Not really .. the plan came out of the WH (at VJ’s insistence after a protracted battle with her handlers in Iran) to disrupt the Trump vs Cruz battles on FR by making those with a modicum of military experience literally die laughing and so swing the election to Bernie ... there were no vegetables involved - you are likely mixing this up with the US Navy’s purchase of $1.5 Billion in bio-fuel to power its conventional ships - maybe made with onions?
