Given the hygiene and food safety during the Victorian era, a taco bell burrito would be the cleanest food that child has ever eaten.
Sure, but the bacteria they’d be used to from back then would probably be fairly different from the bacteria we’re used to today.
Counter point, that kid is not ready for advanced spices like cumin.
Cumin has been used as a spice in the Middle East and India for 1000s of years and was introduced to the Americas by the Spanish in the 1500s.
Counterpoint: British Food
You mean chicken tikka masala?
Wasn’t that when Europe was colonizing everyone to get spices?
Spice was for trade, not food from my understanding.
Victorian recipies use cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, mace, and long pepper pretty often.
I think surviving recipes are almost all upper-class food, so regular people maybe used more salt and herbs than actual spices.
And vinegar
Imagine if that child grew up and invented Taco Bell, they truely won the franchise wars by using time travel.
