If you can't recognize most of the plants in the produce section, you really oughta be eating more fruits and vegetables. I don't really like veggies either and I still know more than 10 plants just in the category of food you can buy with a corporate logo on it.

Vegetables are often the root of the plant. Fruits are the… well fruit.
I think the context of this meme is about the plant as a specimen in nature.
Below is a picture of a carrot plant and onion plant.
If not for survival video games i would not have known.

And the carrot plant looks near identical to Giant Hogsweed because they're both in the same family. One has a delicious carrot underneath and will do you no harm, you can even eat the green tops. The other will cause you severe burns even just by brushing against it. The plant itself doesn't even burn you, it destroys the skin in such a way that sunshine is what burns you.
Cause we don't live in a forest anymore?
I knew there was something wrong with my place in Phoenix, AZ. Dang Democrats stole the forest!
How many of those plants do ppl use in their daily lives? vs How many of those corporate products do they use in their daily lives?
To be fair, I can't eat plants. Oh wait, that's not fair at all. DAMN IT
No no you are right, you can't eat plants. Checkmate vegans!
I have this condition where if I eat broccoli or cauliflower, I begin to violently projectile vomit due to the taste.
Embrace the smug gardener and only use the latin names
What’s the latin word for nike?
Victoria
Gonna harvest my Solanum tuberosums.
Because corporate logos are intentionally designed to evoke the brand they represent?
Yeah, stupid nature. Doesn't even know the basics of brand recognition.
Also most of the logos are just the name next to an icon. Plants only occasionally have thier name written next to them.
To be fair, the Apple logo is also a plant.
Fruits aren't plants
If you know the name of the fruit you usually know the plant, cause more often than not it's the name of the plant. For instance, apple comes from an apple tree.
And once you've eaten a rotten apple, you never forget.
Plants rarely have their name written on them though
I always felt that broccoli was spelt the way it looked
I think broccoli and cauliflower should switch names, broccoli looks way more cauliflower and cauliflower way more broccoli.
just proof of the successful campaign by Big Broccoli and the DRAM video 🥦 kids even went with the haircut
