Paullinia pinnata, commonly known as the Bread and Cheese Plant, is a tropical climbing plant in the Sapindaceae family. The plant produces small, white to yellowish flowers that grow in clusters. The plant is known for its small, capsule-like fruits that contain seeds. When ripe, the fruits can split open to reveal the seeds inside. The name "Bread and Cheese Plant" likely comes from the soft, fleshy texture of the fruit pulp, which can be eaten and has a mild taste.
