Strawberry seeds are designed by a malevolent god to stick perfectly in human front teeth.

Achenes are not nuts.
(1) Achene. A small hard indehiscent fruit. The term is strictly only applied to those formed from one carpel, but is sometimes used for those formed from two carpels (e.g. the fruit of the Compositae). The latter is better termed a cypsela.
(2) Nut. This is similar to an achene, but is typically formed from two or three carpels (e.g. dock fruit).

i. Achene - A one-seeded, dry, indehiscent fruit; the one seed is attached to the fruit wall at a single point.
ii. Nut - A dry, indehiscent, one seeded fruit similar to an achene but with the wall greatly thickened and hardened.

It is strictly only applied to ones with one carpel, but is used anyway to refer to ones with two carpels? That's not confusing at all
Also, even if they were, it wouldn't make the strawberry a nut. It would make it covered in nuts.
Why is microsoft from Germany writing in English? Why don't they just post it on their main Account which actually has a primarely English-speaking audience?
The original post (not shown in the screenshot) is from PBS, thatβs why it says βAuthorβ by their name. If it was in English (likely) it makes sense to answer in English as well.
I want to fill a spoon with strawberry seeds and see how it tastes
So what this nerd is saying is that we can milk a strawberry??
Before the tech gets there, let's commission some "art" on that subject?
(For real, the seeds being nuts is a stretch)
Strawberries do not have nipples. :(
Ofc not, don't be silly.
Nuts have nipples (where do you think almond milk comes from? Kids today have prob never seen an almond on a farm & think almond milk grows in the stores!).
And if the seeds on the strawberries really are "nuts", then we should be able to milk them.
I see no flaw in my logic.
The real problem these days is with intensive almond farming. Almond tastes better from free range almonds, with space to graze in peace and calm between the bushes.
Have you heard of "bitter almonds"? Turns up in mystery novels. It's what you get from caged almonds raised on steroids.
This thread gets dangerously close to r34 territory, and I do not know if I like that.
Well, unfortunately I'm no artist & I'm against AI (the system, not the tech as such), so no pics.
But yeah, definitely, can you imagine the number of nips on a single strawberry? And the satisfaction of each nut? The dripping milk?
Strawberry cows
If strawberries do not have nipples, then where does strawberry milk come from?
strawberries are accessory fruits, not nuts.
But they're covered in nuts
...which is exactly what the third comment is saying
Like cashews!
I thought nuts had to come from trees, though.
Like, peanuts aren't actually nuts.
There's a legumes joke in there, but I dunno.
Peanuts claim to be nuts, but they aren't a legumtimate part of the taxonomy.
I dunno.
Sorry if I'm misunderstanding your post, but cashews are drupes, not nuts. I don't know whether all true nuts come from trees, but all the ones I can think of do.
If strawberries are nuts, cashews are nuts. It's a seed that grows on the outside of an accessory fruit.
Obviously strawberries aren't nuts either but we're playing pretty fast and loose with words and meanings.
The "nut" from a cashew is the seed a stone fruit (like the center of a peach pit). The strawberry "seed" is the entire fruit.
What is a tree?
I've heard every combination of "[food] is actually [plant part]" so any time anyone says this type of sentence, I just roll my eyes.
Is this why strawberries are common allergens? Like so much more common than other fruits?
No, this post is not even accurate.
The substance in strawberries which causes allergic reactions is the fra a 1 protein which gives strawberries their red color. White strawberries have less of this protein and may be tolerated by people with this allergy, depending on individual sensitivity.

While peanuts are not nuts, but legumes.
I wonder if people are allergic to strawberries are just allergic to the seeds then
Microsoft feigning innocence with cutesy trivia to distract us from their highly unethical business practices. Screw Microsoft. Use Linux π§.

Smelling roses has always reminded me of strawberries, although people think that's strange. Taste and smell are connected and this explains it.
