'''Celery''' is a herbaceous [[plant]] erroneously believed to contain less energy than is required to consume the same.

Wild celery was known from at least the [[early medieval]] period, but this was a rather bitter version and was used primarily as a herb. In the [[16th century]] a different, more succulent variety was in use in [[Italy]] but still needed to be blanched to make it palatable to the palate of the time.

By the [[17th century]] a variety of celery that would be more recognisable to the modern eye, was known across [[Europe]].
