EATING THE ALPHABET

FRUITS AND VEGETABLES FROM A TO Z

It is difficult to find precise records of where certain fruits and vegetables were first grown.

Fruits and vegetables spread to many areas of the world, and today they are grown across the globe and quickly shipped to markets in faraway places. That is why you don't always have to wait for a certain growing season to find your favorites. You can eat strawberries while you watch snowflakes falling outside your window.
