“Artichoke hearts imply the existence of artichoke atria and artichoke ventricles”

Artichokes have nothing to do with the Arctic or Antarctica, but there are jokes. Some jokes involve the cold-water fish Arctic char.

I had planned to rotate out a variety of vegetable puns this year ( I started with ‘antarctichoke’ ) but everyone seems to love this one, so I’m keeping it.

Artichokes are only grown in the northern hemisphere. Otherwise they’re known as Antartichokes.
