@youcometome9 there are various possibilities. 1. Its a kind of meat which is unusual possibly a warthog or antelope which is served in africa which may be s taboo for foreigners. 2.Bangladesi people know that hindus and several others dont eat beef so may be he is trying to hide its beef. 3.May be the soldier being told to serve the food himself dont know what the dish was so he was briefed in english. 4. I am a dumbass. 🤔

[@amirkhattabfernandez2439]

Facts

[@ldno3747]

The food issue is more of a description problem for them. All white bird meat is simply called chicken by some nations within the UN as it just much easier to explain. Some nations have no idea what Turkey is so it is just easier to say to someone it is basically chicken for example. The UN food system means that when they place their order for food every month with the rations suppliers there will be substitutions where needed as long as they don't break any religious taboo's. If there is no chicken, they'll get turkey. If there is no lamb, it could be beef or goat. Remember these guys are being supplied as best as possible according to their requests but it is sometimes just not possible to get everything the ask for.

[@zappertona]

Kawua biriyani or crow meat. Bangladeshis eat crow meat

[@brandonc3956]

Honestly it was probably chicken the guy called it by it actual dish name in english where in Bangladesh it wouldnt be understood so the guy knew the english name for his meal and the soldiers didnt BUT in those areas chickens arnt raised for meat to feed everyone chicken it wasnt fresh probably some canned unrecognizable meat and they find it gross

[@joemamaobama6863]

@@Chofrizzy Other major languages include Mende, which is spoken by 31% of the population as a mother tongue and as a lingua franca in southern Sierra Leone, and Temne, which is spoken by 37% as a mother tongue and also as a lingua franca in the northern province, north Western province, and other part of Sierra Leone and some part of the Capital and the Western Area. Other languages include Kono, Kissi, Kuranko, Limba, Fula (Pular), Mandingo and Susu. Although English, as the official language, is spoken in schools, government administration and the media, Krio is spoken as a lingua franca in virtually all parts of Sierra Leone. Krio, an English-based creole language, is the mother tongue of 10.5% of the population but is spoken by 90% of Sierra Leoneans.[5] In 2002, some News media claimed that after the contribution made by the Bangladesh UN Peacekeeping Force in the Sierra Leone Civil War under the United Nations Mission in Sierra Leone, the government of Ahmad Tejan Kabbah declared Bengali an honorary official language in December 2002.[6][7][8][9] wikipedia

[@carltomacruz9138]

No, that is completely false. Per official sources, English is still the sole official language in Sierra Leone. Bengali does not have any official status whatsoever; maybe an honorary status given by the government of Sierra Leone as a token of appreciation, but not an official status.
