What game would be complete without a full botanical rundown of all the local produce. I neither knew nor cared where peppercorns originated until this thread--and that in and of itself is weird because I imagine Alton Brown would have told me in the 20 years I've watched him.Who is sitting at the table just waiting to catch the DM out using their past food history knowledge?AaaaaaHAAA! Those halflings can't have corn because they never biohacked it out of Central American grasses, nor did they figure out the lime-washing process that makes it possible for humans to extract nutrients from it! Your entire campaign world is garbage because of that? And what is with these orange carrots, you HACK? Don't you know there's no house of Orange? In fact, this whole food stall is wrong because all of these brassicas were developed by the Dutch--who have NO place on Faerun.Check and mate. Campaign over. I win.</blockquote>
