I tried another recipe that also claimed to be restaurant style. It was somewhat better than the first, but again, no slimy texture.
Let's talk shit about veterans, or military people generally.
These guys have poor impulse control. When I was in the service, there was a McDonald's on every base I was stationed at. Come the first of each month, when we got paid, there would be very long lines at Mickey Sleaze. The chow hall would be practically empty. Towards the end of the month, when everyone had blown their paychecks on booze, carousing, and fast food, the reverse was true.
Something happened today that reminded me of that. The food bank dropped off a shit ton of food, including a bunch of frozen pizzas. These guys were cooking the pizzas hand over fist all day. They're not particularly good pizzas. The crust has a rather spongy texture, like foam rubber. But just the fact that it was pizza - quick and easy junk food - drew the guys like cockroaches.
The food bank also delivered a lot of bread, including several cases of bagels. Unless I miss my guess, they'll burn through the pizzas in a couple of days and be stuck eating bagels until the next delivery.
Another thing I noticed about many vets is that they love to hear themselves talk. They'll prattle mindlessly along for five or ten minutes at a stretch without letting you get in a word edgewise. I get listening fatigue from a few of them.
