impacts of early european settlement (1788)
- The ships from the First Fleet, sent from England with convicts landed at Sydney Cove on 26 January, 1788.
- The first settlers came ashore to a country different from England.
- The food supply was rationed and consumed within two years.
- Women received two-thirds of these rations and children were eligible for one-third.
- People on these rations were often very hungry and the meals were rather uninteresting due to the limited ingredients.
- The meat rations were often used to make stews and pies. The flour was used to make damper.
- The rations were generally high in fat and protein and particularly low in dietary fibre.
- These rations remained the basic diet for most Australians for the first 50 years of settlement.
- The convicts had little knowledge of the Australian native foods. Some proved poisonous or had a terrible taste.
- A general lack of Vitamin C meant that scurvy was a constant problem.
