Food words (meaning and origin)

I was watching lecture on Coursera "An Introduction to the U.S. Food System" and stumble upon 3 words that I found interesting:
 - trivia (tri - three, via - road). Trivia originated in ancient Rome
 - companion (com - with, panion - bread).
 - board (Viking word means table)
