The Very Hungry Caterpillar's Fruit Count
■■■■■
The Very Hungry Caterpillar's voracious appetite for different fruits is a beloved sequence, but the exact number of fruits eaten on Saturday is often misremembered.
●
What People Remember
Many remember the hungry caterpillar eating a much simpler or fewer number of fruits on Saturday, or a different variety.
◉
What's Actually True
On Saturday, the Very Hungry Caterpillar eats one piece of chocolate cake, one ice-cream cone, one pickle, one slice of Swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake, and one slice of watermelon – a much longer and more varied list than typically recalled.
