Death by Cherries

Fun fact: Zachery Taylor, the 12th president known as a war hero to Americans, supposedly died from eating a bowl full of cherries... And washing it all down with a nice, big, glass of unpasteurized milk thick with cream. Back in the 1800s the technology to make sure milk was pasteurized and safe to drink was yet to be invented. Taylor died from stomach related sickness caused by this bad culinary combination. Nowadays, we can probably eat as many cherries as we want and drink a gallon of milk after and survive- although I do not recommend testing this theory.
