What meat besides corned beef was most plentiful during the rationing times of World War 2 in the US?
Spam and some more Spam. The Americans were able to get meat easier than the Brits were able to get meat because the country was a very large meat producer. Many Americans canned their own meat and were able to get it from rural farmers. But trust me a lot of Spam was eaten by the warriors and the American populace.
