Taken out of context, this seems to be yet another example of military
and government bloat. However, if genuine, it appears to be an iron-clad
specification for outside suppliers to provide our troops with clean,
safe, wrapped cookies. I'll bet nobody could sneak any adulterant
melamine, say, through that document.

The recipes the military cooks actually use for garrisoned troops are
pretty boring, notable mostly for making 100 servings. Each are only a
single page long. Do a Google search for H00200.pdf for the Brownies and
H00700.pdf for the Oatmeal Cookies.
