Everytime I see one of those it reminds me of the scene in the "The Longest Day". Step it up Move it out!. "What to you expect me to do with with this?" I don't care what you do with it!, Mack! LOL!! Or "The Dirty Dozen". I step in it before but I never thought I would be eating It!!
As a side note: I took my wife to breakfast yesterday and I usually order, "Sausage Gravy on Toast" or SOS for the follow veterans. It was sad to discover it was no longer on the menu! I guess a lot of older veterans are dying off and the younger generations are into the rabbit food. The passing of an era!
Has anyone actually enjoyed the food that arrived in these containers? I ask because back in the 1970's I received my school dinners, for about 8 years, out of very similar aluminium containers because the food was prepared off site and it was not a very good experience.
