What tasty morsels of food accompanied the conversations of these most significant minds in Western philosophy? Now picture yourself as you sat for a symposium with Cicero, or Pliny the Elder or Julius Caesar. The opulent feasts of the decadent Romans! Maybe, you're following Alexander the Great during his military campaigns in Asia for ten years. Conquering the vast Persian empire, while discovering new foods. Or try and picture the richness of fruits and vegetables in the lush Hanging Gardens of Babylon. What foods did our ancestors ate? How did all begin? Who was the first to write a recipe down and why?
