I’m fascinated by the existence of so many foods. Who decided to boil tree sap for 3 weeks to make maple syrup? Who agitated cows milk vigorously for 20 minutes to discover butter? Who saw cheese for the first time and decided to still eat moldy milk?

I thank those nameless humans for their service to society.

I think there’s a lot of “dare you to eat that” in food history.
There’s also a lot of " Tom didn’t make it" in history after eating something.
