Sesames
Tuesday, 17 February 2009
Apple seeds grow into apple trees and produce apples. Pumpkin seeds grow into pumpkin patches and produce pumpkins. Sesame seeds grow into sesame somethings and produce sesames. Does anyone actually know what you get when you plant sesame seeds - a street or a big mac perhaps? But more importantly does anyone actually know what a sesame is (let alone what happens if you open one of them)?

I've never thought about it before now. However, I have just done the research and can discuss sesame plants and seeds at length. (As long as I remember it all!)
There's a similar thing with oil. Squeeze an olive, get olive oil. Squeeze some peanuts get peanut oil. So where does baby oil come from?
