Do you know the origin of the term "piping hot?"
It might not be what you think.

Everyone has heard piping hot. An apple pie hot out of the oven. Did the term come from tobacco pipes? They get very warm. Did it come from hot water pipes or pipes carrying steam? They indeed get piping hot. No, the term comes from the whisting and hissing sounds piping hot foods make. How they sound like a pipe organ.
And now you know the rest of the story.
Believe it or not.
