If you lived in Colonial Times you would eat a lot of corn. If you lived by the sea you might eat lobsters, clams or other sea food. People who lived inland would eat rabbits, squirrels, bear, deer, and other wild game. Most people also grew fruits and vegatables.

In Colonial Times people drank a lot of different drinks than we do now. You could drink water, milk, cider,or beer. Even little children drank beer.

What you ate and drank depended on how rich or poor you were. It could also depend on how much game there was in the area you were living in.
