Fe Fi Fo Fum


I learn so much by teaching the kids.  Today I learned the Phoenicians used to worship the goddess of the moon, Astarte and would sacrifice live children to her idol, Fe-Fi-Fo-Fum.  I'm guessing that's why the giant in "Jack in the Beanstalk" says Fe-Fi-Fo-Fum before he tries to eat Jack.  Weird huh?
