rusk

At 2 p.m., the diners — a flock of white parrots known as Goffin’s cockatoos — receive an assortment of dried fruit, seeds, cornflakes, bird pellets and a dry, twice-baked toast known as rusk or zwieback.

Some restaurants will also serve breakfast with fruit pudding, a mix of flour, rusk, oatmeal and fruit.

If you try to monkey with it too much from a later perspective you run the rusk of muddying the waters.

I haven't eaten meat since - mac and cheese, green grapes and baby rusks have become my staples.

Biscuits went by unappetizing names such as hardtack, rusks and ship’s biscuits, their durability their main asset.
