(This picture also makes me wonder what the heck “Veg-meat” is supposed to mean. Is it fake meat like Tofu?)I would imagine so. Something like Seitan; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheat_gluten_(food)
Just had some for lunch myself about 20 minutes ago (Field Roast hot dog).In a military operation or remote-world outpost where there isn’t an available source for agriculture, it would make perfect sense to have long-term dried rations.
Yeah that makes a lot of sense actually.
It was mostly just the name that weirded me out, basically just “vegetable-meat,” which sounds very confusing.
But the idea of Rey scavenging to earn de-hydrated bread and “fake” meat on Jakku is a pretty nice little touch. It’s a bit like the moisture-vaporators, the film(s) never really draws any attention to it (pointing out the tech is more of a ST thing), but it still to adds to the environment.
