@VOXdotcom & #Vegetables' slide to Extinction - #Vegetable #Veggie #Vegetal #Vegetarian


The word “Vegetable” carries the scent of “to be Strong, Lively” (Non-|Animal Life, |Dull, In|active, living more like a |Plant).


    VOX mentions crops that are dwindling down due to a lack of Genetic Diversity:
  • Corn (Maize)
    • now mostly one variety, out of many which included ...
    • Dibble's Mammoth
    • Kendal's Early Giant
    • Potter's Excelsior
  • Wheat
  • Beans
  • Rice
  • Tomatoes
  • Bannannas


... But I'm still searching—You know anything about how this word developed into 'meaning something different from the meanings traced above'? Comment below!
