I dont think Anglo Saxon cuisine was that bad.

Remember that wild animals would have tasted much stronger than the bland
meat such as chicken we endure today.

Ive no idea what Pike tastes like, or Eels and Perch for that matter, but
they couldnt have been too bad or their bones would not have been found in
piles around known settlements.

Ok, so they didnt have sugar; but they had honey to sweeten things, plus a
multitude of edible berries at different times of year.

Just because there is a national myth that our ancestors lived on turnips
doesnt mean we have to believe that as well.

Wild garlic would have been plentiful in the hedgerows if they wished to add
it to the cooking pot.
