Food is one of the basic necessities of life. Finding, growing, preserving, storing, trading, and eating it have driven the course of human history. The need to eat and the desire to eat something pleasant have encouraged meetings of cultures and exchanges of ideas. Looking into the tasty history of food will allow us to better understand how food has shaped the world and our history. More than 12,500 years ago, humans transitioned from chasing their food around to growing it where they could settle. It is difficult to say which particular plant was the very first to be farmed, but there are a few crops that archaeologists believe sparked the Agricultural Revolution. The Agricultural Revolution refers to the prehistoric transition from hunting and gathering societies to agricultural ones. It is believed to have taken place in the fertile region of Mesopotamia, between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.

In a region near the Middle East, called the "Fertile Crescent," the earliest known wheat was domesticated and grown in about 8500 BCE. It spread west to Greece and to Germany over a period of about 2,000 years. China and Southeast Asia seem to have been the center of the cultivation of rice about 7000 BCE. Moreover, corn was first grown in Central America around 8000 BCE. Modern people would probably not even recognize the earliest strains of rice and corn, to say nothing of enjoying their taste. However, they are nonetheless the source of our modern cuisine. Farming allowed people to settle down instead of moving around all the time. This new sedentary lifestyle allowed humans to develop settlements with higher populations, division of labor, trade, political structures, writing, and much more. In times of abundance, settling and farming yielded a surplus of food, and thus certain societies were able to expand their horizons and meet other groups of people. This resulted in trade and the exchange of ideas, languages, and traditions. Such meetings also resulted in war, the expansion of influence, and cultural domination. At around 1200 CE, Genghis Khan united the numerous small tribes of Northeast Asia under the Mongol Empire. At its peak, it stretched from west to east from Central Europe to the East Sea, north into Siberia, and south into India. Genghis Khan needed a massive, mobile army in order to maintain his empire, and this army needed to be fed enormous amounts of food. Khan and his advisers needed to develop a system to cure and dry meat so that calorie-dense, healthy food could be preserved and easily transported over long distances. The result was meat jerky similar to that which is available today at a convenience store near you!

Khan's army cut long, thin strips of donkey and cow meat, and salted them in small bowls, after which the strips were air-dried and possibly roasted over a fire. The result was surprisingly delicious and contained enough nutrition to sustain an entire army. The ancient methods of preserving food such as salting, drying, and smoking have not changed for thousands of years. One additional method was introduced in the early 19th century and has been a game-changer: canning. Canning dates back to the Napoleonic Wars when the French government offered a large reward to anyone who could find a way to effectively preserve food. This would allow an army to be not only healthier but also better able to fight in tougher conditions. Different types of the canned foods we enjoy today were originally developed to support the needs of the military.

Spices made food taste good, leading to an era of exploration and discovery. With demand for spices growing in the early 15th century Europe, many explorers began long sea voyages in search of spices, which lasted for about 200 years. Columbus from Italy ended up going west to the Americas; Da Gama from Portugal discovered the first sea route to India; and Magellan from Portugal went east and was the first to sail around the world. On land, the Silk Road carried spices and many other trade goods between Asia and the Middle East. A search for ways to make food taste better sparked a global trade network which many historians agree eventually resulted in intellectual and cultural exchange, diplomacy, conflict, and wealth. When Christopher Columbus arrived in the Bahamas, southeast of Florida, he believed it was a part of India. Later, people used the term West Indies to differentiate the region from the real India. For example, pepper is a very common spice all over the world today; however, an ancient Roman cook could not just go to the grocery store to get some. The Romans had a flourishing spice trade with India, but acquiring pepper was difficult and costly, leading to myths about how dangerous it was to harvest. In fact, some stories said that pepper trees in India were protected by poisonous snakes. They had to be scared away by burning the trees, which gave the peppercorn its black color. These kinds of fantastic stories maintained the charm of the spice, and they also enabled pepper investors to strengthen their hold on the prized commodity.

Technological progress, human curiosity, and the determination to explore moved people all over the world. This movement of people also meant that more and more people from different backgrounds would come together. The tasty history of food also includes what happens when cuisine and culture intertwine. The story of pizza reveals how food evolves over time because of the creativity of people. Tomatoes were brought to Europe from the Americas in the 16th century, but many Europeans believed them to be poisonous. Some poor people in Naples, Italy, in the late 18th century, maybe out of curiosity or necessity, began to use tomatoes as a bread topping. It tasted good, so tourists were attracted to the area to try this specialty. This was probably how pizza was born. Immigration in the 19th century brought pizza to the United States and Canada, increasing its popularity and sparking the creation of regional recipes like Chicago deep dish or New York pizza. Food gives strength, helps people fight, and evolves over time. It is also an intriguing way to learn about history. With the world becoming a smaller place and more and more varieties of foods being invented, it's no wonder that many people take vacations where the focus is on their stomachs. When they try a local dish for the first time, they feel an intimate connection with the unique history of that particular place. Food: what a wonderful, tasty way to learn about people and the history of the world.

War might seem like a time for hate and conflict. However, even during the darkest of times, there is still room for charity and humanity. We see this in the story of Elisabeth Vincken, who made a decision that warmed the hearts of sworn enemies during a time of war. On Christmas Eve, 1944, German and American soldiers fought in one of the biggest battles of World War II near the town of Aachen, Germany. With the safety of her family being put at risk by remaining in the city, Elisabeth Vincken and her son decided to take shelter in a small cabin in the woods. Elisabeth waited for her husband to return from work as she prepared a simple Christmas dinner of roast chicken and potatoes. When the sun went down, there was a knock at the door. Elisabeth opened the door to find three American soldiers, one badly wounded. They asked if they could come in, and Elisabeth politely invited them in to the warmth of the cabin despite the fact that they were enemy soldiers. They were in need, and she was a charitable person. Suddenly there was another knock at the door: it was four German soldiers. The thought that she might be jailed for harboring enemy soldiers came to mind, but she calmly explained that the Americans were desperate and it was Christmas Eve, so she took them in. One German soldier stared intently and then finally said, "It's Christmas. There will be no shooting here." That Christmas Eve, enemy soldiers gathered together and shared a meal. In the morning, they thanked the woman for her kindness and courage, picked up their guns, and returned to the war. The brief, beautiful moment of peace in the middle of that chaos was over.
