I am curious about the worst food that all of the branches are subjected to? Submarine Duty? On a Ship? Living in Tent City? what was the worst meal that you probably would not even share with your pets! ha ha ha...but at the time it was all that was provided to you so you ate it! This should get some interesting responses......Mine was MRE while in Basic Training! Still don't know if that was beef.....

Surprisingly the worst place I've been for chow other than Iraq was a USAF base. I was TDY/TDA to RAF Chicksands in England for 2 months. Their messhall sucked, their cafeteria sucked, & even their bowling alley sucked. Their Rod & Gun club had good food. Ate really well downtown too. Worst place in Iraq was Camp Fallujah during the spring 2004 siege. The messhall served what supplies of food they had on hand but that was at least understandable.

The reason that Chicksands sucked is that by the time they were delivered anything the other 2 bases, Mildenhall and lakenheath had already picked all of the good stuff! I was stationed at Lakenheath for a year. I also know this to be true because I was in Supply. Poor RAF Chicksands....that was the worst place to get stationed at!

MRE Ham and chicken loaf. If you aren't at least in your 40's you probably won't even know what I'm talking about, but trust me....you don't want to.

At JMRC in Hohenfels (the USAREUR version of NTC), MANY, MANY meals were far past the edible stage. To make them worse were the run down buildings they were served in and the non English speaking, hygiene questionable food servers.
