Common foods eaten during the early days of the United States and Canada included things like corn, potatoes, wheat, apples, pumpkins, and wild berries. Meats were anything in abundance that could be easily killed like deer, elk, moose, bear, squirrel, wild turkey and wild pigeons. They commonly also had livestock (cattle, pigs, horses, and chickens) and would often slaughter a pig or steer for the winter. Dishes prepared by pioneer women include cornbread, jams, apple pies, cream, and butter.
