James Cook ate normal food when it was available. This would include roasted meats and vegetables. He was keen to keep his crew healthy and free from scurvy, so when fresh foods were not available, he ensured the crew were fed sauerkraut or pickled cabbage, which is high in vitamin C. He also had lime juice.
