I loved this history. I’ve been to The Parker House and thankfully missed the mouse.

I'm so glad you liked it! Haha, I believe the mouse was a special guest for that day :)

I really enjoyed reading this. "It is layered with history, patriotism and shame in equal parts" is such an eloquent way to summarize the history of the Boston Cream pie. Looking forward to your next writing piece on food history.

Thank you so much! It means the world to me that you liked it and are looking forward to my next one :)

I am working on a series of essays about the history of New England classics. Have you seen my previous ones?

I haven't read the previous ones. I saw the "Boston Cream Pie" on the home page and I thought the intro was very interesting:) What should I read next?
