For all food lovers who like to know about the timeline of food discoveries here is a great website www.foodtimeline.org. This website is deceptively bland to look at but it details the amazing evolution of food; how trade, politics, wars, migration and pop culture influenced and continue to influence the food we eat and serve our loved ones. When you eat a hamburger you think of an all American dish, summer barbecues, maybe that McDonald you ate and feel guilty about … hamburger dates back to the 13th Century and its lineage has Mongols and Germans? Who said food is something you just eat???
