i love eating egg plant how about you.?
I've only had it a few times, I think it's interesting that eggplant is actually in the nightshade family.
yes Nightshade vegetables belong to the family of plants with the Latin name Solanaceae. Potatoes, tomatoes and eggplants
Interesting! It's very delicate and it's usually cultivated as a tender in temperate climates.
