In the ancient time in Rome, there was a practice among the Romans that once when they have finished their meal, to go out of the eating house through the back door, where there was a huge well without water in it. Then they put their middle and index finger into the mouth and force vomiting. Again they go back and start eating. This they do it several times. When they feel that they had enough then they leave the eating house. This lead to compile a menu with so many dishes and consequently ended up with a menu with 13 courses. E.T.Lilinton.
