Uh I mean i cook food for a living and Id rather do that than get shot at in the mud, I wouldn’t say it’s “easy” but “easier than war”? Sure unless you’re also getting shot at while you cook
At my job we have two huge steam kettles that can cook 20Ib of dry pasta at once (well, more if we had a bigger colander but also that’s about the limit of my strength to carry) in one while the other is full of ice to cool it down. I can cook enough pasta to feed like 300-400 in an hour, easily, while doing other stuff
If ALL HE DID was pasta then I imagine he was making pasta for 3000+ per day
Can’t believe they didn’t try to shake it up a bit like idk do some sesame linguini one day or like a cajun chicken pasta with a cream sauce another day but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised I cook better food with more variety for college students than sailors
With the quality of food I’m imagining honestly I’m surprised they didn’t just buy canned meat sauce
Im good either way no pressure if you forget <3 we use 6Ib cans of canned sauce as a base but they usually put that out by itself as marinara for the plain pasta and add meat and other things for stuff like baked ziti or spaghetti

well there are cooks IN the army
I know someone who was a naval cook. He spent his entire enlistment making spaghetti
Half the military cooks now are contractors, so you don’t even have to wear fatigues to spend four years on a military base making spaghetti anymore.
But he did it on a boat so thats totally different.
I would fucking hate just making spaghetti

I think he also made the sauce, or at least i assume so. But according to him he made spaghetti every day for his entire enlistment
Amerikkkan Soldiers have the dietary palate of children (just assuming here that they’re amerikkkan)

I’ll ask him if they used a canned sauce next time I talk to him. Do you want an update on it?

I think itd still be easier cooking in the army but only as long as you’re not also getting shot at
Getting shot at while cooking would probably be more difficult than shooting back though i agree
