#OnThisDay in #History, #KingHenryI of #England dies.
Not in #battle. Not from some #Medieval plague. No. My guy died from too much junk food.
See, back then #Lamprey was a rich, indulgent delicacy for #Royalty and Hanky-Panky couldn't get enough.
His #doctor even told him to knock it off with all the lamprey eating. He didn't.💀
Is there a better story to kick off the #Holiday season? Maybe. But none of them have #lampreys.
