#2.) Glicked = The movies Gladiator II + Wicked.

I've come to the conclusion that British food is basically a combination of the best ancient foods + some new world stuff. The real European diet is basically the British one.

To think anyone was a vegetarian or vegan before 200 years ago just isn’t using your brain, there would be no way to get enough calories and nutrients to power any human much less a soldier

It's always fun to hear people talk about meat as the protein was the only thing we actually need out of it. The fat is even more important than the protein. If one ate a diet solely of rabbit one would die, but people can and have lived on beef for years at a time. Meat – it's more than just protein… and it's what's for dinner.

Some Good Lucanica and wine.. and I’m good.. 😂😊❤

I think I'll stick to the plain old American diet of burgers and fries.
It'll keep you up if you can keep it down!

So they did not use yeast to make their bread ?

If you make your voice less weird, I'll subscribe

Before we get started, just to point out that Roman soldiers were NOT "legionaires" as you keep saying. They were legionaries (as in the subtitles).
Legionaire is a French word for soldiers in the French Foreign Legion, and a very recent name. It seems as if the word "legionaire" has crept into mainly American literature and has become almost "acceptable" usage. However it is still wrong to refer to a member of a Roman Legion as a legionaire – the correct term is legionary.
Bread: Roman legionaries were divided into contubernia (a contubernium is a 8-man unit, plus 2 slaves and one or more pack animals, usually donkeys or mules – horses were not suitable and needed complicated diets). One of the most important items to be carried by the pack animal was the contubernium's grinding stone, and was used to grind their grain into flour for all 10 people. So, there were no long queues.

Some medieval pics in there..get it right please

one correction: legionaries didn't grind their own grain every day.
it was generally the task of one soldier per contubernium to grind the flour.
there is also evidence that the legionaries would sometimes grind flour to last multiple days.

also roman legions didn't usually steal food, more often they bought it from willing suppliers close to market value. although they did have authority to seize food from those unwilling to sell to them, when necessary.
when in enemy territory however plundering was commonplace.
