Why are Cashew Nuts so Expensive ?

                 # How does a nut say good bye to another nut? I'll Cashew (catch you) later bro.                 # I'm releasing a new line of sleep πŸ€ͺ  aids featuring melatonin-infused almonds, cashews, and pistachios. Here are Doze (those) nuts. Come Lets Crack open the Costly Mystery ? Cashews can cost you from 500 to 1000 for 1 kg of gently curved crescent πŸŒ™ moon with a tint of golden hue powered by a buttery aroma and a nutty, velvety culinary treat to the taste buds. 1) The extraction process is labor intensive and hazardous as the cashew shell secretes a harmful, toxic oil containing "Anacardic acid" , hence labour should be provided with protective equipment. 2) Cashews being a popular nutritional delicacy its demand has been steeply increasing but supply could meet the global expectation thereby shooting its price. 3) Cashews are not efficient but lack productivity and yield. A cashew fruit produces one cashew seed every 2-3 months. So Whether it is Salted

Why is palm oil so cheap ?

               A fitness freak asked for some fat free 🍟 fries and the waiter gave him regular french fries.😲 Man was shocked and said " It has oil dripping , I asked you fat free fries ". The waiter replied " We charge only for the fries not for the fat ".πŸ˜‚ From 5 star to Maggi, Shampoo to bread........Its everywhere and we drink ( consume ) a lot literally 8 L every year. 😱 Come Lets find Why palm oil is sooo CHEAPP ??  1) These Palm trees are so adaptable and resilient...They just grow all round the year and in literally any soil.  2) Palm trees is so efficient and productive thereby significantly reduction production cost.  3) Palm oil production is concentrated in the Southeast Asia mainly Malaysia and Indonesia - places where labor costs are very lowπŸ‘‡. Sadly Palm oil is in that good for the Nature....Its production has led to large scale deforestation, hence accelerating CO2 emissions. So whether palm oil is cheap or tasty it is expensive in nature's

Why we feel Dizzy under the Sun ?

Which is faster, heat or cold? Heat, because you can catch a cold!πŸ˜… Come Lets Discover the reality of ☀  Sun sucking the energy from us...... During hot summers , when the temperature rises the blood vessels dilate to increase blood flow. As Skin is primary place of sweating out most of the blood is directed there and hence other organs like Brain 🧠 face starvation hence confusing them and become 😡 dizzy. Excessive sweating leads to decrease in waterπŸ’¦ content in blood and thereby less blood volume continuing the vicious 🚴 cycle. How prevent a Heatstroke ??  1) Gulp in a Pomegranate or any juice πŸ₯€as soon as possible.   2) Stay Hydrated and move to shady place and cool your skin  (Cold Shower) as soon as possible.  3) Avoid prime Sun time like the "NOON".  4) Avoid doing any sort of work - as it can worsen your condition. So whether its hotπŸ”₯  , hotter πŸ”₯ πŸ”₯  or hottest πŸ”₯ πŸ”₯ πŸ”₯this is Sun's Masterstroke.

Why do we forget the dream so soon ?

  I have decided to pursue my engineering dreams......GOOD πŸŒƒ Night.πŸ˜…  Come Lets discover the Forgetful character of DREAM.... Sleep has 2 main phases - Non Rapid Eye Movement Sleep & Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep which continuously cycle 🚴. Memory saving is done by neurons stimulated by "Norepinephrine" which is hormone which causes binding of information on a specific location in the 🧠 brain. Dreams usually arise in the REM sleep, which have low levels of norepinephrine......reducing the memories of your πŸ€ͺ crazy dreams. The bizarre content of dreams without any structure or coherence also makes it difficult to consolidate it. So whether it is a dream or reality you would forget it one day in πŸ§“ old age.

Why Wet Clothes look Dark ?

                                  When I was in college, I used to do my roommate's laundry, and he used to do mine. I guess we both were maid for each other.πŸ˜… Come lets Find the Science behind Dark Mystery of Wet clothes... We see color because of reflection and absorption of light. If a cloth absorbs all colors except blue then it would be blue in color. In wet clothes on a microscopic level a thin layer of water πŸ’¦  is formed which causes light to undergo Internal Reflection, Refraction and more Absorption thereby decreasing the amount of light. So whether it is a expensive coatπŸ§₯ or a night πŸ‘— things become dark after a drop of water.

Why isn't the keyboard in alphabetical order?

                  I decided to take the really big key off my keyboard and throw it away. It’s a waste of space.πŸ˜… Come lets find why ⌨️ keyboards have a weird design... Once upon a time there lived a crow....Sorry-Once upon a time , people typed so fast in the mechanical keyboards that it got jammed..old machines were old in technology so a guy called Sholes came and designed it in such a way that it would be hard to type.This Layout is called " QWERTY ".This Layout crept into the Computer keyboards too. #FUN-FACT : This the first 6 letters of the top line row. But Slowly the pattern became a convention and no one wanted to turn it back on the large scale though there is a layout called "DVORAK" which is experimentally ergonomic. So whether it is a qwerty or a quirky keyboard what is there is all 26 πŸ”  letters.

Why People become Bald ?

             Why are bald people very easily manipulated by a shower? B ecause when they take a bath, they get brainwashed!πŸ˜… Come Lets Find Why Hair's relationship with The skull πŸ’€ declines with age. The main criminal for Male Baldness is "Di-Hydro-Testosterone" ( DHT ) including Genetic disorders ( I think πŸ’¬ if we inherit the land and the wealth πŸ€‘ of our father and grandfather we should also inherit their diseases right ? ) . During the πŸ“ˆ growth of the skull and the πŸ’ͺ muscles in the forehead and neck , which leads to increase in tension in a tight band of tissue stretching over the top of the head. The more DHT there is, the more these muscles contract, which causes inflammation and brings in more DHT causing hair loss. DHT also has a direct control over the thickness of hair and effect on the development of hair follicles. So whether it is a 18 year Teenager or a 65 year Grandfather DHT is killing your hair...

Apple's Secret to Trillion dollar πŸ’΅ Company

  I just saw a customer rob an Apple store.Strange. It’s usually the other way around.Hope we have i-Witness for the rescue.πŸ˜… Come Lets discover the strategies Apple 🍎 uses to sell a iPhone for double the price... @1 Apple has nearly 45% profit margin on iPhones 1) Endowment Effect           Macbooks and iPads are tilted precisely at 76° far from viewing angle which calls for an adjustment in angle.This touch of us on a product makes it more probable for us to buy it. 2) Apple's store is designed in a well thought layout in a seducing way to allure you into their ecosystem. You don't need to wait on a queue! 3) They reworded Technical desk to " Genius Bar ".Genius conveying expertise and bar instead of desk signalling a sense of ease. 4) There are literally no price labels !!

Why coloured soaps produce white foams ?

          W hat did the soap say to the hands as they were being washed?   I think we're in sink ( sync )...πŸ˜… From Green πŸ’š Dettol , Yellow πŸ’› Santoor, Black πŸ–€ Cinthol , White 🀍 Dove to even Transparent Pears every soap 🧼 gives  white foam.... Come Lets find the white mystery of soap. Soaps mix with air and water πŸ’¦ while washing which results in formation of bubbles  πŸ’­ or lather. Only a ultra thin layer of soap which has micro amount of colourant gets involved.....and when natural white light πŸ•―️ attacks the bubble leading to continuous scattering.Hence colours are ineffective to bubbles. #If soap lather is kept in a monochromatic red ♥️ or blue πŸ’™ light the bubble will appear red or blue.. So whether your soap kills 99% or 99.999% your soap will produce only white foam.

Why do EAGLES πŸ¦… fly in circles ?

                                                                             What do you call a migrating Eagle ? An ill-eagle (illegal) immigrant...πŸ˜… Come lets find why Eagles like circles and not squares ⬜.         Air is made of molecules which expand on Sun's heating and contract on cooling. Like a coin (high density) even cold ❄ air sinks down in the atmosphere. This air flow πŸ‘† up and πŸ‘‡ down leads to formation of Thermal Column.... Basically a circular flow of hot air. This Thermal columns help Eagles to fly in circles without waving their wings. Prey Scanning , Territory making and Mating dispalys are also some reasons why they fly in ⭕ circles. So whether it is a Bald Eagle with no hair or the rich Golden Eagle they all fly in circles.

Why Old Books πŸ“š smell good ?

                           Do you know Why Old books go to Therapy ? Because they have a lot of unresolved "twists" in their back πŸ”™ . πŸ˜… Come Lets find why old books have a enigmatic fragrance. Trees 🌴 = PaperπŸ“„.....Paper is made of wood pulp which contains a compound " Lignin " , a complex organic polymer. Lignin reacts with oxygen to become tinted with yellow color. When Sunlight and Heat πŸ”₯ react with this Yellow paper to form "VOC" or Volatile Organic Compounds ( Basically Good Smelling gases ). So whether it is a newspaper or a 12 th grade Maths Book πŸ“™ Smell is more important than what is inside !!

Why do Bullet make "DUBU DUBU" sound πŸ”Š?

                         KTM , YAMAHA , PULSAR have big names but Royal Enfield is the King πŸ‘‘ and everyone's dream like an Apple 🍏 product. Come Lets Unveil the Fantastic Acoustic Phenomenon.... Royal Enfield bikes have "Long Stroke Engines" which are the major reason for the characteristic vintage appeal.                                                             Lets Understand Engine before diving deep.... Recent Engines are mostly 4 stroke Engine or have 4 steps in the process of combustion.  1) The Piston move downwards πŸ‘‡and the fuel + air mixture in ejected into the combustion chamber. 2) Piston moves upwards πŸ‘† and squeezes the fuel ⛽ to create a high pressure. 3) The Spark plug gives a spark ✨ . 4) The Fuel mixture turns into fireπŸ”₯ thereby empowering the Bike. This gas escapes through the exhaust or the silencer. In most of the bikes like Pulsar = the height of the stroke is less than the diameter of the bore. But Royal Enfield has a Larger Stroke in comparis

Why do we get a good feel πŸ˜‡ while scratching ?

When Itching starts, so does Scratching also...... That feel of scratching a mosquito bite is so blissful !! Come lets find the Science behind "Scratching Pleasure 😊 " When you scratch the skin , the "pruriceptors" ( a fancy name to itch receptor ) send signals to the brain to release two hormones Serotonin and Dopamine which are responsible for the feel of "SATISFACTION". The increased blood 🩸flow and psychological relief also contributes to the soothing feeling... So whether it is ant or a mosquito it is scratch which feels good.
