There was a dish called skillygalee, where you would take the hardtack and soak it in cold water, then fry it in pork fat adding salt to taste. Or you could toast them over an open fire and add butter if you could find it. There were many ways to eat it.

[@SvenskaIdioterna]

Well, you easily taste when milk goes bad and even when it does, it's not as if it'll make you sick. At least in my experience, when it starts tasting more cream like, it's time to throw although you can still take a few sips if you want. This is usually a week after opening it and a few days after the expiration date. However, I'm the type that never leaves things out of the fridge for long. I just pour myself a glass and put the milk back in. Same with butter and all other things. It never reaches even close to room temp. If you're in a family and eating meals together, placing everything on the table, it might not last as long. But if you're alone like me, just making your own portions and then going to the couch to eat, then things'll last longer.

I am a Cook for a Civil War re-enactment group, been doing it for over 30 years now, I began many years ago frying my hard tack in bacon fat, which is something just about every soldier & battlefield cooks had on hand with a lot of bacon, grease & hard tack, frying for a minute or 2 makes the outside crust much softer with an easier to bite crunch to it & the inside soft, & the bacon grease gives it an excellent flavor especially when adding a couple of spices, I got this idea from an older Lady I met on the battlefield at Gettysburg once with our group camping out & she showed me a letter that had been passed down in her Family for years, one of her relatives that fought in the war had written home to his Wife & mentioned the food they ate, including the hard tack & he said it could break teeth, but many began frying in bacon fat which made it much better to eat & add oregano. Since most soldiers & cooks back then did have bacon handy they had bacon fat/grease & used it for this purpose.

The thing is that hardtack is basically a wet piece of bread baked into a hard biscuit. It's *this solid* when its made. The specific reason was that maggots didn't eat it. Weevils got into them if I remember correctly. Wood weevils.

Given that nutrition wasn't properly understood until much later, probably not.

[@petroleumcrypt707]

@@SonofSethoitae That's not necessarily true. Even the ancient Romans understood this, though meat was too expensive for most people.

You know what makes this channel so great? You actually use and partake of the history that most who would have an interest in would keep tucked away in a safe or on display in a glass case. These old MREs and silverware are stamps of history that most wouldn’t dream of using or eating lol But you have old, civil war era silverware... you use it. It may just be me but that just blows my mind. I have crap from 20 years ago that I’m negligent to use because it’s “old.” Life is short and spoiler alert, we die at the end. So it’s nice to actually see some interaction with pieces if history rather than just a glance from behind a glass pane. This is obviously not to say that everything that’s old should be played with but actually being involved with the history you own is a far more palatable approach than simply letting them outlive you on a shelf, covered in dust.
