| Research Abstract |
The diet of English working class drastically changed during the Industrial Revolution, mainly through introduction of tea with sugar, potato, and milk. Having been a status symbol of the upper sort of people, tea rapidly became a code of urban laboring people, for it was quite appropriate to the urban style of low life and new labor discipline. On the other hand, potato also became very popular because of its high efficiency as a source of energy. Milk was absolutely necessary as a source of calcium and protein. In 1860s, these three types of food became cheaply obtainable in the healthy condition even in cities and checked the downward trend of English working-class people's height.
