Would you eat tulip bulbs to survive? 🌷🥣
In this episode, we dive into one of the most desperate food stories of World War II — the Dutch Hunger Winter of 1944–1945.

As famine spread across Nazi-occupied Netherlands, people turned to whatever they could find: sugar beets, potato peels, and yes… even tulip bulbs.

In today’s video, we explore how families prepared these unusual meals just to stay alive. We’ll talk about:

🍽️ How tulip bulbs were cooked
🥄 Why they became a symbol of survival
📜 What other creative “recipes” people invented during the war

This is more than just food — it’s a story of resilience, resourcefulness, and the will to survive.

👉 Join us as we recreate a piece of culinary history from the harshest winter of WW2.
