History of the Kabob

Since the beginning of time man has been drawn to food on a stick.   The innate desire to consume tasty treats on a pointy skewer has been with us since the beginning of recorded history.  The fossil record shows Kabob skewers as early as the Cenozoic Era, although there is debate amongst the kabob community over kabobologist findings dating back as early as the Mesazoic Era.  These earlier Mesozoic findings are still subject to debate to this day.  Carbon dating methods have proven inconclusive and many kabobers are still divided over this topic.
