Cooking Through History, Period 2
Class would be meeting in the Danger Shop, but today it just looked like a well-appointed office, with plenty of chairs for everybody.
"Hello, and welcome to Cooking Through History," he told the class. "We will be learning many things about how humans have approached food and cooking throughout the years. There will be field trips involved, and you will also be cooking yourself. This week, however, is for introductions, so I would like to hear from each of you your name, your experience with any kinds of cooking, and also any allergies, aversions, or dietary restrictions you have."
He uncovered several large dishes on his desk.
"Today we will be eating my food. Testaroli, arguably the oldest known pasta, with olive oil and cheese, and peas, perhaps the oldest cultivated vegetable. Also beer, homemade, which is the oldest beverage for which we have recipes. And water for those of you who may choose not to drink it."
He brought out plates and silverware and waved them toward it. "Get your lunch, and introduce yourselves."

Re: Introduce yourselves!
"No allergies or anything," he added, "but I do like spicy foods? If that's helpful? Not, like, Vette-spicy, but, you know, still, nice to have a good kick."
Re: Introduce yourselves!
Vette-spicy was a thing all of its own.
