    Explanation: American dominance of the Pacific was so total during WW2, and our logistical capacity so vast, that while the Axis was scrabbling up every shitbox that floated that they could and putting their civilian populations on starvation rations, the USA was using specialized barges to ship ice cream to our troops

    Don’t get between an American and his sweet tooth!

    Yeah when the Japanese saw the Americans off in the distance running for their ice cream barge like schoolchildren at the playground and looked down at their shitty dried prune sorrowfully planted in a thin tray of plain white rice, they pretty much knew the war was over.
