Oh damn, that’s a fucking feast! Peasents can’t afford that shit.
Looks pretty good, but I’d like some BBQ sauce, at least.
Or hot sauce 🤤
A medieval peasant on a celebration day. I doubt they could eat a whole as chicken every day
Depends on which era honestly. The medieval period lasted for nearly a thousand years and could vary about as much as one would expect, so for example a very well off peasant during the high medieval period maybe could have eaten a whole ass chicken for a while at least. Probably wouldn’t have though, at least not without turning it into soup or a sandwich equivalent.
Yeah communally like a couple times a year if lucky and most likely spent hens or cockrels not this monstrosity of a broiler meat bred bird.
My kind of vegetable-less meal.
Reminds me of a pretty recent game called Pentiment that’s like an old school point and click adventure about a murder in a middle age German Abby where a bunch of conversations happen over meals & who you eat with can have an effect on a bunch if stuff in the game. it was pretty cool to include and I’m guessing they tried to go for some accuracy considering how much detail they use on the foods.
Pentiment is so good
You’re going to be constipated
Can confirm this will happen if you eat nothing but rotisserie chickens every day five days in a row
Ummmm…. story time?
… so I needed to go 5 days without pooping…
The person for sure needs to learn how to cook
They definitely bought that at a store in a bag. They are delicious.

I’m a vegetarian once removed. A lot of the animals I eat were vegetarians.
This at least reduces biomagnification.
A chicken would eat you if it could
Agree. If you throw anything into a chicken yard - and I mean anything - they will try to eat it.
Hogs eat anything you put in their trough and I mean anything.
This is an argument that it’s morally fair to be chickenarian
And everyone you love.
Hey I didn’t say all of them, and the chicken that defeats me in single combat is welcome to feed upon my corpse.
I ain’t fuckin’ with THAT chicken, I’ve seen him do some shit.
Potatoes could. The leaves, sprouts, and underground stems (tubers) of potatoes contain a toxic substance called glycoalkaloid. Glycoalkaloids make a potato look green when it’s exposed to light, gets damaged, or ages. Eating potatoes with a high glycoalkaloid content can cause nausea, diarrhea, confusion, headaches, and death.
Also, the sentient mutant vegetables on Atrack of the Killer Tomatoes will definitely want to do harm toward OP.
Not to mention, if you try to swallow a potato whole (as one does), you risk choking to death.
From what I understand, green potatoes are rendered harmless by boiling, as the poisons are water soluble. Though they are not rendered inactive by boiling, they are diffused through the water, rendering it inadvisable to reuse for boiling other foods. Following that, harvesting these poisons is relatively easy and a good way to get Cheney, that asshole, to keep to his own fucking food.
Not disagreeing, trying to keep food waste down.
How did we get to Cheney here?
With soup
now I have Attack of the Killer Tomatoes song in my head, what a fucking classic!
I think the sequel is even better
I am sure you shouldn’t eat raw potatoes anyway
Tomatoes are fruit! Although I don’t know if the mutant tomatoes still count as such.
Is wheat not a vegetable?
Wheat grain is strictly a vegetable, being an edible plant part. But people usually use the word to refer to a socially-constructed category which is completely feels-based. Membership tends to be determined by flavor profile, nutrition content, and whether the given part falls into another popular sub-category (such as fruit or nuts). This is why fruits like the tomato and pumpkin are usually sorted as vegetables separately from fruits with generally sweeter flavors like the banana or orange.
Vegetables like grains, legumes, and certain tubers will often be grouped together as “carbs” due to their high carbohydrate content which distinguishes them from low-calorie, high-fiber vegetables like spinach or broccoli.
Most vegetables are poisonous just saying
That’s really stretching the definition of “vegetables”.
Probably hard to from their hospital bed, but I don’t see what this feast fit for a squire has to do with that.
Oh yeah? Do you think a bit of fiber finally moving all that trapped poop is harmless? We don’t all have guts of steel like SOMEBODY.
This was my Christmas dinner during Covid, lol. Pair it with Siracha and gravy from the roasting drippings and baby you got a stew going
I don’t think there are any drippings. This looks like a Costco chicken with that ready to bake bread I’ve seen recently.
Would a medieval peasant have access to that much meat?
King Richard I was once captured for ransom while traveling undercover trough Austria.
His cover was blown specifically because he tried ordering a roast chicken.
There are a few variations of the details in this story though, a peasant could definitely have owned a chicken and eaten it when it died but it was probably way more valuable to sell it.
Doubtful, most common meal for peasants would have been a sort of stew of vegetables and oats called pottage.
A whole chicken would have been prohibitively expensive either to purchase or in lost money from sale at market, same for pork or beef.
Fish though would be plentiful and cheap and a valuable source of protein. Oysters were considered peasant food until pretty much the 20th century.
Wheat bread similarly would have been a rare luxury, especially made from refined white flour, rye and buckwheat, roughly ground would be far more common.
I read this comment in Max Miller’s voice and it definitely enhanced it
I read it through his blue, blue eyes
Oysters were so common that they were incredibly cheap, but they were not considered peasant food. They were enjoyed among the different classes.
Oysters until even the late 20th century, yes?
Yes, they had chickens back then.
“The tall, skinny ones are confused, Brother…”
They’d have access, but you’re not wrong, a peasant probably isn’t going to waste that much on a single meal.
A roasted bird? Why not? Y’all are making assumptions that this is a chicken and the peasant a small farmer but why not a traveling mime trapping pigeons from the square?
You ever seen a pigeon?
Not without feathers but a bird is a bird
