@@joedemelfie5509 lol I'd be down for it even tho Halloween would be the hardest month ever cause of Harry Potter fans alone coming in for butter beer and pumpkin pastries while Easter could be Alice in wonderland and etc. Idk you'd have to decide if you want a cafe and do what I was just writing about or a restaurant with a whole dining experience. I've always wanted to see a game of thrones or Lord of the rings feasts which Lord of the rings you could do hobbits one season while elves in another but that kinda goes with medieval dining experiences which we have nothing like that in Western PA but I know Myrtle Beach SC does. Probably be easier to do a cafe and that way you could actually change the menu monthly while a restaurant is more permanent even with seasonal influences so more limited. Idk you'd have to design the place while location is everything. Cafes do better near colleges or where there is alot of foot traffic with a younger crowd while restaurants have more flexibility in location and age group. Designing the place while not getting sued could be a problem as well that's where the cafe would be much easier if you went with a bookstore vibe but hard to make sure not confused as a generic coffee shop.

note that Tolkien used "corn" in the old english sense, that of a non-specific term for grain (be it spelt, wheat, millet, etc) the term 'corn' would only come to be attached to the new world plant Maize because the european colonists largely didn't bother to learn the native term for it and used the general term "corn" for it. (whether Maize existed in Arda is unknown. given that Tobacco, Tomatoes, and Potatoes exist despite being new world crops, that maize is present wouldn't be a big stretch, but we have no specific mention of it) also it seems very likely that the "petty dwarf roots" of Mim may well have been a form of Potatoes, given its description. If so, presumably hobbits or men rediscovered the plant at some point after mim and the other Petty-dwarves died off.
@cantide8405 4 жыл бұрын
On the subject of New World plants like tobacco, tomatoes and potatoes appearing in Middle Earth, I've always assumed that these plants basically went extinct in their native habitats at some point in the Fourth Age, only surviving in the Undying Lands from samples brought and cultivated there by some of those who Went West (elves, a notable dwarf, a few hobbits, and one pesky wizard who'd developed a taste for the hobbit leaf), where they were essentially rediscovered after it became possible to sail west for those who weren't elves.
@glitterboy2098 4 жыл бұрын
@@cantide8405 the cosmology doesn't quite work that way, and tolkien was pretty clear about that. after the bending of the world at the end of the 2nd age, Valinor and "the west" was literally removed from the now round planet, and what was left bent to create a spherical world. Valinor basically became "heaven" existing in its own reality unconnected to the physical world. only the elves, riding in specific types of ships could still sail an unbent path to leave the physical world and reach valinor. it never became possible for humans to sail to valinor after that. humans sailing westward would just circle round the planet. (in fact humans trying to sail west to valinor in the 2nd age was what caused Eru illuvitar to remove valinor and bend the world in the first place) we're told that Eru did create some new lands on the bent world to fill the gap where valinor used to be, presumably these would have been an americas analog, but that is the only mention we have of what you find if you sail west o nthe bent world. now, some of the appendices suggest that pipe weed/tobacco may have been a plant introduced to middle earth by the numenoreans, like athelas, so it is possible that the new world plants we hear mentioned came from Numeneor before it was destroyed when the world was bent, introduced through trade and colonization during the time of the King's Men.

in the book it was "one small cake is sufficent for a whole's day's march", which helps explain why the relatively small supply that Frodo and Sam can carry in their packs was expected to be able to feed them not only for the trip into mordor, but also on the trip back out.

10:00 This quote! I was so excited when I read this part for the first time! When I realised how paranoid Saruman became and how his obsession slowely drew him mad that he even thought that the smoke rings Gandalf was blowing were a silent dig at him and he thought, if I recall correctly, that Gandalf either knew about Saruman's obsession with the rings of power OR that he knew something about them and was after them himself. Such an insightful paragraph that says so much about their characters. As for what food or drink Id like to try from Middle Earth thats a tough choice because Id like to try everything. Longbottom leaf is very attractive of course, Id love to know what it tastes like but Im not big on pipes and I cant blow rings of smoke. It would have to be Lembas bread because it 1. it's elvish and I wanna know what their food is like, they have different technology and the making of it is all wrapped in mystery and 2. because as far as I know one little bite would keep me full for a whole day and that sounds wonderfully ecomonic :D is probably good for you too! Btw they drink tea but is there some equivalent to coffee in ME do you think? That would be wonderful! Mae'govannen mellon!

I would love to have some miruvor as I'm getting up in years. 66 now and a lot of mileage so I go to the gym three times a week, but some days I'd rather not and just go even though I don't feel like it, a sip of miruvor would be refreshing and I'd be able to work out longer. Also my lady friend likes to go hiking and I could use a good pick me up then too, especially when it's cold. I would simply love to try it and see how good it is and like I said above it would be very useful.

I would like to have the lembas recipe. I like to hike and it would be just right. I'm glad you took a look at the food and drink of Middle Earth. It's the little things that provide the foundation for all the swords and sorcery.

Will you ever cover some of the more ‘obscure’ LOTR adaptations (I.E.) the radio series or dramatized reading? I would love to hear your thoughts on them.

I would love to try Lembas, always have. As a kid I got great enjoyment out of tearing off a hunk of baguette and eating it as is. To have a bread that met all the bodies needs? I can't think of anything better! I must have some Elven blood way back in the line ;-)

3:00 The screencap from Goblin Slayer made me chortle to no end. High Elf Archer hands it out to the party and calls it "Elven Bread" in the anime, but its clearly lembas. I love that you used this screencap.

It would be great to try miruvor and see how great the propertys of it really are. Also the honey cakes are a thought that would be great to have with a flagon of ale and a bit of Old Toby. Yoystan thanks for the great videos and be of good cheer my friend

I would love to try the Lembas bread. It's absolutely iconic and I feel it is often overlooked in it's role in sustaining Frodo and Sam through their journey to Mordor.

Well done. Somehow it reminds me of sharing a Christmas Dinner with a older German man, Walter Baum, and his family when I was a young soldier in Schweinfurt Germany.

I would probably want to try Longbottom Leaf or Old Toby. I took up pipe smoking back in 2016 after going through some dark stuff. Smoking calmed me down and prevented me from reliving it. After some counseling, I didn't need to smoke anymore, but decided I still liked it and now I smoke vanilla tobacco out of a cherry wood pipe. The flavor is amazing!

Definitely the Beorning Honeycakes or Lembas Bread. After reading the books as a kid, I think you're always curious to know how they REALLY taste (not just our human approximations). Thanks for another great video.

As a drinker of loose leaf tea, I've always wondered what athelas infusion/tisana tastes like. I imagine it is like mint or chamomile, but I'd like to feel the effects. Honorable mention for miruvor, for similar purpose, but I'm not into alcohol.

I would love to try Lembas bread, as the claim Legolas makes seems very interesting and I would love to put it and its original purpose to the test. I don't know of any drinks I would like to try, as I'm a lightweight and really only drink when having a large meal with friends. Unless it's mead. That stuff is deliciously dangerous. If there is something similar in Tolkien's world, I want some. I don't care if I have to beat Gimli in a drinking contest to get it. I would lose badly, but I would still try.
