England's Food and Drink in the 1600's and 1700's

           In 1600’s and the 1700’s England people ate some similar stuff, but it wasn’t a big variety like we have today. They ate wheat and meat. They drank beer, wine, tea, and coffee. For fruits they ate pineapples and bananas. Those are just some of the thing Those England people ate.

        The poor people ate cheese, bread, and onions. Ordinary people ate porridge. That is a kind of stew. They put meat and fish in the stew. They ate lots of fish and meat. The rich would get ice cream, cheese, bread, onions, porridge, meat, and fish.

         For breakfast people ate sausage, eggs, and bread. They drank tea and coffee for breakfast. For lunch they would eat sandwiches like roast beef and they would eat cakes like fruitcakes, muffins, and pies. They drank ginger beer for lunch. Then for dinner they ate stew, sandwiches, hamburger, cheese, fish, and bread. The rich would drink wine and the ordinary people and the poor drank beer.

          Now we have more crops to eat more veggies and fruits. For breakfast we have cereal, pancakes and waffles a lot of other things too. For lunch we have lettuces, tomatoes, ketchup, and mustard and a lot of other things. For dinner we have pizza, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, noodles and a lot of other things.

         So now you see how England and the rest of the world has change on how we eat today. All the stuff they ate back we still eat today, but now we have more verities of food.
