Peptides

To my delight I discover that the word, peptides is from the Greek πεπτίδια which means little snacks. There’s something I never knew before. Means nuts, crisps, olives stuffed with little shards of sundried tomato. Peptides means scoobisnacks

I'm curious where you learned that. I thought it was from πεπτός meaning "cooked" or "digested". Altho a related meaning of "snack" doesn't sound too far out.
