In Colonial America and the United States, slaves were fed as their masters saw fit.

Slaves have been held since the beginning of time -- by Ancient Romans, Ancient Greeks, Ancient Egyptians, African Tribes, the list goes on. I assumed your question was referring to the Americas because they are the most talked about.]
