Abstract

The nature of Egypt provided people with different types of foods. Besides meat and fish consumed in large quantities by the ancient Egyptian, the nature also provided them with different vegetables, fruits, wheat and beans. The ancient Egyptians also made bread considered main food from which different types of other food were made. They also knew how to make pies, sweets as well as dates, honey, and milk. They also knew fruits such as apples, pomegranates and vegetables including garlic, onions and celery. They also knew the beverage industry and made beer from barley and wine from grapes. Wine was always used as a sacrificial offering to the gods, a rite of worship, a sacrosanct ritual of worship, an appeasement of the angry idols, and making them feel happy. Wine was also used on in celebrations and religious holidays. They used to have three meals a day. Sometimes, food was served on two meals: the main meal was in the afternoon, the second was served in the evening. Food was served in pots placed on a table higher than the ground from which food dishes were carved. They also used to have food with their hands. That is why they used to wash their hands before and after eating. ا
