What difficulties did people experience, in chapter 2, with food, housing, and living arrangements?

So you are only talking about Chapter 2, where the family
has just been sent to Manzanar, right?

If so, we see them
have problems as soon as they get there.  First of all, they go to have dinner and the
cooks have no idea what kind of stuff Japanese eat.  They put fruit on top of overcooked
rice, not realizing that Japanese didn't eat sweet stuff on
rice.

Then they went to the barracks and the living
quarters were tiny.  They had two 16 by 20 foot rooms for the twelve people in their
family -- that's like two pretty big bedrooms in modern American houses.  In addition,
the walls had cracks in them.  Finally, some people got put into these small rooms with
people they didn't even know.
