A major portion of goods imported to the Southern states were from Europe. Part of the strategy used by Union forces was to block trade to these states. Without the imported items the south was without many essentials.
Confederate soldiers usually received a ration of bacon, corn meal, tea, sugar and/or molasses, and fresh vegetables when they were available. "Johnnie Cake," which is a type of cornbread was a favorite of the Confederate soldier.
Citizens of the south suffered food shortages during the civil war because of the difficulties of planting, and harvesting crops. Many of those who normally did these jobs were away fighting the war. Fields were neglected, and this led to the food shortage.
