Back in my army days I was eating out of my mess kit one day. A dog wandered over, took a sniff and walked away.

Should have joined the Navy!

Isn’t that cruel and unusual punishment?

should try school dinners in the 1980’s UK education system :-/

Try eating college food in the 1980s from a food supplier known as SAGA….which could’ve been interpreted as Soviet Attempt (to) Gag America. Genuine tongue depressant food.

I was in high school until’83 and the food there was terrible, but then I was in the Navy and the food there was so gross

A few of you will know what this means…

(Old song) “Oh the Nave gets the gravy, but the Army gets the beans beans beans beans….”

‘The food in the Army they say is mighty fine, but a biscuit rolled off the table & killed a pal of mine…’ old song lamenting Army life…must’ve been WW2 era.

During the Vietnam war on one liked the cheese spread they put in the rations. Soldiers would just toss the cans unopened into the jungle. The vietcong were well known for reusing anything and everything our soldiers would throw away, but not even they would touch those cans of cheese spread.
