survive in forest when you have no water.

Bamboo relies on its hollow segments to store water, especially noticeable in young stalks, often found near water sources or following heavy rains. The water naturally filters through the plant's roots and tissues, acquiring a subtly sweet taste and becoming potable. Thanks to the tender nature of young bamboo tissue, it's effortlessly pierced with a knife. Simply create one or two holes, typically at the top and bottom, to savor the refreshing liquid within.
