Soldiers have complained about thier issue rations since the start of warfare, becuase it about the only safe topic to complain about.

I'm going to say that anyone who complained about 70s-era C-rats never tried K-rations. And those who complained about K-rations never had dried beef, hard beans, "coffee" made out of chichory, and hardtack to live on for a year at a stretch.
