All About Male And Female Bell Peppers Myth: Is It The Truth?

If you’re a gardener or a cook you must have come across the claim that you can tell the gender of a bell pepper by the counting the number of bumps or lobes at the bottom of the fruit. It is not a trivial thing to encounter especially since every now and then some blog post or article starts talking about how you can discriminate and differentiate between male and female bell peppers.

It’s a curious thing to discover on the internet, and to get to the bottom of it, I decided to find out for myself if there is any truth to this theory.

My question was simple – what is the reasoning behind the male and female bell peppers theory? What I found was that the gender myth was completely false and has no scientific or botanical backing whatsoever. Exactly how can one simply count the number of lobes on bell peppers and determine its sweetness is beyond my conception.

Aren’t we forgetting a basic piece of information – that some plants, like bell peppers, are bisexual and that there is no way to say that one is male and the other female?

There is a lot of misconception surrounding the gender theory regarding peppers. To think that vegetables have gender may seem a little preposterous. The flower, and not the fruit, of a plant have sexual organs. So where does this theory come from? Let’s find out and put an end to this recurring myth once and for all.

After you are done reading this article, I can assure you that you will never give in to misinformation of this sort that seeks to misguide people.
