What Food was like for Native Americans on American Frontier

In the hushed tapestry of the American frontier, where the murmurs of the wild whispered secrets of survival, food was more than sustenance for the Native Americans—it was an intricate dance with nature. From the ripe untold delicious pawpaw fruit to a nice smoked aligator? Their plates bore not just meals, but stories of resilience, respect, and interconnectedness, a testament to a culinary heritage that thrived on the edge of the wilderness. Dive into their forgotten world, and discover how these original inhabitants revered, hunted, and harvested, painting their survival and symbiosis with food against the grand canvas of the American frontier.

Thank you for making this. I have always been so dismayed at the lack of accurate and in depth historical videos on native american culture and history. I am seeing alot more videos pop up recently and its amazing. I love learning about other native histories because I only know my own region's history in the northern great plains

My name of my tribe, the Natchitoches, means the paw paw people

The Indigenous community where I live call fried bread bannock. The delicious fare I have had the privilege of tasting was filled with venison/fish/rabbit or wild turkey...actually. We got a lotta wild Turkey in Ontario YO! I live in an area of the city with a high concentration of Indigenous people that are First Nations or Inuit.

I admit I am not a fan of "game meat" ...I gotta say without a doubt, when combined with lovely wild local vegetables and herbs, baked like a pie or filled like a pocket and fried it tastes that much better when the person who cooked the food also, in this day an age, believe it or not, hunted/foraged for the majority of the ingredients, its truly a taste experience.

Love your content I really do learn things when I watch your channel!

I'm a Quechan (kwatsan) native American. We're kinds known but not as much as the famous Black foot native or apache. We were know for the war for Fort yuma and what happened their in Yuma Arizona.

I am currently completing my doctoral project - investigating commensal practices over time in the Wari capital city - Huari.
I always have this channel on while working in the lab. This episode was wonderful. I have comments but that doesn't matter. More ancient foodways, please!!!

[ehhhh]

The natives had a golden diet they always teach of eating to live and eating to heal. I prefer this over “ we have better tasting food” I want a diet that will benefit my body and mind.

[Manoomin_Outdoors]

Ojibwe ate wildrice, 3 sisters, deer, elk, buffalo and ate of fish. We had pine alcohol.

One of the main food items that moderns don't even think about is the American Chestnut. The forests were full of them.

The Seminole tribe hasn't been hunting alligators for thousands of years because the tribe itself didn't form until the 18th century.

Cool video Nutty History! I pick and eat paw paw fruit when ripe in mid September here in Pontiac, Michigan. Paw paw fruit trees grow all around the Clinton River trail and in flood plains. Very tall trees with huge broad leafs. I have a YouTube video of me picking paw paw fruit on my YouTube channel.

[adamwerner]

I never knew paw paws were American. They're pretty common in Australia and I always assumed they came from Asia like bananas and mangos. They grow really easy here too.

[hellomoto]

Teswin, or Tesguino/ Tesjuino can still be found all over Mexico. For those of you who live in Southern California or visit Socal one day, you can have an opportunity to taste it at "El Mercadito del Este de Los Angeles" in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles.

[TheMariangel]

I'm mad I've never had a pawpaw in my life as banana and mango are some of my favorite fruits
