Video - Eccentric Habits of Ancient Romans

Did you know that in ancient Rome, the citizens used to brush their teeth with urine? Yes, you heard that right - urine was thought to have cleaning properties that could make their teeth sparkle! Crazy, right? But that's not all - Roman emperors also used to appoint a "Vomitorium" at extravagant feasts where guests could purge before eating more. Talk about a wild way to indulge in food! Imagine attending a feast and being encouraged to throw up before digging into the next course. It's safe to say that dining etiquette has certainly come a long way since then!
