What was the most diverse thing a commoner might eat in medieval Europe?

by Cauzix

I understand their diets were pretty bland for the most part but let’s say a commoner were to spend some good money at a local market on food. What would some of their top options be? How common are regular fruits? Vegetables? I would assume the “top options” would be better with a better social class- how much different would a kings top choice be as opposed to a commoners? What about spices?

Hello, I wrote an answer to this question previously here.

You may find the Medieval diet was less bland than you thought.
