3 What did they eat? The Tudors are famous for their rich food, over eating and for their three hour meals, although it was only the rich nobility that could afford such luxury. Their food was often highly spiced and seasoned, both to show wealth, and to disguise the fact that the meat was often of very poor quality. Most people ate a great deal of meat, which was preserved by salting, smoking or drying. It was quite an unhealthy diet especially for the rich people as vegetables were not popular, the rich people thought that vegetables were suitable only for the poor people to eat. A lot of salt was used in preserving the huge amount of meat that they ate. A lack of vitamin A, found in green vegetables. milk, butter and eggs, often led to problems in later life. Rich people despised these foods because the lower classes ate them

4 What were clothe like? Rich men wore a linen shirt and a tight- fitting jacket called a doublet. Over there was another jacket which came out over the hips. They wore stockings and padded breeches instead of trousers. Most wore a velvet or fur hat. Rich men wore a linen shirt and a tight-fitting jacket called a doublet.
