But I suppose we have to bear in mind that at that time, the other options available (cereals, etc.) weren't nearly as palatable as they are today. People were used to having to heavily process plant foods to get a decent meal.
It also wasn't actually one of the first to be cultivated or domesticated (https://doi.org/10.1007/s00334-023-00917-1). It comes in relatively late; late enough that there probably were domestic cattle around to feed.
