Best Answer

During the Revolutionary War, food that soldiers ate was very bland. They usually had a steady diet, as opposed to the British who didn't receive as much food because it's much harder to supply an army that is 3,000 miles away, across an ocean. The diet of the soldiers included rice, beef or pork, peas/beans/another vegetable, Indian meal, spruce beer or cider, salted fish, molasses, bread or flour, and also vinegar. Rations were given out by either daily or weekly amounts. Closer to the end of the war, rations could run very low, and they did. The soldiers usually survived on "firecakes" - a mixture of water and flour cooked over the fire.
