It still all comes from the DLA. (Defence Logistics Agency) I found that the main difference with Air Force DFACs was in the optionals -- the food was pretty similar to Army. USAF had table service, an ala carte menu, a decent midnight menu and always had a SOLID dessert and salad offering. But in US training bases the food is usually contracted out and they use Sysco or similar products. On Fort Gordon there was ONE DFAC that was military run with DLA provisions, and the rest were civilian run for trainees. There were two permanent units on training side that were allowed to use training DFACs, the Band was the other one. :D

That's really interesting. As an example in the Swiss army, the budget per person is always the same regardless of where you're at, an equivalent of 10$ per day. The main difference you will find is if you're lucky with your cooks or not. But usually it's yummy and balanced. Our biggest army facitily in Thun is roughly a third of the size. And I do have to admit the food served is quite different. We rarely had fried food, common was pasta with some kind of sauce with meat in it. Stews are quite popular too. Otherwise potato based stuff was served very often, things like Rösti (preboiled, grated and fried potatoes) or pan fried. What I didn't quite get was the way the meals were served. Wouldn't it be more efficient if it would be organized like a canteen with a salad bar? Also with a facility this size I'd have expected a LOT more cooks. Looking at my past experience it was roughly one person in the kitchen per 50 soldiers. This repetition course I'll spend in the mountains and we're 400 people with 7 cooks. But to be fair, they are cheaper to pay than professionals because like I, they are conscrips too.

It allows them to feed the whole student body in a really short time, and more importantly instills comradery in that small group of cadets at each table.

The military does use a lot of canned and frozen food -- but not that much pre-cooked or pre-prepared.

That's incredible. I have a lot of respect for these people. They're very dedicated and do a good job.

You need industry experts to build the whole thing from ground zero, all just to save costs? the cost to just start would be far more expensive. Also, the US already has a very good and cheap existing infrastructure network for raw materials. in short, in the long run you are right that it would be cheaper. but for how long? how long until it saves money til it pays back the initial investment? and what if the us military decides to downsize? the complicated production process of raw material can't just downsize with it like you would dismiss people and dismantle equipment. dealing with responsibilities in fast reforms work out a lot better when given to private companies for some of these things. raw material is just a whole different game and a much bigger industry that is incomparably complex compared to just cooking.

Just to explain, not excuse: it's cheaper to buy a common thing than an uncommon thing. For example, they opened tons of small bags of frozen veggies; but for the factory the packages those vegetables, it would be really expensive to stop the processing line, increase the volumes on each machine, order the different sized bags, keep track of which boxes were full of the 2 lbs bags vs the 20 lbs, and making sure they get shipped correctly, etc. It's just a lot more to do logistically. And if only one customer buys that different product, then that customer will have to eat the entire cost of those changes. And the customers usually choose just to buy the thing that's already available. Granted, for an operation this size, it probably wouldn't be super difficult to justify the cost. But just as a general rule, changing anything at the single, centralized processing facility will cost A TON of money, which you probably wouldn't be able to amortize quickly, because there aren't many customers.

I can’t imagine they even think about the amount they’re cooking they just keep cooking

Army Cook here…this is pretty standard for a large garrison setting. We have a similar, if not better garrison kitchen set up here in Indiana at Camp Atterbury. . . It’s when you go to the field, that’s when things get interesting lol

The heroes here where the cooks & kitchen staff💯👏🏼👏🏼

I guess they have to work with what they have, but all those pre-made stuff definitely does not look healthy. I'm grateful for living in a place with better food. 🙏🏻

These guys are doing gods work.. I would never be able to work in an environment like this let alone do it at 3 am.. mad respect to these guys!

IF YOU HURT MY FOOD THEN YOU HURT MY PRIDE. I CANT LET GO I WONT LET IT SLIDE

How is reheating frozen stuff now creating and cooking? Airforce always does have the better DFACs though...

I've been watching this series where BI is showing the food served at different military academies. By far, air force has the best food. 30 seconds in the video, I'm seeing steak and lobstar where as other academies are serving frozen chicken breast and processed meat, sausage etc.

A chef friend got a job on a marine base and was sent to Las Vegas to learn catering for 2 weeks. Thats quality training. I remember he needed some help with service for an event and if I knew 200 people interested. They already had 500 staff cooks etc ready but needed another 200.

They admit that the food quality has gone way down due to understaffing. Seems like they are honestly serving our troops a bunch of crap with about as many cooks as an average mcdonalds for thousands of people. I don't think a cadet would ever consider boil-in-bag eggs a "great opportunity" but maybe that executive chef likes crap food.

The bagged eggs are unfortunately standard across the branches from what I've seen and experienced I like to smother mine in salt and pepper

Correction: How The Air Force Academy Heats Up 10,000 Pre-Made Meals A Day For 4,000 Cadets

In the military i was working part time in the office part time on the shooting range. In my office work i had to plan the holidays for the cooks and transport teams in my military base. Sometimes it was quit difficult. But i ever had a good access to the canteen

I love this. Those cooks are so hard working.

if a meal could say thank you for nothing, thats what i would cook.

god bless the workers!

Man, I love these videos.

Cracker Jacks mentioned at the end, MY FAVORITE, YES!!!
