Manage episode 416919957 series 3247551
We've heard about the storming of the Bastille, the countless heads that rolled off the guillotine, and Marie Antoinette's famous "Let them eat cake!" but what role did food and produce play during the French Revolution?
Did crop failures lead to a 'hangry' mob of peasants? Why did vegetarianism become associated with revolutionaries?
Join John and Patrick as they discuss the unique perspective of this epic event through the lens of food and produce.
