Vikings’Diet

Vikings, at least in medieval English texts, were portrayed as gluttonous people, fond of the pleasures of the table.

But the truth is the Norsemen, as they were commonly called during the Middle Ages, ate perhaps a lot, but rather healthy.

Their diet was way more nutritious than the ones followed by other European populations. They ate meat stew at least once a day (mainly pork, but also mutton, beef and horsemeat… which made Christians on the other side of the North Sea appal).

And then seafood, as such herring and cod. And a lot of vegetables like cabbage, carrots and beans. Wild fruit (especially berries and apples) and oatmeal.

Now, on the picture, you can see a train of extractor canopies ready to be shipped to Sweden (Destination: Trelleborg, down in the South).

Despite they’re manufactured by Aluminox in Italy, they are suitable for the new Viking Cuisine.

Or any other cuisine really.

Either old or new!
