Makes me think of Koreans who travel with boxes and boxes of Shin Ramyeon and expats who can't handle gochujang

I wonder if Dutch food could really be much worse than vegemite or ketchup on meat pies.

Ask any army chef - squaddies are always complaining about the food - most of the morons are used to beans on toast back in the slums whence they came and they join the army and have top rate food cooked for them professionally and all they can do is WHINGE! Every army is the same - probably the cloggies are whinging about the food also though there is nothing they can do about it.

Though US army chefs are pretty high calibre - MREs are disgusting - food in the field isn't doesn't taste nice - I know there are a few ex army chefs knocking around on here who can weigh in with their opinion...

I actually tried a couple of MREs (just out of curiosity..the military surplus store had em and they weren't all that cheap).

I thought they weren't bad.

Then again, I never minded school cafeteria food either.

Bottom line...women in my family can't cook!

My friend is a navy chef. What he was cooking up on the ship didn't sound amazing or anything, but it didn't sound bad either. Then again, they use outside contractors for those bases in Baghdad and the food apparently is amazing - and extremely expensive and at the taxpayer's expense, of course.

My great uncle was a cook in the New Zealand army. His recipe for pea soup was: 18 gallons of water and one pea. If it's too strong, take out the pea.

An Australian can eat anything on the face of the earth provided he has two slices of bread and a bottle of tomato sauce.
