Abstract

This paper analyzes, from a documentary research, the influence of the state of war, which culminated in the Independence of Bahia on July 2nd, 1823, in the eating habits of nineteenth-century Bahians. For this, we resorted to the journey of travelers who passed through Bahia in the course of the 19th century, as well as research by historians and researchers who portray about food in this period. It could be observed that the battles directly influenced as they led directly in the supply and demand of food, making food and eating important fragments in this story, although it's not at the center of the discussion of several historians. In addition, manioc flour can be seen as the protagonist in this food historiography and that is why it appears here with its popular name: “war flour”.
