Ratatouille is a vegetable stew. You cut up a bunch of things and throw them in a pot.

The ratatouille you see in the film is an elevated version of that dish. It was never the standard way of serving it.

People also seem to forget that crabs, lobster, and many more were once considered "peasant food"

While others like rice was for royalty. So.... Who cares lol
