how do they know what historical figures ate?>make some random high class/royalty dish>this is what alexander ate
>>85091424In 3000 years, if you found a recipe for hamburgers from McDonald's, and knew that a lot of Americans ate McDonald's, then you could easily infer that famous Americans probably ate McDonald's at least once.
>>85091424idk about this shortform content but there are documented accounts of what some rulers ate or enjoyed eatingTasting History is -decent- at that, his recipes tend to veer from the accounts but he does cite a lot of his historical sources
>>85091434Yeah I would be willing to bet Alexander actually ate something like that and now I am not being sarcastic it looks good I would want to eat it too I wonder what would have happened if we brought back the food we have today would they really like it they probably would they probably would like go crazy over it
