These Foods Don’t Grow The Way We Imagined

Artichokes

Artichokes are the kind of vegetables that you don’t really buy on a regular basis because they just look a little too fiddly. However, they are pretty tasty! We bet you didn’t know how they are grown, though? Don’t worry, we didn’t either. Artichokes grow on the side of beautiful and strange plants that lie within the thistle family.

Because of this, the flowers are spiky and weird, but also pretty mystifying. The trick with this plant is that you need to catch the flower before it blooms because this is the vegetable that many people like to add to their weekly menu.
