less because you're confident that potato souffle was invented by accident and more that you're trapped, crystalline, in the blank confidence of that statement and you have to figure out if it's the case and, if not, why anybody would write that

i'm immediately consumed by the curiosity of knowing HOW you invent potato souffle by accident as well, now
the story - which i essentially do not believe - goes that it was an accidental response to a chef not knowing exactly when his high-profile guest would arrive
Jack it's okay! It's never true! People just love stories about how foods were invented by accident, "oh brownies were invented when someone left the baking soda out", "simnel cake is from SIMon and NELl having a fight with all their kitchen ingredients", "Baron Lamington threw a cake over his shoulder and it landed in a dish of gravy then bounced to a dish of coconut and someone said: oh, what if we replaced the gravy with chocolate though".
DID YOU KNOW: an egg was first fried when a drunken eggmonger fell and dropped his eggs on some cooling lava
DID YOU KNOW: the word "chip" is a bowdlerisation of "shit", which is what a humble potato vendor said when he dropped his potatoes through a laser grid and into a vat of boiling oil
we might all be clinging together in the post-twitter lifeboats but at least i'm in the same one you are
very glad you're here too, we can sit around a fire and write our little sentences and I guess maybe sometimes somebody will pass through from mastodon or instagram and bring the news from afar
