Coffee has initially been a food – chewed, not sipped. Early African tribes consume coffee by grinding the berries together, adding some animal fat, and rolling the treats into tiny edible energy balls.
En`do*rhi"za, n.; pl. Endorhizæ. Etym: [NL., fr. Gr. (Bot.)
Definition: Any monocotyledonous plant; -- so named because many monocotyledons have an endorhizal embryo.
Note: Endorhiza was proposed by Richard as a substitute for the term endogen, and exorhiza as a substitute for the term exogen; but they have not been generally adopted.
