"It was at Darnestown that we were first made acquainted with an article of food called 'desiccated' vegetables. For the convenience of handling, it was made into large, round cakes about 2 inches thick. When cooked it tasted like herb tea.-- It became universally known in the army as 'desecrated' vegetables, and the aptness of this term would be appreciated by the dullest comprehension after one mouthful of the abominable compound." -- Charles E. Davis, 13th Massachusetts This description and many other excerpts from diaries, journals, and letters of Union Army soldiers in the American Civil War are included in Union Army Camp Cooking.
