The US Navy has denied reports of food shortages on board two major vessels participating in the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.

Yesterday USA Today reported crew aboard the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln and amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli were not getting enough to eat.

One photo taken by a Marine showed a mostly empty lunch tray with a single scoop of shredded meat and one tortilla.

    Reminds me of Steak-umm. Ground up meat trimmings formed into a loaf that is sliced thin before cooking. Frequently used in place of higher quality cuts in cheese-steak sandwiches. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it presented in such a depressing manner, though.
