What does CELERY mean in Scrabble?

A crisp, pale green vegetable whose long ribbed stalks are eaten raw or cooked.
Celery is a marshland plant of the parsley family, grown mainly for its juicy stalks, though the leaves and seeds are also used for flavour. It is a standard ingredient in stocks, soups and stuffings, and it is eaten raw with dips or in salads. A single stalk is often called a stick or rib in cooking. The name came into English from French and Italian forms of an old word for parsley.
