       @gutenberg_orgBoth. I was particularly intrigued by the science and use of Steinbeck's great book (it really is) as a non-traditional data source. It brought to mind a study from years back that used art to ascertain changes in diet over the centuries:"The largest Last Supper: depictions of food portions and plate size increased over the millennium"Anyway, Project Gutenberg is awesome! Keep up the great work!! https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20308996/

       @RunRichRun thanks! The article you shared here looks quite interesting, will take a look later on. And the image was chosen within the actual context. Public domain images can be very creative from time to time.
