Founding of the Society of Pioneers in Culinary Exploration
Year: 1988
Location: Miami
The world was becoming increasingly gray, cold, and tasteless. Fast food chains were taking over, spices were disappearing, and everything tasted the same. Behind this development stood a powerful organization that decided what people should eat. But not everyone submitted, and so a secret group emerged underground: The Society of Pioneers in Culinary Exploration, or Club SPICE for short.
They secretly experimented with the most diverse spices and unusual ingredients, mixed hot sauces, and sent handwritten recipes via shortwave radio. They spread their secret video messages on LaserDisc, but VHS cassettes prevailed.
