We had a huge event here is Spokane, WA a couple years ago, while the Titanic Exhibit was at the Museum of Art and Culture. The Davenport Hotel hosted an exclusive fundraiser for the museum, serving the final meal on the Titanic, while a historian narrated the final night of the Titanic’s journey. There were at least 7 different wines, ports and other drinks, most imported. Everything was insanely decadent, and I tried dishes I’ve never had before! Also, by best friend and I spent the month before preparing our costumes, and attended dressed in Edwardian Fashion! It was a wonderfully memorable night!😊😊
Wow I live in Wenatchee Washington and I'm surprised that I never heard anything about that. it definitely sounds like a fine time although I'm curious? I would guess it was around several hundred dollars a plate if it equalled the meal served on the Titanic.
"How could someone possibly eat all that?" Keep in mind that this meal spanned over 4 hours, and that people (especially corseted women) probably only ate a bit of each course. Still, very unhealthy--when Giles Coren of Supersizers got a checkup after a week of eating like a wealthy Edwardian, he was told that if he'd continued that diet, he would have gotten gout and died by 60.
KCK Corsets weren't and aren't a bad thing. Women, if they didn't tight-lace (which hardly anyone did), would have been able to function normally. You have to remember that corsets were also worn by women working in factories or on farms and they were still able to hard work for hours on end. The human body is durable but not that durable.
@@elizzzzzzzza You're preaching to the choir, sister. A lot of myths surrounding corsetry... but corsets DO affect how you breathe and how much you can eat (I've worn them). Even without them, it wouldn't have been considered ladylike to eat a lot.
For those wondering about all that food, tiny waistlines, corsets, puking and food coma... all those courses were actually VERY SMALL. Each course's serving size was barely 2oz each. So let's do some basic old fashioned math. 11 courses at 1 serving size per course would be 22oz for the entire meal beginning to end over a 4 hour timeframe. Considering in comparing a casual diner's supper of a 1/4lb cheeseburger plus fixings, condiments and bun. That would raise the ounces to 1/2 to 3/4 of a pound. So, just the cheeseburger would be 12oz by itself. Then you'd get 2 sides (French fries and coleslaw for example). French fries would be 1-3oz depending on size S, M, L. Coleslaw would be 1oz. Then you'd get an 8oz refillable drink. Add in dessert at 1-3oz depending on size. Once you've finished that whole meal in 30-45 minutes, your total consumption of food and drink would be 24-32+oz in less than 1 hour. These people, even the upper class, only indulged like that occasionally. And they consumed usually no more than 1 serving each which would be 22oz grand total of food and drink stretched out over a 4 hour period.
I just could never eat that much at one time...i have trouble with my stomach ..I know they were very small courses .They would have to be...Maybe I would be ok taking 4 hours to eat..but still ..I can go days without eating a real meal..Light snacking is what I do...and nothing greasy or to sweet..ugh...Or I would be sick..I don't want to be a picky eater most things I like but just can't eat...I even tried raw ground pork here in Germany called mett ...As an American well ...aaaa.. well I am not use to it..I could only take one bite...but I did it ...
Likely true...small portions eaten over 4 1/2 hours. Perhaps breakfast and lunch or brunch were more of a light snack to save the appetite for dinner. However, a mind-boggling number of pots, pans, dishes, glasses, and utensils to wash with very heavy fresh water which had to be stored on board. The second-class menu for dinner would also be interesting.
@@spokeforhours yes.. true they do... I have always had trouble with my stomach...I wish I was normal and could enjoy eating like others..I love to cook..but I often feel ill after eating ..I was born and raised in Kentucky ..the south were we fry a lot ..Tastes good,but I just can't eat the fried food...to much grease..I can't have caffeine....So yes I know what you mean... If I am invited into someone's home for a meal I will eat what they have...I will not say anything...as that would be rude...I may suffer later with nausea ,but I just refuse to be rude...So I did not mean anything bad..and I am sorry if it sounded that way...
"Though King Edward had died of a DOUBLE heart attack in 1910...." Well, if he ate anything like Titanic's 1st class menu every single day, that's not surprising. :v
The Red Sterling Mc'Bae But he died in the midst of a constitutional crisis, with debates over whether the House of Lords or the House of Commons was the superior in power, until the Parliament Act of 1911 declaring the supremacy of the House of Commons. Let’s just say it was the start of the shitshow that was all of the 20th century for Britain
@Nicki Don Same here. We love lamb, and raise one for slaughter each year, same with a beef. Grass/hay fed only. Too many hormones in store bought meat. We also have free range chickens. Yep, we have a small farm---3 acres. (Jan Griffiths).
OK AT FIRST I WAS VERY AGAINST IT BUT I HAD IT IN PARIS AND ITS ACTULLY REALLY REALLY GOOD. LIKE I DONT KNOW HOW BUT ITS REALLY TASTY TRUST ME. Its salty and sweet and it jsut works dont ask
@@sjs9354 Back then yes , but these meals are not that hard to create I cook like that ... dinner tonight : Roasted pork with an apple and raisin glaze side of romano cheese noodles with garlic mushroom /green beans , dessert mini apricot tarts with an orange rum icing 😋
As a French chef in the US the menu sounds heaven. You have to remember that these meals in first class lasted several hours and they did not finish their plates as it was not polite to do so. Many high end restaurants like Mélisse/Citrin in Santa Monica offer a 9 course menu with 5 appetizers/canapés. Also course 4 Th. and 5 Th. is a choice of dishes not all of them. Portions were smaller as well. In France we can sit 5 hours for dinner and have a wonderful time. We take our time. Plates were smaller an so were the glasses. Large plates and glasses started appearing in the 80's. I miss these classics when i go out. I have to make them at home
There were no Shows,no casinos, no cinema ,so the evening entertainment was the Dinner and chsts after that over sigars and brandy, and for the women other refreshments. More of stretching the evening and breaks between the courses. Careme and Escoffier did much we take for gramted to day .
No. They did not last several hours. It was a public place, not Mrs. Vanderbilt’s annual ball in New York or Newport. Plus let’s not forget that for people prone to seasickness an ocean crossing was an endurance test and some probably never even made it to the dining room.
If you think the food was exhausting, try the brain damaging level of etiquette at an Edwardian table and how you’d have to bring your A game just to avoid being shunned ..for hours at a time. Every. Single. Day. “Dear God! Did you see Lady Applebottom’s back touch the chair two hours into the 8th course?! What a disgrace! I’m afraid she’s always been dead common.”
@@rayjohnson3179 there probably are not many records that were kept about the the third class on the count of them being poor people, I suppose you could have better luck the second class as they were working class
Crikey, how on earth did these people manage to eat TEN courses of food?! When I eat at a restaurant, I generally only have a main course and a dessert because starters tend to fill me up before I have my main meal.
They only ate one bite, if they showed that they were actually HUNGRY they would be looked down upon because that would mean they didn't have money and also, the meal would last hours
even today, super wealthy ppl I've known who were born into it would order like half the menu, & just eat a little bit of each item. I'm guessing it was no different back then for society's elite
I saw a recreation of the Titanic meals. The portion sizes were estimated to be somewhat smaller than we might use today. It was more about enjoying a variety of tastes expertly prepared than it was about the quantity of food. Besides you were supposed to be engaging in good conversation and witty banter throughout the evening.
Dinner generally started at 6:30pm and finished with coffee, cigars and petit fours close to midnight. This was also at a time when your girth was an indication of your success!
People would pick and choose the multitude of dishes and very rarely eat the Full Monty, as Edward VII invariably did. Gourmet meals like these are still offered in posh restaurants and hotels today but you are more likely to get sick from all the different alcoholic drinks that are served with the dishes then from trying to eat everything that is served.
That is probably my favorite line in the entire show, maybe seconded to “What Happens When The Nonexistent Bumps Against The Decrepit?” Lady knew cheese was important 😎 🧀
Well, if I were a time traveler going back to have a last dinner on the Titanic and then shadow the head baker as the ship sank, you bet I'd be eating well at dinner to have something to burn and keep me warm in the water!
Gigi Tutillo the portions were quite small. But I still don’t know. When you wear a corset the main thing I notice is you get full quicker because your stomach can’t expand so much, and almost all of the women would’ve been wearing corset from age 17 and older of all classes.
C Elizabeth A woman commonly reduced her waist size by 4” using a corset; most corsets from the the late Victorian and Edwardian eras fall in the range of 20”-26” at the waist, putting the majority of natural waist sizes between 24” and 30”. Many women in those eras easily fitted into 24” dresses; it was middle of range.
Gigi Tutillo It was actually considered very bad etiquette for ladies to eat a lot at dinner. :) The polite and ladylike thing was to eat a few mouthfuls of every course (if you refused something altogether that was considered rude too, especially if you were at a home dinner party) but most upper class socialites would have never cleared their whole plate. So much food was wasted by the rich!
Eh, neither beef nor butter causes heart disease -- it's carbs/sugar that do that, and Edwardian food was heavy on those too. And rich people didn't exercise. Blast the stupid "food pyramid" which has been making us sick since the 60s.
@@kck9742 This is wrong. Fat is what deteriorates the endothelial layer of the arteries, not 'carbs/sugar'. Wording it that way makes it seem like you don't even know what carbs are. People who eat high fat carnist diets get heart disease, erectile dysfunction, various cancers, diabetes, etc. You're probably thinking, "fat doesn't cause diabetes, sugar does!" Wrong! For a long time people didn't know what caused diabetes, it was a bit of a mystery illness, but over a decade ago we finally got an actual picture (literally an image we can look at thanks to a scanning machine) of what causes it, thanks to modern technology. We now know that diabetes is caused by fat blocking intra-myocellular or hepatic glucose gates which causes them to be unable to respond to insulin. This is insulin resistance, and it can lead to pre-diabetes, and eventually type 2 diabetes. Do you see what happened here, do you see why you and probably everyone you know is wrong about what they think causes diabetes. The inability to process the sugar with the insulin through the glucose gate is the _symptom_ of the illness. The SYMPTOM. Is the common cold the same as sneezing? No. Sneezing is a symptom. The symptom of the illness doesn't _cause_ the illness, that's ass-backwards reasoning. In order for surge to negatively impact someone who's diabetic or pre-diabetic, they need to have diabetes _first!_ If they don't have the fat in the liver or muscles, then they don't have the disease, ergo sugar will effect them normally. Fat causes diabetes, take away the fat (and fructose, which has a lower glycemic level but consumed in vast quantities over time unpaired with fibre it can cause non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and thus lead someone to pre-diabetes. Chances are, anyone eating fructose without consuming whole fruit is also consuming high fat foods) and the diabetes can often be much more easily manages, and non uncommonly completely reversed. Some have been 'cured' eating mostly starches and fruit, and one doctor in the 30s was curing diabetics with apples, rice, and table sugar. So please, don't go off spouting bs nutritional advice when you obviously don't know the first thing about medicine or human nutrition. I eat high carb, consume 0 dietary cholesterol (because humans don't need ANY), I have perfect blood work, and still have a 23" waist after 11 years (I'm short, don't worry). If you want to help people, educate yourself FIRST, don't give people dangerous advice that will lead them to heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes. That's not something I would wish on anyone. I was sorry to hear that Carl Ruiz, and dedicated self-styled "carnivore" (I mean, he wasn't a lion, but hey) died of a heart attack in his mid-40s. That's not normal, and yet it's not unheard of in, say, the US for example, where the government actually teams up with animal ag to create and market stuffed crust pizzas and burgers withe extra cheese or bacon. I'm glad my country revised our guidelines to mostly exclude any animal products and it no longer recommends milk. Stuff is garbage. Literal cancer.
@@kck9742 Edwardians did exercise (well, some did). Exercise for health and pleasure was definitely popularised in the Victorian and Edwardian era. The Titantic had a state of the art (for the time) gym.
It’s funny, but despite wanting to move from the American South because I hate the climate and am not conservative and am not into many cultural hallmarks in my area (hunting, fishing, fourwheeling, mudding, camping), I do love the food, albeit in small portions. So any time I watch stuff like this, I like knowing the details, but like... for a big meal I’d much prefer to just eat a veggie soup, some mashed potatoes, peas, and steamed broccoli, cheesy broccoli casserole, rolls, some catfish, and maybe if I’m feeling spendy, some honey-glazed ham. It’s like steak. I KNOW mentally that some steaks are considered really high quality and are expensive and well-thought of in the steak eating community, but it’s just not my thing. It’s okay, I guess, but nothing special to me, so I’d much rather have the more price conscious common food that I enjoy as much or more with less fuss. For me, videos like this are there but for the grace of God moments, because if I was about to be doomed to a terrible death, this meal would be... even worse. No way. 😂
Came down to say this. They can be the same variety though, courgettes are sometimes baby marrows and sometimes marrows are overgrown courgettes. Marrows are generally much bigger than courgettes, roughly the size of a large butternut squash, if not bigger.
@@x47-r1b Many British English words are derived from Old French as the Normans occupied much of Great Britain about a thousand years ago and subjugated the Germanic inhabitants of the time :)
@@ave3729 Have you never been to a restaurant or had a meal with courses? They arent very large and you don't eat all of it. You can easily do a several course meal and not necessarily be full.
@@caligulalonghbottom2629 correct. I went to a fine restaurant and their portions were small but I was full at the end of the night. I have heard that Europeans asked why Americans eat so much as the plates are always filled with food. The same can be said with wine, they fill almost to the brim. But in fine restaurant they are just under half, in Italy they have a small carafe with wine and you're able to fill your glass to however much you want. I believe they serve the wine very little and bring the carafe with it.
But it wasn't that bad as people make it look🙄 it was actually quite good for what they were paying not to mention they were getting meals and didn't have to take food with them.
Pretty sure WWI “broke out” in Europe in 1914. The USA joined the fight in 1917 and the whole thing ended in 1918. I enjoy your channel and usually find it very accurate.
My Grandfather's cousin was a cook on the Titanic ... Patrick Gill, born in County Kildare, Ireland. I wonder if one of those fellows in the pic near the end was him?
my sister worked at a living history museum and spent the off season doing several course meals like this...I've been to one and you really have to be careful about how much of each thing you eat to get to the end without being full too early.
@Jennie In Michigan I still can't believe people go out to a nice restaurant and get chicken. I mean, I don't dislike chicken, and I cook it/eat it, but I would get beef, fish, or lamb before I'd order chicken.
3rd class: 1st course - vegetable soup. 2nd course - roasted pork with sage and pearl onions, boiled potatoes, sweet peas, cabin biscuits, fresh bread. 3rd course - plum pudding with sweet sauce or oranges. Sumptuous by the standards of what these folks were used to.
@@arachnonixon Here ya go, 2nd class dinner: 1st course - consommé with tapioca. 2nd course - baked haddock with sharp sauce, curried chicken and rice, lamb with mint sauce, roast turkey with savory cranberry sauce, turnip puree, green peas, boiled rick and boiled and roast potatoes. 3rd course - plum pudding with sweet sauce, wine jelly, coconut sandwich, American ice cream, assorted nuts, fresh fruit, cheese and biscuits. Coffee.
You can find both menus online. Both were actually very appetizing and nourishing. Probably more appetizing to our modern sensibilities than in First Class. Second Class had roast turkey and baked haddock, while Third Class served vegetable soup and roast pork.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful menue. The food that was served was truly extrodinary. How beautiful everything was served. Real elegance. It's sad though how many passengers lost their life. May it never happened again, and the lives that were lost may they rest in peace beneath the ocean.
I don't know what it is........but like every single video Lindsay puts out is absolutely fantastic! Not once have I ever been bored or disappointed. I can honestly say that this is one of my all-time fav RUclips channels. Though I must say that this one had me salivating. Should not have watched this on an empty stomach!!!
Burp! Oh pardonnez-moi Madame! Formidable! Un veritable tour de force! Superb documentary, fabulously researched and beautifully illustrated. I appreciate the way you take pains to get your facts straight and you assemble such a wealth of relevant detail. The pictures of the food are a feast for the eyes, I feel as if I’ve eaten a full meal!
@@withgoddess7164 Like the whole fact that no one would've ate for 4 hours, and the dining room was actually being prepared for breakfast during the collision? Or that the courses worked more like a menu?
Depending on portion size and timing, it's not as bad as it seems. I've been blessed to have eaten several multi-course meals of similar opulence in my life. For me, the wine pairing with each course is always the toughest part. I'm a light-weight when it comes to alcohol, so I tend to refrain from that part of the experience. The cheeses and petit four with coffee/cognac course at the end is usually my favorite
I feel bad for you cuz even Titanic's third class menu puts your meal to shame! lol jk, I used to love Ramen noodles and they'd last me and my bank account for a long time. ;b
I never expected to see a little segue to the Romanov family in a video about the food the Titanic served. I learned something new lol. (Also I prefer sweeter wine so I would have been fine with the drinks in Edwardian times. French Ice Cream is probably the best in my opinion.)
Hello Lindsay. Thank you so very much for going to the trouble of compiling this video. I have been thinking of recreating this very menu from Titanic for many years. You have been of great assistance. The bonus for me was at the end, when you recommended the Downtown Abbey cooks recipes. All I have to do is substitute the various wines and ports for todays vintages (being mindful of budget)... and viola! I consider myself to be a proficient home cook, having received many compliments over the years, and will delight in preparing this fare for my friends. Thank you once again. Regards: Tony, Sydney, Australia.
i loved this video! for the longest time, i’ve been so interested in the titanic, the culture surrounding it and the sinking. naturally, titanic (1997) is my favorite film of all time! the way you also incorporated the history of the food as well was soo interesting. wonderful video
with those FULL course meal, one could survive a month without eating anything.... geez that's a lot of food. even a single serving of each of those appetizer will make me full immediately without going through the main course
AlphaIkaros it really wouldn’t have, the portions were very small in comparison to today. It would be enough for you to have a taste of the food and people didn’t finish the entire plate. The meal would have gone on for several hours with rests between each course.
This is such an excellently made video!! I really enjoyed it. I've been so interested in the Titanic since I was a little kid and I love seeing these meals recreated. It makes all of it seem much more real. Thank you for making this!
By 11:40pm, the dining room was already closed and the waiting staff were setting up for breakfast. Most of the passengers were in bed during the iceberg collision.
Always been fascinated with the Titanic history. This afternoon I was reading about it and it showed menus of the first and third class. Your video made it come to life. Thank you for sharing a nice video of their last meal. Stay safe and healthy 🤗😷🤗
This story is an example of the wrath that is afflicted on the ultra decadent rich when they challenge the divine while indulging like no one else before them or after them
I’ve always been drawn to it as well. I read A Night to Remember and kept apace with the actual sinking last year on the anniversary. It’s something I hope to share with my guy at least once in our lives together. All of those people, and such a drastic change in circumstances, so quickly. It’s terrible.
Let's not forget the mad lad Charles Joughin "had a drop of liqueur" before possibly being the last person to see Dr. William O'Loughlin alive as he was coming up the stairs from his quarters, throwing what he could into the water, casually strolled up the ship as it listed to port, let himself go with the ship as it went below the surface (think of it like an elevator), and then casually swam about with a mostly dry head. He has the reputation as being the last survivor of the Titanic to leave the ship.
scrollcaps Don’t worry, the butter in food was very much an early 20th century thing. dishes lathered in buttery sauce is what you get at Belle Époque type restaurants, but heavy sauce is not as popular popular since the healthy food revolutions. Escoffier is mentioned in the video, he was cool for a bit but his style is largely seen as too heavy nowadays. An indulgence really.
Your lactose intolerance is more than likely a by-product of the processed, sugar-and-salted, artificially flavored and preserved American diet specially seasoned with pesticides and antibiotics. And that's just on the "fresh, organic" menu, never mind what the peasants are served. In Europe, fresh means it was on the farm yesterday.

"Though King Edward had died of a DOUBLE heart attack in 1910...."
Well, if he ate anything like Titanic's 1st class menu every single day, that's not surprising. :v
The Red Sterling Mc'Bae But he died in the midst of a constitutional crisis, with debates over whether the House of Lords or the House of Commons was the superior in power, until the Parliament Act of 1911 declaring the supremacy of the House of Commons. Let’s just say it was the start of the shitshow that was all of the 20th century for Britain
@TheRenaissanceman65 I was about to say. I was like..."huh? And?" XD
@Susan Ananda Nah, going by his pic, he was a pretty chonky boi for his day.
How does one even have a double heart attack in the first place? Was King Edward a time lord with two hearts?

As a French chef in the US the menu sounds heaven. You have to remember that these meals in first class lasted several hours and they did not finish their plates as it was not polite to do so. Many high end restaurants like Mélisse/Citrin in Santa Monica offer a 9 course menu with 5 appetizers/canapés. Also course 4 Th. and 5 Th. is a choice of dishes not all of them. Portions were smaller as well. In France we can sit 5 hours for dinner and have a wonderful time. We take our time. Plates were smaller an so were the glasses. Large plates and glasses started appearing in the 80's. I miss these classics when i go out. I have to make them at home
There were no Shows,no casinos, no cinema ,so the evening entertainment was the Dinner and chsts after that over sigars and brandy, and for the women other refreshments. More of stretching the evening and breaks between the courses. Careme and Escoffier did much we take for gramted to day .
@@MrPh30 but they also had music and did convos
My mother taught us not to eat the last bite, while at the same time, telling us children were starving. Lolz
No. They did not last several hours. It was a public place, not Mrs. Vanderbilt’s annual ball in New York or Newport. Plus let’s not forget that for people prone to seasickness an ocean crossing was an endurance test and some probably never even made it to the dining room.
I'd be bored
I’m exhausted from just listening 😭 sound delicious though not gonna lie
If you think the food was exhausting, try the brain damaging level of etiquette at an Edwardian table and how you’d have to bring your A game just to avoid being shunned ..for hours at a time. Every. Single. Day.
“Dear God! Did you see Lady Applebottom’s back touch the chair two hours into the 8th course?! What a disgrace! I’m afraid she’s always been dead common.”

Sounds pretty gross, wouldn't touch any of it tbh.

@@rayjohnson3179 there probably are not many records that were kept about the the third class on the count of them being poor people, I suppose you could have better luck the second class as they were working class
Let's all remember portion sizes of that era were much smaller than we have today. While it seems lie a lot of food, it was not a very big portion.
No wonder the ship split in two.
Hahaha. I shouldn't have chuckled from that
omg. I feel terrible for laughing at this
Shameless 😆
Lmaoo
😂😂😂😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Crikey, how on earth did these people manage to eat TEN courses of food?! When I eat at a restaurant, I generally only have a main course and a dessert because starters tend to fill me up before I have my main meal.
They were smaller portions and usually eaten in 3-5 hours between sit down conversation. It was more a social excercise.
They only ate one bite, if they showed that they were actually HUNGRY they would be looked down upon because that would mean they didn't have money and also, the meal would last hours
Lionstar16
Meals lasted for many hours and portions were quite small.
even today, super wealthy ppl I've known who were born into it would order like half the menu, & just eat a little bit of each item. I'm guessing it was no different back then for society's elite
We have more than that in a Brazilian steakhouse or family barbecue. We eat for hours!
With 11 courses, most people would probably just taste each dish.
I saw a recreation of the Titanic meals. The portion sizes were estimated to be somewhat smaller than we might use today. It was more about enjoying a variety of tastes expertly prepared than it was about the quantity of food. Besides you were supposed to be engaging in good conversation and witty banter throughout the evening.
Amuse bouche or tapas size I’m betting.
Dinner generally started at 6:30pm and finished with coffee, cigars and petit fours close to midnight. This was also at a time when your girth was an indication of your success!
These were tiny portions actually, since there were so many courses. Probably only an ounce or 2 ounces at most. (Jan Griffiths).
People would pick and choose the multitude of dishes and very rarely eat the Full Monty, as Edward VII invariably did. Gourmet meals like these are still offered in posh restaurants and hotels today but you are more likely to get sick from all the different alcoholic drinks that are served with the dishes then from trying to eat everything that is served.

Well, if I were a time traveler going back to have a last dinner on the Titanic and then shadow the head baker as the ship sank, you bet I'd be eating well at dinner to have something to burn and keep me warm in the water!
I can't eat more than two dishes at any meal. omg, rich Edwardian's stomach were amazing.
Each dish would’ve been pretty small, plus alcohol diminishes diet
Gigi Tutillo the portions were quite small. But I still don’t know. When you wear a corset the main thing I notice is you get full quicker because your stomach can’t expand so much, and almost all of the women would’ve been wearing corset from age 17 and older of all classes.
@@commonomicsYou mean 24 inches? that's not even that small, though…. wtf?
C Elizabeth
A woman commonly reduced her waist size by 4” using a corset; most corsets from the the late Victorian and Edwardian eras fall in the range of 20”-26” at the waist, putting the majority of natural waist sizes between 24” and 30”. Many women in those eras easily fitted into 24” dresses; it was middle of range.
Gigi Tutillo It was actually considered very bad etiquette for ladies to eat a lot at dinner. :) The polite and ladylike thing was to eat a few mouthfuls of every course (if you refused something altogether that was considered rude too, especially if you were at a home dinner party) but most upper class socialites would have never cleared their whole plate. So much food was wasted by the rich!
After seeing that menu with all the beef, cream, and butter, I can understand why King Edward had a double heart attack.
Eh, neither beef nor butter causes heart disease -- it's carbs/sugar that do that, and Edwardian food was heavy on those too. And rich people didn't exercise. Blast the stupid "food pyramid" which has been making us sick since the 60s.
@@kck9742 This is wrong. Fat is what deteriorates the endothelial layer of the arteries, not 'carbs/sugar'. Wording it that way makes it seem like you don't even know what carbs are. People who eat high fat carnist diets get heart disease, erectile dysfunction, various cancers, diabetes, etc.
You're probably thinking, "fat doesn't cause diabetes, sugar does!" Wrong! For a long time people didn't know what caused diabetes, it was a bit of a mystery illness, but over a decade ago we finally got an actual picture (literally an image we can look at thanks to a scanning machine) of what causes it, thanks to modern technology. We now know that diabetes is caused by fat blocking intra-myocellular or hepatic glucose gates which causes them to be unable to respond to insulin. This is insulin resistance, and it can lead to pre-diabetes, and eventually type 2 diabetes. Do you see what happened here, do you see why you and probably everyone you know is wrong about what they think causes diabetes. The inability to process the sugar with the insulin through the glucose gate is the _symptom_ of the illness. The SYMPTOM. Is the common cold the same as sneezing? No. Sneezing is a symptom. The symptom of the illness doesn't _cause_ the illness, that's ass-backwards reasoning. In order for surge to negatively impact someone who's diabetic or pre-diabetic, they need to have diabetes _first!_ If they don't have the fat in the liver or muscles, then they don't have the disease, ergo sugar will effect them normally. Fat causes diabetes, take away the fat (and fructose, which has a lower glycemic level but consumed in vast quantities over time unpaired with fibre it can cause non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and thus lead someone to pre-diabetes. Chances are, anyone eating fructose without consuming whole fruit is also consuming high fat foods) and the diabetes can often be much more easily manages, and non uncommonly completely reversed. Some have been 'cured' eating mostly starches and fruit, and one doctor in the 30s was curing diabetics with apples, rice, and table sugar.
So please, don't go off spouting bs nutritional advice when you obviously don't know the first thing about medicine or human nutrition. I eat high carb, consume 0 dietary cholesterol (because humans don't need ANY), I have perfect blood work, and still have a 23" waist after 11 years (I'm short, don't worry). If you want to help people, educate yourself FIRST, don't give people dangerous advice that will lead them to heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes. That's not something I would wish on anyone. I was sorry to hear that Carl Ruiz, and dedicated self-styled "carnivore" (I mean, he wasn't a lion, but hey) died of a heart attack in his mid-40s. That's not normal, and yet it's not unheard of in, say, the US for example, where the government actually teams up with animal ag to create and market stuffed crust pizzas and burgers withe extra cheese or bacon. I'm glad my country revised our guidelines to mostly exclude any animal products and it no longer recommends milk. Stuff is garbage. Literal cancer.
@@venus_envy Go ahead and listen to government, because they certainly have your best interest at heart. That was sarcasm.
@@kck9742 Edwardians did exercise (well, some did). Exercise for health and pleasure was definitely popularised in the Victorian and Edwardian era. The Titantic had a state of the art (for the time) gym.
@@kck9742 You're right. Let these people believe what they want. Sugar and carbs are killing us. Not butter and beef.
As a chef myself, I loved your accuracy and completeness. Excellent!
I watch this whenever I feel like am about to break my diet. 5 minutes in and feel full.
It’s funny, but despite wanting to move from the American South because I hate the climate and am not conservative and am not into many cultural hallmarks in my area (hunting, fishing, fourwheeling, mudding, camping), I do love the food, albeit in small portions. So any time I watch stuff like this, I like knowing the details, but like... for a big meal I’d much prefer to just eat a veggie soup, some mashed potatoes, peas, and steamed broccoli, cheesy broccoli casserole, rolls, some catfish, and maybe if I’m feeling spendy, some honey-glazed ham.
It’s like steak. I KNOW mentally that some steaks are considered really high quality and are expensive and well-thought of in the steak eating community, but it’s just not my thing. It’s okay, I guess, but nothing special to me, so I’d much rather have the more price conscious common food that I enjoy as much or more with less fuss.
For me, videos like this are there but for the grace of God moments, because if I was about to be doomed to a terrible death, this meal would be... even worse. No way. 😂

'Marrow' isn't the British English name for zucchini, it's 'courgette'. A marrow is a similar but different vegetable altogether
Came down to say this. They can be the same variety though, courgettes are sometimes baby marrows and sometimes marrows are overgrown courgettes. Marrows are generally much bigger than courgettes, roughly the size of a large butternut squash, if not bigger.
They also said that WWI began in 1918 at the start of the video so…

@@ave3729 Have you never been to a restaurant or had a meal with courses? They arent very large and you don't eat all of it. You can easily do a several course meal and not necessarily be full.
@@caligulalonghbottom2629 correct. I went to a fine restaurant and their portions were small but I was full at the end of the night. I have heard that Europeans asked why Americans eat so much as the plates are always filled with food. The same can be said with wine, they fill almost to the brim. But in fine restaurant they are just under half, in Italy they have a small carafe with wine and you're able to fill your glass to however much you want. I believe they serve the wine very little and bring the carafe with it.
This is like listening to a 10 page research paper. Very informative.

*THE CHICKEN BREAST WASN'T THE MAIN COURSE?!*
@Jennie In Michigan I still can't believe people go out to a nice restaurant and get chicken. I mean, I don't dislike chicken, and I cook it/eat it, but I would get beef, fish, or lamb before I'd order chicken.
Poultry was expensive before factory farming started in the 1940s (or thereabouts).
Also, chickens were MUCH MUCH smaller back then. It wouldn't have been the big, honkin' industrial bred chickens we have now.
KCK I feel that way about cupcakes.
They were A cups.
I've had this menu - absolutely DELICIOUS and the height of decadence!
I look forward to enjoying this dinner in the future!
That's first class meal. It would be interesting to see/to know what they server to third class: black pudding? potato soup?
I'm interested in the 2nd class passenger's menu. all we ever hear about the titanic is relative to 1st or 3rd class
3rd class: 1st course - vegetable soup. 2nd course - roasted pork with sage and pearl onions, boiled potatoes, sweet peas, cabin biscuits, fresh bread. 3rd course - plum pudding with sweet sauce or oranges. Sumptuous by the standards of what these folks were used to.
@@arachnonixon Here ya go, 2nd class dinner: 1st course - consommé with tapioca. 2nd course - baked haddock with sharp sauce, curried chicken and rice, lamb with mint sauce, roast turkey with savory cranberry sauce, turnip puree, green peas, boiled rick and boiled and roast potatoes. 3rd course - plum pudding with sweet sauce, wine jelly, coconut sandwich, American ice cream, assorted nuts, fresh fruit, cheese and biscuits.

@@kck9742 thanks alot for the info! that all sounds really good to me. I'd rather have a 3 course meal anyways than have to sit there for hours
You can find both menus online. Both were actually very appetizing and nourishing. Probably more appetizing to our modern sensibilities than in First Class. Second Class had roast turkey and baked haddock, while Third Class served vegetable soup and roast pork.
They were too drunk to leave the ship

Depending on portion size and timing, it's not as bad as it seems. I've been blessed to have eaten several multi-course meals of similar opulence in my life. For me, the wine pairing with each course is always the toughest part. I'm a light-weight when it comes to alcohol, so I tend to refrain from that part of the experience. The cheeses and petit four with coffee/cognac course at the end is usually my favorite
"At least those who lost their lives on that fateful night went down after a truly spectacular meal". what a relief

I consider myself to be a proficient home cook, having received many compliments over the years, and will delight in preparing this fare for my friends. Thank you once again.

Anyone ate all that would go straight to the bottom of the ocean when the ship sank. I'm assuming no one ate more than a few bites of everything. Lol
I don't know. Fat is very buoyant. They would have floated and froze to death.
Im sure titanics toilets got a good workout shortly after supper...probly why she sank so fast...all that sewage weighed her down.
The portions were very small, so they could eat all the courses.

Always been fascinated with the Titanic history. This afternoon I was reading about it and it showed menus of the first and third class. Your video made it come to life. Thank you for sharing a nice video of their last meal. Stay safe and healthy 🤗😷🤗
This story is an example of the wrath that is afflicted on the ultra decadent rich when they challenge the divine while indulging like no one else before them or after them
I’ve always been drawn to it as well. I read A Night to Remember and kept apace with the actual sinking last year on the anniversary. It’s something I hope to share with my guy at least once in our lives together. All of those people, and such a drastic change in circumstances, so quickly. It’s terrible.
Wow this video was well put together! Instant subscribe
Final course: "Icy Atlantic Water served with BUTTER"
Except for Captain Smith. He ate crow.
So she's just going to keep on going after saying oyster ice cream
Let's not forget the mad lad Charles Joughin "had a drop of liqueur" before possibly being the last person to see Dr. William O'Loughlin alive as he was coming up the stairs from his quarters, throwing what he could into the water, casually strolled up the ship as it listed to port, let himself go with the ship as it went below the surface (think of it like an elevator), and then casually swam about with a mostly dry head. He has the reputation as being the last survivor of the Titanic to leave the ship.
I just became 75% more lactose intolerant than I already was. I can never go to France, even if we're allowed to leave our houses someday.

Don’t worry, the butter in food was very much an early 20th century thing. dishes lathered in buttery sauce is what you get at Belle Époque type restaurants, but heavy sauce is not as popular popular since the healthy food revolutions. Escoffier is mentioned in the video, he was cool for a bit but his style is largely seen as too heavy nowadays. An indulgence really.
Your lactose intolerance is more than likely a by-product of the processed, sugar-and-salted, artificially flavored and preserved American diet specially seasoned with pesticides and antibiotics. And that's just on the "fresh, organic" menu, never mind what the peasants are served. In Europe, fresh means it was on the farm yesterday.
