    “Boots on the ground” is no longer possible because we ate all the boots.

      It looks like extremely low quality grocery store Donair meat. (this may be comprehensible only to Atlantic Canadians)

            @Nickiquote It looks like unheated, preformed Gyro meat. We bought a Gyro dinner kit from Aldi US and before the meat is heated in the pan, it looks like that. Once heated in the pan, it looks slightly more appetizing as it turns a caramel color and the edges curl up.

              @ReggieHere I mean, maybe. If it has some tongue in it, that’s probably the best quality meat in there.

                      WTF? Our equipment was old as hell, but our hot food was top notch in the Canadian Army. The MRE/IMPs were hit or miss, but still one hell of a lot better than that.

                      Gross.

                        I think it's a slice of donner meat as well.
                        Perhaps it's been steamed?

                                  There's no doubt about the carrots being carrots. If the lumpy patty on the right is a burger (meat), then the grey thing would likely be either a starch or another vegetable. My guess: a slice of eggplant, also known as aubergine.

                                  However, of the lumpy thing is a starch, then the grey slice must be meat.

                                    Essentially yes, but you can get a store-bought version here that comes in pre-cut slices that look like that.

                                        @Nickiquote well, it really does look like the insole of a boot. Though when Chaplin eat his boot in the Gold Rush it was actually made of licorice.
