Okay see reading shmoop er's We got another block of

00:05

five paragraphs here let's Just get to him All right

00:07

We're gonna go to the question First Columbus called fruits

00:10

of the capsicum species peppers because why All right let's

00:17

go skin the paragraph here and say we're gonna figure

00:19

it out upon reaching the new world Chris for club

00:21

is one of the first european to encounter the fruits

00:22

of the caps come species calling them peppers because that

00:25

a spicy hot taste unlike anything else Okay we don't

00:28

need to read any further just says they call them

00:31

peppers because they had a spicy hot taste unlike anything

00:35

else that's it they just answer the question right there

00:37

People weaken Stop reading it's right there It's d all

00:40

right let's go through loser bowl here and everything else

01:00

off pretty much everything else here pretty easily Although peppers

01:03

would be added too many dishes in the future Well

01:05

that wasn't the reason why columbus chose the name peppers

01:08

definitely easier to pronounce and capsa come But this didn't

01:11

necessarily have anything to do with the naming decision And

01:14

finally appealing to the spanish and portuguese was very important

01:17

to columbus after all that's where he got his money

01:20

But the passage never says that he was aiming to

01:22

01:24

They had a unique spicy flavor and we're going to 00:01:27.454 --> [endTime] go have some fun
