🍔 Mythbusting History: “People in the Middle Ages didn’t eat vegetables.”

🧅 MYTH: Medieval diets were all meat, bread, and ale — nobody ate vegetables.

🥬 TRUTH: Peasants and nobles ate a wide variety of veggies: onions, leeks, turnips, cabbage, garlic, peas, spinach, and more. Monastic gardens were overflowing with herbs and greens.

Vegetables weren’t missing — the myth comes from historical bias, not historical menus.
