Before United States military members train for combat, they have to fuel up.
We traveled the country to find out how the US military feeds service members, from mobile field kitchens to military academy dining halls. We also asked a New Zealand Army soldier to review US military MREs (Meals, Ready-to-Eat).

The best food in the Navy is on a submarine (got to try it once when my uncles sub was in drydock in Scotland). Best food in the Corps, 4th Battalion Chow Hall on Parris Island. Been to a couple of Army DFAC's and they are "meh", but their breakfasts are top notch. You can get your eggs anyway you want, and omelets to order, every type of breakfast potato and meat. Never been to an Air Force hall, but considering how spoilt they are, I would expect they'd have steak and lobster dinners every evening. I get just a bit salty about the AF.

The CO pulled my records then told the drill Sgt. that I was to be the first in the mess hall and to let me eat until I was done. The first day the drill sgt. then realized how much I ate and realized that he was starving me. I went through the same crap in AIT.

Tbh. One of my favorite memories of my time in the Army as a 68W was the food and living in open bays. Never before was I able to enjoy such a variety of food before I enlisted and I loved every meal. Slagel for our three hots and we'd work out at the gym by METC DFAC in our freetime. During our cycle we switched to METC DFAC. Rocco's was top tier and METC took silver, but Slagel definitely has a soft spot in my heart to this day. I learned quick to get in good w/ the cooks and it paid it off in the form of being able to raid the DFAC for as much of dinner (fried chicken w/ greens) as myself and a few of the other medics could carry. ☺️ Military cooks will always have my absolute respect because, while everyone loved us Whiskeys, the cooks IMO were the underappreciated MOSs. Besides the medics, the only guys who loved them were the salty af former combat arms guys/anyone who deployed during the Invasion of Iraq/The Surge days. For all the cooks past and present. You have my undying love and respect. 🤙

This is foreign to me. All I remember back in the 60's is when I sat down to eat we were called to attention and ordered to clean up and throw our food away. Not one bite at the table. Only a few bites on the way to the trash. We would get in trouble throwing food away until we learned.

The base has changed a lot since I was there in 1992, but I'll admit that the food was outstanding. While training there, I had my first 'breakfast taco' and could not get enough of them.

I was a USAF Reservist back in the early 1980's. I swear that's the same spaghetti there at the 1:05:23 point ! Really good spaghetti, always loved it. Actually, the Air Force always had really good food. Even at Lackland (BT)..... Surprisingly good. The funny part was that you had to drink two small glasses of water before you could sit down at every meal. Pretty much a way to keep everyone at least somewhat hydrated, and it was a bit hot there in July/August. GREAT times, though. Loved it. 40 years ago here next month. Sad. Wish I could teleport back.

Thanks for your service. The trainee cooking looks like something id be interested in doing as a civilian. I like to cook and bake. The Skippy tradition is stupid. No one wants to be messed up with peanut butter. In hs i went 1 or 2 times to west point for dancers with my friends girl scout troop.

And I thought I cooked a lot, as I do all the cooking and grocery shopping for my family. Hardly. Kudos to these champion cooks & kitchen crew!

46:00 Lieberkäsä. I died when i heard that one. Ahhh, this is great. 🤣 For those who want to know. It roughly translates to Livercheese. But it has no liver in it. The word "Leber" in this context is a relic from old german and means Laib which translates to loaf. And Käse is in this context an old bavarian designation for an edible mass. So in general it means "A loaf of an edible meaty mass". It is very delicous in a bun with some sweet mustard on it. I love it.

@eriktroske6405 Ай бұрын

It’s not the most gourmet dish, but I always enjoyed it during my time in Bavaria. German food in general is seriously underrated here
