How do celery get striped when I put it inside food coloring?
Q. If I cut a slice off the end of each stalk and put it inside each of the blue and red food coloring glasses. Why the next day when I slice the celery crosswide I see the celery striped?
Asked by Deniece - Sat Jan 5 17:49:56 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. the celery has little tubes in it ( the stuff that gets stuck in your teeth) that carries water to the whole plant, so when you put it in food coloring, the color travels up the tubes too :)

Can you give a kitten celery water if they have an upset tummy?
Q. My kitten has an upset tummy and my mom tells me to give her celery waterwhich is something she always gave me and my brother when we had upset tummy's but I'm not sure if a kitten should drink it because i don't know if celery is bad for cats. Can cats drink celery water? Is that ok for them or will it cause any harm?
Asked by Lita Luna - Sat May 30 23:35:31 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The bigger concern is WHY does your kitten have an upset tummy? If you don't fix the WHY then celery water will just be a temporary fix if it works. I don't think celery water will do harm but you really need to figure out why it's tummy hurts. Probiotics (broad spectrum) is VERY helpful for tummy aches and it works almost instantly. Probios is an excellent brand and your feed store should have it or a large animal vet clinic should have some. We keep it on hand ALWAYS and not just for my horse, dog and cats. We use it and MAN this stuff WORKS. But you GOTTA figure out whats making your kitten sick!!!

A. Yes, I have done this, and no, it will not taste bad -- you may want to adjust the herbs and seasoning you use in your recipe...like not putting in any celery, maybe adding a cup or two of mushrooms that have been sliced or diced

How longs could someone survive eating only celery and red peppers?
Q. Obviously I'm not trying this because you need more nutrition in your diet but I was just wondering. What about only on celery? How much weight would you lose?
Asked by smile - Sun Feb 22 14:22:32 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. You actually would die before you lost any appreciable amount of weight. When your nutrition is THAT poor, your body goes into "ultraconservative"mode, and it consumes your own organs and tissues rather than give up it's fat reserves, which it percieves as needing in order to survive on such little nutrient. And, the previous answer is correct -- you can survive for 3-4 weeks on just water. Celery is actually WORSE than just water, because it requires more calories to digest than it gives you, but the only result of that is that you would be completely exhausted for those 3-4 weeks instead of just starving to death.

Is it true that when you eat celery you burn more calories than you consume?
Q. If this is the case, wouldn't eating celery just make you even hungrier? What is the point? Hans- eating anything burns calories. Anything you do burns calories. What I am saying is a stick of celery say has x amount of calories and it takes you y amount of calories to eat and y > x.
Asked by lisa - Thu Jun 26 12:02:37 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Celery has calories, and calories are calories. There is no evidence that eating celery burns calories - although the theory sounds credible. :) It doesn't make you hungrier, because it's full of fiber and water, but not many other nutrients. Notice that it's mostly pale green? The paler the color of a food, the less nutritiously dense it is. So eventually your body would crave the nutrients it needs in the form of carbs and protein. If you ate nothing but celery, yes, you'd be very hungry. :)

A. it would not hurt anything to do this, but it wiould not add any flavor to the bloody mary. the reason i like celery is because as it sits in the bloody mary, it kind of soaks up some of the liquid and flavor. a carrot would not do that.

A. Celery is one that does not freeze well. To keep celery fresher longer keep submerged in water while in the fridge. If you don't want to cut them into snack size lengths just chop off the ends and use a plastic pitcher with a lid, fill with water and put the celery stalks in.

Why does celery at the restaurant tastes better?
Q. Hey everyone. I'm a big chicken wings guy, and as we all know, it comes with celery and blue cheese. I love celery, probably the only vegetable that I like. Whenever I get it at the restaurants it ALWAYS tastes better then the one i buy at the store, no matter how fresh, expensive it might be. Do they do anything special at the restaurant to celery that it tastes so good. Please let me know, maybe someone works at the eatery.
