Pepper.

at has always amused me-" remarked
a botan ical expert, ITO hear people talk of
their preference for black pepper over
white, and the vari US explanations they
give for the same. Little do they know
that both black and white pepper grow
upon the same shrub. Over the pepper
seed grows a black covering. The seed it.
self is white, or nearly so. To make black
pepper the seed and its external covering
are ground up, while the white Pepper is
the seed alone ground up. White pepper
is milder than black, the greater part of
the pungency being in the covering. A
pepper made of the coverings alone would
be such, to use slang term, hot stuff that
it would burn the mouth. The black COW
ering of the pepper seed contains the
oil. "-Washington Star.
