Hardtack
Pretty much the only form of bread ordinary sailors had in the age of sail, also the standard military food of the 19th century.

In the present day german armed forces, a package of hardtack is in every EPA field ration. If you put shoe polish on them, they burn quite well.
Some folks even eat them.
