well, men at sea often ate the rats which infested their ships.
there was such a shortage of food then, that people would eat just about anything they could find. many people died because they did not want to farm. the Indians really helped us when we first arrived, they taught us how to farm maize squash and potatoes among many others, they also gave us lots of turkey and buffalo to help us to survive. we really showed our appreciation didn't we? by invading their world. sand creek, the Trail of Tears. the list goes on.
During the American revolution, common foods that were eaten included beef jerky, cheese, and rolls.
They ate soup,bread and mostley drank wine.
The colonists at Plymouth had fish and shellfish, venison, ducks and wild turkeys. Vegetables included cabbage, beans, onion and squash. Their first wheat crop (in 1621) failed, so they did not have bread. "Indian corn" was ground into a porridge and cooked; some of it may have been made into flatbread. Early on, all cooking was done over open fires, as they did not have ovens.
Amerindians eat: corn,sweet pataoes,hot pepper and they basically they eat plant.
The animals that were brought with the colonists were not native to the land and the colonists allowed them to roam around the colony. When they did this the animals would eat the crops the Native Americans were growing. This caused a problem between the two groups and if one of the Native Americans killed or hurt one of the animals the colonists would charge them for the animal and all the offspring of that animal. Not only were the colonists bringing nonnative animals, but they also introduced plants and insects into the environment trying to create another England. The honey bee was the most destructive insect introduced to North America and essentially the colonists practiced environmental terrorism against the Native Americans.
