Anybody know if the Navy still ruins every meal with rice or not? Back in the 1970’s the Mess Specialist Chiefs were mostly Filipino especially on carriers. Rice for lunch and rice for supper usually mixed in with the main dish. Naturally they ordered plenty of rice no matter what. We never ran out I kid you not. If you said no rice they looked at you like you were an uncivilized mad man. It cured me of ever wanting another meal with rice in it. Give me beans instead anything but rice.

I don't know. I was on subs...we ate whatever we wanted. Steak and lobster each Friday too.
