Fanny, английский
The semi-official name attached to a small round “mess kettle” of about eight pints (41?2 liters) capacity issued to british seamen. it had a grisly origin. in april 1867 a nine-year-old girl named frances (fanny) adams was murdered. her killer cut the body into small pieces, and some of these were rumored to have been found in nearby royal clarence victualing yard. this was almost exactly at the time that victualing yards began to issue cans of corned mutton to the fleet and, inevitably, the meat was nicknamed fanny adams. sailors found the opened cans (which resembled small paint pots) useful for carrying food and the name carried over to the official issue which appeared later.
