These Foods Don’t Grow The Way We Imagined

Capers

While there are some people who can take or leave capers, there are others who love to add these bad boys into their dishes. That’s because capers can (quite literally) spice up your food, and contribute a certain tang that some people just can’t get enough of. Yet, did you know that capers were actually grown on the caper bush?

The plant creates beautiful white and pink flowers, and the tiny buds are notoriously difficult to pick because they are just so small. Once the capers are picked, they are then pickled or brined in vinegar or salt to give it its distinctive taste.
