Master Chef: This needs to be changed/re-ordered

I'd swap Short Order Cook and Military Cook. The Short Order Cook may have a limited repertoire, but presumably she has standards to meet or she will be fired or not promoted to pastry chef or whatever. And she has to be able to do sunny side up, over easy, and over medium consistently, while juggling five other orders at the same time.

 

The Military Cook has exactly zero incentive to do anything other than shovel out the grub on time and in sufficient quantity. The grub likely has, at best, limited "preparation" requirements. Unless this refers to the cook at a decent officers' mess or, like, the Navy Mess in the White House (who make outstanding chicken nuggets, I hear). My vote for the correct order:

 

Bachelor

Military Cook

Short order cook

Grandma (sorry, Nana, the date-walnut pudding was excellent, but what on earth was with the braunschweiger?)

Master Chef

You'd be surprised, I'm not sure about the Army (I figure it's the same), but military chefs are no joke and take it seriously (highly esteemed, too).

You know what? You're right. I should not have been so negative - there is undoubtedly a range of skills and enthusiasm in any job. I just had bad memories of the chow hall at McClellan AFB back in the day. And frankly that may have more to do with a DI breathing down my neck rather than food quality. Maybe to avoid insulting any military chefs or nanas, we need a new ranking system entirely, one which will not offend anybody:

 

Ramen Ranger

BBQ Basics

Casserole Commander

Souffle Specialist

Banquet Boss

I dont really care about the order they should be in.

 

The only thing that i want added is voice lines being unlocked when you reach Master Chef.

 

You could turn to another fellow player and go like:

- What are you ??!? 😠

- An idiot sandwich... 😟

@Jugginator I wish i could agree. Man the food was so bad. Still grossed out when thinking about it over 25 years later. Brrr. Only good food i got from a military cook was during the draft. Even had a huge buffet for breakfast there. But boy where we dissapointed when we started our military service. (we have 8 months of compulsary military service)

That's me. I can do so many different things with Ramen noodles its amazing. Plus all of them leave you feeling unsatisfied and hungry again about 30 minutes later....

Lately I've been hooked on Ramen also, but I like to cook it as a soup. I add a bit more water, a beef Bouillon cube and 250 ml of Tomato purée over the vanilla recipe... I could drown in it :)
