What did Roman soldiers actually eat every day? You might expect meat, feasts, and strong meals. But the reality was much simpler. The core of a Roman soldier’s diet was grain. Wheat was ground into flour and turned into bread or a thick porridge called puls. It was basic… but it kept them going. Meat was not daily. Sometimes they had salted pork or dried meat, but it depended on supplies. They also carried cheese, olives, and vinegar mixed with water — a drink called posca. It wasn’t about taste.
