My friends and I performed this for our high school talent show. We didn't have a toaster for the drums though.
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.
For every person that managed to make maple syrup there must be several that made a stew from danger-mushrooms.
Darwinian evolution is as much luck as it is skill
I think there's a lot of "dare you to eat that" in food history.
I think a lot of it boils down to, "we either eat it or starve."
And sometimes both.
Oregano trail wasn't wrong when it made dysentery a near death experience.
There's also a lot of " Tom didn't make it" and "Not gonna do that again" in food history.
Butter was discovered by accident when humans were still nomadic tribes. Milk was transported in animal skin bags and the agitation from travel turned it into butter. Probably being chased by something or running very fast.
It's proposed that cheese was discovered the same way, when the rennet in sheep stomach sacks used to transport milk curdled the milk into curds and whey.
The question remains - how hungry must they have been to still eat that?
As the old saying goes: " 'twas a brave man who first ate an oyster." (Pretty sure this is an Oscar Wilde quote)
A man's gotta eat
Randy, are you prostituting yourself out for sheep stomach cheese again?
They clearly had good cardio if they were agitating it that vigorously for long enough to make butter! Forget fitness watches, maybe I should wear a sack of milk at the gym to see if I’m working hard enough.
Humans literally used to hunt by jogging animals to death. Our ability to sweat was a game changer.
Who though to stab a tree and collect the juice? I want that mf knighted
Right? And trees that leak, like pines, have sap that tastes like absolute ass. You’d think they’d avoid tasting tree sap at all costs
Birch juice though mmmm
blue cheese was discovered from a guy eating lunch in a cave, and leaving it unfinished to go talk to a pretty girl. when he came back months later the cheese had molded into blue cheese and he ate it and it was good
months later
the cheese had molded
he ate it
What a moron.
Just wait until you try doubled fried french fries. It's the only way i eat then now.
Every potato should be cooked twice. It's the correct way
Are triple cooked chips not common knowledge outside of the UK?
The best way I've found to make fries in the oven is to bake them on normal mode for 20-30 minutes, then hit them with convection mode for another 10.
Answer: people said the crust was the best part of the bread. How can we get crust on more of the bread? Slice the bread and bake it again.
And then you have those people who cut the crust off bread.
That proves my point. Do they toast their bread? Do they cut the crust off their toast?
The answer is yes. My kids cut the crust off their toast
I get wanting less crust on your bread, but less crust on your crust?
In Germany we call bland white bread "toast bread" because it can only taste good when toasted.
I also often call it that (I'm Polish-British)

Some sailor that was like for the love of God can I please have ateast one. Biscuit that isn't cooked 7 times. Just cook it once please!
No. Biscuit literally means "twice baked".
So if you only bake it once is it a uniscuit, or just a scuit?
Interesting. Didn't know it meant that but I can see it now..
I'm taking about what a documentary said "hardtack biscuits" that was popular on the old wooden sailing ships.
They even went through a recipe and tried to recreate them. Holy jaw breakers batman
Probably first did it to kill off mold
