Fun Fact Friday (#41)




Fun Fact Friday is a meme hosted by Lettora at I’m Booked! If you’d like to join and do your own Fun Fact Friday, just ask! At I’m Booked! Every week we’ll give you five new, fun facts.
This week’s five facts:

1.  Women live longer than men partly because their immune systems age more slowly.

2.  The day after tomorrow is called "Overmorrow."

3.  Wasabi was originally used to kill bacteria.


4.  About a quarter of the world's hazelnuts, 100,000 tons a year, are used to make Nutella.

5.  The word hundred is derived from the word "hundrath", which actually means 120 and not 100.
