The French government is doing hard-hitting research.
A new study on young people and their diets have revealed that young people don’t know anything about zucchinis. Those aged 15 to 24, which accounts for 20%, cannot tell the difference between a zucchini (more commonly known in France as a courgette) and a cucumber. Faced with an image of a zucchini, 18% of young people thought they recognised a cucumber while 2% thought they saw an aubergine.
Can anyone actually tell the difference between a zucchini and a cucumber?
