Ration-square

Ration-squares were a type of food served to the cadets of the Academy for Young Imperials on the planet Lothal during the reign of the Galactic Empire. Around five years before the Battle of Yavin,The events of Servants of the Empire: Rebel in the Ranks take place during the events of the first season of the Star Wars Rebels television show. Star Wars Rebels: The Visual Guide establishes that the events of the season take place five years prior to the Battle of Yavin, and therefore so must the events of the novel. the human Cadet Jai Kell complained to his roommates at the academy that he longed for maize rolls and Westhills butter instead of another meal of ration-squares. Lieutenant Chiron, however, told his cadets that being in the Emperor's service made ration-squares comparable to the finest nerf steak.
