How hungry was the guy who discovered sweet breads, escargot, or truffles?

Nah, you'd just have to have made it/discovered it. Like escargot. If I was the first person to throw a snail in boiling water (or however it's made) I would not be the first to eat it. It looks disgusting. I'd probably pawn the taste-testing off on someone else, but I could still claim the rights to my creation.

Cheese was referenced as a food 4000 years ago in Egypt, I think. Back then, they ate practically anything.
How would you like to be the guy who discovered poison ivy didn't make a good salad?

Maybe, but I'll get somebody else to try it at the same time I'm tasting it.

He may have invented it but didn't realize that it could actually be eaten...you think?
I'd say he was desperately hungry!

Are you kidding, I would have my husband try it first. Then a trusting neighbor, if they both survived then I would try it.
