Food Trivia

Well I went to www.funtrivia.com clicked onto hobbies and then onto food and beverage and then onto desserts.. Thanks to the cake trivia questions I got 9 out of 10! There was one cake I have never heard nor seen... Its called a kings cake, on wikipedia it states
"A king cake (sometimes rendered as kingcake, kings' cake, king's cake, or three kings cake) is a type of cake associated with the festival of Epiphany in the Christmas season in a number of countries, and in other places with the pre-Lenten celebrations of Mardi Gras / Carnival. It is popular in the Christmas season (Christmas Eve to Epiphany) in France, Belgium and Switzerland (galette or gâteau des Rois), Portugal (bolo rei), Spain and Spanish America (roscón or rosca de reyes and tortell in Catalonia), Greece and Cyprus (vasilopita) and Bulgaria (banitsa). In the United States, which celebrates Carnival mainly in the Southeastern region (Louisiana and New Orleans in particular), it is associated with Mardi Gras traditions.
The cake has a small trinket (often a small plastic baby, sometimes said to represent Baby Jesus) inside, and the person who gets the piece of cake with the trinket has various privileges and obligations (such as buying the cake for the next celebration)."

My culture "Greek" has something like this, however its not as colorful. We place a special blessed coin into the cake for new years, anyone who gets that coin in their slice of cake has good luck all year long.
The Kings Cake is extremely colorful, look it up on google, Traditional colors are purple, yellow, green and white... but I have seen some cakes with other very vibrant colors. I think I'm going to go back to www.funtrivia.com again and test my knowledge on some other food and beverage quiz's! Can't wait to see the result, and what new item of food will I learn... So Exciting!!!
Thanks for reading! Check out the site, test your knowledge, and see where you stand on food trivia.
