The claim
東日本大震災での自粛や批判をきっかけに陸上自衛隊で赤飯が廃止された
Original review summary
The review says the Ground Self-Defense Force did stop supplying red rice, but not because of the East Japan earthquake. It attributes the change to switching emergency rations from cans to retort pouches and changing the menu.[S1]
Additional context
The review says red rice was supplied from around 1980 until 2013. It also reports that the military said red rice was stopped at the disaster site as a consideration for residents, but that this was not the reason it was removed from the menu. [S1]
