What did people in the Middle Ages drink?
The same things their parents drank! Children would even drink the alcoholic beverages left in their parents glasses and get drunk. Back then, people did not realize that children can be poisoned much more easily than adults, and that they should not eat and drink everything that an adult does. But they also had non alcoholic drinks which were mostly drank by the children.blah blah blah what?haha mad scaredy pants u f*ck
Did they have glass cups in medievil times?
It depends who you mean by "they". Glass was not widely available during the Anglo-Saxon period, except for the most wealthy who had drinking vessels of green glass. Small bottles, beakers and other items were made of green glass through the medieval period, but it was always very expensive and out of the reach of most people - much of it was imported from the Middle East, Italy and other parts of Europe. By the late medieval period clear glass was being made, but it was still something too expensive for ordinary folk. Very little glass has survived for the medieval era, except in Church contexts where painted or stained glass was used frequently in windows. See links below for images:
What kind of utensil's did the medieval times use?
Medieval people used spoons and knives, but usually only used forks for cooking. The fact is, however, that they ate a lot of foods with their fingers, including foods we would not eat that way, like stew and soup. They often went without a bowl for the soup, spooning it instead onto a thick piece of stale bread used as a trencher. They took what soup they could off the bread with a spoon, and then ate the rest, soup and bread, together. Wealthy people had plates, many poor people did not and ate directly off the table. Cups and knives were considered common to the people at the table, so two or more people might share the same cup. There is a link below.
How has mealtime etiquette changed since medieval times?
Medieval people were guided by a desire not to act proud and to be clean. Through part of the Middle Ages, noble lords and their servants all shared meals at a common table. Since they did not know anything at all about how disease spread, their cleanliness did not prevent them from using common eating utensils and cups. They often ate with their fingers, but they considered it to be polite to cut each other's food. Plates and bowls were not always used, especially by poor people, and food was eaten directly off the table. Sometimes people ate from a common plate or bowl, around which they gathered, but it seems most often stale bread was used instead of a bowl for an individual. The bread was broken, scooped if necessary, and made into a trencher, which was then filled with soup or stew, which was eaten from there. When the soup or stew was done, the bread, which was now a wet sop, was eaten. Medieval ladies of some times and places were very interested in appearing delicate and refined. When certain types of foods were being served, they sometimes retired to another room while men ate so they were not be seen with greasy fingers. Later in the Middle Ages the idea of a common table was abandoned altogether and servants ate at a different time in a different room from their lords and ladies. This was condemned by the Church for a while, but became the norm anyway. There is a link to the etiquette section of an article on medieval cuisine below.
How healthy were medieval towns?
In terms of the healthiness of medieval towns, in some ways they were not too bad, but in others they were dreadful. Medieval people were very clean, because they believed the condition of a person's body was a reflection of the condition of that person's soul. They did not like to be exposed to a lot of dirt, so, for example, they tried to keep their feet and hems clean, so they liked to have cleaner streets than many modern people might suppose. The cities and towns of many places, and even some villages, had baths where they could clean up. But they did not have even a small clue about the actual causes of disease. They had no idea that germs could cause illness. And so, for example, out of politeness and a desire to show Christian charity and a spirit of sharing, they used common drinking cups and spoons at the table. For another example, they knew they liked water to taste good, but they did not know a person could get sick from water that tasted good if it had been exposed to people who were sick. The Black Plague happened because there were too many people, too many rats, and too many fleas all living in close proximity. They regarded the rats as a nuisance because they destroyed things, and the fleas as a nuisance because they bit. But they never thought of the rats and fleas as vectors of disease, so they treated the plague in the best way they knew how, in such ways as making sure they filtered the bad smells out of the air, or by doing penance for their sins.
