EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library takes us back to a time of culinary exploration and the unexpected horrors that could come with it. In this image, we are confronted with a bowl of soup containing vermicelli noodles - seemingly harmless at first glance. However, upon closer inspection, we discover something truly unsettling: worms wriggling amidst the broth. Dating back to 1830, this historical snapshot captures the shock and disgust that foreign foods could elicit in unsuspecting diners. The caption "Water I do declare - with worms in it." perfectly encapsulates the revulsion one might feel upon discovering such an unappetizing surprise in their meal. The unconventional nature of this dish serves as a stark reminder of how different cultures approach food and drink, highlighting the importance of being open-minded when trying new culinary experiences. It also sheds light on the challenges faced by travelers encountering unfamiliar cuisines throughout history. As we gaze upon this eerie scene, we can't help but be grateful for modern food safety standards and regulations that protect us from such stomach-churning encounters. This print is not just a visual representation of foreign fare gone wrong; it's a testament to the resilience and adaptability of human beings when faced with adversity - even if that adversity comes in the form of worms in our soup.
