Bizarre Fun Fact: Forks Were Banned for 400 Years! 😈
πŸ’‘ Today's Bonus: Knowledge Gets Weird!

When Byzantine Princess Maria Argyropoulina brought forks to Venice in 1004 CE, the Catholic Church declared them immoral tools of Satan. Their reasoning? The word "fork" comes from "furca" (pitchfork), already associated with the devil's weapon. When the princess died of plague shortly after, Saint Peter Damian proclaimed it was God's punishment for using demonic dining utensils. This effectively banned forks across Christian Europe for 400 years! Europeans continued eating with their hands, knives, and spoons while forks were literally considered devil's tableware. Anyone caught using one risked being branded as a heretic. The ban finally lifted in the 15th century, but many priests still preached that God gave us fingers for a reason!
