Yeah, it's all super freeze-dried food with mostly vegetarian bases so it stays longer (the expiration date on it is 2035, but the maker says if given the ideal conditions of darkness, dryness and relative cold it could last for 40 years). NPR did a review of the stuff this morning, it sounds pretty awful, but I guess it's better than starving to death or trying to grow food in the Earth that we have poisoned.

That seems like an incredibly tiny amount of water, not enough to even dissolve all of the powder. chitoryu12 posted:With these rations, I normally try to eat only the contents of the ration (plus water). I go under the assumption that you're going to be eating this by itself in the field anyway, not necessarily having the chance to mix your food together with stuff you purchased or stole to make a meal (though I did some reading on Serbian rations and apparently it was common for everyone to pool their stuff together to make a group meal). chitoryu12 posted:It definitely didn't taste like it. It was fruity and gritty.

Magic Hate Ball posted:Yeah, basically. Our school was right on the border between the wealthy part of town and the dumpy part of town, which I lived in, so half the students relied on free or subsidized lunches and the other half would either go off-campus in their fancyass cars (there was nothing within walking distance, just suburb) or buy from the pricey on-campus vendors. Since the school lunches were brought in on a big truck from a central distributor with a primary interest in cutting corners, all the poor kids ate unfulfilling, lovely meals like this: The variances across public school lunches in the U.S. are ridiculous. For every goon who ate the above "meal" daily, there's another whose worst lunch experience was the day the soda fountain broke down and the fries they got from the Burger King in their cafeteria were a little soggy. I remember my first dinner at the dining hall my freshman year of college. I lost my marbles. "Eggplant parmesan? Baked lemon pepper chicken? Salad? With several different types of fresh greens? Mashed potatoes that didn't come out of a box? My choice of pop, three different fruit juices, or skim, 2%, or whole milk? Holy poo poo!" My roommate went to one of the rich high schools. He sighed and said, "Yeah, the choices kind of suck here."

Don't worry, I heated all the food. I'm not tough enough to try and consume any of it cold, especially not with all the fat. What you're looking at on the plates is the cooked appearance, including the fat melting off.

I like how all three(?) foods are somehow invading each other's personal space. Like its a Battle Royal type situation on the plate and only one can be saved from Boyfriend.

I'm currently viewing the post on another computer and everything is fine. I'm thinking it's your phone that's the problem. Either that or your phone rightly doesn't want to look at the pictures either.

In Americas Midwest you can buy skim, 1%, 2%, and whole milk. In school we were offered 2% every day, chocolate flavored milk was considered a reward and offered once a week.

This is pretty close to my experience. At school we could get skim (pink), 2% (blue), or chocolate on Fridays only (brown). For years little child me drank the 2% because boys who drank the pink cartons got made fun of.  I eventually said gently caress that though and remain a skim man to this day.

I don't really understand the concept of school lunches as they are not a thing in Canada. Did you have to pay for them or is it government funded? We either brought a lunch or we were hosed. A government-funded school food program sounds like it would be a good idea.

We either brought a lunch or we were hosed. A government-funded school food program sounds like it would be a good idea. It used to be subsidized in part or in whole, depending on family income. Breakfast programs were introduced specifically to help low income children get enough to eat before starting school, I hope they're still funded.
