Are we sure about Apple Crumble? I’m pretty sure it’s a typical treat of France and mostly German for quite some time. Won’t surprise me if it slightly evolved in GB recently but to be invented…
I found a reference to crumble pies from saxony from 1584. Although a bit different, using crumbles over fruit pies isnt that much different and i’d bet my left nipple, that it has been baked in the centuries before. The date of invention in this case looks like it is being determined through dated recipes of which earlier ones may have been lost.
Hawaiian pizza is Canadian? I am shocked
Some of those I’m surprised they are as old as they are. Nachos seems like something the 70s came up with.
Okay, attribution doner kebab to Germany because they put it on bread is just ridiculous!
EDIT Looking into it, it was invented in Turkey, popularised by Turkish immigrants in Berlin. They’ve always been stuffed into bread, like lavaş, pita, etc.
So Germany didn’t even put it on bread, it’s straight up Turkish.
Didn’t know bubble tea is actually that old.
Same here, I genuinely thought they were invented in the past 5 or so years
Recent he says in 40 years ago
Who’s General Tso and why have I been given the cooked remains of his chicken?
I stopped asking questions and just eat increasingly unhealthy portions of it.
Edit: I started asking questions again and turns out, he was a real person.
I always thought it was named after the Three Kingdoms era military leader Cao Cao. I blame it on Wade-Giles making no goddamn sense to me. Tso vs Ts’ao.
Whelp time to re-download dynasty warriors. Thank you.
Fartons? At least that name didn’t come from an English speaking country.
They look tasty though. Fartons in my mouth please.
Literally came to the comments to confirm that the top comment would be about fartons. Thank you.
We stopped inventing new food in the 2000s???
So Canada created that fucking abomination…
