You didn't know this…

The baobab is considered the tree of life in Africa. Not only its fruit is consumed, but also its young leaves, which are prepared similarly to spinach. The pulp from the fruit known as "monkey bread" is drained of excess water and mixed with various beverages.

Legend has it that the baobab tree was considered better than other plants. The gods therefore decided to teach it a lesson. They planted it upside down, roots in the air, to teach the tree humility. That is why the plant looks so exotic today.
