Why does the Metal Gear series glorify cup noodles as amazing food? Anyone sane should know how bad they are unless you're a bum.

It's the Jap equivalent of American trash food.

In terms of ration portable imperishable food for the battlefield.
It's pretty fucking amazing.

Canadian is the one that would boost my morale the most, I'd try to survive every day for that Kit Kat bar.

To the Germans get two cups of coffee? Yeah, I'll go with that...Not that you'd want to live off of the stuff on the battlefield.

It's almost like they want their troops to destroy the bathrooms with all that crap inducing stuff.

Aren't a lot of items in MGS games actual products? If so it would be odd to then describe them in a negative manner.

Look at Calorie Mate or fucking Doritos. Of course they're going to glorify that shit when it's a brand deal.

With so many disposable grunts do you really think they can be bothered to waste money on something like food? Especially since they're most likely just sending them to their deaths in masses.
>>
>>336268929
Snakes or noodles?
>>
>>336266759
That's pretty much exactly the same what we get in Sweden, I'd say its the same for Norway as well.

Those rations are really good and actually filling.

We had so many leftover that me and my brother brought back home from the obligatory conscription training (although, not anymore because swe cucks).

There's so much shit in each box its amazing, and the main courses are actually tasty.

Here's Finland though I think it's been updated since this picture. The main problem with the pictured version at least is that there's fucking nothing to eat in there if you don't have hot water available.

Dude, these rations are the fucking bomb.

>dat moist as fuck vanilla cake that lasts for decades

Best rations I've ever had, though you get fat as fuck if you eat them and you aren't in the military. There's something like 6000+ calories in every bag.

Alright here to butt in - MREs are fucking delicious.

MGS3 is set in the past so perhaps they were shit then, but here in bongistan I ain't kidding when I say MREs are great - my roommate works for the RAF and he gets bundles of them when he is deployed - super high in calories mind you but you get damn good food in them

>>336269689
The fuck is that on the left? A pair of pizza rolls?

Japanese ones are better than the ones sold over here. Well, at least for instant ramen and yakisoba. I assume the same applies to cup of noodles.

Well yeah they're meant to fill your needs for a day of fighting/marching.
>>
>>336271185
We're not saying they're disgusting.

But if you get a fuckup in your MRE and don't get the EXACT right portions, especially the gum and coffee, you will get so many calories and carbs that you become so constipated you don't shit for days.

Whereas if you do a NEET and only eat cup noodle you'll shit every few hours.

Guess what, they are not called danish in danish or denmark. It is also from Austria, and we call it Plunderstück or just Plunder.

Why the fuck would any type of food that's named after a country be called it in that country? Do you think they call hamburgers hamburgers in Hamburg?

Why is this stuff so expensive?

Literally the entire world knows the MRE instructions tell you to learn the bag up against a "rock or something" because american military cucks have an IQ in the mid 60s. Kill yourself.

Stop being a poorfag, it's still cheaper than cooking your own meal
