Curious thing: the kiwi fruit came from China to New Zealand.

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 10 points 11 months ago (3 children)

For that matter where the hell is Old Zealand?

[–] pleb_maximus@feddit.de 15 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

The Netherlands.

Edit: No, I was thinking of Zeeland. Zealand apparently is the English name for a Danish island.

Edit 2: While getting a pizza I wondered why the hell the English would call a place after a Danish island. So my first comment was correct after all. The Dutch named it after Zeeland.

A rollercoaster of discovery.

[–] pleb_maximus@feddit.de 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And I let y'all participate with that rollercoaster ride.

[–] DacoTaco@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And we learned from that rollercoaster ride

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Possibly even made friends along the way?

[–] DacoTaco@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Whoa, chill. We havent even had dinner yet !

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

Story of my life

[–] registrert@lemmy.sambands.net 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] pleb_maximus@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Haha, yes. But with that I at least knew that it is on an old British sea fort from WWII. So that can't be the reason for New Zealands name.

[–] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

not with that attitude!

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I wrote that? Shit. My mistake.

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

No, you didn't, but it made me wonder if there's a new one where the old one is. Another person answered.
