Did you know that #hardtack, the long lasting flour & water #cracker used by seafarers & soldiers, was made round at #sea & square on land?

During sea voyages, hardtack was stored in barrels (hence: round), while during land campaigns it was stored in wooden boxes, & therefore made square.

#British Royal Navy sailors were issued 50g more hardtack than #US #Navy sailors.

During Queen Victoria's reign, now made with machines, hardtack became a cost efficient hexagonal shape.

All about ship's #hardtack. Actually a pretty interesting video about hardtack, how to make it--and at the end the cook eats a piece that's 10 years old! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9tdBrpp1V0

Does anyone else experience the same mental image of Max Miller beaming and the sound clack-clack when they hear the words Hard Tack (clack-clack)?
