What the FUCK are they feeding our troops

Where's the burger king? I thought americans had burger king trucks and ice cream barges.
Is that a wet sock and a brick of building insulation foam? What am I even looking at?
>>65082961steamed hams
>>65082961>he doesnt eat his dry patty & carrot slice dinner with a savoury silver/grey slab of cement and/or glueman I knew you guys had bad takes on guns, but the shitty food takes kinda surprise me.live a little, okay?
palestinian propaganda
>>65082961Giving the third world access to the internet was a mistake.
>>65083022>the mistake wasn't feeding our sailors garloid slices, it was letting people see that we were feeding our sailors garloid slices
>>65083028Garloids are unironically a fantastic food source, full of vitamins and minerals and nearly pure protein, and the fact they can subsist on nearly anything. Unfortunately their appearance puts people off.
>>65082965Correction: zogslop
>>65083037>>65083028Garloids was one of the worst memes Reddit ever spawned. It was the FingerBox of the 10's.
>>65083069IT LITERALLY CAME FROM HERE YOU TURBOFAGGOT
>>65082961Gyro meat goes hard tho
>>65083076Did I stutter? I literally posted a meme edit of something a few months ago and within an hour I saw people posting it, reverse image searched and saw it had been posted on reddit for updoots. Literally within an less than an hour of me posting it in 1 (ONE) thread on /k/. This board is the same fucking thing.And I stand by what I said, garloids is just Finger Box of the 10's.
Someone found out what this is.
>>65083085For reference, here's what proper gyros looks like.
>>65083085>>65083086The concept of slices of pre-sliced kebab meat never even entered my mind. That's unholy. Some things just can't be condensed into something that fits in your freezer in single servings.
>>65083086It's gyro meat only, gyros is aGreek version of doner kebab/shwarma (but better cuz fries and pork)
>this just in, ships that haven't been resupplied for a month in a combat zone have worse food than usual>especially if said ship isn't a floating airfield>especially if the last supply procurement didn't expect an extended deployment without fresh resupplyOh no whatever will they do they might have to eat like DD crews in WW2 for a week or two.
>>65083135>a monthDude, if you're reduced to THIS after just a month, someone fucked up royally in logistics.
>>65083085I thought that it was cursed döner kebab, close enough.
>>65083143Burkes only carry about 2.5-3 weeks of fresh food and are expected to replenish every 45 days or so.>but the qualityThis isn't the 40s anymore, longer term supplies aren't all shelf stable raw ingredients and canned goods, it's frozen prepacked stuff. Modern vessels don't have shit like onboard bakeries or butcher shops. The fact they have any fresh vegetables is probably due to them having a longer shelf life and not being something cooked frequently. Go tour the Turner Joy, look at the food stores on it, and then tour a capital ship.
>>65082961That is peak Finnish cuisine you uncultured mutt. Go eat a corn syrup burger or something.
>i am winning the internet culture war thread
>>65083169>Modern vessels don't have shit like onboard bakeriesHon hon hon
>>65083169Quantity, quality and even fucking portion size shown here is garbage. Like FFS, when your food makes an MRE look like the superior option and you're still trying to defend it, you'Re coping hard.
>>65082961They're likely rationing until they can get a resupply. Better to eat something than nothing. Not really sure how they'd let it get this bad though.Keep in mind that the framing of this image is usually with rhetoric of a deeply unpopular war, so it makes sense to popularize an image showing a weakened military that needs to come home and rest. Technically this is just a single image that's cherry-picked out of context. What is everyone else eating? Is this the tray of someone who just wasn't hungry for some reason? Such figures would be of tactical advantage to the enemy, so it's unlikely that we'll know for now.
>>65083204It's a single image from a random trooper with no context
>>65082961Goy slop
>>65083226I think it's not just the unpopularity, it's the general perception that this was started on a whim and with little of the preparation or planning required to sustain it.Who knows about the actual context, but it certainly fits the perception.
>Out of context image with rampant speculationIRGC's strongest weapon on display here.
>>65083204ship galleys are like a cafeteria line, you pick an entree and whatever sides you wantthe faggot in this photo picked a burger and just didn't grab a bunif there was a bun and some ketchup on it it would look like a totally normal lunch with a random slice of over processed gyro meat next to it
>protein, protein and some carrotStarting to understand why the shitters are getting clogged.
>>65083195that's clearly a picture of the main magazine
>>65083232>>65083240Lay off the copium pipe already, it's getting sad.
>>65083281>No you cant pick the simple excuse, believe my complex conspiracy instead!
>>65083285Good job admitting it's a shitty excuse.
>>65083287Yeah your excuse is shitty huh.
>>65083082>is fucking wrong>doubles down Fascinating.
>>65082961>a picture >from ships under emcon >thirdies genuinely believe thisMeanwhile
>>65083169>2.5-3 weeks of fresh foodWhich, to be fair, is more than enough.A Burkes can sail about 6000 km in 1 week. Which is more than enough to get in touch with a US base.And that's assuming they aren't resupplied at sea from said base.
The worst part of this is that it wouldn't take much to make a good stew. It's not like the ship is ever going to run out of onions, potatoes and stock to go with the carrot and mystery meat.>>65083313Subs manage to give decent meals and the enlisted men will have all grown up in families making do with what they have so there's no excuse here. The cooks have fucked up here.
>>65082961Maybe it's low residue food? So you shit less? Typically, mess hall food is crude but decent. Like the cooks are in a rush but also know they've got to eat whatever they cook.
>>65083334Subs put in extra effort because it's the only source of morale.
>>65083334I'd think subs set out with an inventory adapted to long deployments without resupply and limited prep space, i.e. some fresh stuff and then a whole bunch of glorified frozen TV dinners.Surface vessels get resupplied every 1-2 weeks or even more often, so they're gonna carry perishables and then after a while without "standard" resupply they're gonna have to fall back on an assortment of increasingly less appetizing long shelf life stuff like that dry ass patty and shoe sole looking gyros slice.
>>65083355A lot of the shit is frozen but they do put some effort into cooking it.
>>65082961Zogslop for the Zogbots, Grey meat for the gay boys.
>>65082961Why do they bother to peel the carrots? Isn't that a huge waste of nutrition?
>>65082961Why not just stack mountains of chili mac pouches?
>>65083171>eat a corn syrup burger or something.Where IS THIS???
>>65083370>they do put some effort into cooking it.Yes, they really do. https://youtu.be/Ag8kbTEU2yg?si=eOXTSYYkzO-LB3--
>>65083390Ease of processing. Makes it easier for a machine to chop them into easy-to-cook chunks.
>>65083390I think they use the skins for carrot cake or something. Navy ships are notorious for reusing. Hotdog buns turn into garlic bread the next day kind of stuff.
>>65083103Gyros was invented in the US. Greek sandwiches are called Souvlaki.
Can't believe congress banned C-Rations baka
Me da said, in the first war o' europe, they all bitched of the food. Common grunt bitch it is, an proper as they do get shat upon a platter. We march, err row as it were, upon our stomachs. But truffuly we's been watchin re-actor dials all the night. Pop in th 'ead iff'n a shit's on the forecast mebbe.But der food's alwus bin a rottah.
>>65083422It was invented in Greece, but was called doner kalamaki until the nationalists decided to change the name because the word doner is turkish.
>>65083431*doner souvlaki I mean
>>65082961Mmm, smashed bison burger and buffalo tougue filet with baby carrots! Just close your eyes and imagine...
>>65083416>Hotdog buns turn into garlic bread the next day kind of stuff.Wednesday is meatball sub night and Thursday is spaghetti with meat sauce night.
>>65083446But my brother in Christ, I also do this at home.
>>65083313It's from the USA Today article you double nigger.https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2026/04/16/iran-war-mail-packages-middle-east/89609308007/
>>65083276le keque
>>65083012Where's the fries?
>>65083086nah bruh, the best gyros look like a menstruation pad
>>65083449>Having to ration food>Being cut off from all mail and care packagesIgnoring the politics of the war, I'm actually curious what morale is like now just based on that.
>>65083483I'd be more worried if the grunts weren't griping about the food.
>>65082961In poor dystopian ameriKKKa, you no have even salt...pepper...condimeniums like catsup....why so depressing?
I'm gonna put on the tin foil hat and say that the people defending this nonsense are false flaggers trying to make Americans look as stupid as Russians did when they were still trying to defend their 3 day special operation.
>>65083567It's comforting to think that the vatnik is a purely Russian phenomenon but the truth is that the lower classes are basically the same everywhere you go.
Still trying to wrap my head around how this thread is even remotely /k/ related.Good Job, Mods.
>>65083449>usa today Literally leftist propaganda.
>>65083567>>65083578>the IRGC is actually winning somehow
>>65083567West has fallen, soldiers arent eating lobster...
>>65083276TRVKE incoming: All French armor piercing munitions are made from stale baguettes, they're just that hard.>inb4 all American ones are made from hardtack
>>65083637Well you see Iran caved about opening the strait and now everyone has to have a melty trying to salvage the egos they tied to this war
>>65083708>armor piercing, french stick, dried, stale
>>65083665Not those anons, but I will reiterate what I have said many times>The entire population of Iran isn't worth a single American fingernailWe can kill every Iranian who ever lived and shit on their graves and I won't give a single shit or fuck. But if we lose a single American life, it is a disaster, because a single American is worth more than the entire population of the turd world shithole of Iran.An F-15 probably costs more than what the Ayatollah has in personal wealth (this statement is unconfirmed, but you get the gist, they're poor as shit browns). Losing a single F-15 means we've lost the entire GDP of Tehran in a single shootdown.Think about what this means. If an Iranian manages to kill a single American, he's managed to achieve the equivalent of a 93,000,000:1 K/D ratio. And we've lost double digits in American lives. By destroying a single F-15 or A-10, the Iranians have managed to destroy the equivalent of some countries' economies for a year.I'm not the only person who thinks this way. The Iranians do too. Look at how much they boast about a single destroyed aircraft, or a single dead ZOGbot. It doesn't matter that there is barely even a government or military leadership left in Iran because every leader who appears or gets promoted to leader is airstriked in a week. When they managed to kill a few American grunts, they celebrated for weeks, because to them, it was the equivalent of killing off an entire country.This is also a perception held by the US public. No one cried over the Cubans we killed to capture Maduro, because we took no losses. We had a 50:0 K/D, AND we nabbed their president. We took minimal equipment losses, if at all.But in Iran, we've actually taken losses. It doesn't matter that the IRGC leadership has been wiped out repeatedly, or that we have a 5000:13 K/D ratio. Every American is worth more than the entire population of Iran of 93 million people. So it's not 5000:13, it's 5000:1,209,000,000.
>>65083665>acknowledging reality of where we need to improve is the same thing as supporting the enemy!You absolute fucking turdie brownoid retard. It's the fucking polar opposite: strong countries and good militaries do not engage in chest thumping bullshit and pretend they're perfect that the military can never be wrong or have anything shitty about it. Public attention and criticism is the only way to avoid ever intensifying rot, it's key to having actual success.
>>65083741They haven't resupplied in a bit retard.>>65083712its all so tiresome
>>65083447It's not supposed to be a bad thing. Not until you're messing around with fish.
It was Friday in Japan, which means their sailors were getting curry.
>>65083708it's commonly known, as baguette jousting accidents are part of the average french childhood
>>65082961its safe to assume posts like these are either completely disingenuous or taken out of context, because they usually are
>>65083783Japanese curry is fucking nasty. It's flavorless mush.
>>65083859You've never had a good one then.Protip: dumping a brick of Golden Curry roux into a pot with bits of meat and diced vegetables is no more "Japanese curry" than pouring water over a brick of instant ramen is "Japanese ramen"
