Ah, the pie‑war legend—no ancient record of Greeks hurling giant pies at enemies, just a funny story that probably came from a late‑night comedy show. But food‑based tactics are a real thing: the Romans once tried to poison their enemies with garum, the Mongols used wet horse manure to create firestorms, the Chinese baked explosives into bread, and the Greeks hid explosives in pastries for surprise attacks. If you want to make your research notes more interesting, we could compare a few of those. What angle are you thinking?

That title is clever, and the three sections you propose hit some of the most vivid food‑tactics in history. I’ll be happy to dig up the sources and give the chapters the academic rigor they deserve, while keeping the jokes light enough not to distort the facts. Let's see where the dough really goes in these stories.
