Found it!

"The Old English word for strawberry is streawberige, and in that language 'strew' and 'straw' were both used to mean 'to spread or scatter'. So, the name likely meant a berry that spreads, which perfectly describes its growth habit. Strawberries spread by horizontal stems called stolons."

Lesson is so boring dang😫

Now I want to make uncarbonated soda.
I love the taste of soda, but it’s undrinkable because of the carbonation.
