Dishes That Are Much Older Than We Realized 

If it ain’t broke…

right? its funny how bad of a source of info these videos are.

Lol this was def written by a white person

Right? I was like, "What do you mean WAS made with masa?"🤨

She actually says "something called masa" as though nobody has ever heard of it nowadays Nobody noticed the crappy bud at 6:46?

Well, honey actually can go bad. Granted, it is estimated you might have to wait for 100,000 or so years for that to transpire. So, on a practical level it is a food that will not spoil, but it actually can because nothing is truly immune to the passage of time and entropy.

@@derekstein6193 I mean, if we are going with pedantry, then yes; honey can go bad. Also, anyone saying the world is not going to end is wrong, because it will be engulfed by the sun. Of course, it won't be in any of our lifetimes, but it'll still happen.

and chinese eat them

We're animals though. Maybe other animals watched us eating honey.

@@alukuhito it’s more likely that we saw them. Other mammals have been enjoying honey before humans even existed 💀

@@tonybehere7792 Good point. Honeybees and honey had been around for millions of years before humans.

Our ancestors were probably foraging honey when they were still tree dwellers.

Yep, things like honey, eggs, etc we probably ate since before we came down out of the trees. It's things like figuring out which bits of pufferfish aren't poisonous that baffles me. ("Everyone who's ever eaten this thing died. Maybe if I only eat this bit..."). My personal theory involves a bored nobleman and a crap load of dead peasants.

No. YOu should. Make your own video.

They ground it into flour

Kennel falls into fire and goes pop

It is the oldest. There is tons of evidence of early humans eating honey from beehives. This video has some terrible info.

It doesn't help we are basing it on honey we found to be in containers. Honey has a natural container which probably was used much earlier in history before we moved it to pots for large scale storage.

If you want to get technical, the oldest honey came along 120 million years ago when the bee evolved. Next time you put some honey in your tea, you're sharing part of a culinary tradition with the dinosaurs.

Chimps collect honey today. So I'm pretty sure humans have been eating it since before we evolved into being human.

No. Actually humans started settling in slowly, over hundreds of years. There were a lot of downsides to doing it too fast, so they would come to places they knew to have the cereals they wanted to make bread and beer. And actually, the video is wrong. Beer is older than bread apparently. We discovered it quite recently, but beer could actually be the reason we settled down in the first place.

Calm down Hancock

It also isn't one way street. Some communities would try agriculture then ditch it and go back to a more nomadic life style. Imagine doing agriculture without any large tools or domesticated animals! It was a really hard lifestyle. But yeah, I think its possible that humans have been engaging in agriculture for longer than expected, but then its also possible that we have been baking bread for longer than expected. After all we've been using fire to cook our food for tens of thousands, maybe even over 100,000 years!

@@hugolouessard3914 I highly doubt an entire group of humans decided to change their entire way of life and damn near everything that is familiar to them and their entire culture over a piece of food or drink. It's far more likely that the advantages of always knowing where your food is at, what has happened to it, how much of it you have, how much of it you need to supplement with hunting/foraging, and being able to manipulate many of those factors became obvious and likely paid immediate dividends

@@hugolouessard3914 Thus making the roots of alcoholism much longer, too.

Noob, you should see what’s under my old *ss sofa, you can probably find pizza from ancient Mexico.

Speak for yourself 😂 sounds like U need a cleaning Sunday!!!

I love that!

That's a brilliant idea.

WWII School lunches in the US must’ve been interesting thanks to rationing/shortages 😮

In the UK free school dinners dinners were brought in after the 2nd Boer War as many recruits were found to be malnourished. The law was enacted just in time to feed up the future Tommy's of WW1. I'm old enough to have got free school dinners (they were really nice) but "Maggie Thatcher, Milk Snatcher" ended our free school milk when she was Education Secretary.

naw, punishment is soggy cornflakes, hands down

In my country, when I was young, mothers would sometimes bake mixed cereal in the oven with salt and spices. It was such a good snack.

Exactly what I was thinking when I heard that. All tamales are still made that way. Jesus, there better not be any other d*mb industrialized way of doing it with pre-made flour dough in order to save time and money. The only way to make tamales is with corn masa. But watch there be some fool that makes it with pre-made flour dough - similar to what these American fools have done with our precious tacos and that nasty flour stingy tortilla shell.

"Filled with masa"

In China, they use dog milk. Not joking.

Goats, and horses surprisingly. I believe one of the food history channels points out that Mongolians during Ghengis Khan’s time were using milk from their horses, though I could be wrong about that >.

In India at least 5000-1000 yrs ago.

ages? what past couple hundred years of well recorded history? lmfao

Through the ages? You mean the last 160 years?

The history can be summed up as genocide maskerading as a dinner party and falls in the long trend of piping hot levels of historical revision being served American children as "history". Followed by the main course of "did you ever ask yourself why the roughly 100 years between the end of the civil war and the civil rights movement of the mid-20th century are just skipped in education like nothing ever happened?" Optional dessert is "Let's not even imagine what the German equivalent to this approach to teaching history would be" Depending on your personal palette this might either result in vicariously vomitting, or falling into a sweetly ignorant food coma.

@@ledzepgirl92 😂😂😂

@@ledzepgirl92 interesting, I assume it depends on school and stuff, but my history classes hit pretty hard on the American Industrial Revolution. Obviously i'm sure there gaps and stuff that wasn't taught or incorrect, but I wouldn't say it it was skipped.

Why the f*ck would it take "a bunch" of Irishmen to put 10 lb of butter in a Bog? Smh. No common sense.

You'd be surprised, lots of people eat pancakes for Christmas morning breakfast :) and to be festive, add red and green M & M's :D

Really? That would be a typical Christmas breakfast for me growing up. Not Betty Crocker though. We made them from scratch.

It doesn't feel recent to me. You're weird.

​@@alukuhitoif you rely on your feelings for factual knowledge you are a deep shit, my friend 🤦‍♀️

The body was on the border between the two countries. Was a bit of an "ownership" issue then I think they co-operated.

​@@markcarey8426 I thought he'd ended up - initially - in Vienna because they had the better equipment available. But my curiosity re Italians in Innsbruck brought me here. Good answer though. Makes sense!

That's a blast from the past. I used to eat those all the time in the 90s.

Also a beehive smells fantastically delicious, and the smell is very strong. One smell and you know you have to try some.

I doubt it. Why do you say "definitely" when you don't even know? Grow up.

Nah, our pre-human ancestors would have already been foraging for honey long before modern humans came about.

To be fair, the Iceman was found in an area near Tisenjoch on the border between Austria and Italy, so I won’t fault them that much.

Somebody probably just tasted some honey that had dripped out of a hive.

@@ChadwickTheChad Yeah, and then he wanted seconds.

Probably saw a bear dig into a hive then ate what was left.

They were the GOAT.

We probably learned it from honey badgers.

I concur indubitably

Wet cereal!!

I heard this story too. I read it in a childrens book about Egypt back in the 90s

That's hilarious!

Honey guides and honey badgers have likely teamed up on hives longer than humans and guides.

​@@TrineDaely "honey guides" sounds like something out of a Hunger Games book 😊

Chimps gather honey. We've probably been eating it since before we were human.

Man, that is such a limited reference to use, to illustrate human experience. People get a little bit of knowledge and want to expound as though they had the last word and are vastly expert - when in truth their knowledge is glancing and rudimentary. It is surreal to see those with no practical experience in the physical world, and almost as little in academics - who've never had to learn common sense in striving for survival, or live in a dirty, comfortless, brutal environment, expound on why people acted as they did, back in the day. Smh.

That's exactly what I've been thinking!

Annnnd now I want kimchi and dill pickles

There is no reason that people would have gathered corn and brought it home to the hearth unless they were already planning to eat it - and that doesn't require fire. Fresh corn is the best eating, when it's still juicy and sweet! On a constant lookout for food, if folks see something that looks good, they're going to experiment with it, tasting, watching for adverse effects. Learning that corn can pop would come later, as it was commonly held & utilized.

I still think it's criminal the people who eat it with water instead of milk, like I wanna shout "WHAT IS YOUR MAJOR MALFUNCTION?!" lmfao.

Spaghetti are noodles, but not all noodles are spaghetti.

@@ridureyu Ingredients wise, no.... The main ingredient of spaghetti is wheat flour, but noodles can contain different types of ingredients such as rice starch, rice flour, potato starch and Canna starch. High quality spaghetti is prepared of durum wheat.

@@Tactical_Hotdog yes, noodles can contain many types of flour, from rice to wheat. But ultimately, they are all Squiggly Bread.
