The first few pictures are inside one of the produce walk-in refrigerators. This is where the CIA keeps all their homemade stocks (about 100 lbs are made daily or more). They are sealed in plastic bags and held in the walk-ins for each class to use daily. They make all the different stocks, such as chicken, beef, veal, seafood, vegetable, etc. To give an example of the volume of these kitchens and how much the issuing department must order, the school uses 40 lbs of shallots PER DAY. That is a humongous amount of shallots! Pretty amazing.
They have 3 (50 lb) bags of carrots delivered daily as well. Their main purveyor is a produce company down in the Bronx. Some things are farm direct, but most are from this wholesaler in the Bronx.
Here are some green peppers, these are picked immature for their green color and high acidity.
Another picture is of some green onions that are packed iceless! That's kind of a novelty if you ask me. More to come!
