The eggplant fact is interesting though.
I do keep a wealth of useless info in my noggin; but I really only started having interest in China in about 300 AD when it became warring states. Sun Tzu rocks. But Chinese scribings on "oracle bones" in 1500 BC? That really just never interested me. Back then most of the writings were to predict the future. And of note is that Chinese didn't even start doing that until about 1,000 years after the Egyptians. They were slow to evolve.
