The 1st Supermarket Began a Revolution (involving Queen Elizabeth)

Once you know this story, you’ll never think about grocery stores the same way. Turns out, the modern grocery store was incredibly revolutionary and actually changed habits you have, right now, forever.
info_outlineThe term “mad hatter” was NEVER in the book Alice in Wonderland, so QUESTION: Why was there an “odd” hat maker in this famous book and the phrase still known today “mad as a hatter”?
Because there was a phenomenon at the time that was really startling.
Lewis Caroll (a pen name), author of Alice in Wonderland, did NOT invent the mad hatter concept.
There was a real pandemic for hat makers in multiple areas of the globe that started decades before this book was published, that most modern people have never heard of. It was a mystery for decades on what was happening that was finally solved and laws came into place to protect.
After research I was shocked by myself, I am now revealing:
- For decades, NO ONE knew why hat makers experienced mental health and nervous system breakdowns, while shoemakers and other tradesmen did not
- Traits Alice in Wonderland’s hatter you never knew about + who he’s actually based on
- What horrifying phenomenon happened to the city in America dubbed “the hat capital in the world”
- Finally, humans discovering WHAT was causing the problems for hat makers (+ the depth of the symptoms)
- What law in 1941 finally halted this hatmaker condition
- The shocking way a hat maker was directly linked to Lincoln’s assassination (NOT in how you think)
- Why I’m sharing this historical phenomenon specifically NOW during COVID 19 and the hope it can bring us
