Gastro Obscura is a sister site to Atlas Obscura, an online place that I like to go explore from time to time. GO is all about weird facts about food and restaurants, pubs, etc...anything foodie related. I realize that this isn't a recipe, but I thought it would still be the best place to post this.
Here's an interesting fact that I learned on GO...did you know that sometimes, an Irish Pub was also the town undertaker? Why? Well...think about it. They had plenty of cold storage available for the body, a nice little meeting place for a wake and plenty of booze to help lessen the load of grief.
Do you know where the world's largest stove is located? GO does.
Looking for a, "strictly cookbooks," book store? GO has a list of several.
Did you know that you can visit Ben and Jerry's Flavor Graveyard? (It's in Vermont)
It's a fun site:
