If we’re counting plants in general:
- Dutch - Tulip Mania
- Many places - Opium and similar plant based drugs.
- America - Lettuce lead to the downfall of many people’s bowels this past year.
Downfall lol
In a roundabout way, the pineapple caused the downfall of the Hawaiian nation.
Bananas for others
Fruit of the Loom actually caused an incursion that made universes collide, now everybody is distracted arguing about if there was a cornucopia and how to spell Berenstain
There’s a lot of bad apple in most precincts
Grapes.
The world has been going downhill, since Nehi™ took the Real grape flavour out of Grape Nehi™One apple in the current season of US Traitors caused viewers to have to sit through so much camera time of that annoying dudebro with the crazy dental work.
I’ve read an urban fantasy book series where a genetically engineered tomato wiped out almost all humans… Does that count?
Is “peach” just a euphemism for “buttocks” or is there a deeper meaning here?
It is just a euphemism, since this is a shitposting lemmy, I tried not to make it too deep.
Thanks, I’ll try to calibrate my shitdar accordingly moving forward
Is sugar a fruit? A lot of drama centered around sugar crops
it’s more of an extract rather than something that the plant grows that can be classified as “fruit”. cane and beets are 10-20% sucrose. Even in the most concentrated parts, no one would call that sugar even if it is quite sweet, it needs to be purified further.
Tim Apple did nothing wrong.
Oh, he did plenty wrong. Being a “fruit” wasn’t really much of a factor, tho.
A ruined tomato
