Rations in the trenches wre very limited they were given a few cracker like biscuits, if they were lucky some bacon and cheese but they mainly survived on Bully beef, which was basically tinned corned beef.

Intrestingly each man got a daily ration of rum to keep him warm and his morale high

They also had a tinned stew called maconachie which contained water mmixed with chloride and dried vegetables. If there were no vegetables some sodiers used leaves as they added flavour

they mostly got meat, they got one pound of meat a day, they also got Bacon but they only got four ounces of that. they were given allot of fish in fact they got to much of that, they got sausages to.

they had one pound of bread a day which was mad by the people who stayed behind from the war to do their jobs.
