10.Worcestershire Sauce
And the last on our list of popular foods (even though it’s a sauce) made by accident is the Worcestershire Sauce.
When: 1930
Who: John Wheeley Lea & William Henry Perrins
How: A very craving Lord Marcus Sandy returned to England, wanting to eat his favourite Indian sauce. He sent chemists John Lea and William Perrins to recreate the taste, but it seems like the chemists didn’t do so good, because the sauce was inedible.
Lea and Perrins stored away the sauce for a couple of years, and when they tasted it again it was incredibly delicious. The ageing period improved the flavour and the sauce became the famous Worcestershire Sauce we know today.
