Vegetables do not exist. Well, they exist as a culinary thing. Thereโs just no scientific/botanical definition of what makes something a vegetable.
I appreciate the message, but I find this presentation style to be unbearable, like a shitty clickbait version of a TED talk: fast cuts with exaggerated audience reactions, playing hide the ball with the actual information being presented. And then they took what I imagine is a normal studio production designed for normal TV screens and cropped it into vertical video, published on Youtube as a short. Gross.
Tbf it's a comedy show, it being informative is mostly an accident. This one is rare for being factual and not about why we should nuke the moon or which cartoon characters are invited to the cookout or something like that.
What about Stephen Hawking?
Stephen Hawking is a pile of ash, not a vegetable.
What about him?
