I'm the peasant who puts something in that actively clashes with the general flavor palette under the justification that I am 'adding a little bite to it'

    id probably do beekeeping because the actual tech behind modern beekeeping isnt particularly complex but it took us forever to figure out the optimal hive storage design. so just some basic woodworking and biology skills would allow you to produce a fuckton more honey than everyone else

    so what im saying is a fuckton of honey

            I, for one, welcome any future historians to openly mock the ridiculous ideas that I currently hold. If I can make someone 1000 years in the future laugh, I'll have done my job :big-cool:

        Bees are the smallest of birds. They are born from the bodies of oxen, or from the decaying flesh of slaughtered calves; worms form in the flesh and then turn into bees. Bees live in community, choose the most noble among them as king, have wars, and make honey. Their laws are based on custom, but the king does not enforce the law; rather the lawbreakers punish themselves by stinging themselves to death. Bees are afraid of smoke and are excited by noise. Each has its own duty: guarding the food supply, watching for rain, collecting dew to make honey, and making wax from flowers. Drones (fucus) are larger bees that eat what is provided by others. Cortri are large bees that some say are the kings.

        So true, bestie

      Two things would concern me about medieval beekeeping. One, those wicker masks they wear seem like they would suck all around compared to modern mesh. Two, I read on the web somewhere that bees back then were generally more aggressive than today's eugenics bees, which have been selected by generations of beekeepers to be as docile as possible.

      But still, you would probably become some sort of merchant queen flooding the world with honey.
