  • The average strawberry has 200 seeds.
  • Strawberries are grown in every single U.S. state and Canadian province.
  • Strawberries aren’t true berries. Technically a berry has its seeds on the inside. Botanists actually consider each seed on the strawberry to be its own separate fruit. What?!?
