Credit the cooks for strawberries and cream, not their patron
[edit]Given what it says in the actual source cited I think it would be appropriate to credit the ‘invention of strawberries and cream’ to an ‘unknown member or members of Thomas Wolsey’s kitchen staff” rather than to Thomas Wolsey himself. There is no record or even rumor of him ordering it/specifying it (unlike with the story of the sandwich and the earl of Sandwich) and instead sources including the one cited are explicit about the dish being worth crediting to the cooks or some other person closer to the kitchens at his palace. 2600:1700:25BF:9800:2513:5FF0:4B6E:7959 (talk) 00:27, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
