  • Actually these breads were rare and only given to wounded soldiers by nurses. Mostly only soldiers in the Union ate hardtack and both sides ate salted pork and salted beef and hunted their own food. Most Confederates ate dried peas and beans. They rarley got lemonade and most drank coffee made from acorns.

  • This REALLY helped me on Social Studies, I'll definitely be sharing this with my history class. Thanks again! -Jay

  • Ahaha indeed- and the hardtack needs salt. :)

    I was just reading about hardtack a few days ago.
