LEARN AND EARN CONTEST ENTRY:E- EGGPLANT

Do you know that eggplant (specie -garden egg) is said to represent fertility and blessings, that is why it is commonly shared in wedding ceremonies in some communities across African continent.
I bought some for myself at the market today and I've already eaten more than half of it before I remember snapping it
You can see how small it is

It is a member of aubergine family and it has different shapes, sizes and colors e.g green, white, pink, purple etc.
You can eat it raw or use it in your cooking.
