What natural events occurred around 1300 to change Europe's relationship to food?

What will be an ideal response?


Answers will vary. Students should reflect an understanding of the severe drop in temperature that created a Little Ice Age, thus creating crises in agriculture such as flooding and soil exhaustion, which led to famine, and the thievery of food. Also, shifts and the diet and culture of Northern Europe, such as the preference of beer over wine, were to have a lasting impact on the culture.
