Thailand, Ireland, and Italy, what the heck did those people eat before hot peppers, potatoes and tomatoes.

Dirt?
Life was tougher back in those days. People got an arm chopped off and they treated it as a mere flesh wound (or so I saw in a British Documentary about the Black Knight, and King Arthur, and some dangerous bunny rabbit...). Half the population would get wiped out by the Plague and it would be treated with a shoulder shrug.

I’m just glad that spell check worked on potatoes and tomatoes.
