Global Museum<p>On April 1, 1957, the BBC’s Panorama fooled 8 million viewers with a 3-minute prank about a ‘Swiss spaghetti harvest,’ narrated by Richard Dimbleby. Showing farmers picking spaghetti from bushes, it tricked many Britons unfamiliar with pasta—then an exotic dish—thanks to the BBC’s credibility and the era’s limited culinary exposure. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/AprilFools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AprilFools</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/BBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BBC</span></a></p>
