What is a pap boat?

 

Pap boats were ingeniously designed to hold and dispense a unique food called “pap.” Pap was a versatile mixture of breadcrumbs, flour, rice, or barley, combined with liquids such as broth, milk, water, or even wine or beer. It was a staple food for infants and the elderly.

 

The distinctive features of pap boats lie in their small, shallow, boat-like shape and their long, wide lip. These features make them particularly convenient for feeding individuals who are unable to feed themselves
