from Boring History for Sleep · host Velvet

Well, let’s just say, if it wasn’t drowned in wine or roasted over a fire, it probably wasn’t worth lifting your golden fork for. But here’s the kicker: while peasants were munching on hard bread and mystery stew, the rich were feasting on... peacocks, and other exotic things.
