A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
The germans almost got it right with the naming
Kale, Kohl, add Cauli all come from the same Latin word caulis, btw.
Brussel sprouts are also called "Kohlsprossen" in some german speaking areas -> cabbage sprouts. Cauliflower is also called "Karfiol" ("Car-fee-ol which i dont have a fucking clue how it came to be.)
From Italian cavolfiore (“cauliflower”), from cavolo (“cabbage”) + fiore (“flower”).
