About this coffee roast
July 24, 1777 –The Boston Food Riot was by a group of women who, frustrated by the skyrocketing cost of food during the War, took direct action against merchants hoarding essential goods.These women, many of them the wives of soldiers and laborers, stormed a warehouse in the North End, demanding fair prices for food staples like bread and flour. As Abigail Adams wrote to her husband, John, “a number of females, some say a hundred, some say more, assembled with a cart and trucks, marched down to the warehouse, and demanded the keys, which he refused to deliver.” When Boylston stood up to the women, “one of them seized him by his neck and tossed him into the cart. Upon his finding no quarter, he delivered the keys, when they tipped up the cart and discharged him, then opened the warehouse, hoisted out the coffee themselves, put it into the trucks and drove off.”
