Food Trivia

The warriors of Attila, king of the Huns, (A.D. 450) preserved their meat by placing fresh meat under their saddles. All the bouncing squeezed fluids from the meat, and the horse's sweat salted the meat and removed more moisture. When the warrior stopped to eat, they had a dried and salted meal.

Food Joke

A snail is on the bar one Christmas, and asks the barman "Excuse me, can I have a pint of beer please?". The barman says "You WHAT?". "May I have a pint of beer, please?" repeats the snail. "Don't be so stupid, snails don't drink beer" snarls the bar man and sweeps the snail off the bar on to the floor. The following Christmas, in the same bar, a snail appears on the counter. The barman asks "What do you want?", whereupon the snail shouts "What did you do THAT for?"
