I have to come clean now....

My name is SMXJ and I can't live without it. To answer your question cad. Not any more. I developed a lactose intolerance and can't eat cheese. If I could though it would be on. I look at food like fuel. If it gets the job done who am I to complain?

i would love to join the binge, but with trying to get debt free before i get back to the states my money is too thin, thus i am stuck with the wonderful army "food" that costs me nothing to eat. but the one thing i remember being the best way to eat ramon IMO is cook it with the flavor packet, then drain the water into a cup drink the broth and eat the cooked noodles by them selves. thats just me though, its a good way not to waste anything and acts as a good beverage when you cant afford anything to drink other than water.....damn i miss NADC, lmao.

Be glad you missed "C" rations ... the containers it came in tasted better than the food .. not the cans, the cases.

To me, Meals Rejected by Ethiopians (AKA: MRE's) were like Delmonico's in St Louis by comparison.

honestly there are some days i would take MRE's over the chow hall, i actually like most of the MRE's

Army cooks:
can take a T-bone steak and turn it into asphalt
turn coffee into drain cleaner / paint remover
chicken into a wrestling champ
mashed potatoes into nuke weapon rated concrete
green beans into sewer pipe
peas into mini bowling balls (or armor piercing grapeshot for 8" howitzers)
bacon into sndblasting media
eggs into pothole filler
and biscuits into thick manhole covers

but they'll never mess up a hand of poker.

Why are Navy cooks so great?

Think about the long, wet walk home if they burn the roast . . . . . .
