Sharecroppers primarily consumed a diet based on what they could grow or afford. Common staples included cornmeal, beans, greens, and sweet potatoes, often supplemented by small amounts of meat, such as pork or chicken. Many sharecroppers also relied on food rations provided by landowners, which could include flour, sugar, and molasses. Their diet was typically limited and heavily influenced by economic conditions and seasonal availability.
