== The major Major changes ==
After World War II (1939-1945), the dietary regime in Iparralde (the Northern Basque Country lying within France(Iparralde) underwent major changes, particularly within less well-off families.
In the countryside, pork was the only meat eaten for lunch; some households would not eat meat every day; bread was the daily staple and it was baked once a week at every farmstead until World War II.
The whole family would sit at the same table: parents, children, servants, ''mutilak''; each person had their place at the table; at many farmsteads, however, the mistress of the household, ''etxeko anderia'', ate separately, either with the small children, or standing up as it was her task to serve the men, ''gizonak''.
At the start of the 20<sup>th</sup> 20th century, people ate using a spoon, ''kuilera'', and fork, ''furtxeta'', even though some older persons in the country never used those utensils, but ate with their fingers, ''erhiekin''.
