What was Bartolomeu Dias favorite food?

Answer 1

At home in Portugal, Bartolomeu Dias [c. 1450-May 29, 1500] would have dined on the the best foods to which he was entitled through his noble rank, and his job in the royal court. He would have eaten the best of breads; the finest of spicedand sugared deserts and dried sweet fruitssuch as apricots; and the tenderest of fish and meatdishes. A favorite dessert might have been rice pudding seasoned with cinnamon. Favorite fruits might have been the grapes that had been in Portugal since Roman times, and the lemons and Oranges that had been around since the Moorish beginnings in the Iberian Peninsula. Special treats might have been the almonds and figs that the Moors had left firmly established in Iberia. On an expedition, Dias likewise would have eaten the best of the supply ship's fare. Fresh water would have been stored in barrels. But not too far into his southward voyages, Dias and his crew would have relied more on wine and less on water to drink. For the rising temperatures around the Equator quickly would have encouraged the growth of algae and bacteria. The water supply would have looked, smelled and tasted bad. Food on the expedition would have included bread, dried fruits, and preserved and salted fish and meats such as beef and pork.
