Oh wow

So for various reasons I've been trying to find Victorian recipes and cookbooks (mostly for cake, because, y'know, cake) and the first cookbook I start looking through... is racist as fuck.

I mean, ok, this is from 1866, you kind of expect people to spout a bunch of imperialist bullshit. It's just. You don't really expect to see it on page 1 of a random cookbook you pick up?
