I think the roast beef or something is labeled as 'gyro meat' aboard the carriers-experience.
What it is actually made of I have no idea.
The carrier often operates on a 'pay check to pay check' diet. The machine is packed with food stores, ammo, repair parts, etc and then it sallies forth.
The food is cooked, eaten, spoiled, otherwise consumed and must be replenished. Replenishing the machine is a huge phenomenon. Sometimes.the replenishing does not happen soon enough or there is rationing because they know the ritual of replenishment can only happen on x date which is a long way out.
With news articles like the one hyperlinked by someone, im sure the priests of the machine are going to ensure to gather a bountiful replenishment and spoil the men and women of the machine as soon as is actually possible--hopefully.
Yeah it's 100% gyro strips. I've had them in gyro kits before. While they have a less saturated color like spam or other processed meats, I think the lighting angle in this picture distorts it a bit.
They can be really greasy so that's what the light is reflecting. I dab them with paper towels when I prepare them.
Normally it's not served plain, obviously. Usually it's on a round peta with onion, lettuce, tomato, and cucumber sauce.
Edit: Here's an example of what I mean. Sometimes the cheap, hyper-processed stuff doesn't have the frilled edges that most people would expect from "off the cylinder" gyro meat.

Hopefully this guy or gal that took the photo had some sauces they smothered on there before eating it. Bringing a few bottles of chicken fil a sauce is always prime.
