BREAD AND BROTH IN THE NAZI CAMPS.
Where LUCK WAS A PIECE OF TURNIP!
Meal times were the most important event of each day. After morning roll call the prisoners would be given their morning ‘meal’ – imitation coffee or herbal ‘tea’. For lunch prisoners would be given a bowl of watery soup. If they were lucky, they might find a piece of turnip or potato peel, the Nazis ate the potatos.In the evening prisoners would be given a piece of black bread weighing 300 grams, together with a tiny piece of sausage, or margarine, marmalade or cheese. The bread was supposed to last the prisoners for the morning also, so prisoners would try to hide it on their person whilst they slept.
ANOTHER WEBSITE SAYS: Prisoners in the camp received three meals daily – in the morning, at midday and in the evening.
In the morning the prisoners received only a half litre of black coffee or of a herbal brew known as tea. These liquids were generally unsweetened.
The midday meal consisted of one portion of soup measuring about three quarters of a litre, with a value of 350 –400 calories. The soup was foul tasting and watery, with ‘meat’ four times a week and the rest with vegetables.
For supper the prisoners were given about 300 grams of bread 10 and a half OUNCES.. and something extra in the shape of about 25 grams of sausage or margarine, 3/4 of an oz ..or a spoonful of jam or cheese. The food value of supper came to about 900 – 1000 calories
Kitty Hart-Moxon, a survivor of Auschwitz-Birkenau, remembers the high value placed on food, and so much wanting to survive the camp. She would sometimes take the piece of bread from the body of someone who had died during the night: “The dead body had a piece of bread...” “... I’m taking this piece of bread from this dead body... ... and I’m taking this one pair of boots and I can sell it. With this I can buy myself a place to live. I can buy myself a place to sleep. With this bread I bought myself a bit of access [to wash basin, to water]. Your bowl was your life, without your bowl you didn’t eat.” ( Moxon's "Return to Auschwitz"
The lack of food, poor diet and hard labour caused the prisoners to suffer from starvation sickness. They lost weight and muscle tissue and many thousands died. I personally had 15 ancestors there, death certifs read 'starvation.' Most became too weak to work and were then murdered in the gas chambers.The appalling conditions in the camp were made worse by the fact that Auschwitz-Birkenau had been built on a swamp. The barracks were often damp. Lice and rats were everywhere. As a result, epidemics of contagious diseases were frequent. (NOTE. Rats are highly edible but who was fast enough on their feet to catch one?) Anyway, I bring it up as USA has built concentration camps all over this nation. http://www.masterjules.net/campsactivated.htm
