The GI's in Vietnam also had alot of explicit names for the Charlie ration kits, like beans and dicks (Baked beans and hot dogs) and beans and motherf***ers (Lima beans and Ham).

Having eaten enough C-rats and MREs (Meals Rejected By Ethiopians) I still prefer the C-Rats LOL. Though I have eaten Canadian,Polish and Swiss rations also. I remember seeing a WWII cartoon where some surrendering Japanese soldier tell a US soldier that they are willing to surrender as long as they do not have to eat "That American Delicacy called "Spam" " LOL.
