“The English were largely self sufficient as a nation in food in the early 17th century. However, although the staples were all produced at home or from the neighbouring seas, there was a wide range of luxury products that were imported. The use of these imports was by no means confined to the upper classes, although the rich undoubtedly used them far more often and copiously.
