During the early American colonial years, com was more plentiful than wheat, so com breed was more common than wheat bread. Friendly Indians showed colonists how to grow com and how to prepare it for food and pioneer women then improved the Indian cooking techniques. When people traveled, they went on foot or horseback, sleeping and eating in the forests. They carded com bread for sustenance; the com bread came to be called journey cake. Later when roads and taverns were built and stagecoaches carded passengers, journeycake became johnnycake, a name many easterners still use for corn breed. The kinds of bread made with cornmeal were-and still are-almost without limit. Every region has its specialties.
Why was com bread called "journey cake"?
选项
A、It was easy to ship from England.
B、Horses occasionally ate it if there was no grain available.
C、People took it with them when they traveled.
D、It was easy to prepare over an open fire in the forests.
