Ten Facts About Food That Will Seriously Impress You by Nobody: 7:50am On Oct 18, 2016
Things we encounter every day can often hide many mysteries that few people know about. Here are just a few fascinating, surprising, and downright strange things


1. Chili peppers
The color of a chili pepper actually reveals nothing about its taste. You should actually pay attention to its size — the smaller it is, the hotter it will be.

2. Banana

It might sound crazy, but mosquitoes are actually attracted to people who’ve recently consumed a banana. We can only guess as to why this is the case.

3. Bottled Water

In every one of these bottles, the water is slightly different. You’ll never find two sources of water that are exactly the same.

4 coffee

5. Tea

You should never drink tea that isn’t freshly brewed. The Japanese have a saying: ’Yesterday’s tea bites worse than a snake.’ Cold tea irritates the walls of the stomach, so much so that the Chinese consider it the same as poison.

6. Honey

Honey is immortal. The oldest pot of honey that is still edible (!) was discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter — in the tomb of Egyptian pharoah Tutankhamun. It was tested by biologists and found to still be fit for consumption.

7. Eggs

If an egg rises to the surface when placed in some water, it’s no longer edible. This occurs because gases accumulate inside an egg as it gets older, causing it to float.

8. Chocolates

If you eat a small piece of dark chocolate before a meal, it will up your blood with glucose. Even if you’re very hungry, this will prevent you from eating too much, leaving you satiated but not overfed.

9. Avocados

Avocados are a seriously unpredictable fruit.
Never, ever feed birds avocado, even if they clearly want it themselves. It’s very poisonous for them.

10. SAUERKRAUT (popularly called salad here in Nigeria )

Sauerkraut looks after your figure. Its sourness makes your body up to twice as effective at processing fats, helping you in turn to lose weight.
