This is so true. It made me smile a wistful, reminiscent smile, for which, in honor of the day, I am giving you a pos rep.

We had recently graduated from day sails only, where the only meals you ate underway were sandwiches for lunch, to longer trips with multiple overnights.
Forget "the good dishes" - the best meal I've ever eaten was a styrofoam cup of hot Campbell's tomato soup that someone handed me when I came on watch at 0200 on a crystalline, cold, October night.
There are some times when you eat for gourmet pleasure and other times when you eat strictly for 'body maintenance.'
PS: Not sure what to say about your bad Corelle experience, but then again we're adults only on our boat (at least until after the second round of rum punch!)
