Yes, if you can simply get across that just because a food is served in
the Middle East today, or is "traditional" Middle Eastern doesn't mean
it was period or served the same way then, you will be making a big
step forward. While this idea is slowing sinking in across the Known
World for period European food, for some reason it seems to take longer
for folks to understand that this applies to other cultures as well.
This goes for clothing as well.
