    In Italian restaurants in Rome it means "we think you are an idiot and we are serving this spaghetti with so little sauce and almost "crispy" because we want you to go away." The entire time I was in Italy the "angel hair" pasta was no "al dente" the way I fix it at home, with a "toothsome response" as the chef showed me at an Italian restaurant in San Francisco. No it was, literally, inedible and CRUNCHED when I chewed it.

    In UK we call this Bucks Fizz. I always thought mimosa was a flower... but then I also thought that if nuns lived in nunneries then abbots must live in abbottoirs! Edit: mimosas ARE flowers! And the difference between a bucks fizz and mimosa (drink) is that mimosa is two parts orange juice to one part champagne, whilst bucks fizz is one part orange juice to two parts champagne. We do like our alcohol in the UK! And our cheese... And our apples...

We have Masala Chai, Black tea, Irani Chai, Green Tea, Kashmiri kahwa, Kangra tea, Oolang tea. Sometimes ginger or Lemon grass or cardamom too is added to tea..

    It's related to cinnamon. I know you can make cardamom rolls just like cinnamon rolls. "Cardamom partners naturally well with ginger and turmeric because it comes from the same family, as well as with allspice, pepper, cinnamon, cloves, fennel, paprika, and saffron."

    Important to note that cardamom has more of a citrus smell and taste to it than cinnamon does (not that that's a bad thing by any means, but if someone doesn't know to be aware of it they may think the spice is off/wrong) On a similar note, I like adding a tiny dash of pepper to my cinnamon or cardamom to intensify the flavor (and spice)

    The research between turmeric and cancer is ongoing. Results that I've seen have shown there is a link to possible reduction, but is tenuous. I think that research is still in peer review. To be fair, at one time it was believed that cyanide would be a decent treatment (by consuming apple seeds, which has a compound that when digested becomes low dose cyanide). I've not seen any research concerning Alzheimer's, but if that's true, that's awesome.

Much like peas were the basic ingredient in many European foods instead of potatoes long before they ever had potatoes, or bananas were a condiment in some Asian countries long before they had peppers or tomatoes.

    Actually the empty wine bottle and candle did not really start in Italy. As an Italian I would add pates and silverware. As soon as breakfast is finished they would start cooking for lunch same with dinner. Well at least that is how my Italian side of the family does with get together a. There's always food cooking.

    This one doesn't surprise me. It was common (apparently) amongst university students where I attended school. At a Craft & Food course a fellow student claimed that you buy all other food but steal cheese. More than half of the class knew of or followed this practice. It was new to me and I didn't do it because, not a thief (additional edit: also I was a mature student of 50+years). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The school had a food bank btw.

    You can use it for a variety of things, it's satiating and has protein, fat AND a variety of vitamins And depending on the cheese it doesn't get bad so quickly So understandable

    The official KFC Twitter account follows 6 people named Herb, and all 5 Spice Girls... 11 herbs and spices. I feel this is a better trivia fact than simply stating there are 11 herbs and spices. 🤔

    Missing a "said to be". It was a slogan invented to sell corn flakes (the brand with a K) and got perverted into gospel truth

    It doesn't matter what time/food you eat, as technically you're "breaking your fast" from the night before. So even if you wake up at 6am, and have a slice of cake at 3pm; that's your breakfast, and one can argue... your most important meal of the day. 😂
