Reminds me of one of my favourite books/movies. "King Rat" by James Clavell. Only way to get fresh meat in one of those nasty Japanese POW camps, was to breed rats.

The book was soooooo much better than the movie.

One of the few things I still remember about my grandfather, who served with the PPCLI in WWI, was his "fondness" of bully beef. He also told great stories of his time overseas while showing me his wounds and scars. Unfortunately he passed while I was still too young to appreciate what he was talking about.

I suppose it's like Andouillette. You develop a taste for it it or you puke at the thought of it. Bully Beef is just disgusting.

Corned beef hash? I'm confused. I thought 'Bully Beef' was that salted mostly fatty stuff you get in buckets?

I like Corned beef hash. With cabbage. [drool]

Right. The crap in buckets. You boil it till it's not shoe leather anymore, and try to eat it. Not even similar to Corned Beef, except they were both once part of a cow.

Canned corned beef and a corned beef brisket are about as dissimilar as canned ham or spam and a real baked ham. I actually prefer pastrami over corned beef(which I like ) which is smoked before pickling...that's the main difference between the two.

The soldiers said that they had so much bully Beef that they dug cases of it in under their guns, to give them a firm platform in the Flanders mud.

I wonder if any Belgians are killed when plowing into unexploded Bully Beef tins?
