A few of those were umm interesting...

My personal favorite would have to be the hardtack festival

It could be held much like the Fruitcake festivals...

Hardtack tossing

Hartack recipes (actually attempting to make it edible! Attempting to use it in other recipes etc.

Hardtack Art/ chainsaw carving competition

Hardtack eati.....wait no not that one unless the festival is going to coencide with the dental festival!

I made some hartack a few years back, and low and behold, it is still in my desk here at school, wrapped and ready for our unit in Social Studies! It actually was good when warm, but as it cooled it hardened, and took on a texture much like honestly....dried cement

In fact, a common joke among American Civil War reenactors is that hardtack made 140 years ago "tastes just as good" now as it did back then. That prompted me to create a few ads/ and a custom hardtack logo-design for the fictitious Hartack Festival of 2010....Here they are! I would love a shirt with this on there...maybe I'll do a one-off of the second design!
