Answer:

Perishables.

The government didn't allow perishables because for one thing they would spoil and ruin the rest of the food and then there were so many soldiers that if their perishables rotted they would get sick and they couldn't use sickness.

Another thing is that their vegetables were in short supply and in great demand and they wouldn't have enough to ship to all their soldiers.

i’m gonna assume it’s the perishables, considering you gave us no context. i think this because they rot quickly and are difficult to ration??
