  • lol … the story of invention of Worcestershire Sauce

    a bunch of guys were trying to recreate Oriental fish sauce in the UK … the thing they came up with was terrible so they put the barrel of the stuff in the basement and forgot about it

    They went back and rediscovered it a year later and tried it again … they had created Worchestershire sauce

    … the fun part of these stories is that this is all based on survivalship bias … these are all stories of foods that actually turned out. It makes you wonder how many instances there were throughout history of people trying to eat things they thought were unusual or forgotten foods and they tried eating them and it ended up killing them instead.



  • Always love the history of the invention of Cheese

    Some people thought it was a good idea to drink milk from a cow because they saw that babies drank from a mothers breast … why not the cow?

    Then a few hundred years of that, some guy kept a bunch of milk in a goat’s stomach they used as a storage bag … the milk curdled and turned into big solid chunks … hmmmm … might as well try to eat it … what could go wrong? that it might kill me!? hahahahahahaha !!!

    Few hundred years later, a bunch of Europeans kept cheese in a cave and it started to get affected with a mold giving it a series of blue streaks and spots … hey Hans, what happened to the cheese?don’t know, let’s feed to Gunther and see if it kills him
