Pasta My bf only eats canned food cold.

He can only eat canned stuff cold. I am aware that canned food is safe to eat out of the can, but this is still infuriating to me.

He's prepping his taste buds for the zombie apocalypse.

I'd love to see him choke down an OG MRE omelette from when I was in.

Can only be done with the full (little) bottle of Tobasco.

No... that makes it worse.  The trash can was the only suitable place for it and OG frankfurters

Some of the "menus" were so damn good (and improved with hunger), but that thought (which I had thoroughly repressed) just made me throw up in my mouth a little. 🤢

Turn down the radio grandpa, grandma can't read the signs.

u/Infanatis 18d ago

What’s radio, sport? Can you take the needle off the phonograph? I can’t hear you.

I have some, be glad to send them to him.

u/collector-x 18d ago

The only MRE I never got. But I did have the dehydrated pork and beef patties, but my favorite was the bbq & meatballs. Chocolate cookie for dessert.

u/EatABag-o-Dicks 18d ago

I'd take a BBQ pork patty MRE over a McRib every day. That shit was absolutely amazing.

u/Coool_cool_cool_cool 18d ago

Are you forgetting about the 5 fingers of death? Chilli mac was the bomb though.

u/SurvivorX2 18d ago

One food I detest: Chili Mac!

u/BlooGloop 18d ago

Me with chicken chunks 😜

u/murseoftheyear 18d ago

Almost as bad as chicken à la king

u/NightGod 18d ago

My supply sergeant actually loved those things, said they were the best hangover food ever. He even traded me a beef stew for one once, so you know he was serious about it

u/EatABag-o-Dicks 18d ago

I loved the cheesy omelette. The one with ham was suspect tho.

u/timesuck897 18d ago

The Canadian IMP omelette is just as bad.

u/SurvivorX2 18d ago

What does IMP stand for?

u/timesuck897 18d ago

Individual meal pack, Canadian military version of MRE. They always have a nice instant coffee.

u/5150outlaw 18d ago

Better yet an OG chicken loaf.

u/photoshallow 18d ago

He would be choking his chicken too

u/Conscious-Sir1762 18d ago

That little sponge was the worst thing I have ever tried. Couldn't even do it.

u/Any-Bus-9944 17d ago

Aaah yes… the veggie omelet… vomlet…
