\u201cWelcome to our new three-part food history series Hungry Gap, Fat Friars, Food Poverty<\/em>. In this series we will explore food and drink production and consumption in Ireland and Britain over one thousand years starting at 1000 and ending in 2023 and learn how our ancestors coped during the good times and the bad times. The history of food is the history of your neighbourhood, of your country; it\u2019s the history of the world. So, get yourself a snack, and join our food historians and community participants, on this one-thousand-year journey.\u201d<\/p>\n

The year 1000 may seem like a long time ago, but it\u2019s a mere blip on the timeline in the history of human procurement and consumption of food and drink. We are entering a pivotal time in Irish and British history, but people still need to eat, so how did the food situation play out across society up until 1500? Here to help us navigate the culinary landscape of these five hundred years are Regina Sexton and Margaret Hickey.<\/p>\n
