Everyone thought that the wars would be short so they brought little food. They soon had a food shortage and relied on erzats food.
Well what do u think, at least i can say that it wasnt exactly a banquet
In the trenches, there was water. Like when you can't play a football match, you have a waterlogged pitch. If you stood in the mud and water in the trenches for too long, you caught trench foot, which is sometimes fatal if you don't remove the gangrene.
It probably sucked...they were in trenches...and trenches collect water...people in the trenches were at risk of getting trench foot...and there were trench rats too....try sleeping in a cold damp muddy hole :)
Reserve trenches
British Trenches were waterlogged due to 2 key reasons:The geography of the trenches meant that they were largely flat and below sea level. This meant water was trapped in the trenches as they were dips in the groundThe trenches also had poor drainage systems, which did not allow water to escape
It used to store food
yes and no
In the winter the trenches gave way and fell in. They were in a state. They were two or three feet in water and mud.

Smelly ,hardly food and water, lack of hygiene, very hot or very cold, health was bad or it would get bad, shell shock, rats, bugs... etc etc
The same we have now, not as good quality, In the trenches the men ate bread water and other carry-along products, like soup and crackers. but during the war the soldiers had very limited acess to nourrishment.
The Trenches were grotty , digusting and they had no room
