The dollar and change personal frozen pizzas you get out of the frozen food isle look better than this garbo.

"i'm a slut for biscuits" would make a great t-shirt or bumper sticker

It's not that far off from the pizza they serve at schools.

And that's sad because I remember actual cooked school lunches, like real pizza by the slice and it was good. The worst food I ever had was in a psychward, found out later googling them they also serve prison food and had numerous violations against them. I'd take the MRE over that shit.

There's like a handful of these vendors that serve places like schools, prisons, hospitals, etc. To my knowledge, they have different tiers - the cafeterias at the university I went to were probably one of the better ones (definitely better than my K-12), but they still sucked, had nearly no vegan or vegetarian options, and I remember losing a lot of weight back then. The stuff they serve at prisons and psychiatric wards must be abysmal.

I've seen smuggled pics from inside prisons where the food has bugs on it. In the psychward I remember getting served a cut of meat that was turning a blueish hue. Needless to say I always went with the grilled cheese option, at least that was fresh and cooked right.

When I was in the cadets we had many opportunities to eat mres. One of the best things was trading the bits you didn't want with other people. I ended up with so much Brussels pate.

Salmon paste was particularly unpopular, although I reckon I'd devour it these days. I'm like a dog, I'll eat anything, the more pungent the better.
