Heat the food packet in the water. (Use British mess tins. They are the right shape) Eat from the packet with that disposable racing spork. Use the water to make your tea. No mess to clean up. Saves water.
Yeah that's what I was thinking, it defeats the point to not eat it in the packaging as in the field you can't be using a million pans for each meal and having to clean everything up

back in the day there were just 4 different 24 hour ration packs and just about everything came in tins. You're right we boiled the tins in our mess tins and used the water for a brew. As for mushrooms as several other people have said they're dangerous We were told the nutrition you got from them wasn't worth the risk unless you really knew what you were eating.
They're special hi temp maritime matches. Like the coast guard approves of You fold the strike strip over the match and pull .. works every time unless they're damp
Just letting watchers of this video know that it is very important to have a positive identification before consuming wild mushrooms. All mushrooms are edible but some only once! The wrong mushroom will kill you
The hot chocolate; Save a bit of it (roughly a spork full) and boil your muesli. After the muesli is done, get the hot chocolate mix and add it to the muesli. Trust me with this.
Those dry fruit would of been made with a lyophilization process. Freeze dried, it involves freezing the product then lower pressure, then remove the ice with sublimation so the water is removed without becoming water on the product
I’m in the army CCF at my school and we ate some rations and I had the chickpea one and it was delicious we were in the woods and it was freezing and the boiling food package in my hand was really nice and when I ate it it warmed me up I can only imagine how much it would increase morale in a war
Read the instructions contained within the ORP. They tell you how to prepare the food therein. You wasted a lot of water. The food is designed to be eaten hot or cold. Place the food sachet into your cooking utensil, then top it up with water and place the utensil on your stove. When the water has boiled for a few minutes take the utensil off your stove, remove your sachet from the boiled water, open the sachet, and eat your food. Saves having to clean your cooking utensil and you can have a hot drink! Put hot or cold water into the muselie packet for the same reason.
I am praying for your country. I am Bulgarian parentage. Mine got away in 1948. Russian rule in the country. I was lucky to be born in Australia, but now they do it again. My thoughts are with you all.
Adding the cheese to meals Is a pro tip, I like adding it to meals that have beans aswell but for me it's a must with the pasta dishes. Same goes for the peanut butter adding it to the muesli is great.
By watching all of such videos I happen to make a conclusion that "we are waiting for a situation to arise to use such pre packed foods" crazy but cool 🙆

good luck with your constipation those biscuit browns where designed by the British army in or around WWI to cause mild constipation so you did not need to go to the loo as often during battle (also helped in WWII and the spitfire pilots when they took to lubricating the superchargers with caster oil causing the unfortunate side effect of raging trots for anyone who flew in them)
i was like "WTF ARE YOU DOING" you dont add the muslie to the water you add the water to the packet, and also add hot chocolate for added taste, and the cookies are AB alternative bread......bloody civies
This is a very good example of how NOT to eat a rat pack, the food pouches are boil in the bag, use the hot water for your brew/wet and the chicken penang is MINE!! GSTK!! 🇬🇧🇬🇧💂♂️
Brilliant candel if i can help british ration packs are designed to be heated while still sealed in packaging so no cleaning involved just immerse in hot water or a uk ration pack heater . This was you can heat your food while making a brew without wasting any water and just eat it out of the pack
I love how many of these MRE reviews complain that the food could be so much better. As a former soldier, they're not made to be cordon bleu, they're designed to shovel in as many calories as possible as quickly as possible, with less fuss as possible. The trade off is that the food isn't exactly restaurant standard. It simply serves a purpose. If we wanted the restaurant experience, we had Pot Noodles from the NAAFI shop.
If I remember right, we called the biscuits, biscuit browns. I preferred the fruit biscuits in the red packets, crushed and mixed with melted chocolate yorkie bars, usually on the engine louvres, mixed together in a sealable bag and allowed to cool hard before eating
I had to freeze the video and check the writing on the package as they looked more like some kind of cracker to me, but sure enough they are biscuits brown. The design has changed since the 90's as back then they were a lot smaller and looked more like darker more solid digestives. Just about everyone loved them, but yeah you didn't need a number two anytime soon after eating them.
I forgot about this channel! Man I have missed this channel I hope everything is well since the last time I was here! (Last time I was here I was still in school but im in college now so some time has passed.)
maybe the large spork is a nod to the racing spoon, traditionally you would carry a massive spoon on exercise and ask your mates if you could have a spoonful of their scran, when they said yes you would produce your ridiculously oversized spoon and help yourself to half of the pot with just one spoonful 😂😂
Retry the matches at a 90-degree angle. Only the tip will ignite. And didn't they have some type of stove or flameless heater? Military people wouldn't be carrying your stove or pots.
That's if you eat the gum that comes with the MRE. The gum is supposed to help sustain that during long hikes. Unless they changed it after a couple years?
Likes Biscuit Brown? Are you insane?? The best thing is the Hot Chocolate, although lately its hard to find normal as they seem to have replaced them all with mint or orange ughhh
Do you like the candle? :)
Let me watch the video first bro 💀
lmao
Yes it was a great idea
amazing candle
Eat bahrini or suadi arabioan mre pls :)

Imma be honest i thought something completely different when he said «We have powdered coke in this package»
LOL
True was not expecting that
Hehehehe
Lol i was whatshing that part

Just letting watchers of this video know that it is very important to have a positive identification before consuming wild mushrooms. All mushrooms are edible but some only once!
The wrong mushroom will kill you
I was thinking the same thing... He should have made a warning or at least identify it on video
I agree
He's just letting nature take its course 😂
the slippery jacks he got in this video are really hard to mistake for anything else though. good beginner mushroom.
Very dangerous indeed!
I really love that bushcraft candle design. I have never seen any camping/outdoors UA-camrs make something like that. It's very creative.
The hot chocolate;
Save a bit of it (roughly a spork full) and boil your muesli. After the muesli is done, get the hot chocolate mix and add it to the muesli.
Trust me with this.
What ever happened to the oatmeal block ? 😉
It made a great sludge when mixed with the hot chocolate.
I ate them as is. Great pocket scran.
Facts. I always used to put my rolled oats into the chocolate, it was the best.
@@ChoppyChof Better than the "Biscuits Brown for cheese" the cheese in a tin. 😂 and I still ate it hahaha.
You should have tried the UK ration packs in the 70s and 80s, these new packs are fine dining in comparison !!
Babies heads and screech!
@@Section20Ul screech snorting for shits and giggles, then comes the compo anaconda. Still miss the oatmeal blocks
Big time! Remember bacon burgers and of course canned beef killed before you were born 😂
All good tucker, though!
It's maybe not a popular opinion, but I quite liked rat packs in the 80s, bacon burger, bacon grill and tinned sausages in the 10 Man boxes. 😜
Really like how you discover this pack of MRE in the forrest （where you put it 30s ago） 🤣
it was a joke, that shit passed over your head didnt it? 😆
For authenticity, you should be using an esbit burner with hexamine or fire dragon.
When you said "powered coke" .. the drink wasn't the first thing that came to my mind
Those dry fruit would of been made with a lyophilization process. Freeze dried, it involves freezing the product then lower pressure, then remove the ice with sublimation so the water is removed without becoming water on the product

Mix the muesli 🥣with the powdered cocoa mix☕ to change the cereal to a sweet chocolate flavored cereal.😋
So many people look at me weird when I say this but it’s the best tip ever. So many early mornings in the rain saved with chocolate museli
yummy

I loved that beginning "where we had placed it 30 seconds earlier."
And the part with the match
Should have used the water that you boiled the mushrooms in. That was a good stock for the chili.
By watching all of such videos I happen to make a conclusion that "we are waiting for a situation to arise to use such pre packed foods" crazy but cool 🙆
Huh? They've had these for years, and they make them for the military and for natural disasters.

you can boil all these retort pouches in water and use the water for hot brews afterwards
I used to always add half the hot choclate to the porridge and half as a drink. makes breakfast taste better
These videos always make me hungry!

What kind of mushroom was that? How did the Coke taste? Was the magic separator expensive?
the candle was ingeneous!
Well Done presented in the style of the American late 50s - 60s TV travelogues
Very kind review. Horrid food usually comes out of those retort packs, but he said the food wasn't bad.
I love these videos they just have a relaxing vibe to them
Finally new video :D
Best of luck for 2 million🥳

Just curious, but I've been watching your previous videos very epic :), but your voice sounds so much different in the older ones to now?
You’re right. I go back five years and he does sound different.

LOVE UR VIDEOS
the matches were covered in wax to stop rain from ruining the strike, just rub the wax off before striking
Just discovered, will watch again! Next time, use the water from the mushrooms in the main dish or one of the other things!
Hot Chocolate is GOLD can be used for High Level NEGOTIATIONS in the field.

I love the candle
Magic separater stick was star of the show ✨️
Candle was so cool
I preferd the 1977 ration packs with tins and tubes of butter and tubes of jam
Those waterproof matches need the end striking, not the sides
I love how u call it tasty instead of yummy of good
I hope that the video was longer and had more details 😊

It’s boil in the bag you heat it and eat in the pouch saving you on wasting water on your mug or pots.
You need to get a modern RAF ration pack. That's where the good stuff is
Biscuits brown are for lunch, Biscuits fruit are the bad boys.
Youre supposed to use the cheese spread on the crackers. Watch Wallace and Gromit to understand why
Ah yes. That was a grand day out.

Man has no idea what Biscuits Brown do to you!
I am still holding out for crunchy peanut butter!
The matches remind me of the surper strawberry pocky sticks from the candy store.
I still miss biscuits brown and meat paste washed down with screech.
Finally 💯 they are crush and cooked with sugar [the fruit candies].
What species of mushrooms were those?
TIS IS EPIC

You chose the vegetarian ration pack lol. In the British Army we eat everything out of the mylar pack

Hey, how did you know the mushrooms were safe?
Boil in the bag.
Retry the matches at a 90-degree angle. Only the tip will ignite. And didn't they have some type of stove or flameless heater? Military people wouldn't be carrying your stove or pots.
see the thumb nail, immediately think, is the cat part of the ration pack ?
how does your body feel after one of these days since MREs usually have antidiarrheals
That's if you eat the gum that comes with the MRE. The gum is supposed to help sustain that during long hikes. Unless they changed it after a couple years?
I used these on my d of e silver expedition and they’re surprisingly good, except the Mac and cheese which was weird
