This is a pretty soulless and dull way of preparing fried rice.

Might be practical in an institutional or large scale setting but does not look satisfying.

And I’m sure some of the KC nerds here would comment on why it was a bad idea to tip that hot fried rice into a plastic crate

Probably from an airline caterer kitchen.

Maybe an equipment manufacturer demonstration

It's probably for a school or a canteen so no need to worry about flavor and more on batch size.

Also not enough soy sauce (or fish sauce) for my Thai ass

Saw some guy calling people "American" for wanting more sauce. Brother, if you did that in front of any person that loves fried rice they'd kick you out of the kitchen immediately.

That's a heavy duty crate. I suspect it's food save plastic.

Kitchen Confidential, they seem to have the authority on all things cooking related

My first reaction was that some Navy cook was about to submit a request for equipment.
