In the time of Jesus did people eat three meals a day?

Answer 1

Jesus was known to eat bread, fish, wine---whatever was handy. He lived off the land, too, eating things like figs, and different fruits.

Since the Middle East was part of the Roman Empire there was a wide variety of foods that were exported. They would have had oranges, limes, lemons, eels, fish, beef, rice, breads of all sorts, soups and strew, beef, and lamb, birds of all sorts were also eaten. New World foods like potatoes, tomatoes, and chocolate were unknown.

Answer 2

During the time of Jesus, people typically ate two main meals per day - one mid-morning and one in the evening. The mid-morning meal was usually a small breakfast to break the night's fast, while the evening meal was the main meal of the day. Snacks and smaller meals may have been consumed in between.

Answer 3

No.
