Cockle bread : ウィキペディア英語版 | Cockle bread
Cockle bread was an inferior type of British corn or wheat bread mixed with 'Cockle weed'. In the 17th century a practice known as 'moulding' cockle-bread had a sexual connotation. Cockle bread is also mentioned in 19th century nursery rhyme. ==Cockle weed bread== The play The Old Wives' Tale by George Peele, first published in 1595, has a reference to 'cockle-bread'. Editor of a 20th-century edition of the play, Charles Whitworth points to the 'cockle' as a weed found in corn and wheat fields and suggests 'cockle-bread' to be a possibly inferior bread, made from those grains, with the weed mixed into it. William Carew Hazlitt writing in ''Faith and folklore: a dictionary'' in 1905, gives the same explanation of 'Cockle Bread' as Whitworth.
