I have this little list, but I would definitely check these dates. I seem
to recall it being cobbled together from the Food Timeline or some such,
which is suspect at best for accuracy. But, it gives you a starting place.
I thought I had more on this particular issue, but I can't find it just now,
you should definitely check out the Florilegium.
Good Luck!

Ok, since I am here to learn and, forgive me,
while I'm not a bad cook at home I am no feast chef,
Everybody has to start somewhere, right?
So this brings up a question....what KIND of cheeses are best, worst,
unacceptable
At feasts.
While I'm on the subject...I need to learn about period appetizers...(and
quickly) any suggestions? Resources?
I'm usually in a feast kitchen to clean up, I'm in awe of you all.
