Whats y'alls favorite? Big fan of the unidentifiable grey slop personally.

[-] metaStatic@kbin.social 22 points 6 months ago

if you close your eyes it almost feels like you're eating runny snot

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 21 points 6 months ago

I think it might be soup? Except they only have a single type of serving tray and simply use that for every single meal.

Gruel is technically soup.

I'll trade you my top center and bottom left unidentifiable grey slop for your top right unidentifiable grey slop.

I'd rather have gruel. Ground up hempseed is not that much different from oatmeal or grits, and you can season it to taste good. It's also a complete protein, and hemp and marijuana are the most efficient carbon capturing plants, and they store 85% in their roots, so we could be doing something about climate change, at least slowing it down by letting these weeds grow everywhere, harvesting the roots, compressing them to a density that won't float, and dumping them into the Marianas Trench. That carbon would effectively be trapped for a few hundred million years.

The Matrix had something similar. "It's got everything the body needs." 😬

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 7 points 6 months ago

Did it? Don't quite remember that quote. Must have been that scene right after they fish him out of the gutter and have breakfast on the Nebuchadnezzar.

Honestly more effort than serving actual food at that point.

[-] LANIK2000@lemmy.world 14 points 6 months ago

Isn't that just a cream chicken soup, but disgustingly plastered on a already gross plastic food tray? The soup looks mighty fine, just the serving is questionable...

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 26 points 6 months ago

I assume so, but "mighty fine" is not the words I'd use to describe what's on the plate.

Hmm, looks like pea soup with shreds of chicken in it.

I think my country does the opposite of this, the prison food is very fatty and heavy to keep the prisoners lethargic

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

What sort of colourless beans do you guys have, eww

The United States, alleged land of the free, has the largest prison population on the planet.

[-] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

That's the free market at work. 🫡🇺🇸

Excellent movie. Hugely enjoyed all three of them as a kid even though I didn't even understand half of the jokes and most of the references made. Should probably watch them again some time to find out what I missed.

There were a bunch more pictures where I got this from, apparently all from the same facility. They all use the exact same tray, no matter what’s being served.

Since this got a lot of upvotes I’ll probably share the others over the next few days. They’re not all quite as awful as this one (it’s by far the worst) but they’re not exactly great either.

[-] TastyWheat@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

I'm in this picture and I don't like it

[-] RedStrider@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

it looks like tasty recycled plastic

[-] MonkderDritte@feddit.de 5 points 6 months ago
[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 10 points 6 months ago

More like slop, but yes, probably. Looks like a sad version of chicken soup if you ask me.

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

It's lacking for a noodle, but it doesn't look like bad soup. The presentation is obviously not amazing, but it looks better than my elementary school chicken and noodles did.
