I enjoy cooking and reading about historical recipes and cooking techniques and even trying some of them. Some of those recipes are enough to have you wondering how any one survived eating them.
One example would be
The Whole Duty of a Woman which is downloadable. The text is pretty grotty but since the original dates from 1707, that's not all that surprising.
