There are many famous foodies in history. For example, Su Dongpo of China was banished to various places in China, and he was still able to find local food calmly. Another example is Zhang Gongbao, who invented kung pao chicken and made Dengying beef famous.
In fact, whether in China or abroad, there are always some foodies at all times and in all countries that refresh our cognition. We can understand that foodies love to eat, but it is also a great thing to eat enough to support ourselves.
There was a king in England, Henry I of Normandy Dynasty. The king fell in love with the ingredients in Normandy at first sight. As a foodie, he was naturally happy to eat delicious food, especially one of the ingredients called lamprey, which was particularly delicious to cook. So the king ate lamprey in one night and couldn't stop eating until his stomach was round. Until he ate all the ingredients, the king went back to his room to rest, and soon found that he had died. King Henry, who was overeating, was drowned by fish because he didn't know how to control himself.
lamprey is distributed in both fresh water and seawater, and most species are migratory. In the breeding season, lamprey migrates upstream from the ocean to spawn in fresh water, and then returns to the sea or the estuary of the river in adulthood. A few land-enclosed species inhabit streams and lakes for life, and the size of land-enclosed individuals is obviously smaller than that of migratory species. The growth process of lamprey can be divided into three stages: larval stage, metamorphosis stage and adult stage. It is found from unearthed fossils that its development process has not changed for hundreds of millions of years. In the larval stage, the whole body is translucent, hiding in the sediment and gravel at the bottom of the water, with undeveloped eyes and teeth, and feeding on organic debris and algae in the water.
