PRODIGAL GENIUS
The Life of Nikola Tesla by John J. O'Neill (1944)
"With the passing decades, Tesla shifted away from a meat diet. He substituted fish, always boiled, and finally eliminated the meat entirely. He later almost entirely eliminated the fish and lived on a vegetarian diet. Milk was his main standby, and toward the end of his life it was the principal item of diet, served warm. As a youth he drank a great deal of coffee, and, while he gradually became aware that he suffered unfavorable influences from it, he found it a difficult habit to break. When he finally made the decision to drink no more of it, he adhered to his good intentions but was forced to recognize the fact that the desire for it remained. He combated this by ordering with each meal a pot of his favorite coffee, and having a cup of it poured so that he would get the aroma. It required ten years for the aroma of the coffee to transform itself into a nuisance so that he felt secure in no longer having it served. Tea and cocoa he also considered injurious. He was a heavy smoker in his youth, mostly of cigars. A sister who seemed fatally ill, when he was in his early twenties, said she would try to get better if he would give up smoking. He did so immediately. His sister recovered, and he never smoked again."

Did Tesla invent electronic induction cooking?
Nope. He gets the credit but Maxwell and Faraday did the work. :) Induction heating using Hysterisis will be Steinmetz work. :) Tesla didn't discover that either.
Tesla was brilliant and he discovered a lot of things. But people attribute a lot to his observations of things which were already known - because he was in the papers a lot - as if he discovered them when he didn't. (He also seldom corrected anyone.)
