Some minstrels were more or less permanently employed at a court. They ate well, and ate the foods of the servants, or better foods, depending on circumstances. People in those days at a lot of bread, vegetables, and some meats, especially if they had the money to do so.
Most minstrels had very precarious circumstances, travelling around and making their way with their music. They ate whatever they could get, with a lot of variation.
