Not all food that is commonly eaten today was available in Europe in period. Various plants originated in the New World and took a while to become used in Europe.
- chocolate (well there is ONE specific recipe for chocolate tart that is apparently documentably pre-1600 (just), but all other uses of chocolate are best proven period first).
- new world vegetables
- new world fruits
- pumpkins
- pineapples -- (although they are supposed to have been carved, in period, within Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland)
- papayas
- tropical fruits
- meats
(Note-Yes, those meats can be eaten and were by indigenous tribes.)
