An article from Eater, on the Food Timeline that Lynne Olver developed. It is now looking for someone to maintain it. It occurred to me that this may be an appropriate project for eG, actually. If nothing else, it's a website that I think folks here will appreciate.

I've used it many times as a reference in food-related writing.

“Who loves a garden, loves a greenhouse too.” - William Cowper, The Task, Book Three

Holy carp.  I knew Lynne and Sara in a professional way but never connected her to this website.

Nothing is better than frying in lard.

Nothing.  Do not quote me on this.

Pleased to bump this thread with a good-news followup: The same Eater writer reports that the Timeline has been taken over by Virginia Tech's Special Collections Archive.
