    Worst chow hall?

    Timberwolf started a good idea. My worst experience was a buddies ship, can't remember the name but it was an LST. Food was horrible, and the guys on ship actually thought it was decent, LOL.

    Fob Mchenry, Al Haweja. I don't remember the terminology, but it's the frozen rations that get reheated by the army nerd-cooks. I lost a lot of weight working around Al Haweja thanks to that chow hall.

      I just call all bad food "Haggis", as in the stuffed intestine Scottish dish.

        we were playing OPFOR for 1st and 2nd bde 4th ID down in Hood and they had us eating at this "chow hall" that was seriously the worst crap ever. i'd gladly eat MRE's over that crap... especially the cold weather MRE's... take longer to prepare but good stuff nonetheless.

          USS Antietam CG-54. The food got so bad on deployment that the Captain ordered an immediate menu review and started eating with the crew to insure that the enlisted weren't getting screwed over. Foreign nationals and other sailors that were attached to or just ate on board the ship during MIO in the Gulf even commented how bad the food was. Lets just say that we all learned many different ways to eat PB&J. I don't think I've had a PB&J sandwich since that deployment, lol. By the way, roast beef isn't supposed to have a green tinge to it right?, (no joke I have a picture somewhere).

                Naw man. The food isn't nearly as bad as the water . . . I swear the local YMCA has less chlorine in the pool than Camp Roberts puts in the water Bleaches your teeth in a couple of days

                  Camp McGregor, NM. That DFAC was closed for a loooong time until the Army stuck us sailors way out there by the prison...

                    Most ships, though I hear that food on submarines is quite good.

                      Thank your neighbor and fellow gun owners for passing Prop 63. For that gun control is a winning legislative agenda.

                          Camp Roberts. Hands down.

                          If you fed that food to a dog, he would most likely take one bite then lick his butt for a half an hour just to get the taste out of his mouth.

                          Not to mention the place is run by a cross-eyed gremlin and a very large he-she...

                            Not counting T-Rats out in the field or deployment, I would have to give it up for the Camp Roberts chow hall.
