I’m 14 and this is deep
In fairness if plants had their names written on them, I’d probably be able to identify those as well.
monsanto: “write that down, write that down!”
Plants rarely have their name written on them though
I always felt that broccoli was spelt the way it looked
I think broccoli and cauliflower should switch names, broccoli looks way more cauliflower and cauliflower way more broccoli.
Say hello to my little friend
Brocoflower
Mandelbroccoli
Happy Cakeday! 🍰🎂
Do we do that here? Can we not? I thought we agreed not to.
Broccoli, cabbage, kale, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, bok choy, turnip, radish, collards and Mustard greens. 10 different plants, easy peasy!
I’ve got some bad news for you…
I choose not to acknowledge it!
If plants had their names on their leaves I’d recognize a bunch of them as well.
Because corporate logos are intentionally designed to evoke the brand they represent?
Yeah, stupid nature. Doesn’t even know the basics of brand recognition.
If you can’t recognize most of the plants in the produce section, you really oughta be eating more fruits and vegetables. I don’t really like veggies either and I still know more than 10 plants just in the category of food you can buy with a corporate logo on it.
Vegetables are often the root of the plant. Fruits are the… well fruit.
I think the context of this meme is about the plant as a specimen in nature.
Below is a picture of a carrot plant and onion plant.
If not for survival video games i would not have known.
You R E A L L Y want to get your carrots/parsnips right when it comes to ID, though. Water hemlock is fatal if ingested, and several parsnips will give you gnarly blisters if you come into contact with their sap
Delectable tea, or deadly poison?
Try Labrador Tea. Just don’t overbrew if you don’t like psychosis
To be fair, the Apple logo is also a plant.
Fruits aren’t plants
If the names of the plants would be spelled for me under each plant every time then that would greatly enhance my memory.
Let’s make sure to shame the people being bombarded by advertisements for 90% of their lives. That’ll motivate them to be more cognizant of botany
what… how is this a dystopic thing. put aside the fact that knowing brands helps me make decisions all the time and knowing plants wouldn’t help me at all since I’m not a forager… you could get rid of all corporations today and make us live in a perfect, moneyless, classless utopia and 20 years later I could still name maybe 4 different flowers because I don’t give a shit what they’re called.
Also brand marketing is built to sear their brand into your brain vs. plants who just vibe.
I didn’t touch that because that’s part of the complaint. I’m saying even accepting that as something to complain about, surely you could have much better things to compare than fucking plant names.
Ok, then. Lets make a list of 11 plants easy to recognised to help society:
- clover
- dandelion
- blackberry thorn
- nettle
- mint. There is different types so this one can be trickier that the others. The leaves are rounded or on the rounded-side and smell like mint when rub btw the finger
- daisy
- daffodil
- cowslip
- mallow
- bindweed
- oaktree
Here you go. Enjoy saving society from its decline.
Oh look, r/im14andthisisdeep finally migrated to Lemmy!
How many of those plants do ppl use in their daily lives? vs How many of those corporate products do they use in their daily lives?
It’s a bullshit claim anyhow. Try only using logos that don’t have the company name in them.
is the number 1000 based on anything? i’m curious if there have been any studies on the amount of logos most people recognize. 1000 seems high but also not, so i wonder if there’s science to back it up
It’s obviously bullshit.
Could you imagine sitting through a survey with over a thousand logos and plants to be able to reach this conclusion?😆
