Did you know?
Figs are ancient: They are believed to be one of the first domesticated crops, cultivated as far back as 11,000 years ago in the Middle East.
They are an important symbol: Figs appear in many ancient cultures, symbolizing fertility, prosperity, and peace, and were considered sacred by the Egyptians.
Figs aren’t technically fruits: They’re inverted flowers that require a unique pollination process involving fig wasps.
They can ferment quickly: Fresh figs spoil fast and can start fermenting within days if not kept cool.
Fig trees don’t need much soil: They’re known to grow in rocky, poor soil and still produce abundant fruit.
Drawback
High in natural sugars: Figs are sweet and can cause a spike in blood sugar if eaten in large quantities.
Laxative effect: Due to their high fiber content, figs may cause digestive upset or diarrhea when consumed excessively.
Allergic reactions: Fresh figs can cause mouth or skin irritation in some people, especially those sensitive to the enzyme ficin.
