Mixed feelings about Assyrian Kings whos records are responsible for much of our records of ancient times being most well known from a pop band called, what was it again, bowling for soup?
Unfortunately for you most tablets were created for business transactions like bills etc.
This is fortunate for archaeology though because it means that there were a LOT of them and it also gives us a pretty good view of what ppl. back then spent their money on.

Krunchy Kuneiform!
Ashurbanipal and Gilgamesh might be the marshmallows.
And just what is Sargon to you, chopped liver-flavored marshmallow?

I wouldn't be surprised if at least one of those tablets contained recipes for some sort of bread or cake

That's one hell of a forbidden snack.
Do we have a forbidden snacks community anywhere on lemmy?
