Tulip

The Tulip Bun Foot was so named, quite obviously, because of its resemblance to the tulip flower. As most of us know, the tulip is a Dutch flower found originally in Holland. But actually we would be wrong. Did you know that the tulip actually first popped out of the ground in Iran and Afghanistan? And what's more shocking is that the original word for 'tulip' in the Persian language is the same word as the Persian word for 'turban'. It is thought that the spirals of the tulip flower inspired the Persians to offer that same title to the beautiful flower that we call the tulip.
