    A buddy at work is in the National Guard, a food prep specialist or whatever they call a cook/chef. He brought a few MREs back from a month long deployment and gave them to a few people (I got menu 20 Italian sausage, pepper and onion in marinara sauce)
    I was so surprised when I said "let's get this out onto a tray, nice 'mkay" seriously THREE other people at work knew exactly where the reference came from!
    It made me super happy! Kinda like this video.

    This video reminded me of a interesting fact about Kit Kats: while they are globally manufactured by Nestle, in the US they're manufactured by a subsidiary of the Hershey Company, due to a prior licencing agreement between them and the original manufacturer Rowntree's in the 1970's before the latter was acquired by Nestle. This means that the US is the only country that doesn't have the Nestle label on any of its Kit Kat packaging.

    Fond memories of US Army MREs when I served from '88-92. We had no ration heaters, so I clamped the pouches to my M901 exhaust with vice grips. We always brought cases of Ramen noodles to make even heartier meals in the field.

    That was such a pleasant viewing as always Steve, I love your descriptions of all of the tastes of the various parts of the ration. And as for the ration itself, it looks decedent, really good foresight from the Canadians to make such a well rounded, well put together ration. If it was me who received this, I would have been happy with every part of it and finished the whole thing, which says a lot as I'm a bit picky usually. Please keep it up, thanks a lot for the video once again!

    Excellent video. First time that I’ve watched your channel (and now subscribed 👍). I noticed it was about IMPs and had to see what improvements were made since my days with the Canadian Infantry from ‘79 to ‘87.
    When I first enlisted in 1979 we were issued the canned IRPs. 🤮 I seem to recall a horrid concoction called Vienna Sausage, I believe. Thankfully the “boil in foil” IMPs came out about a year later and we loved them (my faves were chilli and turkey stew). During training exercises with American units at Camp Grayling later that year they begged us to swap with them because they were still getting canned rations (I think MREs then came out a year or so later).
    Looking forward to watching more of your videos. ✌️

Peach juice was the typical "brought in" beverage of choice, not a favorite, bad mistake in those years. Now, tasty and full cunsumption is the goal. This MRE is a step above. I love it.... with Ketchup!!!! Thanks Stevo. #Blessed
