Beefeaters also commonly produced and consumed broths made of beef, which were described as rich and hearty.

The earliest connection to the Royal Household came as a reference to the Yeomen of the Guard by Cosimo III de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany, who frequented the Court in 1669. The term was common as early as the 17th century as a slang term for the English in general. The name Beefeater is of uncertain origin, with various proposed derivations.

Slade House by David Mitchell, was a unique book unlike any other I have ever read, to say the very least. One not-so-easy task was choosing who to include. "If you think about finances and family and infertility and all of these different things that women faced, they just really translated so we knew that there were still a lot of strong female stories in the Bible that hadn't been told or needed to be elaborated on so we said, 'Alright, let's plunge into these mother-daughter relationships.'"

Then she hits him with her car-supposedly by accident. So when a purple-haired tornado of a woman turns up out of the blue to interview for his open chef position, he tells her the brutal truth: not a chance in hell. The bed and breakfast owner's on a mission to dominate the hospitality industry-and he expects nothing less than perfection. It's time for Eve to grow up and prove herself-even though she's not entirely sure how. But when her personal brand of chaos ruins an expensive wedding (someone had to liberate those poor doves), her parents draw the line. No matter how hard she strives to do right, her life always goes horribly wrong-so she's given up trying.

The McMartin preschool scandal of the 1980s was a sort of analog version of the more recent Pizzagate, part of a lurid and misbegotten moral panic about subterranean child abuse. Hundreds, maybe thousands, of otherwise normal, relatively well-adjusted Americans truly believed that a massive ring of occultist pedophiles was operating right under everyone’s noses. “Everything fell into place,” one of them said. Nor was there any clear evidence that it was actually happening. Not that anyone else witnessed the abuse. And it all happened in the middle of a safe neighborhood where crimes were not supposed to happen, let alone such unspeakable and horrific ones. In total, some several hundred children were subjected to this treatment. Sometimes the kids were filmed for pornographic purposes. Their captors drank blood in front of them and staged satanic ritual sacrifices. The children were being sodomized in secret underground tunnels.
