The great secret of the Conclave what will those who want to be Pope eat?

During this time, all activities such as voting, eating, and sleeping will take place under strict surveillance broadcasts ofgraphy.

The concerts are known for their deep secrets. Cardinals are isolated in a common space where access to and exiting messages is prohibited, except through smoke showing the success or failure of voting, writes Bubc.

The white smoke signals the Pope's choice, while black smoke indicates another vote is needed to reach the required majority. While details of what happens during the conflict remain secret, one thing is certain: Cardinals must eat during the process of electing the Pope, which can last days or weeks.

But how is the secret of the process provided in view of the supplies that go in and out? How can the integrity of the vote be maintained by external influences?

Food has always been a potential risk, as a cardinal can receive illegal messages through food, or send out voting information with the help of a napkin.

However, common eating can also be an opportunity for the development of secret negotiations.

For the conclusion that will begin on May 7th, nuns in Domus Sanctae Marthae, residences where cardinals stay during isolation, will prepare simple foods, such as soup, spaghetti, lamb and boiled vegetables.

While concerns about hidden messages through food have waned, the current concern is the use of electronic devices for illegal communication, an issue often presented in films.

For this reason, the Vatican is making strict controls for hidden electronic devices, while cardinals are making last preparations to enjoy some favorite dishes, wondering if this might be the last meal before the Pope is crowned. /Periscope/
