We’re here to stir the pot with this reel about the origins of some of your favorite foods. And we start with a controversial question: Are Swedish meatballs really Swedish? Oh yeah, we go there. Next, we dive into the shady backstory behind fondue and the brilliant thinking that gave us Sunday hangover brunches. Hungry for more? Tempura didn’t originate in Japan. That’s right. And hold onto your teacups—the British tea tradition was brought to England by a royal from another country.
