<span>In1629 the Massachusetts Bay Company set out for America. Around 18,000 puritan settlers immigrated at that time having given up on the idea of reforming the Church of England. The colonists wanted to keep the bulk of the ideas held by the Church of England but were anxious to be rid of some aspects. The community centered heavily around the church and most legislative activity was conducted at the church meeting house in the same way that religion was at the center of every Puritan's life. Only male members of the church had any say in the governing of the colony. John Winthrop, the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, outlined the goals of the colony in his sermon called "A model of Christian Charity." He dictated that the colony should be based solidly on the ideas of the church and that all law should flow directly from their Godly beliefs. The colony believed that their success was directly tied to their selfless devotion to God and community.</span>

Specifically what were the KINDS of food that the confederates ate
Bumek [7]

Food rations in the military were delivered to Union soldiers by volunteers in the United States Sanitary Commission. The purpose of the commission was to ensure that <span>Civil War soldiers </span>were fed healthy and nutritional meals to prevent malnutrition and food poisoning.

An African-American army cook in City Point, VA

Since the focus was on health and nutrition, not culinary delight, and there were around 2 million soldiers to feed, the food tended to be bland, basic and simple. Each soldier’s daily rations included:

1. Three-quarters of a pound of pork or bacon, or one and one-quarter pound of fresh or salt pork
2. Eighteen ounces of flour or bread or 12 ounces of hardtack
3. One and one-quarter pound of cornmeal

Hardtack, also known as “army bread,” was type of hard, dry biscuit that soldiers had to soak in water and fry in grease or pork fat in order to eat.

Each unit was also given a food ration in addition to each soldier’s individual ration. A 100 man company was given:

1. Eight quarts of peas or beans, or 10 pounds of rice
2. Six to 10 pounds of coffee or one and one-half pounds of tea
3. Twelve to 15 pounds of sugar
4. Two quarts of salt

Vegetables, dried fruits, pickles and pickled cabbage were sometimes issued to prevent scurvy but only in small quantities. Other foods soldiers occasionally ate included baked beans, hardtack pudding, ashcakes and milk toast.

When weather or nearby fighting interrupted food deliveries, soldiers often had to forage for food. In extreme cases, such as during the Battle of Vicksburg, the soldiers had to eat rats, cats, bullfrogs and dogs, according to the book The Civil War Book of Lists.

The Confederate army provided its soldiers with the same rations as Union soldiers but food shortages in the south, caused by blockades of southern harbors, often made many of the ingredients hard to come by which forced many of the soldiers to hunt or forage for food.

As a result, boiled peanuts, which were an abundant crop in the south, became a staple of the Confederate army’s diet.
