Not sure how it got that name. When I was in the military I consumed about 6,000 calories a day. High protein and fat. My weight went from 162 to 179 eventually
i never had good quality food at any point during my career unless i paid for it. healthy wise everything they give you is straight up garbage
nacho bar.. taco bar.. waffle bar.. even the salad bar is lame. best thing youll get on a base is an egg white omlete in the morning. base food is straight up high calorie high fat tones of fried chicken and fish.. even the veggies are greasy most of the time.
they have a larger selection of deserts than healthy food options.
I got deployed to an air force base in Thailand from Diego Garcia in the 70s. Air Force chow is great. I was a Seabee in our battalion were Marines and Seals. Always in a place not fit to live in our chow was not good but eatable at best. But either you ate it or did without
oh man the dessert bar is and was always on point. now if you want to talk about top quality garbage chow hall food. the kdr chow halls in iraq and stan are the absolute shit. terrible for you food but top of the line. what i did to make it work for me, is i would get the omlettes for breakfast and then go back and get a ton of hard boiled eggs to take with me. while i was operating out of a major base for a few months, i made friends with one of the contractors that worked for kbr. he would hook me up with boneless skinless chicken, eggs, steak etc.... that wasnt the case for everyone else thoughQuote:

I was so happy to get out of there.. never thought you would miss taking a crap but... eat that food.. youll know...
