple plant doesn't grow more than a meter and a half yes you can even say that the pineapple is our herb it is strange but it's true pineapples grow on the ground almost like a cabbage but they look more like the tip of a tree which has fallen sharply underground long sharp leaves and in the middle on the long stem the pineapple by the way the fruits of the pineapple is actually a group of small fruits each of which is formed from its own flower then they grow together and form the fruits to which we are accustomed yes that's why the pineapple has so many cells on the outside that resemble the scales of a dragon or a pinecone although the home of the pineapples is Paraguay in southern Brazil most of these fruits are now grown in Southeast Asia and some pineapple fanatics managed to plant them even at home watermelon the size of the watermelon indicates that no tree could bear such a huge fruit in fact watermelons grow as close to the ground as possible since pumpkins are their closest relatives watermelons are all harvested by hand although the help of a harvester is also used sometimes well Africa is considered the birthplace of this sweet striped fruit according to most botanists watermelons first appeared in the Kalahari Desert you probably didn't expect such an arid homeland to be the place of origin of watermelons but you can't argue with scientists in this area you can still find this fruit in the wild however modern watermelons are very different from those known 4000 years ago in those days they had a bitter taste and a size similar to that of a grapefruit around the year 2000 BC this fruit was first found by the ancient Egyptians and so began its history kiwi if you ask a person where does a key word grow you'll probably make this person think for a long time in fact most of us have never seen this fruit in its natural habitat so to speak is it a tree or a shrub somewhere like a potato but green on the inside or you know well be prepared to be surprised the Kiwi is a Liana that looks like a tree but does require support the fruits are arranged on the plant in groups and at harvest time they're all cut at the same time it's very interesting that during the season the color of the leaves of this plant changes several times they can be green whitish pink and crimson and all this happens in one summer Kiwis are eaten only after they've matured and the thin skin has been peeled due to the small hairs the skin of the Kiwi is actually quite unpleasant artichoke this delicious vegetable known as the artichoke is grown in countries such as France Spain and Italy practically all the artichokes supplied to the American markets are produced in California and the City of Castroville California even claims to be the artichoke capital of the world we have to say that when you look at these strange sprouts that amp'd seem to be edible even less appetizing in the artichokes as they grow in the bush look it's like trying to eat flowers the fact is that these plants are related to the thistle and as soon as the buds begin to grow they instantly become inedible therefore only unopened buds are suitable for eating their cuts and consumed in a week while the aroma is not lost depending on the size the artichoke can be eaten raw marinated or cooked date the territories of Saudi Arabia Egypt Tunisia and Morocco where evidence of the cultivation of this tree four thousand years before Christ has been found are considered the place of origin of the date palm this tree grows for at least 60 years and bears fruit every year is not surprising that in ancient times dates were considered one of the main foods the date palm that grows in a warm climate is a tree up to 30 metres tall with beautiful leaves that look a bit like feathers the can reach 5 meters in length so the palm is really big to collect the fruits of this tall tree workers climate with a special fastener cut groups of dates and lower them to the ground where they're then dried up to 80 kilograms of fruit can be collected from each adult date park today Saudi Arabia is the leader in the production and export of dates is closely followed by Iraq and Iran Egypt Bahrain and Algeria the United Arab Emirates Syria and Tunisia were left behind even in the United States date palms can be found for example in the state of California this tree is also found in Mexico and Australia Almond although almonds are often classified as nuts it is in fact a stone fruit the size and shape of the almond tree are similar to peach seeds and they grow on trees that bloom incredibly beautifully after flowering small green fruits form on the branches however they're not suitable for eating and the tree seems to know it they throw their leaves quite early and the fruit dries quickly and opens up only the stone remains but they don't look like almonds yet it's necessary to reach them to collect the stones the fruits are knocked down from the tree and then removed from the shell with a special machine previously this work was done manually but now the help of technology is used and only then the nut is sent for further processing fried and used in various dishes or cosmetics cocoa powder to produce cocoa powder you don't need to grind up chocolate bars this product has a much longer a more difficult production method the cocoa tree is quite tall there are specimens up to 15 meters but on average the height of the fruit tree is 6 meters which facilitates harvesting the trunk is straight up to 30 centimeters in diameter and has yellowish wood and brown bark the tree produces fruit throughout the year and to collect the ripe fruit people use knives machetes pruners or any tool that can cope with solid wood the fruits are cut into several pieces then the seeds are removed from the pulp by hand to send them to dry in special boxes the sorted seeds are cleaned fried and separated for the parchment layer then crushed and passed through various filters to obtain a high-quality powder the roasted crumbs are ground and squeezed into a thick stretching mass called cocoa butter well if you add vanilla sugar milk powder and various additives to this mixture you get the same chocolate the supply for sale what about cocoa powder so let's go back to the stage for the cocoa beans are ground after squeezing the cocoa butter a dry cocoa paste remains after cooling it's ground into large chunks and then it's a powder and that's how it becomes everyone's favorite cocoa dude are you looking for new technologies and great gadgets are your thoughts focused on the future do you love huge vehicles and can't imagine your life without robots around here and visit tech zone and you'll find all
