Okay, first off, I'm pretty sure I did not read anything interesting about cadavers. At all. Normally I remember the cool stuff. I think this chapter may have been falsely adverstised. There was lots on salt though (no surprise there). I guess pungent sauces were included, but it was mostly about salt.
There was a lot on Marco Polo in this chapter. I find it vair interesting that Marco Polo's story may all have been a heaping pile of lies. That is disappointing and I will never play that pool game the same way again. "Marco." "Falsehood." And boy, you sure cannot escape the Chinese, can you? Every chapter references them a whole bunch. Can't we reference the naked, fighting, red bearded Celts? They were awesome. As for Marco Polo, though, he is a lie. You know why? Because he didn't notice the bound feet of the Chinese princesses. Yup. True story.
Venice was a sort of crazy city. It was very salt obsessed. Although, I can't blame them. Everyone in this book is. Then again, if they weren't they probably wouldn't be useful for a book about salt. They were like the salt pimps. Literal pimps for salt. How odd.
That is all I really have to say about this chapter. And I am still disappointed about the lack of cadavers. Or my lack of noticing them, whichever it was. Happy salting.

....salt pimps?
Yeah the amount of cadavers certainly decreased at a sharp rate for this chapter. I don't even think there was a single dead body at all!
How uplifting?
my word verification is Spanish for "to drink"
how inappropriate!
You are definitely correct. There were no cadavers. Unless they make a grand entrance and exit in the 6th chapter. But I highly doubt it. You can never count on a cadaver.
Haha yeah what happened to all the cadavers? But I like the all salt pimps, that was great. Also I agree that Venice was a crazy city and was so obsessed with salt, especially after they figured out they could make more money by just buying and selling it.
If the chapter doesn't talk about it, then why bring it up? You are just rambling again. You mention pungent sauces but don't really get into it much. (lack of detail)
You also mention Marco Polo but you state that he lied, but tell little about what he actually may have lied about? The feet? That's it? Talking about the pool game is not relevant to this chapter, nor is continuing to complain about the Chinese.
Tell me why Venice was salt obsessed? It has to do with making money!
Here is an example of you babling:
"It was very salt obsessed. Although, I can't blame them. Everyone in this book is. Then again, if they weren't they probably wouldn't be useful for a book about salt. They were like the salt pimps. Literal pimps for salt. How odd."
This is off task. You did not complete this blog assignment as asked.
