Question:
What are the Names of Neil Armstrong’s parents?
-Maria Gilbert
Answer–
I’m glad someone finally asked that. The cool part is that most people are probably thinking, “oh, Neil Armstrong, the one giant step guy,” but in reality, you are asking about Neil Armstrong, the famous electric fork inventor/maker. Neil was actually an icon of modern culinary evolution. The reason that the question is relevant, of course is because as a young boy in the 1800’s, Neil drew his inspiration from his parents, who were European immigrants who bought and ran a restaurant in Brooklyn. Both of his parents were excellent chefs and the restaurant was famous for it’s Mandioca Fries. It was this era that Young Neil, son of Electra and Forker Armstrong realized that unlike his parents, he had no skills in the kitchen. So he spent years at the drawing board and came up this this beauty.
