Terminal Lance #539 “Chow Hall Nightmares”
March 15, 2019
There’s terrible things going on in chow halls across the Marine Corps. Well, I don’t actually know this, I’m just assuming so because the food is often so bad that it must mean something has gone terribly wrong. Of course, bad food and the military go together like moldy peas and carrots. Hell, the DOD spends $22 million a year on lobster tails and the food still sucks.
Look, I know the pentagon wastes a lot of money, but headlines like this are just going to make chow hall food even worse.

Not even Gordon Ramsay himself could save the hell that is a Marine Corps chow hall.
I’ve heard horrific rumors of Marines coming across boxes of meat and produce that state things like “FOR MILITARY AND PRISON CONSUMPTION ONLY,” which I believe simply on the basis of the food being so generally awful. There’s only so much even the most talented, bored, gold-ranked chow hall Lance Corporal can do with with what he’s given.
Still, I have to give credit where it’s due, weekend breakfast at the chow hall is among the best in the business. I’d pay top dollar for one of those glorious Sunday morning omelets in the civilian world.
Chow hall omelets are still the best omelets I've ever had https://t.co/zKIz1gtGUy
