I think Rebecca has nailed this. A lot of people are sniffy about 'old' or 'historic' food as if all the food we eat today is always good, but good food can be found throughout history. https://twitter.com/Rebecca89625636/status/1577240929765052417

Rebecca Stewart is reading all the books. @Rebecca89625636

@TheRegencyCook People sometimes act as though no one ate good food before modern times. Tastes change, what we consider "proper pairings" changes, but good food is good food.

@whingingpomme_ @CAMRA_Official @Cider_Review We should publicise this:
"A YouGov survey found that 93% of people think that the preservation of traditional orchards is important – with 87% of respondents supporting raising the ‘minimum juice content’ of cider to help halt the decline of orchards"

Aecia projections of European pear rust (gymnosporangium sabinae) fungi can be seen on the underside of the leaf of an ornamental pear!

Aeciospores produced in aecia on the underside of the pear leaf infect junipers to continue the life cycle of rust. 1/3
