There's no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither
apple nor pine in pineapple.

Ever see white eggplants still on the plant? They do look
like "egg plants", they're de-e-licious and they're easier
to digest than regular eggplants.

Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend,...

This one is was written by someone with even less knowledge of English than me (which is very little indeed). The root of amends is amend - a very common word. You can amend something (fix it) or you can make amends (fix multiple things).
