163 The First Canned Food War

Season 5 Published 1 week, 4 days ago
Description
This week canned food is the main character.  And it has the power to change the world, becaseu just like barrels of salted meat and ships biscuit - it's going to change how the fighting man (and the women along side) are fed.

Wild to think that Civil War logistical problems were key to sweetened condensed milk becoming part of the whole world.

Oh - and if you don't know what Vienetta was - or just want to relive the splendor, check this out.
