The Mildly Interesting community is quite legendary at this point. With its 24 million members and almost 13 years under its belt, they're clearly doing something right. Or perhaps they just hit the internet jackpot: people don't want to be wowed all the time, they don't want superlatives.

Sometimes, somewhere in between exciting and boring is just as good. Still, it's interesting to explore how these things happen, so, let's go through some of these mildly interesting objects together in no particular order, shall we?

One of the mildly interesting pics from the group is the bell pepper with a bunch of baby peppers inside it. It's not unusual for peppers to have little carbon copies inside them. That's called "internal proliferation." This usually happens inside ripe or overripe bell peppers but is most prominent in the ones that have been picked unripe and ripened artificially with ethylene gas.

The baby pepper is edible and should taste the same as its mama. And peppers aren't the only victims of internal proliferation. This can happen to other fruits and vegetables as well, such as tomatoes, eggplants, oranges, and many others.

How about that picture of the gorgeous Atlas moth? They're one of the biggest insects in the world, their wingspan stretching to 27 centimeters (nine inches) across. Their caterpillars are very hungry (probably due to their size) and spend almost their every waking second eating, but the moths themselves don't feed at all after emerging from the cocoon.

Cats might undergo a change in the color of their fur as they grow into adulthood, did you know that? And no, it's not because they're getting old and grey. Some breeds, like the Himalayan, Siamese, and Burmese might have a genetic mutation that makes their fur darken in the winter months when there is less sun exposure. 

This person found a tiny pearl in an oyster they were eating. Experts estimate that the chances of that happening are one in 10,000. And even if you find a pearl in your dinner the next time you eat a mollusk, it's unlikely it'll have any monetary value. Most pearls people have found in food are too tiny to be worth a fortune.

I don't know about you, but I'd file the bathrooms at Mammoth Cave National Park under something more than mildly interesting. The national park is home to the largest-known cave system in the world and has over 600,000 visitors every year. The tile work in the bathroom complements the natural rock surface of the cave beautifully, and the bathroom itself is 275 feet below the ground.

One Redditor shared an interesting beverage: a foam beer they got served in Japan. That's actually a thing from the Czech Republic, which people refer to as "milk." Don't worry, there's no dairy in it; it's just a technique of pouring beer. You're supposed to drink it quickly before it melts back into ordinary beer. People says it tastes sweet and creamy, but I'll have to get back to you with that one once I try it myself.

The Mildly Interesting subreddit also sees some disasters from time to time, like this leaking Himalayan salt lamp. It's actually pretty normal for these lamps to leak water. Salt lamps draw moisture from the air, and if they're in very humid environments, they will eventually leak. In some cases, a leaking Himalayan salt lamp is a sign of authenticity!

This person had their house burn down, but the American cheese in the fridge, apparently, made it out just fine. People like to say that it's because of plastic or some mysterious chemicals in it, but Kraft claimed it's because their cheese only melts at lower temperatures. That's because of the emulsifiers which they use to bind the proteins and the fat in the cheese.
