The poor ancient Egyptians meat usually included fish and a variety of different types of birds, such as chickens, ducks, geese, quails, and cranes. But the poor Egyptians rarely got any meat and were lucky to get any at all.
The food, apart from the meat, was partly figs, grapes, pita bread (not like the average pita bread these days - back then, the pita bread was so hard it could almost break ones teeth) . Beer and bread were common foods. Honey has been found in ancient tombs. They also ate fruit.
The Egyptians grew cereals such as wheat and barley. There were no chickens or turkeys in ancient Egypt but they kept cattle, sheep, goats, ducks, geese and pigs. They also kept bees, fished and hunted the wild animals. The staples of both poor and wealthy Egyptians were bread and beer,
Because of religious stigma, many types of seafood were avoided.
Food was normally fresh and simple, but they also made stews, porridges , and soups. They had a good supply of fresh foods, so they weren't heavily salted or flavored like in Rome or Greece.
