text: what is the food like on a navy ship?   on canadian ships, we are very, very well fed.    for one thing, our ships only have one galley for the captain, the wardroom, the chiefs and po's and the junior ranks.  so quality is really on the high side of things.  as for quantity, we can't complain.  0300 and 0700 breakfasts, 1000 soup, lunch, dinner, late meal around midnight, always toast, cereals, fresh fruit and very often leftovers available round the clock, and more kinds of condiments than we can shake a stick at.  and of course, we have the "regular" dishes.  sunday is prime rib night, thursday is steak night, friday features clam chowder made from scratch as the soup of the day, with fish and chips for lunch (from scratch, too) and pizza for supper.  lunch features a sandwich counter as well.  and at every meal, there are 2 main choices, plus a pasta choice and a vegetarian choice, so no matter what, you're pretty much sure to find something you'll like.  while our cooks don't use much in the way of spices, they use a lot of herbs and even without using anything, it's pretty good.
