[[Period]] cooking styles vary from region to region and were, for the most part, dictated by locally available ingredients.

Food and [[feast]]ing was a big part of [[period]] life. Large festivals held to celebrate major (and minor) events would usually involve a [[feast]].

Making period foods doesn't have to be hard. Most ingredients can be found at your local supermarket.

There are certain things that aren't [[period foods]], such as potatoes (which will come as a surprise to some), tomatoes, eggplant and chocolate.
A list of other foods that aren't [[period]] are listed under [[new world foods]].
