Dole first sold pineapple juice. The company began marketing canned pineapple juice in 1933, capitalizing on the popularity of their pineapple products and establishing it as the first juice in their product line.

Linseed oil, also known as flaxseed oil or flax oil (in its edible form), is a colorless to yellowish oil obtained from the dried, ripened seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum). The oil is obtained by pressing, sometimes followed by solvent extraction.

Venus has the longest day in our solar system, with a single rotation taking 243 Earth days. Due to its extremely slow, backward (retrograde) rotation, a day on Venus (243 Earth days) is actually longer than its year (225 Earth days).

Denim originated in Nîmes, France, during the 17th century. Local weavers attempting to reproduce a sturdy Italian fabric (serge de Nîmes) accidentally created a durable twill blend, which became known as "denim" (or serge de Nîmes). It was designed as a durable, indigo-dyed work fabric.

A Midsummer Night's Dream takes place in and around the city of Athens, Greece. The plot alternates between the city, representing law and order under Duke Theseus, and a nearby enchanted forest, which serves as a chaotic, magical setting for the fairies and the misguided lovers.
