Probably so the soldiers could make whatever they were eating a little more palatable.
You can't shut down American ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit.
Just becasue there was a war going on, doesn't mean businesses didn't start or pop up and the ones already in existence, keep moving forward... And if you dumb ass people bothered to look and research, you would see a lot of businesses start that way... During times of turmoil...
LOL
It was created for the elites silly people.
You don't think regular people had A1 back in the day do you?
Not everyone was fighting the civil war. Some people were trying to stay out of it.
It was created in Britain in 1831 by some upper crust chef. It was patented in 1862 in Britain. It didn't make it to the States until 1895, Canada in 1930.
It's now distributed by Kraft Foods, the proud makers of Velveeta, America's tasty, beloved substitute for cheese. Oddly enough, A.1. is hardly sold in Great Britain anymore.

Britain doesn't need it anymore with that nasty meat pudding stuff that they eat. They don't know what a steak looks like anymore.
It is mainly used in golden corrals and by people that buy the cheapest cuts of meat. Prime beef is the best, choice is ok and the rest goes to GC and value priced food stores.
Britain still has a bunch of steak sauces for sale in groceries, just not A1. The ones they do have are much the same flavor, but much thicker. There's one that I've bought in Cambridge at the Dollar store that's really tasty and has much more body.
HP Sauce. Grew up on it. A1 has a similar taste but it’s runny.
