Maybe I should have used a stronger word than 'unfamiliar'. Foods that
violate the cultural mores that we grew up with, dividing sweet from
savory, etc., tend to be less appealing to the stressed stomach. Medieval
people wouldn't have had that problem, because the pies, etc. were things
THEY had grown up with and were part of their culture.

" Oh, Adam was a gardener, and God who made him sees 
That half a proper gardener's work is done upon his knees, 
So when your work is finished, you can wash your hands and pray
For the Glory of the Garden, that it may not pass away!" -- Kipling
