''famous for his messy eating habits and his love of chickens'', wow I have more in common with Napoleon than I thought.
-
I love how people felt so shocked by Napoleon's eating habits when it sounds like he just had the palate of the typical soldier and was unashamed of it.
-
"Don't eat so quickly" "Please, I am dining a la Bonaparte"
-
Finishing a meal in about 10 minutes and walking away from the table to escape the social situation and get back to something I'd rather be doing sounds about right to me. Though it's never given me a serious tummy ache.
-
Those anecdotes about napoleon having stomach problems might have actually been early symptoms of the stomach cancer he later died of
-
See, Iâm not a total barbarian at the table, I just eat like Napoleon
-
For true authentic Napoleon experience, you're supposed to finish your chicken marengo in under 12 minutes!
-
Might not have been minor pain. Napoleon died of stomach cancer.
-
>Napoleon had very simple and plain dishes >Napoleon cared that his dinner be prepared exactly how he liked it >Napoleon ate quickly, making people question if he âchewed every little, or even not at allâ Napoleon just like me fr fr

11:46 I can actually sympathize with Napoleon here. I've had jobs with a 30-minute lunch break, but there's nowhere to eat onsite. So by the time I've clocked out, grabbed my lunch, and walked over to a park, nine minutes have passed, and it'll take me another nine minutes to do the same thing in reverse to get back to work. So functionally, sometimes all you have for hours is just 12 minutes to eat.

Napoleon sounds like someone who had to fight too many siblings for not enough food. I don't know enough about him to know if that's a possibility, but I do remember hearing that historians thought he had gall stones. Sounds a lot more like he just gave himself heartburn by eating too fast.
-
Can absolutely relate to Napoleon and his fear of finding those hairlike threads in green beans! Totally disgusting!
-
Someone needs to start a Napoleonic themed restaurant chain. "Napoleon's Chicken: It's finger lickin' fantastique!" ... They could even save money by not providing eating utensils.

On March 3rd 2020, I was called in to work at the pharmacy to be informed of the world situation. So many hospice prescriptions. To distract myself on lunch, I watched a newly posted video on the history of Medieval Cheesecake. Now we're many hardtack jokes and 2 million subs in. Thank you, Mr. Miller!
-
Napoleon's table manner sounds a bit like my dad's, lol. And he actually used to cook chicken Marengo quite often when I was a kid, though his version had a thin tomato sauce with lots of white wine instead of the stock rue, and the pieces of chicken were flowered before frying to thicken the sauce up. Delicious non the less.
-
I love that line "so too, shall I!" It just rings so true with what I love most about you: you are a recreator and that is an honor to these people and their recipes đ
-
I donât know why but hearing about how his wife would help prepare his coffee or would comfort him when he had a stomachache felt really sweet! You donât seem to hear a lot about the more domestic lives of historical figures so itâs nice to see it
-
It may be a case of serendipity, but I find it delightfully fitting that just as Max reaches 2 million YT subscribers, we find him donning the Emperor Napoleon's famous hat for his latest offering. Toutes nos félicitations, Max (and José)!

Honestly, given the description of his sensitivity to various things when eating, his abrupt demeanor, his known sharp dislike for touch, strong memory for certain details, etc, the list goes on, Napoleon actually sounds very much like he is on the spectrum. This may be, however, a modern misinterpretation, or even just projection, but is food for thought
