Brazil Nuts are grown in the rain forest. They are gathered by native workers and sent around the world. Many products are grown in the rain forest. The hard shell of the Brazil Nut is hard to crack. Some parrots have sharp beaks to break open the shell.
Pineapples are part of a group of plants called bromeliads.
These plants have stiff leaves that help water travel to the center of the plant. A big bromeliad provides a home for insects and small water animals. Cocoa is a drink that is made with this powder mixed with milk. Africa harvests about two-thirds of the world's cocoa beans. Most of the rest comes from South America.
