he National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023 authorizes taxpayer funds for the U.S. Department of Defense to research and develop plant-based proteins for members of the military.
The congressional legislation, H.R. 7900, establishes a “Pilot Program on Research and Development of Plant-based Protein for the Navy.”
The bill stipulates that by March 1st, 2023, the Secretary of the Navy “shall establish and carry out a pilot program to offer plant-based protein options at forward operating bases for consumption by members of the Navy.” Plant-based protein options are defined as “edible vegan or vegetarian meat alternative products made using plant and other non-livestock-based proteins,” according to the bill.
At least two naval facilities will be made to participate in the pilot program and “prioritize facilities where livestock-based protein options may be costly to obtain or store.”

No Bugs. Read my lips.
i’m fairly certain they’re already pushing cloned meat.
depending how close these new ‘burgers’ are the real thing, they may just start pushing them without telling anyone
They'll eat what they're told to eat.
I agree.
Also, I wouldn’t be surprised if fast food restaurants are mixing fake meat with real meat and calling it ‘filler’.
I’ve always enjoyed the Navy Galley’s for mess in past years, but these last few years the only thing real good is their salad bars. Now with this, I’ll skip it. I have self control in what I put in my body and at 76 I don’t want government to force plant food, anothe Government knows best. No wonder recruitment is wayyyyyy down....
That should improve moral. “Come and get it boys. Tofu. Again.”
Just further proof the democrats absolutely hate everything about this country. Except being able to make money off it.
They know libtards will run out to sign up and eat crap 🤪
Now they can do an ad with a sailor pimping fake animal carcass sandwiches to a minority guy while saying, “I’m a sailor and if I like it...”
By the time I got to Germany, I had 13 years in the Air Force. I was used to decent food at USAF facilities. I ate a few times at the Army dining hall in Germany. It was about the worst food I ever tasted. I thought, so this is how the Army treats their people. I never tried another Army dining hall.
Retired USAF here too, 1988. One tour in Vietnam. That was plenty for me. 👍
Yes once they start make it with actual shit and shingles
With idiot socialists in charge, I find it difficult to hope we win military encounters. I mean they have culled out all good conservative people mostly from all ranks. So am I going to cry for the socialist woketards left in the service? The same ones who’d have no qualms following an order to shoot me?
Nope. I’d only feel bad for the country. Not the woke idiots left following pedo joe’s and tranny rachel and all the other alphabet weirdos.
The Navy is going to have to rely on the Army to provide them with grass clippings to make their fake steaks and burgers.
exactly
we really need to take the country back from people who don’t mind sh*tting on it and its people
We can destroy the army and other branches and still be okay as long as we have the navy but we can’t afford to **** up the navy.
Four SEA tours, first 1967 NKP, 56 Air Commando. Retired 86
Heh
“Other non-livestock-based proteins” means “crickets and worse”.
John Wayne is out.
Liberace is in.
