Quiz: Name the vegetable
1. saphire | 2008-08-26 | Английский
You know the rules, 

This vegetable can be yellow, red, orande, green, black or blue....

2. Ragna | 2008-08-26 | Шведский
Tomato

3. saphire | 2008-08-27 | Шведский
Correct,
Have you seen any black ones ??
I have they weren't realy black, more like dark purple.

I didn't even get to say another clue, the next clue would have been that there are smal ones, big ones, cherry ones, pearl ones and so on ...


4. Ragna | 2008-08-27 | Шведский
I have never seen a black one. I just guest,because the other collores I have seen. But also if the people think of the potato as a vegetable botanicly seen it is not. In Wikipedia you read: Botanically, a tomato is the ovary, together with its seeds, of a flowering plant: therefore it is a fruit or, more precisely, a berry.
Then it is my turn to ask after a vegetable. As a vegetarian it should be easy, one think.
I begin with the colors of my vegetable. Actually I myself didn't like this vegetable before I was ten or eleven years old.
The colors: orange white green purple. But it is most likely that you just have seen two of the colors.



5. saphire | 2008-08-27 | Шведский
I know, it's cauliflower !
I have seen and eaten all four colors of it,

And I do know about the tomato, It's just that most people think that it is a vegetable, that's why.  I found a black tomato plant a couple of years ago and it gave me 3 tiny tomatoes,

13. Ragna | 2008-09-10 | Шведский
Cauliflower?????
14. Lauretta Ivy | 2008-09-20 | Английский
No it is not.

15. Lauretta Ivy | 2008-09-20 | Английский
No. This plant is annual and cultivated under tempered climates because it fears cold. Its purple species is the main ingredient of a greek typical meal whose the name begins with "m".
The green, white and orange varieties are mostly found in Africa, and are eaten raw or use to perfume leaves meals..

23. Ragna | 2008-09-29 | Английский
Thank you. We'll see smiley a new vegetable.

Until the potato arrived from the New World, its place in dishes was occupied by the ....... and other root vegetables.

24. Arja | 2008-09-29 | Английский

I’m pretty sure you mean turnip, although in Finland turnip was everyday staples at first, but since the Middle Ages rutabaga was also an important nutritional source. Potato came to Finland after Seven Years’ War but it took several years until potato became more common



25. Ragna | 2008-09-30 | Английский
You are pretty close. This one I like to know about is not round it's looking like a yellow carrot.


26. Ada Edu Régine Judite | 2008-09-30 | Английский
Beet ?

27. Arja | 2008-09-30 | Английский
Ok, then you mean parsnip. But we couldn't ate it here in Finland before potatoes, because it came in here after potatoes. So Finns ate only turnipssmiley
28. Ragna | 2008-09-30 | Английский

30. Ada Edu Régine Judite | 2008-10-3 | Английский
green been ?

31. Arja | 2008-10-3 | Английский
No. I'm sure most people don't think that this is vegetable at all, because it is usually used like a fruit.
32. Ragna | 2008-10-3 | Английский
avokado?

33. Arja | 2008-10-4 | Английский
No, it isn't what I'm looking for. I repeat: it commonly used as filling for pies smiley
34. Ragna | 2008-10-5 | Английский
I'm not a pie eater so it hase to be another hint.

35. Coup de pouce | 2008-10-5 | Английский
filling for pies ? dead hedgehog ? smiley

36. Arja | 2008-10-5 | Английский
^  it isn't vegetable - or is it? smiley


Ragna: You don’t need to eat pies to know, I’m 100% sure that you have heard this. And I still think it was a very good hint, because it is also often called name which originated from this common use.

I don’t give you another hint yet - this is sooooo well-known.  


So, what is the first pie that come into your mind?




 






37. Ragna | 2008-10-5 | Английский
I don't know, I grew up without pie. Maybe blueberry, but this I'm sure is no vegetable.

38. Arja | 2008-10-6 | Английский
Sometimes it is combined with strawberries (it's a delicious taste sensation) 
39. Lauretta Ivy | 2008-10-6 | Английский
green onion ?


40. Arja | 2008-10-6 | Английский
No.
I maybe repeat myself but this ornamental plant often mistaken to be a fruit because it is usually prepared and eaten like a fruit
41. Ragna | 2008-10-7 | Английский
Avocado?

42. Vika | 2008-10-7 | Английский
melon?
43. Arja | 2008-10-7 | Английский
No and no.
It originated in Asia over 2000 years ago. First it was cultivated for medicinal uses

44. Julian | 2008-10-8 | Английский
rubbarb ?


The first pie that comes in my mind is apple pie, and the second is blueberry smiley
45. Arja | 2008-10-8 | Английский
Correct!  Bravo Julian smiley 

Rhubarb called also Pie Plant. We eat the stems and it have't ripedend ovary with seeds so it is vegetable. The leaves are poisonous.


46. Julian | 2008-10-12 | Английский

the name starts with s or z, it's not different spellings, the vegetable have two names, probably more but these are the comon ones. There are green and yellow ones....
