U.S. Coffee Rationing in World War II

  • Summary

  • During World War II, the United States implemented coffee rationing as part of the broader war effort and conservation measures. The rationing of various goods, including coffee, was necessary to ensure that essential supplies were available for the military and to support the war economy.

    Coffee had become an integral part of American culture and daily life, with many people relying on their daily cup to start the morning. However, during the war, transporting coffee beans from coffee-producing countries became difficult due to shipping disruptions caused by enemy action. Additionally, other priorities in wartime industries limited the availability of resources needed for coffee production and distribution.
