Nice find, Clive.
I can't get to my stuff right now, but if you get a copy of the book Das Boot, he describes what they're eating on several occassions.
That's one of the little things I love about the movie: the book describes the different ways the officers eat their daily lemon ration; all of them different, including the 2WO's 'special cocktail'. The movie doesn't go into detail, but if you look closely you'll see that each one of them does something different, including the Chief sucking the lemon after putting sugar directly into his mouth.
