Table of the Gods is a similar channel specifically about recipes of ancient Mesopotamia. Very neat stuff, some of which I believe comes from this very tablet.

Yeah, same! (mostly) I've only visited a few places in Italy during my travels over the years, (Rome, Firenze, Bologna, Bari) and each were just as revelatory as the others. Also, my deep and abiding love for cephalopodes put me off a number of menu items (๐ข), so I feel ya there.
It's eye-opening how insanely better food can be without corn syrup, etc. ๐ซช
