Ancient Greek Food
Food, for the Greeks, had all sorts of religious and philosophical
meaning.
![Page 23: A step back in time Ancient Greece The Lay of the Land](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d085503460f949d9a27/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The Greeks, to begin with, never ate
meat unless it had been sacrificed to a
god, or had been hunted in the wild.
![Page 24: A step back in time Ancient Greece The Lay of the Land](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d085503460f949d9a27/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
They believed that it was wrong to kill and eat a tame,
domesticated animal without sacrificing it
to the gods.
![Page 25: A step back in time Ancient Greece The Lay of the Land](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d085503460f949d9a27/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Even with vegetables, many Greeks believed that particular foods
were cleaner or dirtier, or that certain
gods liked certain foods better than
others.
![Page 26: A step back in time Ancient Greece The Lay of the Land](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d085503460f949d9a27/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The Pythagoreans, for example, would not eat beans.
But even if you were not a Pythagorean, the Greeks
tended to think of the god Dionysus whenever they drank wine (which was often), and to
think of Demeter and Persephone whenever they
ate bread.
![Page 27: A step back in time Ancient Greece The Lay of the Land](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d085503460f949d9a27/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The Greeks ate mainly the
Mediterranean triad, wheat (or barley or millet),
wine, and olive oil.

sacrificing meat, they may have eaten meat less
than other people did.
