or a question could be: how was food preserved before the wide-spread
use of the ice box, and then electric or gas refrigerators (remember
the servel?)

1.. chickens were in the yard and had to scrounge for themselves on
whatever was there.

2. of course spices were used to mask the flavor, and taste of food
that had become very, very gamy (to the modern way of thinking)

8. absolutely. wonder if spices were also used by the priests.

more questions please.
