My favorite facts about Halifax is that the first French people to get there starved to death the first year because they wouldn’t eat that weird vegetable the natives from the Mi’kmaq tribe gave them, because they didn’t like the taste. Turns out it was potatoes. Can you imagine that?
I do think some French dudes would have tried to at least boil and salt them. While it’s true Mi’kmaq people didn’t put salt in their food as they thought it was toxic, those French settlers couldn’t care less. Salt was used as a conservant pretty much everywhere in Europe, and Nova Scotia has very long coast line (meaning salt was abundant).
My guess is that our tastes changed a lot since then. And “French” fries wasn’t possible yet, because frying grease was too costly and rare.
If working in corporate America has taught me anything they would expect everyone to provide their own costume and the party would be a one-off. And attendance would be mandatory. They would also announce bonuses for upper management, but no you don’t get one. Thanks for coming on such short notice!
That’s just flat wrong. Soil pH out that way is about 4 at the lowest.
On top of that bones are large, with low surface area, meaning it’ll take a long time for them to ‘dissolve’. Ok top of that, you would expect to see this in other locations
