They have a lot of pasta dishes in their repertoire as well as eating it as a side dish. Stroganov is eaten with pasta, for example. Makarony po-flotski (macaroni naval style) is basically a pasta in ground beef ragout.
I loved Russian salad as a kid, my favorite way of eating veggies.
That shit looks like someone tried to season with vinegar and olie oil which diluted the mayo into a runny mess.
Ok but that didn't explain the deal with the pasta. What is it doing in the tank box?

If I looted store macaroni I would keep it in the bag. This doesn't look like it meets food safety regulation.

I do ask questions when watching movies but I fail to see how that is relevant here. Please, just tell me what they were doing with the pasta.

they're russian
worse, many are from undeveloped central asian plains. these were heavily used as front line troops to soak up casualties early in the war and know nothing but pillage, rape and slaughter. they are not thinking about food safety because they do not think.

That is not ammo crate. It is crate for the spares and repair and service instruments.

Given what we've seen so far -- a surprise invasion fleet running out of gas on the road, carboard egg cartons where ERA should be, RF soldiers wearing looted dress shoes, plundered toilets and washing machines -- I'm finding 20 kg of looted elbow pasta relatively easy to believe.
And the photo that started the meme. Looks like no explosive, just spacers.
I doubt the Ukrainians tore open the bag, removed the explosives and spacers and just stuffed back the spacers as a propaganda "gotcha". The Russians were already embarrassing themselves completely even without that.
>Explain why Russia would have so much macaroni on the front line
These brave Russian men were killed trying to escape back to Russia with evidence of Ukraine's NATO-funded super secret special superpasta program. That elbow macaroni was made in hidden genetic labs in Ukraine and spliced with Russophobic satan DNA designed to kill innocent Russian babies. That's why they kept it in the tank compartment; so they'd have the means to kill the pasta if it broke free of its metallic prison.
>Explain why Russia would have so much macaroni on the front line.
My dude, the Russians looted a doghouse and a live raccoon during the SMO. They will steal anything and everything. They have no dignity, no shame, no morals. They're human locusts.

>Explain why Russia would have so much macaroni on the front line.
Because their glorious army is giving them field rations past ther expiration date that have seen soviet times, and they're doing everything possible not to starve?
Really? This isn’t even the most humiliating thing Russia has done. Like it would just be kind of funny if it wasn’t in the context of Russia being completely incapable. Like why would anybody think of this?
That is how I viewed the war thus far and so far I have been right about everything.
Whatever is funniest (read: most pathetic) in relation to Russia is likely to be true.
For the first 6 months of the war I tried to be discerning and disbelieved every incredible or hilarious thing I saw from it as untrue because nothing that ridiculous could possibly happen in reality but it was the goddamn truth every single fucking time. Now when I see something insane I don't even question it, because of COURSE they were storing pasta in the tank, this isn't even the craziest thing I've seen Russians do
Exactly.
Besides this entire propaganda war is: >xaxa we killed 5000 nato generals and 500 boris johnson >may I see it? >no fuck off trany
3 days later >xaxa we killed hato also 5000 boris johnsons here footage you yeyes now see Truth Z now suck penis or Russia >its a pixelated sprite from Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun exploding in 144p with a monochrome filter

>how bad off do you have to be to be looting pasta >ziggers are now using looted dollar store pasta as ERA bricks for their T-62 obr. 2023
where did it all go so wrong for russia
Bro at this point why are you surprised, of course the fucking vatniks filled the storage crates on the tank with macaroni, you're lucky you didn't find some stolen sex toys and toilets piled on top of it
Bro have you seen their MREs? Lead-infused pasta boiled with corpse-adjacent Bakhmut water garnished with paint flakes is probably a fucking delicacy for them
>T-62M
To be fair, I'm sure the tank's repair equipments have been missing since the late 80s so the crews are just utilizing some empty storage space.
Whoever did it was probably so proud of themselves too. Which makes it even more sad:
"I, Ivonovich Conscriptovich, will not be the mobik who starves like the rest, eating mouldy bread and toilet water. I will keep much stolen macaroni with me at all times. Officers do not feed mobiks, but I am smart mobik. I will keep stolen macaroni in giant box attached to tank. It is unfortunate I do not have sack to carry macaroni but the tank is very strong and will carry heavy macaroni for me. Look at how clever I am to remain fed and warm in comfy tank that protects me from NATO. I am smart "
Are you people fucking retarded? It saps moisture and keeps things from oxidizing. Much like putting your phone in rice after you drop it in the shitter.
Ahh, that's why Russia only had one tank in the victory parade and why the price of pasta is skyrocketting, they need all the pasta to get the old rusting tanks in order, got it
People are joking around but this might actually be pretty telling of how fucked the Russian supply situation is, maybe command is sending units bulk pasta and other commercial staples instead of actual military rations. Might even be bought from Prigozhin's concession company.
or the rubber armor from the faint of Kherson. That one was just WTF. And no it wasn't NERA, just bits of tyre rubber cut up and put in ERA containers.
>out of military rations >all that's left are literal heaps of looted groceries >fuck logistics, ring a triangle bell and shout at troops to come get it >straggling tank crew is the last to arrive. all that's left are ripped packages of pasta but they still rush to fill whatever containers they can find with the precious food.
Okay, but why?
Did they loot it from some pasta factory or warehouse?
Did the Russian Army run out of MRE's and they have to lug around dry food in crates (i.e. tank storage bins) like it's the Napoleonic wars?
It was probably looted from their field kitchen while they were pasing it on the way to front. Larger military kitchens store dry foods in giant barrels or bags, they probably snatched the macaroni along with some canned meat knowing well that their logistics isn't going to provide them anything even resembling hot meal while they are fighting.
Holy shit the mental image of him making a video of breaking the spaghetti in half with the sledge hammer and then dumping it into the tank's designated pasta compartment while Italy is petitioning the International Criminal Court to be brought up on terrorism charges
>launch missile against Himars >miss and hit pasta factory >uncooked pasta rains from the sky >starving mobiks collect it >no ammo or tools so stash it in the boxes
>Russia invades Ukraine >fucks everything up and gets their whole professional army killed >capture one of their tanks >open the storage unit >the tank bursts into pasta
Reminds me of when ukes found the supply truck that was just loaded with sacks of yellow onions. (and chug predictably coming to the Russians defence with how much they love onions themselves)
For some inexplicable reason it makes me much sadder to think of some sad mobik who didn't even get his little onions than literally seeing them being blown to smithereens. Same energy in this thread. Maybe it reminds me that when they're not shelling civilians for practically no reason they're also humans who just wanted to eat some onions
This one, I bet. If you actually look at the truck, it looks like it has proper equipment in it, it should be able to operate as a proper field kitchen, Instead though, it appears to be operated by subhuman morons who can't actually keep it clean, sanitary, properly stocked, locked down, etc.. They're like chimps watching real humans and aping what they do, but not understanding the purpose.
Same with their tanks, tankers on youtube from NATO countries constantly comment on the filthy conditions internally, the poor discipline and training. Fucking Russians.
>Same with their tanks, tankers on youtube from NATO countries constantly comment on the filthy conditions internally, the poor discipline and training. Fucking Russians.
Noticed this too, when that T-90 arrived in America some ex-Abrams crew redditor commented on this, how they would never be caught dead letting the tank's interior degrade that bad.
Then again this tank went through matched combat, abandoned, captured, then probably went through combat again.
That's a gunner position, but yeah. I think this variant should have been produced somewhere between 2005 and 2011, but the inside looks like it's a wreck from the 70's,
Just watching the internal shots of their "Navy" required me to update my tetanus. I know people in the military bitch about drill, NCOs up their ass, grooming, record keeping/paperwork, uniforms, and so forth, but this bullshit is why it all that is necessary. The MOMENT you let up in a large organization standards and maintenance go to shit.

Any american platoon sergeant who saw their drivers hole in this state would absolutely lose their fucking minds.
I did a mental exercise how much effort it'd take to keep stuff like that field kitchen running in good order (assuming it was technically OK since it was made in 2019) and realized that it's simply not possible in at least 2 generations, unless you took it from Russians and gave it to people who haven't lost their moral core.
Russians are mentally still living in a prison (Russian prison), dog-eat-dog caste environment. Even if you tore the dedovshchina out, replaced ALL the mobiks and 98% of the officers retaining only a few sane ones as instructors, you'd still get that shit seeping in from general society, from the streets and childhood. That's also why every time you see temporary Russian barracks, camps, or trenches, they're always incredibly filthy. It's because 1. if someone can't stand the filth and throws out the trash not personally belonging to him, he is now a designated trash bitch and from now on it's his duty to clean trash, for no reward except beatings for failure to do so. 2. If an officer orders clearing trash, it will invariably get delegated to the weakest/least popular mobiks, damn the exact orders, and the officer will have to take responsibility for the result, including any harm that comes to the trash bitch. So, they live in shit and the equipment rots.
>How is it that Russians are able to continue to whip out this baffling silliness week after week?
The answer, unironcally, is communism. 70 years of surrealist dystopia in a place that close to the arctic circle is a hell of a drug.

That was literally just ERA. It looks like egg cartons.
No the "egg cartons" are plastic spacers between the explosive inserts. Ukrainians found tank ERA bags with only spacers, no explosives.

And the photo that started the meme. Looks like no explosive, just spacers.
I doubt the Ukrainians tore open the bag, removed the explosives and spacers and just stuffed back the spacers as a propaganda "gotcha". The Russians were already embarrassing themselves completely even without that.
>Explain why Russia would have so much macaroni on the front line
These brave Russian men were killed trying to escape back to Russia with evidence of Ukraine's NATO-funded super secret special superpasta program. That elbow macaroni was made in hidden genetic labs in Ukraine and spliced with Russophobic satan DNA designed to kill innocent Russian babies. That's why they kept it in the tank compartment; so they'd have the means to kill the pasta if it broke free of its metallic prison.
>Explain why Russia would have so much macaroni on the front line.
My dude, the Russians looted a doghouse and a live raccoon during the SMO. They will steal anything and everything. They have no dignity, no shame, no morals. They're human locusts.

>Explain why Russia would have so much macaroni on the front line.
Because their glorious army is giving them field rations past ther expiration date that have seen soviet times, and they're doing everything possible not to starve?
>Explain why Russia would have so much macaroni on the front line.
Mama mia.....
Really? This isn’t even the most humiliating thing Russia has done. Like it would just be kind of funny if it wasn’t in the context of Russia being completely incapable. Like why would anybody think of this?
>Russia invaded Ukraine in order to steal their wheat so they can make more macaroni

You deserve your (you)s
Tactical advantage of keeping a pasta compartment in your tonk?
you'll always have pasta to eat no matter how bad your logistics break down

I... I don't know
Witnessed
That's how I like to live, it makes the world a more entertaining place to be
That is how I viewed the war thus far and so far I have been right about everything.
Whatever is funniest (read: most pathetic) in relation to Russia is likely to be true.
For the first 6 months of the war I tried to be discerning and disbelieved every incredible or hilarious thing I saw from it as untrue because nothing that ridiculous could possibly happen in reality but it was the goddamn truth every single fucking time. Now when I see something insane I don't even question it, because of COURSE they were storing pasta in the tank, this isn't even the craziest thing I've seen Russians do
Of course, Russia sold off the repair kit and put pasta inside.
It is only natural that Russia would do that.
Exactly.
Besides this entire propaganda war is:
>xaxa we killed 5000 nato generals and 500 boris johnson
>may I see it?
>no fuck off trany

What STANAG level does dried macaroni offer in terms of protection?
The Pasta Panzers are 30 minutes out
Every day with this cargo cult shit.
Don't they know that you need ramen noodles to fix tanks?
Its like they're in fucking prison, pasta is worth more to them than ammo.
The pasta is pasteurizing
>Ivan, grab the packing noodles for rear-left storage container
>I got u comrade
So this proves that all the talk of artillery shortages are bullshit since the Russians obviously have all the shells they need.
shut up
No
>elbow pasta
do americans really?
we are legally obligated to called it macaroni product
nobody else speaks your gypsy language, guido

jesus christ its fucking real???
Bro at this point why are you surprised, of course the fucking vatniks filled the storage crates on the tank with macaroni, you're lucky you didn't find some stolen sex toys and toilets piled on top of it
That's good eating.
Just add hot water.
It's a drain on logistics though
>mom found the macaroni crate
Prigozhin asked for shells. Instead he got a crate of frontline macaroni
Highly underrated post, here's a well deserved (you)
Bon Appetit Betch
I'm sure that box was painted with non-toxic chemicals that won't seep into the pasta
Bro have you seen their MREs? Lead-infused pasta boiled with corpse-adjacent Bakhmut water garnished with paint flakes is probably a fucking delicacy for them
They're not going to live long enough to have to worry about that.
>when you call prigozhin for supplies but accidentally get the catering department
>T-62M
To be fair, I'm sure the tank's repair equipments have been missing since the late 80s so the crews are just utilizing some empty storage space.
Clearly a mix up by a supply officer. They clearly asked for shells and got macaroni.
>They clearly asked for shells and got macaroni
damn it you made this joke one fucking minute before I could lol
fug
Fake. Propaganda.
It has to be.
The permitted pasta?
Whoever did it was probably so proud of themselves too. Which makes it even more sad:
"I, Ivonovich Conscriptovich, will not be the mobik who starves like the rest, eating mouldy bread and toilet water. I will keep much stolen macaroni with me at all times. Officers do not feed mobiks, but I am smart mobik. I will keep stolen macaroni in giant box attached to tank. It is unfortunate I do not have sack to carry macaroni but the tank is very strong and will carry heavy macaroni for me. Look at how clever I am to remain fed and warm in comfy tank that protects me from NATO. I am smart "
Are you people fucking retarded? It saps moisture and keeps things from oxidizing. Much like putting your phone in rice after you drop it in the shitter.
the phone in rice thing is a myth, and macaroni is literally not as effective. this is food storage anon. welcome to the modern russian military.
>retard calls others retarded
many such cases!
>It saps moisture and keeps things from oxidizing
Ahh, that's why Russia only had one tank in the victory parade and why the price of pasta is skyrocketting, they need all the pasta to get the old rusting tanks in order, got it
People are joking around but this might actually be pretty telling of how fucked the Russian supply situation is, maybe command is sending units bulk pasta and other commercial staples instead of actual military rations. Might even be bought from Prigozhin's concession company.
That reminds me of that comic with Necron monolith containing cheese for whatever reason
We live in such a strange timeline
There is absolutely a joke here somewhere about the Russian army running on semen and semolina
Remember egg carton armor?
Ukropiggie Javelins are not ready for uncooked pasta armor.
or the rubber armor from the faint of Kherson. That one was just WTF. And no it wasn't NERA, just bits of tyre rubber cut up and put in ERA containers.
>out of military rations
>all that's left are literal heaps of looted groceries
>fuck logistics, ring a triangle bell and shout at troops to come get it
>straggling tank crew is the last to arrive. all that's left are ripped packages of pasta but they still rush to fill whatever containers they can find with the precious food.
Okay, but why?
Did they loot it from some pasta factory or warehouse?
Did the Russian Army run out of MRE's and they have to lug around dry food in crates (i.e. tank storage bins) like it's the Napoleonic wars?
It was probably looted from their field kitchen while they were pasing it on the way to front. Larger military kitchens store dry foods in giant barrels or bags, they probably snatched the macaroni along with some canned meat knowing well that their logistics isn't going to provide them anything even resembling hot meal while they are fighting.
Ngl munching on some tank pasta almost seems comfy.
>Prigozhin upon receiving tanks
>"Now we are cooking"
Prigozhin pasta delivery service.
>Priggy and Co. cracking spaghetti with sledgehammers
Holy shit the mental image of him making a video of breaking the spaghetti in half with the sledge hammer and then dumping it into the tank's designated pasta compartment while Italy is petitioning the International Criminal Court to be brought up on terrorism charges
>launch missile against Himars

Reminds me of when ukes found the supply truck that was just loaded with sacks of yellow onions. (and chug predictably coming to the Russians defence with how much they love onions themselves)
For some inexplicable reason it makes me much sadder to think of some sad mobik who didn't even get his little onions than literally seeing them being blown to smithereens. Same energy in this thread. Maybe it reminds me that when they're not shelling civilians for practically no reason they're also humans who just wanted to eat some onions
This one, I bet. If you actually look at the truck, it looks like it has proper equipment in it, it should be able to operate as a proper field kitchen, Instead though, it appears to be operated by subhuman morons who can't actually keep it clean, sanitary, properly stocked, locked down, etc.. They're like chimps watching real humans and aping what they do, but not understanding the purpose.
Same with their tanks, tankers on youtube from NATO countries constantly comment on the filthy conditions internally, the poor discipline and training. Fucking Russians.
Yep. Well maybe I shouldn't say they're humans. The pity i feel is maybe more akin to that you have towards dumb animals who only know savagery
>Same with their tanks, tankers on youtube from NATO countries constantly comment on the filthy conditions internally, the poor discipline and training. Fucking Russians.
Noticed this too, when that T-90 arrived in America some ex-Abrams crew redditor commented on this, how they would never be caught dead letting the tank's interior degrade that bad.
Then again this tank went through matched combat, abandoned, captured, then probably went through combat again.
Any american platoon sergeant who saw their drivers hole in this state would absolutely lose their fucking minds.
That's a gunner position, but yeah. I think this variant should have been produced somewhere between 2005 and 2011, but the inside looks like it's a wreck from the 70's,
Just watching the internal shots of their "Navy" required me to update my tetanus. I know people in the military bitch about drill, NCOs up their ass, grooming, record keeping/paperwork, uniforms, and so forth, but this bullshit is why it all that is necessary. The MOMENT you let up in a large organization standards and maintenance go to shit.
GROOMIN STANDURDS
Hahaha. Good heavens. Wherever did you find this spciture of me?
That neglect is very old and started many years before this war. Lack of corrosion control is always a tell.
I did a mental exercise how much effort it'd take to keep stuff like that field kitchen running in good order (assuming it was technically OK since it was made in 2019) and realized that it's simply not possible in at least 2 generations, unless you took it from Russians and gave it to people who haven't lost their moral core.
Russians are mentally still living in a prison (Russian prison), dog-eat-dog caste environment. Even if you tore the dedovshchina out, replaced ALL the mobiks and 98% of the officers retaining only a few sane ones as instructors, you'd still get that shit seeping in from general society, from the streets and childhood. That's also why every time you see temporary Russian barracks, camps, or trenches, they're always incredibly filthy. It's because 1. if someone can't stand the filth and throws out the trash not personally belonging to him, he is now a designated trash bitch and from now on it's his duty to clean trash, for no reward except beatings for failure to do so. 2. If an officer orders clearing trash, it will invariably get delegated to the weakest/least popular mobiks, damn the exact orders, and the officer will have to take responsibility for the result, including any harm that comes to the trash bitch. So, they live in shit and the equipment rots.
Fucking plebs. That's not what you do with noodles.
Where the fuck are vatniks going to find that much margarine
Kitchen sink pasta is one thing, but I refuse to believe anyone actually eats it with margarine.
Be careful who you buy used tanks from.

monke trouble
>How is it that Russians are able to continue to whip out this baffling silliness week after week?
The answer, unironcally, is communism. 70 years of surrealist dystopia in a place that close to the arctic circle is a hell of a drug.
Russia has always been a massive shithole dystopia.
But communism infused it with a psychedelic je ne sais quoi you just wouldn't find in a regular feudal backwater.
This entire war is just Zelensky's newest piece of performance comedy. This entire thing has been staged for laughs.

No wonder something like two thirds of all Amerilards are morbidly obese.
Don't forget the best part where it probably is 60% corn syrup and 39% corn additives
I'm sorry wtf?! As a european who has been in USA I can confirm most corn memes are true. Like, USA bread tastes like cake to us that isn't a joke you guys have issues.
But BUTTER?!
No wonder you can't believe its not margarine that's not how butter works damnit!
Why would you ever even want syrup in fucking butter?! It's butter!
I mean, I'm American and I have never eaten fake butter in my life, I honestly do not know who eats this shit
It was all the craze 15-20 years ago. During the dark days of the anti-fat hysteria. Same people are now consuming only fats and proteins now instead.
>USA bread tastes like cake to us
Maybe if all you buy is fucking wonderbread
I hate amerisharts so much.
>Butter
>contains no butter
one might even say it's...
god damn it carlos
You fucking retards, that’s not meant to be butter
That is BREAKFAST SYRUP with an added ‘butter’ flavor. No shit it’s mostly corn syrup
To add to that it’s a misprint saying ‘butter’ after the ‘flavored’ instead of syrup
I’m a Floridian, I shop at Publix, I know what I’m talking about
It’s not bad either, at least compared to other corn based branded syrups. Real Vermont Maple is king, though
New MRE. Add water to the pasta box, drive the T-62M heating element close to the enemy, get hit by RPG-7 or something and wait while the pasta cooks.
In WW2 the Japs realized it was over when they found out that the US Navy had a dedicated ice cream ship. How will hohols cope with Russia having dedicated pasta tanks?

If the Ukrainians combine this concept with the boiling water vessel installed in British armor, they will be unstoppable.
Sneaky Italians preparing to switch sides? Why am I not surprised?
Were they just hungry or was this another asinine attempt to prevent ATGM pennetrations? Even a 9K111 Fagottini could probably go straight through that. It's nuts how the Russian Army has so farfallen short of Western expectations. I don't see how anyone could take Putin seriously as Commander-in-Chifferi with a campaign this shambolic.
