I wonder if raising pigs on fennel and leeks would simplify the sausage making.

I love OP ❤️

Also, I've always wondered who first decided to eat an artichoke. They must have been very hungry to try it.

Turnips
Leeks
Fennel


Your knowledge of "food history" is pretty lacking.

I would say artichokes but the industrial cutting and packing of them make them quite easy to consume and delicious.

No way if I had to chop them myself.
