Who was the first human to think of drinking the stuff thats comes out of a cow. ( that is the underneath bit ;) )
When did people start to put fungus in their bread to make it rise and what prmpted it.
Who tasted the gone off milk and decided it was rather nice.
I don't sleep much as u can see and my head is full of silly questions, but i often imagine the guy watching a calf drink and thinking ' I wonder what that tastes like'.
Thanks for ur time
