These seem totally inadequate. According to the Department of Agriculture, a complete meal is supposed to be "a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, a corn tortilla and... one other thing".

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

If it makes you feel better, Trump, Hegseth, and the billionaires are eating great.
These fuckers are partying like Gatsby
Quick, send the fastest transport with a door dash lady with a McDonald's happy meal package for photo op with the troops.
That'll do it.
IDK if it's a "food shortage" but it's a fresh food shortage. The obvious similarity between ingredients is they are things that can be frozen.
Is that a shoe sole?
Can't be blamed for putting boots on the ground if you made them eat all the boots first
Reminder to the crews of those ships: matresses are flammable.
Can't the US even supply its own ships anymore? Logistics was always America's strongest point, and now that's gone too.
Another meal was a ground meat patty, an unidentified piece of meat and some sliced carrots. (Supplied)
I want people to know that I have yet to find someone who has identified the "unidentified piece of meat" that looks like a deflated meat balloon.
Looks kind of like one of the slices of meat that comes in the Aldi brand Gyro sandwich kit, but less appealing 
Someone suggested its a steakum but if that's the case its a weird mil-spec one because it doesn't look like the pictures.
It's TrumpKum
That means there are definitely food shortages. This current US regime works in opposite land so reverse everything they say to get closer to reality.
