It's not true.
Boredom feels terrible while it lasts, but it doesn't kill you. In the end, humans usually start to get creative after boredom.
Oh, and yes, some food industry has found out things and told you things... yes, they were creative :-)
What about the British? They were starving, and they didn't get creative. They just kept eating brown goo for centuries.
I like British food. I live in Germany now and if I see another Maultasche I'm going to scream.
hmmm, looked this up.... it sounds delicious and exotic !
Not when it's the only thing served at restaurants (plus bad frozen schnitzel).
I had heard that British cuisine was much more robust before WW1.
Also, if brown goo is meat-flavored, I'd be down for it.
Got a recipe book for the British working class that was written in the 1800s, even that has curry in it.
Are you saying that the brown stuff is curry? I am a fan of curry, but the stuff I make at home is green or yellow.
People ate brown rice back in the day, and people wonder why butt cancer rates are skyrocketing now that everything has had the fiber removed. Eat fiber!
Yah, sure, we are making our curry with lentils and parsnip. I was just wondering what the curry has to do with brown goo.
It is brown goo flavored, and you will eat it until you are completely brainwashed into liking it.
We like carbs which are often brown and make for a good hangover food. Not sure about goo though?
I suppose that's why we added mild pain to our diet. Mix things up a bit.
