midrats: a crosspost
a taste from the post:midrats. that quasi-meal between supper and breakfast, served underway, or when we were in port working shiftwork.
typically, horsecock sandwiches, and some reconstituted dried gack like chicken noodle soup, or some other mysterious concoction the cooks cobbled together.
one advantage of midrats at sea was that the bread was usually fresh out of the oven. god, how many huge chunks of fresh boatbread, buried under a slab of butter did i eat while underway?

Not sure about "horsecock sandwiches, and some reconstituted dried gack like chicken noodle soup", unless that was wardroom speak. But I did love the beanie weenies and chicken wheels/nuggets.
