[bobsnds76]

Pretty cool! Would be a sweet experience to prepare and eat the food.

[shawnielee1976]

AMAZING! I would LOVE to go there one day!!!

Historian Lucy Worsley quotes this video almost word for word on the fourth and last episode of her "If Walls Could Talk" shown on Brit TV - hope she paid you!

i LOVED walking through here....i live 10 minutes away from the place

[Jakegothicsnake]

Oh God, they actually put high priced metal on sweets??!!!! That CANNOT be good for you!!

[likethepear]

Wow, it would be fascinating to go there and see all of this.

[fleurgi]

there diet was nasty

[anasnaknota]

they should add more actors to make the reenactment looked real

[mckfrr]

@AWickedMind. lol. And you would be dead sooner than later, which is why Henry was fat later on in life and had died.

[SithLordRagnos]

Ren Faires can suck it.

THIS is how you do historical reenactment!

[childchewingcheese]

Hampton Court is brilliant. If you're particularly interested in Tudor feasts then take a look at Heston's Tudor Feast - it's on Youtube's Channel 4 actually. In that Heston recreates a number of Tudor dishes in his own way for a table of celebrity guests. It's really good!

[CharlotteHistorian]

Wow I Would Love to go there :D

[AWickedMind]

I'd love to visit there and eat food exactly as it was prepared for the 16th century nobles. All meat, bread, sweets, and alcohol- sounds like my kind of diet lol. Screw salads and bottled water!

[mmedefarge]

Yes, I would love to be there on one of those 50 days & get to taste some Renaissance food. It must of tasted very different. I have a medieval recipe book which may have been very similar; they ate just about anything & everything.

[fleurgi]

@AWickedMind what about cheescake? can u say no to a cheescake diet...i think not lol

[AWickedMind]

@fleurgi I'd have that too, it'd fall under my "sweets" catagory! I'm ready to go. I'll call it the "H8 Anti-Atkins Plan" and publish books about it and everything. It'll be the new diet trend, you just watch ;) This is my sales pitch: "eat all the fatty meats you want...plus all the carbs and alcohol you want! Try the new H8 plan!" lol

[Duchessclotho]

@AWickedMind Unfortunately we would probably get food poisoning. lol.

[MateusVIII]

@AWickedMind i agree on most things, but i wouldn't really like sugar in my wine

[AWickedMind]

@MateusVIII You could always have good old fashioned ale :)

[MateusVIII]

@AWickedMind that is true

[cannonfodder9]

this is a very good quality.

A special well done to the narrator- he makes it interesting for all ages.

[nokomarie1963]

That would be a great way to spend an afternoon.

[asiako25]

I strongly recommend the book by Alison Weir " Henry VIII , the king and his court" she describes every aspect of Henry's everyday life! it's great!

[BxHxKx0x]

OMG GO INTERHIGH

ILY OMAR

[Karenjade]

Now you've gone and made me hungry! LOL! ;)
