I searched about the spaghetti-tree
hoax.
It was reported
for broadcast on April Fools' Day 1957 by BBC. They said
"a family in southern Switzerland harvesting spaghetti from the family
"spaghetti tree". " At the time the UK people didn't know
about spaghetti because it wasn't famous food. Therefore the audience thought
it was good food for they make. The news was announced by Richard Dimbleby who
was respected by a lot of people so much. It's one of the
reason many people believed the news.
After I searched about
that I thought the respect sometimes cause misunderstanding.
However it was fun story for me so much.
I didn't expected that spaghetti was not famous in UK in 1957.
ReplyDeleteIt is a little pursuasive to know the state of affairs.
I thought British people would know more about spaghetti... I mean, Italy is near, doesn't it? Hahahaha
ReplyDeleteI felt it funny hoax. It could not be real, but if there is spaghetti tree, it enables us to eat fresh spaghetti at any time!
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine what spaghetti is the most fresh? It's very "fresh" idea to me. hahaha
