I have a friend that doesn't even believe in a god, and I said whatever I could, but her side of the argument was, that if everything came from something, and their was a Creator of everything, then where did God come from.And I don't know what to say, I'm kind of stuck.Thank you for writing and for your question. have a friend that doesn't even believe in a god, and I said whatever I could, but her side of the argument was, that if everything came from something, and their was a Creator of everything, then where did God come from.

Spices and herbs at a grocery shop in Goa, India. A spice is a seed, fruit, root, bark, berry, bud or vegetable substance primarily used for flavoring, coloring or preserving food. Spices are distinguished from herbs, which are parts of leafy green plants used for flavoring or as a garnish.Many spices have antimicrobial properties.This may explain why spices are more commonly used in warmer climates, which have more infectious disease, and why the use of spices is prominent in meat, which is particularly susceptible to spoiling.mall seeds, such as fennel and mustard seeds, are often used both whole and in powder form. The flavor of a spice is derived in part from compounds (volatile oils) that oxidize or evaporate when exposed to air. Grinding a spice greatly increases its surface area and so increases the rates of oxidation and evaporation.
Spices were popular in both Europe and the Islamic Middle East for a multitude of simliar purposes. Here is a map of the Spice Trade Route (100-1500 CE). It is shown that the Spice Trade extended throughout the majority of the ancient world (Spice Trade Route).ith the introduction of spices, meals suddenly became a fashion in ancient Europe, and spicy food symbolized material comfort and social prominence. An urban legend is that spices were popular in Europe solely because of their ability to cure meat, or conceal the taste of spoiled meat (3).
