Based on context clues in this paragraph, sparse most nearly means _The farmer's diet was a sparse one, based on drinking beer and eating bread, a few vegetables, and some protein in the form of fish and eggs. The noble dief was almost limitless: fancy fruits, deer, duck, cheese, butter, and honey. Nobles, however, might for religious reasons avoid eating pork and fish.
