Catherine de Médicis


You can thank Catherine de Médicis for making eating spinach widespread. Her connections to the Medici family and Florence gave us the culinary term, Florentine. I like spinach (provided it is fresh). A lot of kids were forced to eat canned spinach back in the day, so I get why they would hate it.
