Shard of Reading Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Any theories on where chouta was invented? This is incredibly important discussion. I need to know if the scadrains invented it and if it moved to Roshar or vice versa. Also, I would love it if chouta became something of a running gag, where someone comments how it looks disgusting and everyone else extols its virtues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just going to guess that it originated on Yolen, and every Shard has just subtly influenced a human to invent it on their world. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hessi's Ward Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 I think it's more likely to be a Rosharan export. Imagine if Iyatil reports back about chouta and the Ghostbloods decided it's very neat and they should start a chouta chain for additional funding, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+robardin Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Not sure if "chouta" being from "Roshar" counts as moving this from "Mistborn only" to the "Cosmere spoilers" sub-sub-section of TLM dsicussion, LOL But since Era 2 takes place after SA5, that's plenty of time for Rosharans to start bringing chouta first to Shadesmar, and then popularizing it everywhere The fun thing is to question how "authentic" the chouta is off of Scadrial. Since Soulcast meat would not be available, and "real" meat tastes different even on Roshar, and of course Scadrial would have more animal protein options than Roshar (which is basically crustacean, "chicken", or pork - no cattle). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it wouldn’t spoil any of Stormlight so I decided it would be fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormingTexan Posted November 17, 2022 Report Share Posted November 17, 2022 Since Wax had no idea what it was and with these books happening after SA 1-5 I am going to guess it was brought to Scadrial from Roshar. I loved this scene! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
