Fruits are a wonderful thing. But what we don't normally think about is what they really are. First off, imagine a garden hose with a balloon attached to the end. When you turn on the water, the balloon will fill. Fruits work in essentially the same way, only instead of just water they are also filled with nutrients. Secondly, think about a flower for a moment. The pretty little plants don't grow to make the world look pretty. The truth about flowers is that they reflect different colors to attract specific insects so they can reproduce. Now, combine the two ideas into one. Fruits grow from what we call "flowering plants". The fruit is like a flower. They attract critters of all kind. When eaten, the seeds are generally ingested, but not DIGESTED. Instead, the seeds come out of the other end of the animal and will hopefully sprout the next flowering plant. From the plant's ovaries
