- In olden times when the people had no tea, their food consisted of oaten bread, skimmed milk, potatoes and oatmeal stirabout. Their first meal in the morning, consisted of oaten bread and skimmed milk. Then for dinner, about one o'clock, they used have potatoes and skimmed milk, and for supper, stirabout and milk. They very seldom had meat, only when they killed rabbits or hares.
