Crock (dishware)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Crock is a fired clay (or earthenware) container sometimes used for food, and sometimes used for chemicals. It is perhaps most commonly used as part of the term crock-pot.
According to the Jargon File the use of the word crock for containers is connected to engineering jargon (see Crock) by the American scatologism "crock of shit" for extreme forms of what would otherwise be called bullshit.
