thoughts on the medieval times feast
is breddy gud
>>21942538it's gay. you're gay.
>>21942538corn? in a medieval plate? I'm beyond disgusted by the lack of historical accuracy
>>21942538Ah yes who can forget the famous medieval garlic texas toast
>>21942538Corn and potatoes are from the Americas, so they didn't have them in medieval Europe
>>21942538It's delicious and the entertainment is top tier.>inb4 wah wah Medieval Times Dinner Tournament doesn't actually take place in medieval times
>>21942538Kino. Wish we had this in Britain.
"they didnt have pepsi, but they had garlic bread?"
>>21942538Looks yummy! I don't see a point in showing to accuracy there, the best part is the show right? They just need to enhance the show with decent grub, and medieval grub is not decent
>>21942550yeah and wtf, is that tomato soup?
fun fax: Medœval Times is the top breeder of thoroughbred Andalusian horses in the hemisphere. the quality of their horses and the training and horsemanship is top notch. yes the actual combat is choreographed but at least it's show where literally everything else is legit, including a falcon
>>21942595>people pay hundreds of dollars to go eat chicken in a horse barn
>>21942598it's like $70 for a 3-course meal and 2 hours of live entertainment. it's a pretty good way to spend the money if you're looking for something to do
>>21942538wear it loud and proud bro
when i was a kid my grandma took me and my brothers and we got wooden swordsi ended up breaking mine on my brother's back
>>21942609This entire post reeks of pedophilia.
>>21942609I'm sure he deserfed it
>>21942614unbased retard that can't spell
>>21942615you missed my pun
>>21942617No I didn't. I just didn't acknowledge it which is what you really wanted.
>>21942538medieval times is dumb but I like it
>>21942630lol so that makes you dumb, dummy
>>21942613This post reeks of coomer brain
>>21942613You mean >>21942613?Yes it definitely does.
Okay I gotta drop this gem from a few years ago on /diy/
>>21942626so you knew my spelling was deliberate but also said my spelling was accidental? what a gong farmer.
>>21942613hope the FBI gets your IPgot a good feeling you're one of them
>>21942655I'm glad that even one of the normie boards on 4chan can produce gold like this
>>21942681good luck pussy. i'm behind multiple proxies.
>>21942538>qr code on dinner matExperience ruined
>>21942685It's not multiple in the old meme, it's exactly seven.
>>21942595Thats actually pretty cool. You go to some place like that it better be a good performance. Thats the whole fucking point lol.
It was ok, the tomato soup my waitress called it blood soup and told my ex’s kids thsts what the knights drink to get strong.I almost got kicked out too for banging on the glass and calling the opposing teams knights fags.
>>21942613End it today.Tomorrow would be another failure.
>>21942538>Corn>Medieval Europe
>>21942938and>potatoand>tomatoand>bebsicola
>>21942538i dont think they had garlic bread back then
>>21943009I'm not sure about garlic bread as we know it, but they had bread, butter, and garlic was ubiquitous amongst the pæsantry. surely will all available elements someone must have been eating garlic bread
>>21942655Holy fuck lmao. I pray the "I'm the seller" post is real.
>>21942538i went here once on a field trip in middle school back in the 90s. it was pretty based
>>21943015They ate garlic bread to ward off vampyres
>>21943115And it worked
>>21943117I eat garlic all the time and I've never been bitten by a vampire.
>>21943125BECAUSE IT WORKED
>>21942542Calm down and have some of your medieval pepsi
>>21942538Portion is a bit small. Two pieces of bread, handful of corn and a chicken (?) leg.>>21942697LolI thought it was a sauce. I wouldn't be surprised if the blood soup thing was true, although I've never heard about it being associated with knights in particular.
>>21943183It's a quarter chicken are you blind
>>21943183Blood soup looks brown or black, not red.And it was a poor people's meal, rather than a rich ones.
>>21942538i love eating while smelling horse barn.
>>21942603>a pretty good way to spend the money if you're looking for something to donope.just buy $50 worth of meat and grill it while drinking $20 worth of beer.
>>21942554I love it but it's so god damn expensive now
The one in New Jersey all the knights are Mexican it's pretty funny.
I met a British girl through gaming and we became friends and she came and visited and I took her to Medieval Times and she loved it and got really into it and wished they had it in the UK
>>21942538Pretty sure the corn and tomato soup wasn't a thing medieval Europe.
>>21943334Why are you retards not ok with that but are ok with Pepsi being served?
>>21943330Thats cool. Are you guys still friends?
>>21943340We still game together and I visited her once too and she has been back. Yes we fucked obviously and I could easily date her but she has no interest moving here and I am not moving to 3rd world hellscape London
>>21943319>$50 worth of grilling meat and $20 worth of beerso one good steak and half a six pack?
>>21943346does her weight in pounds start with a number higher than 1?
>>21943194It wasnt bad desu, the ride home sucked, they kept saying how i embarrassed them and ruined the day
>>21942542You missed the potato too bro
>>21942595There was a jousting reality show called ‘Full Metal Jousting’ a few years ago and a couple of the contestants were Medieval Times jousters. Good show if you can find it, definitely worth a watch.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_Metal_Jousting
>>21942538Where's the utensils?
>>21942595How much if I want to eat the champion horse?
>>21942542I mentioned this, along with the tomatoes in the soup and the potatoes, and I was called autistic.
>>21944062Dude they fucking sell swords with lights and sounds and shit, it’s not authentic anymore
>>21944042gonna have to start one up in Mexico or Italy
>>21942549>ignores multiple new world crop based components of the meal>waahh a thick slice of bread with butter and garlic is so unrealisticNigga you’re retarded and also the garlic Texas toast is the best part of the meal
>>21943346what shithole flyoverville are you from?
>>21944309>niggaFucking shudder
>>21942655>payedEveryone involved in this story deserves whatever bad things came to them.
>>21942542>read Bible>get to Leviticus>corn was offered as sacrifice>close Bibleit really do be like that tho
>>21943095It is real, he was fucking mad when we started making fun of him.
>>21945162ny
>>21945986Wait until you find out that corn has multiple meanings.
>>21943319What's the live entertainment though?
>>21945986Corn used to mean "grain." The English Corn Laws were about wheat, oats and barley. The term was applied to maize in America. In theory, rice could be called corn in Asia.
>>21942655kek
>>21942538where are the spoon and fork?
>>21942542They didn’t have turkeys or tomatoes either
>>21946019It is a combination of jealousy and relief when I see corrections made by other pedants.
>>21946049but they don't serve turkey anonhttps://youtu.be/ZRqLMzX1bu0?si=-LUtRxztLdjqwdHR
>>21946141Many people confuse the Renaissance Fair with Medieval Times. Both historical periods were a long time ago so they are basically the same thing in many peoples minds
>>21946013This guy and the Frugal Gourmet would have been good friends. Very, very good friends.
>>21946181mm smoke turkey legs are delicious but not aw-ten-teek to either time period. they are classic fair/e food though so it's totally permissible
>>21946243Turkeys were introduced to Europe in the early 16th century, likely between 1511 and 1519. The Renaissance was at its peak was between 1490 and 1530. The introduction of Turkey to Europe led to the demise of the Renaissance. People began to value food more than art. Soon people wanted spices and foreign lands were invaded for their tasty spices. People began kidnapping Africans in exchange for spices. Women soon got a lot more whoreish
>>21946285>Turkeys were introduced to Europe in the early 16th centurydon't you mean "Turks"?
a pepsi would go well with it
>>21942556We do, all over the place.
>>21945986Once again those that have not broken ways with the Jewish testament and solely embraced our lord Jesus Christ, son of God, prove their worthlessness.
>>21942538more like mid-eval times feast. sad what the great reset has done to the world. its all downhill from here
>>21946331I've been watching some Huetube and it seems like people are enjoying the shit out of Medœval Times post-covid. Including the food. They seem to be doing a good job to me
>>21942538OI! WENCH!! I REQUIRE MORE DIET PEPSI IN ME FLAGON!!!
>>21942538they didn't have corn, they would only eat chicken when hens stopped laying, white bread was something only rich people had, and they didn't have potatoes.
>>21945986the word "corn" was used for any seed:barley cornwheat corn
>>21942542>>21942550>>21942938>>21942956>>21943334>>21944309They literally refer to this in the script you mongs! The princess delivers a line about food from the new world so obviously it takes place in the 1500s. You want to take about immersion and none of you paid attention.
>>21942538I think the chicken is the only thing that is authentic.
>>21942542This, and why isn't there a bread plate?
>>21946303So they introduced turkeys in Europe in the 16th century, but nobody thought to bring dodos to Europe around the same time and just killed all of them instead?
>>21950579but that's all röng, knights and chivalry and tournays and plate/chain armor like that were no longer in use in the 15th or 16th centuries. not even close in fact. it's cute that they work it into the script but it just doesn't check out.>>21950604dodos, like the galapagos tortoise, were too delicious and as soon as they were onboard their life expactancy dropped to mere hours. none of them ever survived the long journey
>>21946186When I was a kid I was applying for a job at Burger King and the manager boasted the Frugal Gourmet was his uncle or something. This was just after the chomo stuff came out.
>>21950704Red and Yellow Knight supporter spotted, boo!
>>21951255Sorry anon I'm Green Knight 4life >>21942554
>>21942556>Wanting amerimutt larp fodder on a plastic plate We have actual medieval buildings and decor, you retard.
i took my gf there and one of the knights ended up cucking me. be careful is all im saying
>>21951383But you don't have a fun family friendly dinner-tournament with world class horses, world class horsemanship, and with knights you can cheer and boo while you scarf down a 3-course meal.Fun Fax: I emailed Jason Kingsley CBE once, who is one of the top respected and kindest medieval historian-enthusiasts around, asking him what he thought of Medieval Times, and he said he's never attended but has watched clips on youtube, and that the quality of horses and horsemanship on display was excellent.Youse guys should have it
>>21950579>so obviously it takes place in the 1500sWhich wasn’t the medieval period.
>>21951402>Nyaaaaagghhhh ackthually It's entertainment. And the 1500s was around when the Medieval period ended, depending on where you were in Europe and which source you consult. https://www.britannica.com/event/Middle-Ages" the period in European history from the collapse of Roman civilization in the 5th century ce to the period of the Renaissance (variously interpreted as beginning in the 13th, 14th, or 15th century, depending on the region of Europe and other factors)."So not only are you a pedantic weenie, you're also wrong. I should go to Medieval Times again soon, it was fun last time
>>21942538>thigh and legdidn't it used to be a whole little mini chicken?
>>21951414Nah I went in 1996 and it was a quarter chicken just like the OP pic
they had great meals
>>21951408The medieval period ended in 1492. Read a book, dipshit.
>>21950602It's 4 courses
>>21945986Yea, typically grain offerings were the contributions and offerings of those who couldnt afford an animal to offer.
>>21943346Thats good.
>>21951408The 15th century means 1400-1499, not the 1500s. It's why 0-99 is the first century, rather than the zeroth century.
>>21942655I remember that.The "buyer" was also the seller if you read between the lines. Still funny though.
>>21951810century is a hundred years not 99 amerifat and year 0 is not a year 0x100000 is still 0
>>21942538I can still remember the food poisoning 20+ years later.
Does any other country offer an experience like this?
>>21942697Animal blood was and is used commonly in traditional soups and stews. It’s very nutritious and helps thicken cooking liquids.
>>21943334Yeah but you just know Americans would shit their pants if you gave them period appropriate food like parsnips, carrots and genuine blood stew or pottage.
>>21944035Honestly, in terms of competitive larp sports l, competitive jousting could probably make a comeback. It’s a great deal better than gay ass HEMA. And if bull riding can exist, so can jousting.
>>21951408Los Americanos educationos
>>21952214carrots are probably the most consumed vegetable in america
>>21952290what? no, that would be corn
>>21952204that's what you get for sexually harassing the wenches you Pig
>>21952317in syrup form. tatters in every form are clearly the #1 in America and Europe
>>21946285>kidnapping Africans*buying legal products from countries with hundreds of years of tradition selling those products
>>21950704>dodos, like the galapagos tortoise, were too deliciousnot dodos, they tased crap but they were ground laying bids and cats/rats ate all their eggs
>>21942538manchildren loves this shit.
>>21953929You are a fag.
