Inside Guantanamo Bay's Kitchen: The Politics of Food

  • Опубликовано: 25 июл 2024
  • You’ve probably read, watched, or heard something controversial about the Guantanamo Bay detention camp since it started housing suspected terrorists in 2002. This past year, most media has centered around hunger strikes-which is one of the most well-known ways that prisoners protest their indefinite detainment-and the subsequent force-feeding they endure. Last year, there were over 100 detainees on hunger strike. But what about the detainees that are eating?
    Fortunately for them, there's Sam, the cheery middle-aged Korean chef that takes pride in each meal she whips up. Sam makes chicken eight different ways, prepares both Halal and Kosher meals, and bakes an impressive assortment of cookies. And every ingredient used in her kitchen comes from … you guessed it … America.
    Our host Gianna Toboni spent a few days last March on a riveting tour of Gitmo, from the cellblock to the prison library to the local mini golf course and the fascinating commissary. We don't know what was more surprising-the huge python that we encountered, or the interesting politics of the camp's kitchen.

      Korean mommies, and grandmas are so sweet. I live in a military town with a lot of Koreans. I started buying kimchi, and a few other Korean foods that I developed a taste for at a local market. The ladies that work there are so awesome, and they have gotten to know me, and my habits. When I come in they already know what I want, and they start packaging my groceries, and always have some fresh Korean pancakes as well as a big smile, and hug for me.

      I'm not really sure what you're asking, but I think you're asking me if I go into the store to hit on them. No. Not only am I happily married man, but so are the women that work there, and they are all quite a bit older than me. I go in the store to buy traditional Korean foods that I enjoy eating, and cannot purchase at large chain grocery stores.

      last9emperor There is no way the employees eat the food supposed to go to detainees. They want real food from there home like anyone else. They do not need to make the food bad if they are all on hunger strikes anyway. The prisoners would think the food has drugs in it so even if you made it amazing they would still more the likely not like it.

    To be real right now; even though the person who runs the food is delightful it feels patronizing to say she has a 'blissful ignorance.' Just because she has an accent and enjoys her job. That doesn't mean you would have the right to patronize her intelligence. She most likely knows better than anyone the hunger strikes, dosent mean she's 'ignorant' just because she's displaying to you how shes meant to do her job. Not everyone has the advantage of a politically 'woke' job. Sometimes you take what you can get and do your best, and you don't have the right to take an elitist position of basically calling her a delightful moron in your doco.

      ***** Please read again my comment. My main thought was that food was shown as example/evidence of how good prisoners are threated, but simultaneously omitted more important aspects of their existence such as "tortures, humiliation, many years imprison without the trial and other human right stuff".
      It is like if someone was raping you but whispering during penetration "i love you" - it is simple irrelevant in that situation, don't you think?

The military has plenty of chefs & cooks, yet why her? My best guess is that the kitchen isn’t military, but by contract.

      TarcidzMike I don't know man. As much as I'd like to keep this argument going, I have to admit I'm a bit uninformed in matters like this. I've been studying in the US for the last 3 years and I'm constantly frustrated by such high amount of violence and crime. I know that gun control is arguably the primary reason for it but that's no excuse for such high homicide rates. To be honest, I don't know what I'm even getting at. I'm just another frustrated person living in the US and seeing that these criminals/terrorists receiving relatively good treatment when there's are hundreds of thousands if not millions of people on the streets in the US.

    What a cute, little, ignorant foreigner! Is it racism, or just plain condescension?
    I could have gone with "cute", but not after the "ignorant" comment. Why is she ignorant? Because she's happy? Is she supposed to morose all the time because she works in a prison camp? I guess as a hard hitting human rights/cafeteria reporter, it's hard for her to be around people who lack her heightened sense of professional empathy. Oh, if only we could all care as properly as she does!

The Korean woman is probably exposed to very little about the living standards of the detainees, that's why she was saying, "Sometime's when they don't eat I think 'did I not make it right?'" when they're just on hunger strikes. I agree with what she said to be honest but I guess it's how you perceive it

Hence, Kosher is cleaner than Halal. No big deal. Many Halal things ARE Kosher. Just not all. It's nothing to get excited about. I'm saying the prisoners are getting food that is inspected and certified on even a higher level than they desire. Consider it a gesture of kindness from your hosts.

Very few were 'full-out' terrorists... These people were kept locked up without reason and proven guilty then later innocent...

    I've unfortunately had the experience of having briefly been held in what would be considered a "nicer" jail here in the US, and the the food is unrecognizable slop in microscopic portions. I also know people who have served tours at GTMO, and it's not just the food that is a higher standard than our domestic jails and prisons, the medical care, cells, nearly everything is held to a higher standard, all because of the PR and optics. How come you never see anyone getting nearly as upset about how we treat our own citizens as they do these detainees? Somethings to think about.

      Well fed prisons have better food too. This is military so they kinda have higher expectations like in the Geneva convention.

      You do realize that America treats its prisoners the way we would like our American pows to be treated right? Obviously you missed that memo. Turn your brain on next time before you make a stupid comment like that. Im sure if you were captured youd want this treatment right? Quit your bitching and go change your tampon. No wonder why trumps president, this country is full of the stupidest people in the world now. Its called doing the right thing and if you think treating prisoners like shit then you're no better than they are. Im embarrassed to call my self American after reading something so blatantly ignorant and stupid.

      Tommy L this is a bit different. These are POW, this is not a state prison.

    I highly doubt that they do those types of meals for inmates in there they will probably do anything to make it look humanitarian in front of the camera

    I'm all for humane treatment, even for murderers, but... If you give them decent quality food and they don't eat it due to a "hunger strike" I would politely bring them a tray of food twice a day and just wait. They WILL eat or choose to starve. Why force feed anyone?? Offer clean and nutritious food and drink and wait...

      its prob more trouble to deal with a terrorist who becomes a martyr by starving himself then to just use a feeding tube
