- "What's in a name?" quoth the Bard. Well, I'd say a lot. True, these meatballs from 16th Century England don't taste like their namesake, but I would prefer they have a different title all the same.

Let me know if you'd like to see any other farts mentioned in the video. Nun Farts perhaps? How will you use your leftover farts?
In a warm bun...maybe a Sally Lunn. 😂😂😂
They all sound good.
What about pate choux? Like eclairs or the ones that look like nuns.
🤣🤣🤣
And doesn't pumpernickel mean devil's fart?
I once heard a teenage boy say “eat my farts”. Now I can rest easy knowing this was assuredly what he was referring to.
Right? He was just a gourmande.
And they say kids aren't cultured
was he portuguese?
Lol. Oh goodness now I hope he WAS Portuguese.
😂🤣😂
Our English teachers really did us a disservice by not explaining all the crude jokes in Shakespeare.
Must have been why my mom was everyone's favorite English teacher; she always made sure her students knew the jokes. : )
"Get thee to a nunnery" for example
Honestly, discovering them as an adult warms the cockles of my cold, dead heart. XD
The porter's monologue from the Scottish play is absolutely chock full of them. That guy gets only a bit of stage time, but can absolutely make or break the production.
Yeah, as someone who has been in a couple Shakespeare play productions, my enjoyment of them increased a ton when I started understanding the frankly R-rated (and/or Spongebob-level) humor throughout basically all of them. It also created a fun occasional internet pastime for me: arguing with stuffy people who get mad about "young people swearing and making bad jokes online" by using Shakespeare as an example.
Teacher: “Why can’t you kids act more mature, like your ancestors?”
Our ancestors: “What a delectable little fart.”
They must not have read Chaucer. He's not some fancy highbrow author, The Canterbury Tales is very raunchy and full of dirty jokes.
Hoist on his own petard, lol
"These farts smell delectible!" A phrase I never thought I'd hear on a cooking channel. Well done, sir!
I have never giggled so much in a cooking video.
This reminded me of that one scene from Fleabag 😱😱😱
@@eburel506 same
"Slice up your dates into small pieces."
Oh no, I've gotten into trouble for that too often already...
Calm down, dahmer.
Glad someone else went that route in their mind.
I see what you did there 😂
Amelia Bedelia
I'm a cereal killer, so I totally feel you.
"Eating farts" is not a phrase I would have ever expected from this channel, but I am so delighted it is here now.
🤣
What about pets-de-nonne?
Actually lol, I'm not surprised!🤣
Ditto. Your comment is hilarious. Thanks for the laugh I got out of it.
That's the next step up from "eat my shorts" [citation needed]
Here in belgium we have “hekseprotten” which are oat based pastryballs. It translates to: witch’s farts
I googled Belgian hekseprotten and discovered it's one of the VERY few things NOT documented ANYWHERE on the internet! Can you please post a recipe for it here or somewhere on the interwebs? That would be amazing!!
@@lilygriffin703 I searched it up, it was misspelled (it's Heksenprotten!) all I could find was recipes in what I assume must be the language they speak in Belgium:
300 gram baking butter, 1/2 kilo oatmeal flakes (or 300 gram oatmeal flakes and 200 gram muesli), 4 eggs, 200 gram sugar, 200 gram flour, 2 tea spoons of baking powder, cooking pot.
Furthermore you need
Bowl, wooden spoon, baking tray, oven.
Preparation
Set the oven to 180 degrees.
Preparation method
Melt the baking butter in a large cooking pot.
Add the 1/2 kilo oatmeal flakes and stir with a wooden spoon for 1 minute.
Take off the heat.
Mix in and bowl the 4 whole eggs with the sugar.
Stir the egg mixture into the oatmeal with a wooden spoon.
Then add the flour.
Place a piece of baking paper on the baking tray, roll balls of the dough.
Place them about 3cm apart.
Bake at 180 degrees.
Serving tip
These cookies are gone in no time !!!!
Especially if you don't keep an eye on the witches and gnomes permanently.
The best is a daily ration, then the stock will still be kept for a few days.
@@PolarBear-rc4ks thank you so much!
I would absolutely eat something with that name!
@@PolarBear-rc4ks yes, in Flemish-Dutch, the plural form(-en) gets deformed a lot in informal speech, the “e” or “n” can be dropped depending on where you live.
And the recipe sounds correct at first glance, i hope the people enjoyed it
Times and trends change, butt fart jokes are eternal.
Fart, fart never changes.
Romeo, Romeo... where fart thou, Romeo?
So. True.
I think it's safe to say that this video qualifies as sh**posting.
yeah, they linger, 'tis for certain
At the moment where you said Canadians like fart jokes, I (who doesn't get fart jokes) turned to my 4 year old(who is the first Canadian in our family) and asked her if she liked fart jokes. She giggled and said "Yes, they're so silly".
So you're right and you can tell this to everyone who says otherwise. =)
Credit to you for keeping a straight face throughout most of the video. That's exactly the kind of intestinal fortitude I'd expect from a man who can enjoy a fart without complaint.
Nooooooo[😂😂😂
Hahahahaha
My father loved to reply to "What's for dinner?" with "Fried farts and pickled assholes." If he would have known about this dish and the dough version, I imagine it would have been his favorite meal. Thank you for another great and memorable video.
I *heard* my father's voice as I read that.
I read it in my father’s thick Boston accent 😂
@@Katesashark Me too! LOL! "Fried faaahts ahn pick'ld aaahsholes!"
@@madamesalamander16 nyeee, see
How do you know he didn't know?
English teachers: Shakespeare is probably both the foundation and the pinnacle of English literature; his work is unmatched, almost divine in nature.
Shakespeare: Lol Fart
Bailey Snow
If they also discussed the humour of his works, a lot more teenagers would pay attention.
@@ragnkja Same. I always thought he was boring, had no idea he was actually humorous
Reminds me of Mozart. Sounds real classy to listen to a Mozart opera right? They are chuck full of rude sex jokes!
Jasmijn
In the case of Mozart, the rudeness is often quite obvious to those who speak the language. For example, anyone who speaks German will immediately notice just how crude “Leck mich im Arsch” is. In fact, you could probably guess what it means just by noticing the similarities to English.
To be fair he opened one of his famous works with more or less "did you just flip me the bird bro?"
"Slice up your dates into small pieces" is a disturbing sentence in and of itself.
"Why are you slicing up your dates?"
"I'm making farts"
Sounds like the narrative from the David Lynch adaptation of an unpublished James Joyce take on the life of a serial killer.
Haha wow you're right on the money with this one
Lmao
Before you slice up your dates, make sure you are ambidexterous
I interpret it as "Slice up the ppeople you're going on dates with" which is quite disturbing as well.
@@mimmikibilly Yeah, that's what I was referring too!
"These farts smell like the holidays" needs to be quoted every day, from now on.
Hahaha
"The recipe should make around 12-13 lovely little farts"
Sounds like my Chili recipe...
Yeah but that one comes with an afterburner
🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sounds like a rather unusual chili recipe; I don't believe I've run across any that use mutton...
And the best comment goes to... 😂😂😂
This was the last place I anticipated to find a reference to Terrance and Phillip.
Not disappointed.
🤣
10/10, would snort-giggle again
Canadian here, and I burst out laughing when I saw T & P. Damn those South Park boys!! lolol
I am sooooo happy that I'm not the only one that is juvenile enough to laugh every time the word fart was uttered! Thank you for the giggle...definitely needed it today! lol
"Drop your farts in the water, a half dozen at a time..."
.....
.....
This is bad hot tub etiquette.
Well...it just transforms the hot tub into a jacuzzi...
Soda stream products be like:
HAHAHA
I applaud you for saying farts so often with a straight face.
I almost fell over from laughing to much.
Love that Max always has a plushy animal in the background that matches the topic. Makes me laugh (and look for it in every video).
Makes me wonder where he keeps them all!!
Jose, his husband does those!
"I really hate that word so I really apologize for the amount of times you're about to hear it"
Wow, no love for Portugal. Stone cold.
NUMBER of times.
I know! What's wrong with Portugal?
Lmao
Would a fart of portingal by any other name taste as sweet?
- Shakespeare, probably
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You win 😄
I drive my 82 yr old mother-in-law (I love her to pieces, she's a hoot) and her 80 and 90 yr. old, Red Hat, group around. There is a pot luck planned for December, (Hopefully it will be safe by then to meet up), I am soooo bringing these, they will laugh their hats off.
Did you bring them?
@@megancrager4397 Sadly, not all of them, just MIL. She made some, and the four of us had a smaller, but "Fartty" good time.
This will definitely be a part of my holiday meals, replete with a label card containing a bit of history and mirth.
These farts smell like the holidays...I literally laughed out loud.
I don't imagine tasting farts was what you had in mind when you started this channel.
🤣
Shakespeare: One of the most renowned writers in english history
Also Shakespeare: "Haha, farts go pfffffffffffffffrrrrrrrrt!"
He also wrote the first recorded yo mama joke iirc
@@candicehoneycutt4318 you villain I have done thy mother
that's exactly why he's renowned
"the aptly named character.. bottom" how did he deliver that with a straight face omg
Great recipe . I think this is basically a medieval Christmas mince pie filling made into balls and poached in broth . These were probably made with all sorts of dried fruit , currants , figs , dates etc back in the day . The difference being that mince pies now have suet in them but no meat . Using mutton would give more fat to the recipe than lamb , making the 'farts ' more succulent . Also mincing / grinding the mutton or lamb gives a different , more chewy texture to the meat fibers . Chopping the meat until it is 'minced ' down , results in a better texture . I love these glimpses into culinary history
Speaking as a proud Canadian (now living in the US) I can absolutely confirm that we love fart jokes almost as much as we love poutine and Tim Horton's.
Ha! I need to do a poutine episode.
@@TastingHistory French Canadian food itself would be a journey, really. Very rustic stuff even today.
Also why is it so weird to American restaurants that I would love a side of really good, thick beef gravy with my fries?! They look at me like I've grown three heads. In Canada you can get gravy no problem - hell it's a typical teenager's cafeteria lunch in high school.
@@TastingHistory If you do Poutine, most "Historic" poutine is gonna be very far from the fry and cheese curds. And in some cases, very disappointing. Poutine râpée is an aberration.
@@BigGhilz True, but at the same time there are some truly delicious poutine recipes out there. There was a chip wagon near my old place that sold "Newfoundland Poutine", which was fresh fries and cheese curds, but they used turkey gravy instead of beef, topped with stuffing and green peas. I'm not sure why it was named after Nfld, but it tasted like Thanksgiving and it was glorious.
So is poutine just a mispronounced putain?
A Fart of Portingale, by any other name, would smell as sweet*
_*Warning: does not apply to all farts_
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Alrightest Guitarist
It does _kind of_ apply to all farts, in that “smell as sweet” doesn’t actually require them to smell sweet, only _equally_ sweet by another name.
I was expecting him to say "Frankly, I don't give a lamb."
Hopefully next lamb dish he will 😂
He needed to pin this
Made this tonight and it was AMAZING!! I did substitute raisins for currants and went very light on cloves. What you didn’t mention is how great the beef stock comes out after the meatballs are boiled in it - perfect stock! Thanks so much for this!
This video is truly the zenith for me. My favorite spectator sport - cooking - combined with my favorite pastime - learning history -has always been a winning combo but now we garnish with multiple fart jokes?! Farts will never not be funny to me and Max will always be my favorite creator.
"mince your dates"
My boyfriend is wondering why I'm chasing him with a knife
🤣 I guess I should have been more specific.
@@TastingHistory Exactly, now my boyfriend is too pulpy. :D :D :D :D
ruclips.net/video/5aQ_uEEMPqE/видео.html
Just tell him you want to make a dozen farts...
Did you explain to them you only needed 60 grams?
Max I think you need to make a new playlist called "Most Unfortunately Named Dishes in History" and add this along with the Rapé
my daughter once made a dessert called sex in a pan that might have to make the playlist
Placenta
Max's reaction when he realises a fart tastes delicious is priceless.
Gotta love this episode. Lol. Shakespeare apparently had a lot in common with Leslie Nielson..or vice versa.
I think a lot of our school systems do a disservice to Shakespeare by not covering his comedies often enough. I'm thankful that my first exposure to his works was A Midsummer Night's Dream, which is an excellent one for those who are fans of MST3K or RiffTrax.
And when I got around to Hamlet (senior year), I happened to get the teacher who was not afraid to point out Shakespeare's dirty jokes.
We made these for Thanksgiving this year, and they were WONDERFUL!
Tasting History is absolutely the best quarantine find for me.
Me at the beginning: ahh, surely fart meant something else 500 years ago!
Me as the history went on: 😶
As an English person interested in food history I know a lot of our foods are named after crude jokes so me at the beginning: this is gonna be a rude joke right?
Me at the end: yup I was right.
@@violetskies14 Would you mind listing some of these foods with crude names? If any of them top 'Farts of Portugal' I would absolutely love to know them.
@@ItsVikVaughn Spotted Dick, for example. The name is...not a metaphor. For anything. The dish looks like a giant, spotted willy when it's done.
@@ItsVikVaughn The first thing that came to mind was spotted dick - it's a victim of linguistic drift, not actually named after a rude word AFAIK, but at least one place serves it as "spotted Richard" to sidestep the innuendos!
Same.🙄😭🤣😭
"Then drop your farts in the water..." Gotta say, I cracked up at this point! I dread to think how many takes this took to put together...
It gives a whole new twist on "drop the kids off at the pool".
Half a dozen at a time
I don't think I've ever chuckled watching a cooking tutorial, but thank you for keeping couth for the most part while saying it.
I lift my glass to the courage it might've taken to share this recipe.
Fantastic - another excellent video, Max! Lamb with sweet fruit (prunes, dates, apricots and so on) is quite common in North African tagines, of course - it's a combination that works really well.
A friend of mine started doing something very similar but with turkey mince (lower fat) for gaming nights. It's just a fantastic concept, quite easy to make and incredibly tasty. But they clearly didn't know they're called farts, because we would've been all over that.
This also made me think of a N African restaurant I used eat at in London, the tagine dishes were amazing and very similar to this!
Like my boys say, “The best fart you’ll ever eat!!”
This makes me smile so much!! 🤗❤️🤗
Thank you for the recommendation!
Made syllyabub. My jeans have not yet forgiven my waistline. Thanks, Max.😛
So worth it. 🤣
I have watched many of your episodes as of late and am really enjoying them. They are both funny and serious at the same time and all are very informative. You have impeccable comedic timing and pause. After watching this episode I believe I shall now serve Farts of Portingale and Mead at my next holiday party. Both of which I have watched in the past few weeks on this channel. Keep up the wonderful work!! Which reminds me, maybe some videos or a series on Middle ages or Renaissance Tavern foods. What would a weary common traveller eat whilst travelling or maybe even what would the nobles or upper class eat whilst travelling abroad. We know these trips would have taken days of travel compared to the hours it currently takes to cover the same distances. Middle ages Roadside Grub.......
Just made these from the recipe in your book. Fantastic! And of course we had some delightful and informative historical conversation (and fart jokes, too) over our meal. Your recipes are so well done and easy to follow for a modern home cook. Thanks, Max!
HHHmm okay guys hear me out...a Townsends collab?? wouldnt that just be amazing🥺
Absolutely agree 👍👍👍
Has been done.
Definitely
It was amazing!!!
There's gonna be a lot of nutmeg
"And some very witty commentary. I wonder why I'm such a fan?"
That's 50% why I'm watching now! Love your work. So informative and so entertaining.
Both my teenage brothers: What’s for dinner?
Me: Farts.
I have no idea how I stumbled on this channel but I’m so happy that I did. Thank you for all the time, research and work you put into these videos.
PLEASE do what you (subscribers/commenters) can to keep yourself and others safe. Not trying to be pushy, it’s just the healthcare worker in me.
does eating farts apply to staying safe? ;)
LBrobie Lol. Of course it does! Laughter is the best medicine after all ;)
Thank you for helping to keep the rest of us safe!
Never
I don't know which is better, the video or the comments. Well done! 🤣
I am going to make these for my next cocktail party! They sound and look delicious and the name and history of them make for some interesting conversation...especially after a few drinks. Love your vlog!!!
Re: Types of currants. The Townsends have a good video on why currants are so damn hard to find here in the US, and as with most of their videos it's good fun.
Good, nutmeggy fun.
I love Townsend’s. I’m going to buy my dad’s gift from them this Christmas.
I would say funny to find a fellow Townsend's fan here, but... well. If you're here and not watching Townsend as well, what are you doing with your life?
Mrs. Crocombe and Townsends rule! Tasting History is with good company!
*_"Pardon me ma'am, I'd like to make some farts, and I hear you're good at it."_* Yep. I'm single. Hard to imagine, I know.
🤣
Ah, you just haven't met the right nautilass. I'm sure one will come out of her shell instead of scuttle away through the waves 🦑🐙🐚🐌
@nautifella If you asked me to do that for you I’d look up the recipe and get cooking.
I've watched the first 10 seconds, and paused it. As a Portuguese person, I want to go on record as saying, I WILL MAKE THESE NO MATTER WHAT. Thank you. :)
I second this
@@inesalmeida2199 Carne com passas...ugh
..and, much belatedly wish you safe health, but, ..how did they taste? -as and when test cooked
I can't believe this showed up as a suggested video and I can't believe that I watched it. I REALLY can't believe I actually enjoyed this video. Thanks for making history fun.
One of my favorite things about your channel is trying to guess what stuffed animal is going to be in the background. Also, amazing content!
me at first: ? what's with the sheep?
me eventually: oh, right, mutton.
Oh my, thank you for the giggles. You've awoken my inner 10 year old. Love your work.
Thank you 😊
In parts of Mexico we have a cookie called "pedos de monja" which mean nun's farts. This is a little round cookie powder sugar
Delish
Well, In France you've also " pets de nonne " it's the same stuff 😁
And in Hungary too.
Sweet farts, omnomnom.
I know wich ones you are talking about!
In the north, we have the same cookies, but we call them "Nun's kiss" or "Brides kiss", not so sure about wich one, it depends on who and where are selled.
Greetings from Sonora, Mexico! :D
Can fully recommend the blog referenced: The past is a foreign pantry! Amazing recipes from a very knowledgeable history teacher, who has a degree in Ancient and Medieval History! If you want authentic dishes from the past, there's really no better place to look!
Only this channel could make a centuries old fart joke seem cultured! Lol, keep it up sir. I'm definitely making these for Christmas dinner.... Might wait till after the meal to tell everyone they just ate a plate full of farts
Today I am thinning out my channels. Your channel is surviving easily. It is fun, and about food!!!
In dutch the an old word for ‘sweetheart’ is ‘scheetje’ ( little fart ). Coincidence ? I think not after seeing this video :)
That does gives a new twist to the term "Dutch oven" the noncooking variety.
Omg my granny used to call us this!😂
Harry Betteridge that’s hilarious
It probably started out as sweetfart in English and then got revised for our protection by forward thinking English teachers.
Oh my god that's literally like saying "shittie" in English
I’m with you, Max; I really hate that word! I’m also not very fond of cloves, so just a tiny pinch will go in when I decide I can struggle through telling my husband what they’re called and make them some weekend soon. Thanks for another interesting, informative, and humorous taste of history!
When you said you hate the word “fart” I couldn’t understand why you said that... I am indeed, Canadian.
I was hoping he would joke that the word he hated saying was "Portugal".
Made them! Used ground lamb so super easy. My boys (12 and 8) obviously enjoyed helping with these. They called them okay. Adults really liked them. Serving them as a Christmas appetizer with a plum or fig sauce is on my agenda. Going to repeat next week for my father-in-law.
While browsing around the internet looking for appetizer ideas I came across your channel by accident. Let me tell you I was quite thrilled to have two things I have an interest in history and well food, spice that up with a dash of 12 yr old me humour and lo and behold Farts of Portingale. I made an honey/brown sugar/bourbon glazed ham, an apricot/cranberry/goat cheese ball (reconstituted dried apricots in apple juice, boiled cranberries in orange juice, strained and mixed) and the pinnacle of my Thanksgiving dinner feast...the Farts. Yes I would not tell anyone what these delectible seasonal flavoured lambballs were truely called until all who attended sampled them...then the reveal..."I am glad you all have enjoyed my farts...my farts of portingale" You sir are awesome, keep up the medieval food content.
Welcome! Pull up a chair
As a Portuguese person I fount this quite amusing 😂 ❤️ it
I want to know what made the English think of these as specifically Portuguese toots. Did Portugal at the time have a reputation for spicy or savory food, considering most other people's flatulences turned out sweet?
@@jameswoodard4304They kinda still are, Portuguese cuisine is full of flavors and spices even to this (they had to do something with all the spices they got from India, right?)
And the names... as a Brazilian who has lived in Portugal, I always tried to be culturally sensitive, but some of the food names there were just... gold. Hard not to laugh.
They had prego no pão (nail on bread, a meat sandwich), rojões (skyrocket, the firework kind, but it was fried pork), toucinho do céu (lard from heaven, actually a sweet cake), farrapo velho (old rags, a dish made of salted cod leftovers) and grelos (leaves, stems and sprouts of broccoli or turnips, but in Brazilian Portuguese that's a vulgar word for clitoris...) or punheta de bacalhau (salted cod again, but this time the name meams jerking off...)
Farts wouldn't seem out pf place (I can totally imagine "peidos de borrego" on a Portuguese menu)
@@lucaslourenco8918 ,
Thanks for the info. Of course, the Brits also traded in spices from around the world, but they seem to have sold them off to others for a profit before they ever got to use any, if their cuisine is anything to go by.
This man is so delightful and funny. I'm always pleasantly surprised by how much I chuckle throughout his videos.
I compliment you in your choice of beverage for this show. A pint of Boddington's is perfect for a meal like the farts!
Love the stuff!
some could say ale leads to farts
@@TastingHistory it will be even better if you tilt the glass and slow pour it in! I had heart palpitations as it was dumped in!
@@TastingHistory Sadly, not the same - even on draught - since they moved from Strangeways. InBev have disgracefully run the brand into the ground.
@@garethwesleyevans Boddington's tells you to specifically pour it in straight. There's a plastic ball thing inside the can that agitates it too. Give it a try, one of the best cans I've had.
My brother is coming for Christmas, and our family will be together again. I’m collecting fun recipes that we can enjoy and have some interesting conversations about. I can hardly wait to show this video and then let everyone know what we’re having for dinner. LOL Love your videos! Thank you😃
This is the first time I hear about the origins of a dessert I ate all the time as a kid. Pete de soeur (of nun farts) was one of my favorite things. I miss having them, might have to make some. As a newish subscriber, I have to say to I absolutely love this channel, and the mention of nun farts made me love it even more lol
Watching you crack up while tasting these was absolutely hysterical. The silliest episode yet, but so enjoyable.
Milord, your videos just keep getting better and better. Following your development avidly from your beginnings.. The veritable highlight of my days!(you may like to try a recipe knowne as POMPS or Pumpes as well from a wonderful redaction site called Gode Cookerye, run by a lovely fellow who is also a member of The Society for Creative Anachronism, international medieval re enactment club. Have a lovely day and Gode cokinge!
Thank you sir! I love that site. A great resource for me.
In my best Monty Python French accent "I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!" "Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!"
Can we appreciate that it took Max just *that* much more effort to say "Tasting History"
I avoided watching this video for so long, literally just from the name and thumbnail. I love all your stuff Max, and I'm glad I took the time to watch this one, but I think I could just absolutely never hear the word again and be overjoyed.
Dude way to hold it together through that one 👏👏👏
This will forever be my most favorite video on RUclips.
🤣 huzzah!
According to my mom, certain areas of North West Mexico call marshmallows "pedo de monja" translated as "farts of a nun".
This is one of my favourite renaissance dishes. I serve it in the broth, which is made completely delicious by the goodies in the meatballs. it is also a really great one to serve to large numbers of people - they make for easy portion control, and you can make the meatballs in advance and then cook them in deep roasting trays in the oven, or in a giant pot. I have made this dish for 180 people with no worries, and it always is very popular.
Been binge watching all your videos, this one broke me, I laughed way too hard.
After watching this and reading the comments, I can't stop laughing. I feel silly but I guess that will blow over. Thank you for all of the hard work you put into your awesome videos.
I can't wait to tell my family I'm bringing farts to Thanksgiving dinner 😂
I love your lobster shirt Max!
Thank you 😊
"Aptly named chacharacter, Bottom" I DIED
"Its a fact that lobster-themed shirts are all the rage during the pandemic of 2020s", remarked by 30th century archaeologists while sifting thru the ancient RUclips library.
You are sooo good with foreign words! I can tell you prepare to say them on your show. I love that!
(I commented before even watching the video, because who doesn't find food called "fart" amusing. So yeah, you actually mentioned it.)
There is a doughnut-ish dessert in Hungary, bearing the name nunfart (apácafing) or nunfartlet (apácafingocska). It's delicious.
Fartlet. 😂 I’m gonna start calling them that,
Clove and mace are good Christmas spices. Might be good on the buffet for Christmas Eve.
I've never eaten a fart, but I think I'm about to start.
🤣
They're good for your heart!
Available in many tarts.
Anything with buckwheat? Also known as kasha, kazha and kutta.
"...didn't have the funds for a fancy fart."
Ok, that was masterful.
This episode has me rolling lol. I can't even keep a straight face. 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Yay a Mareep episode!!! I hope they add them to Sword and Shield soon, the Mareep line was always my favorite
I love when he gets surprised by the good taste haha
The dates and currants are both really unexpected and intriguing. And as always, great video and keep up the good work! I'm still amazed at how fast your channel has grown and I love it
Thank you!
Something tells me the title of this one will yet again bring in a large group of curious new subscribers. They'll come for the fart joke ('What does that say? A typo, surely?'), and stay for the excellent content.

I like to watch this channel when I'm upset, it makes me feel better. You're definitely a great host, makes me want to buy some Renaissance-era cookbooks 🤔
using my fiance's account to watch this. i have spent this entire episode half watching this and half reading the past is a foreign pantry's article on researching ancient mesopotamian mutton stew "kansu broth" and it's hilarious. am going to watch the video on it now that yours finished
