Nachos

While not every experiment in the kitchen ends well, one experiment brought us precious nachos. Ignacio Nacho Araya, a manager at the Victory Club Restaurant in Mexico, was visited by 10 hungry military wives who had crossed the border. When his efforts to find the chef failed, Nacho improvised something on his own. He covered tostadas with grated cheese and broiled it. To his surprise, the women loved his creation, the “Nacho’s Special.” Eventually, after gaining much popularity over the years, Nacho opened his own place, Nacho’s Restaurant.

8Coffee Was Discovered by Goats
A popular legend has it that the first to enjoy the magical effects of coffee was a goat. One day, hundreds of years ago, Kaldi, an Ethiopian goatherd, noticed a change in the behavior of his goats. Kaldi observed that the goats were being unusually cheerful and energetic, so he followed them around. Turns out, the goats had been devouring the beans and leaves of a particular tree. Curious, Kaldi consumed some of them, too, and also gave some to a monk that was having trouble staying awake throughout prayers. The monks loved the new drink because of its galvanizing effect and good taste.


Corn flakes
1894, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg and his brother Will Keith Kellogg were searching for healthy wholesome foods that fit their strict vegetarian diet as Seventh Day Adventists. The forgotten, musty, boiled wheat left out for too long wasn’t a part of their plan, though. But they went for it anyway, and tried to make sheets of dough out of the old, dry wheat. When the wheat came out as flakes, the brothers toasted them.

The toasted flakes became popular among Dr. Kellogg’s patients in the Battle Creek Sanitarium in Michigan, so they experimented with other materials, including corn. In 2015, the company saw a revenue of $13.53 billion.
