Happy April Fools’ Day, everyone!!
Remember Spaghetti Trees?!!
On April 1st, 1957, the BBC played a prank on its viewers by broadcasting the existence of a SPAGHETTI TREE!!
It showed a family in Switzerland purportedly harvesting spaghetti from a tree. The story goes: “At the time spaghetti was relatively little-known in the UK, so that many Britons were unaware that spaghetti is made from wheat flour and water; a number of viewers afterwards contacted the BBC for advice on growing their own spaghetti trees.” It was just a HOAX, of course!
