This week, during Hook Week in Crew White, we have stepped back in time to learn about the ancient Egyptian ritual of mummification. Of course, we were unable to get our hands on recently deceased pharaohs so we had to make do with all the tomatoes available at the local supermarket.
We learnt about the embalming process and preparing the ‘body’ for the afterlife. We cut off the top of the tomato, scooped out its insides and covered it with salt. We will observe the tomatoes over the next few weeks and see what happens.
