FANCY THAT!
Rich Egyptians liked to eat raw cabbage as a starter at meals. How much do you now NOT want to be a rich ancient Egyptian?
There were whole roast oxen (think cow), geese, ducks and pigeons. And afterwards came the cakes – yes, even the ancient Egyptians loved a nice bit of cake.
But don’t get too excited at the sound of all that lovely grub. Unless you currently live in a castle, you’re not the sort who’d get your mitts on that kind of dinner.
Now eat up – you’ve hardly touched your raw cabbage.
