When common sense was written what were the colonists free of?

Many colonists, however, still looked with horror at the idea of independence. Then, early in 1776, a Patriot named Thomas Paine published a fiery pamphlet entitled Common Sense. Paine scoffed at the idea that Americans owed any loyalty to King George. "Of more worth is one honest man to society," he wrote, "than all the crowned ruffians who ever lived."Paine also attacked the argument that the colonies' ties to Great Britain had benefited Americans. Just the opposite was true, he said. American trade had suffered under British control. Americans had also been hurt by being dragged into Great Britain's European wars.Paine ended with a vision of an independent America as a homeland of liberty. "Ye that love mankind!" he urged. "Ye that dare oppose not only the tyranny, but the tyrant, stand forth! . . . The sun never shined on a cause of greater worth."Within a few months, more than 120,000 copies of Common Sense were printed in the colonies. Paine's arguments helped persuade thousands of colonists that independence was not only sensible, but that it was the key to a brighter future.

It was a gamble because the Allies were legally able to oppose this and the war could have commenced at that time. Luckily for the Germans, France was going through a political crisis and therefore was uninterested.

There was not an exact 'first' chef. Dating back to as far as the start of mankind, when fire was made, would more than likely be the start of our chefs/cooks. When fire was first invented/found, the primitive race learned how to use it to cook their foods. Then the Native Americans and so on and so forth..
