    Fun video, but one thing was wrong: Pot pies. Pot pies are supposed to have the filling cooked in a pot or dish and just one crust on top. If it has a bottom and top crust, it's just supposed to be called a pie. So, all those Banquet Frozen Chicken Pot Pies are incorrectly named. They should just be Chicken Pies. However, as we've gotten so far down away from the original definition, one might as well just throw in the towel on correcting this.

    2:10 right so, this bit you guys got wrong. Majority of turn of the century immigration from Italy did not come from the north, mainly southern Italy and Sicily. So they didn’t bring the pizza crazy with them as you’re stating. Rather it wasn’t until WW2 and millions of GI’s who fought and occupied Italy came home and brought the taste of pizza with them. What came after was a boom time in pizza shops opening all over the country. I like pizza, so I’ve dug a bit in my time.

    Lovely misleading title you came up with. How does a (possibly mythic) origin story of tea tell us what it "originally" tasted like? Saying what foods "originally" tasted like implies both that they tasted different than the version we consume today and that you're _actually going to tell us_ what they originally tasted like.
