Well, no matter how painful the process is, now that your clothes have been taken off and your hair and body hair have been shaved, what tests await you next?

This one...... You'll also need a pair of sturdy, hard-wearing iron and copper teeth, as well as an equally strong and durable steel gut.

Well? Was the food culture of ancient Egypt so miserable?

Not really, in fact, Egyptians are very good at enjoying life. Thanks to the abundant produce of the Nile Valley, while the Greeks and Romans were still drinking the blood of the Rumao, the Egyptians already had bread, and it was a high-quality dessert bread mixed with butter, honey and spices.

Beer was another staple food of the Egyptians - unlike the modern beer, which produced a lot of bubbles, the beer of the ancient Egyptians was thicker, contained many solids, and was high in nutrients, more like modern porridge (with a little more honey is sweet wine).

In addition to the two basic configurations of bread and beer, the ancient Egyptians also invented cakes with dates and honey, and wine as a high-end beverage. In addition, there are roasted whole beef, roast duck, roast goose, roast pigeon, roast pork choplet, grilled fish, thick soup, mixed vegetables, raisins, dried dates, fruit platter...... Basically, all kinds of basic dishes of Western food in the future can be found in ancient Egypt.

Unfortunately, the ancient Egyptians only invented dishes, but not cutlery, and the traversers had to eat directly with their fingers, just like modern Indians. By the time the first tableware was brought to the banks of the Nile by the Persians and Greeks, ancient Egypt in the traditional sense had basically ended.

What's even more regrettable is that although these meals are exquisite, because the wind and sand in Egypt are too strong, some sand is more or less dropped into it during cooking, and no matter how you prevent it, you can't clean it.

Bread, a staple food of the Egyptians, was a major health hazard because of its rough baking conditions - bread specimens taken from ancient Egyptian tombs show that the bread contained a lot of mixed content, including large amounts of sand, hand-ground fragments used to grind flour and the remains of warehouses......

Although the Egyptians succeeded in turning bread baking into a craft, creating more than 50 different types of bread - round, square, twisted, animal-shaped...... But there is no way to clean the sand in the bread.

The hard quartz sand abrasively abrased the enamel layer of the Egyptians' teeth, causing tooth decay and then ulceration of the dental nerve. In the most severe cases, it can even induce sepsis and lead to death - the famous Pharaoh Ramses II died of tooth decay.

Not only was the food so unhealthy in ancient Egypt, but it was also a problem with drinking water - as we all know, Egyptians relied on the Nile River to drink water. The water of the Nile in Upper Egypt is relatively clear and suitable for drinking. But in Lower Egypt in the delta, especially near the mouth of the sea, the river slows down and becomes muddy. The rich people in the area would pour this muddy water into the pond and slowly settle it, and then use the clean water on it, but the poor people could not be so particular...... As a result, various gastrointestinal parasitic diseases are rampant all year round.
