The answer
CROCK
What crock means
A pot or container made of ceramic or earthenware, traditionally used for cooking or storing food.
Where the word comes from
From Middle English *crokke*, borrowed from Old Norse *krukka*, meaning a pot or earthenware vessel. The Norse word likely came from Proto-Germanic *krukkōn*, related to similar words for clay pots across Germanic languages. The sense of "nonsense" or "lies" developed later in American English, possibly from the idea of false or worthless contents in a cracked pot.
