Luke Likes 'Smart Cookie'

Oh, I love this stuff. I love this stuff when I find out, so I learn something new, I find out, I find out something that I didn't know before. And when it comes to food, when it comes to food, it's pretty much every day, very often. I find out stuff, new stuff.

Like the fact that, hmmm, let me think, a tomato, a tomato is not your vegetable, it's a fruit. I'm sure you know that. I know that too, but I don't agree. It's not a fruit. It can't be a fruit. It must be a vegetable. Every supermarket will tell you that. It is with vegetables, it's together with vegetables. So for me, it's always a vegetable.

Plenty, plenty of stuff like that. Obviously, according to scientists. And when I say scientists, I mean people who have access, who have access to the internet, those people. Yeah.

Did you know that dark chocolate that has seventy percent or more, seventy percent or more cocoa, cocoa contains, which is has, contains more caffeine than coffee? Did you know that? This, I must say, is very important information, because as you know, when I see chocolate, when I see chocolate, I get crazy. And I think I know why. I think I know why now. I stay up all day, I stay up, so I don't go to sleep, I stay up all day, all night. And I need more, I need more chocolate.

And did you know that raspberries, raspberries, those sweet raspberries are a member of the rose family, of the rose family? Did you know that? How cute is that! How cute! That's amazing. And I guess they make me think a little bit of roses. And they have those little needles, little needles, thorns are called in English, little needles, which roses also have, roses also have. It all makes sense. Beautiful science.

Okay, so did you know, did you know original carrots, whatever that means, original carrots were not, in fact, orange, were not orange, but they came in many different colours? They, originally, originally, they were purple and yellow. That's what scientists say. That's what scientists... and actually the Museum of Carrot says. The Museum of Carrot. Did you know that there is a Museum of Carrots? It's so great! So original carrots, not orange at all. Now I wonder why, I wonder why just orange ones, just orange ones, and yellow and purple ones are gone. Discrimination.

And, oh, that's a good one. Did you know that ketchup, ketchup was, at the beginning, at the beginning, was sold as a medicine, as a medicine for stomach problems, stomach issues, issues, problems? Did you know that? Well, I guess it doesn't work. It doesn't work. I wonder if you needed a prescription for that. Ketchup. Not a big fan. Not a big fan.

Okay, and maybe the last one. Did you know, did you know that bananas, bananas might be, might be, again, according to science, according to science, which is the internet, which is the internet, might be the world's oldest fruit?The world's oldest fruit. So might be more than 10,000 years old now. 10,000 years old. And they are pretty fascinating, fascinating... fruit? Now I'm scared, I'm scared to use this word, fruit. I'm not sure now.

Did you know that bananas float in water? Float in water. So it doesn't go down, it doesn't sink, go down. So the oldest fruit in the world can float in water. How cool is this! Not very useful, I have to say.

So remember next time you have a banana, you are close to some water, try and see, try and see for yourself if it floats, the world's oldest fruit.

Yeah, life is full of surprises. The internet is full of surprises. It is, it is. And I know all of that because I'm your smart cookie. I'm your smart cookie. Oh, and I like cookies too.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!
