AnswerNo. No one ate strawberries in the middle ages. They didn't arrive in Europe until 1588 and are a native plant of North America. AnswerSerfs were allowed to have their own land and grow their own food in most places, and they could choose what to grow. That being the case, there was no reason why they would not have eaten strawberries.

There were foods that common people were not allowed to eat, but such laws mostly reserved better cuts of meat to the nobility or were intended to prevent poaching game.

Three species of strawberry, Fragaria moschata, Fragaria vesca, and Fragaria viridis are all native to Europe and either grown for food or eaten when found.

Why was church so hard during the middle age?

I am not sure the Church was "hard" during the Middle Ages. The Church spent a lot of energy providing for the sick and poor, giving people refuge, representing the needs of the poor to the kings, and protecting people.
