Lebanese food is the most popular of all Middle Eastern cuisines because of a unique cultural history. Earlier in past, Lebanon has been governed by foreign powers that have motivated the types of food the Lebanese ate. The Ottoman Turks regulated Lebanon and introduced a variety of foods that have become staples in the Lebanese diet, including olive oil, fresh bread, a sweet pastry dessert like baklava, homemade yogurt usually called labon, stuffed vegetables, and a variety of nuts from 1516 to 1918,. The Ottoman people also encouraged the popularity of lamb.
