🥧To eat humble pie

🔺Back in the 14th century, after hunting parties returned home, the lords and other important men were offered the finest cuts of meat, while men of lower social stature were offered the entrails of the animals.

🔺These entrails were known as “numbles,” a term that was shortened to “umbles” by the 15th century. Often, the “umbles” (pronounced as “humble”) were baked into pies and served to the low-class men who considered it a humiliation. That’s how the idiom “to eat humble pie” came about.

🔺Today, it means to accept that you are wrong and to apologize.

🌟 DID YOU KNOW?

🎩 The simile "as mad as a hatter" is believed to have originated in the 19th century and is often associated with the effects of mercury (ртуть) poisoning, which was common in the hat-making industry. Hatters used mercury nitrate in the process of felting wool, which often led to brain damage and symptoms that resembled madness. The phrase gained popularity partly due to Lewis Carroll's character, the Mad Hatter, in "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," published in 1865.
