During the Eureka Stockade in 1854, miners primarily consumed simple, portable foods that were easy to prepare. Common items included damper (a type of bread), salted meat, and various dried fruits and vegetables. Some miners also foraged for local produce or relied on supplies from nearby towns. Their diet was often limited and not particularly varied, reflecting the tough conditions of the goldfields.
