The Food Timeline not only shows when certain foods were first used for human consumption, but also contains links for the history of most foods featured. For example: did you know that a botanist wrote about seeing 100 pounds radishes in 1544? That ancient Egyptians used marshmallows and licorice for medicine? Fascinating! Link -via Cynical-C
