Hey there, everyone! Gundog4314 sent me a surprise package of goodies, so this video starts with the unboxing.
And then I review one of the box's contents, which is a JSDF 1 (Japanese Self Defense Forces) Ration!
This one was a real treat - and it was nice being able to eat something normal (and fresh) this time!
Thanks so much gundog4314, and thank you all for watching and subscribing. I hope you enjoy the video, and I will be coming back with something new (or old!).

LET'S GET THIS OUT ONTO A TRAY, NICE™
NICE HISS™
I'LL BE COMING BACK AT YOU WITH SOMETHING NEW OR OLD, ALRIGHT COOL SEE YA™
Our buddy laughing man did the translations, he's a great dude. For a ration with not a lot of stuff in it it is very nice and one of my favorites. Cheers!
+gundog4314
Could you please ask him if he likes Ghost in the Shell? And when he says yes, say "I'm in your ghost". Trust me.
Dude... why are you using 2 different kinds of tapes on the paper that you sticked on the pack :P
so far I think JSDF has the best ration...
Yiwan Ye I'd have to agree it looks amazing xD
I think the only ones that would compare would have to be the full day rations, cuz they have LOTS of extra shit (like candy :D)
gundog4314 Okay, your post is a year old, but I love your thumbnail! LOL!
Suddenly I understand how my 4 year old niece can sit and watch other people unbox toys.
It varies on the person who does the unboxing. Some people ramble on and don't really do much, while others like Steve1989 here are really informative on the subject matter and expressive in his observations. Which makes it much, much more entertaining.
A.A.-ron yoooo
my little brother does the same thing...
you just made that connection for me lol
A.A.-ron Don't worry I thought the same about my son watching Thomas the Tank Engine unboxing and testing...
wow
yes, you are both brain damaged. good job uncovering the mystery.
I trained with JSDF in 86, cold weather, mountain warfare, Hakaido. Back then each Japanese soldier was given a daily ration of sake, which they heated on a camp stove. We had a great time training with those guys, and drinking all of their sake LOL!!!
I love how all the MRE folks know each other on UA-cam.
Indeed, It's a community!
@@guitargeorge1874 hoohoohoo
But Steve is the best! He is the Michael Angelo of the MRE reviewers!
@@rodrigogoncalves6165 I agree.
@@rodrigogoncalves6165 Your comment has a nice hiss. Let's get it out onto a tray.
Steve's genuine happiness when he gets a package of strange food sent to him is so pure, bless his lil self :3
Kizzy Hearts just found this dudes channel. It’s up there with ReviewBrah’s
So it had furikake Foo ree kaw ke. Seaweed, sesame seeds, and spices.
Lil? His elbow goes up to your head
@@drmayeda1930 foo ree kaw kee
simplicity is divinity ♾️🤟
Just to mention, Furikake is mainly sprinkled on plane rice and it is a some kind of spice, but it's not like salt and pepper. So it is kinda unusual for me, Japanese to put that pouch and Furikake at same time. We eat that pouch as side dish not as sauce for rice. However, JSDF might put that pouch on rice and eat it for sake of saving time. Sorry for weird English.
それな。ま〜でもどっちでも美味そうだからいいんじゃない？
yhea i normal used the egg pounder one for my rice when i eat up all the meat or veggie or fish :) or sometime just eat it when there still hot rice , the egg one are the best :)

Your English is fine, no need to worry.
I bet your English is 1,000,000 times better than my Japanese. Thanks for the info!

Tooth picker on that spoon is awesome idea
+Steve1989 MREinfo XD you are big fan in Korea.
Which makes me feel great
Cuz im korean
Tooth picker????😂😂😂😂💀 it's a spork dude,..."( Fork+Spoon )
@@stealthybeats6375 01:50
I have to respect a guy who gets excited over a plastic spoon ...
+Steve1989 MREinfo
The British army called them 'racing spoons'
They would burn a hole in the plastic and attach to their webbing with paracord. Voila! instantly you have a sample spoon and can run around sampling the guys' cookin ....
I don't know if anyone mentioned it or not but the spike in the spoon I think is a toothpick (sorry if I missed that being mentioned in the video, if it was).
I like the reviews that are right around 10-15 minutes in length. they're just the perfect length because that's just about how long it takes me to eat my meals while watching these.
"Get to try out this nice spork"
Never thought I would ever hear anyone say that. A Spork has characteristics of both fork and spoon, but the effective function of neither.
I have metal ones at home that are brilliant, work great as a fork but hold as much food as a spoon. Love them.
This food is better than what I eat most of the time.
+Dom “Amsterdom” Boileau Yeah, way better than what I could ever cook..
Ha, ha.. nope it's pretty bad, Steve 1989! Not even trying to be modest.. :D Btw, great pronunciation on the Japanese words, I have a Japanese mother and couldn't do it without getting tongue tied. :D
+Dom “Amsterdom” Boileau Can confirm. I used to eat those rice packets, they're available in Japanese supermarkets. Best rice I've ever had.
I am very much into pure foods, I aint a health freak but I tend to live off simple stuff I done my self like pasta with homemade tomato sauce, rather then ready meals I dont trust as they full of junk but for some reason I love watching these MRE videos and thats coming from a girl who's never even tried spam.

steve is such a sweetheart, you can just tell
Or a crazy badass stone cold killer
My God, he sounds a lot more dorky than in his later videos, and I love it.
Furikake seasoning goes directly on top of the rice, not on the entree. When eaten with an entree, just a small amount of furikake typically is sprinkled. However, Furikake can be poured in larger amounts on top of broiled rice if there is no entree. This makes eating plain, white broiled rice palatable. I tried it out and it works. It's similar in concept to Indian People spicing their rice with curry spice to make white rice palatable.
The suspense of the heating bag in action! O__O

I got a Bob Ross vibe when you were like "look at that chicken, it looks good, doesn't it?"
"Last MRE video....okay one more....and another" repeat.

You sir are the Bob Ross of MRE reviews. I found your videos by chance and have enjoyed them a lot. Your passion is admirable.
The furikkake gets sprinkled directly on the rice, not on the entree. A Japanese physician invented furikkake at the beginning of the 20th century to provide nutrients to his patients as an additive seasoning to broiled, white rice.
im so fascinated by the Japanese flameless ration heater. seems like it would heat food hotter and more consistently than the American ones.
+News Cartridge There are American MREs with a heat pouch that you just add water to.
Dream I'm very aware and I've used them myself but they're nothing like the Japanese heaters.
News Cartridge They do pretty much everything better :V
Meanwhile the Brits still use Hexamine.
+Hello there. S A V A G E. Dank meme bruh
You can hear the excitement in his voice and its incredibly contagious
is it just me,or does this have hints of Bob Ross?
ASMR?
I thought that too... Little fluffy mre's
it's all in the sounds and the voice
Any spoilt MRE foods are just happy accidents.
no i thought so too. He's got the same relaxing tone.
I love Steve's childish enthusiasm for the package - always makes me laugh.
hay man, this is big doings
I'm happy for you that you're having the opportunity to eat food produced within the decade for once I can hear the excitement in your voice, Probably from not having to play botulism roulette , though the old ration packs are so damn fun to see and a favorite, I like all the reviews, congratz man, Keep up the great work!
😂🤣 very true 😋
" Let's get that out on this rice" Nice!
This channel needs to be renamed to "MRE Therapy"
9:28 says Okakagoma, essentially furikake with sesame seeds and katsuobushi (bonito flakes) and shoyu (soy sauce)
Watching this made my rice and fish dinner so much more appetizing. Great work Steve!
Your videos are fucking awesome. Weirdly addictive.
wow this looks delicious! By the way, once the camera is off, do you savagely finish all the meals you review? That's what I'd do :D
Waching this 6 years later , still gives you the same feeling ! 😁
You gotta love a guy who gets excited by a spoon. I would love it if he were on space station reviewing astronaut food. Would be most epic broadcast ever. "Let's get this floating in zero gravity - nice!"
That's cool that these food ration guys will send each other rations ...so awesome they have each other's back..
I've already watched all his videos but I just love watching them they remind me of unintentional AMSR.
step by step going through all steves videos agaim. this one looks tasty.
I love Japanese foods, drinks, and treats. I would love to try that MRE. It looked so good.
I’m so jealous
everytime i hear him say "JSDF 1" im waiting to see the SDF 1 from Robotech come into view..

"Its huge it goes all the way up to your elbow, or my elbow, I dont know about you. It might go up to your head"
Awesome Review Steve that ration heater was huge.
That was one awesome heater.. Turbo powered! :D
Love your enthusiasm and detail I've been into MREs since I was a kid eating the old corned beef hash for my desert Storm uncle.
Does it help Steve if you watch the Ads?
yes he doesnt get paid for people using adblock
We all must help and support Steve
Do you know what year these rations were made? Love your videos. I'm a vet from the Vietnam era and I remember the rations we had. I liked them. I liked all Army food! =)
Your mother must have been a terrible cook lol
A Scottish youtuber, called Big Clive, is fascinated by the FRH. He's an electrical guy mainly, but occasionally will do something batshit crazy. Since he found out that most of the gas given off by an FRH was Hydrogen, he's taken to proving this. With a touch of flame. The explosion is quite loud, I can report.
That heater is amazing...I'm always amazed how these things work...
I love his reaction, also love his knives and how sharp he keeps them!!!
I went to all of the people that you said to subscribe to and I looked at all the videos but sadly about half have stopped making videos as of 6 months ago. Hopefully we see some more from them but thanks for letting me know about other people that do these.
People in Japan, at least on the air force bases pronounce it "jasdaf" and don't say the individual letters
I believe that Foo-Ree-Ka-Kay (Furikake) to contain bonito. Bonito is boiled mackerel/tuna that is smoked/dried, molded, cleaned, and shaven into flakes. I feel like that fits that rich fishy/meaty taste you described in the seasoning. I love that stuff. It's one of the most common Japanese ingredients. That fish also looks a bit like mackerel.
japanese MRE are fucking looks delicious im so hungry!! Maybe because here in philippines we are used to eat fuds with rice.
hahaha nakakapang laway ung pagkaen
galing naman bobo :D
What are fuds?
“Awh man is that a heater?!” I love how excited you are with these
I enjoy your reviews so much. Whenever there is nothing to watch or do , i find myself watching one of your videos!
That Japanese MRE was very impressive indeed!
That's NICE of him to give that to you
Awesome to see all these uploads today! Nice job as always Steve!
Stack rice halves side by side and arrange side dishes in the empty space. Sprinkle furikake on top of the rice.
That looks delicious! If I had that furikake I'd put it on everything.
I have a shaker jar of furikake in my spice cabinet. I use it when I make spam musubi. If you've never had spam musubi, it is AWESOME.
I wonder if there's some Japanese food scientist responsible for these things watching these videos and being happy someone appreciates the hard work that goes into them.
that looked absolutely delicious.
I've never seen Steve so excited
Why am i only discovering how awesome and relaxing these ration pack videos are.
Anybody else triggered because he didn't say "nice" when he plated the MRE?
I've been watching each of his videos, and won't flip early to the next one till I hear "nice".
Yesss
yes
;)
6:30
Can buy rice in packets like that in Japanese convenience stores. Don't know what the soldiers do in the field, but in general Japanese usually eat rice on it's own, not with everything dumped on top.
The purple pack does say "Furikake" in the letters that are different colors. To the right of that in black writing it says "Otonano" which I think means for adults. Lately a lot of foods in Japan are advertised as having "adult taste". Writing in yellow says "Okakagoma". "Goma" is sesame seeds.
Wish I knew about this channel years ago but I'm happy I found it
you giving shout outs at the end of the video like a underground mix tape from the 90s hahaha love it
Oj god this is the first time ive heard him being so happy about getting an mre its kinda cursed bc all i can think of is those cartoon va's doing cheerful emotions this way 😭
Finally seen a ration that does not have any thing off in it. Nice to see that you were able to eat something that was of good quality.
Now to see an Aussie 24 hr pack or a New Zealand one that is fairly new.
Still like all the others that you have done as well
Wow...that chicken and white rice with the furikake looked absolutely delicious
Great stuff Steve!
I honestly usually have like zero interest in military stuff but Im quite the sucker for watching food stuff and youre one entertaining man, always a pleasure to watch your vids :)
Dude I traded so many MRE’s while in japan to have their MRE’s it was so refreshing hahaah ! Memories !
I make furikake with the leftover bonito flakes and seaweed from making dashi. Dry it and crumble it. It’s better with some sesame if you have some.
That spoon is really cool it even has a toothpick at the end that you can break off in case all of you don’t know what that was on the end of the spoon
I had one of these, yes, by far one of the best rations i've had.
You notice that Red Chinese, Japanese, and Korean MREs go way out of their way to include a generous amount of white rice. The Chinese MRE provides fried rice and not in the same quantities as white rice in Japanese and Korean MREs. For northeast Asians, eating white rice daily is sacred. Same goes for Southeast Asians and Filipinos. Going a day without eating a generous portion of white rice is unthinkable. The European counterpart is France where eating white bread several times daily is sacred. The French did not allow the potato to mostly replace bread as in Germany.
It was always the desire of the Asian common people to eat as much white rice as their hearts desired but this was frequently not the case throughout history. Landlord nobles and aristocrats took most of the rice crop as taxes. Droughts and floods ruined rice crops frequently in China. Only Thailand seemed fortunate enough to enjoy stable rainfall throughout the year, making that country a perennial exporter of rice. In feudal Japan it could get really bad to the point where a landlord daimyo took all the rice crop of his peasant tenant farmers as taxes, leaving them with little to eat or what they could glean from little gardens. That was just as bad as in 19th century Ireland where absentee English landlords took all of the wheat crop of their Irish tenant farmers as rent, forcing them to rely on potatoes for food.
The decades of post-WW2 continual peace, even if unstable, in Asia combined with the Green Revolution in agriculture allowed for bountiful rice crops throughout Asia. We have to discount the horrendous, man-made famine in southern Red China, circa 1959-62, caused by the Marxist government's greedy confiscation of rice crops who let the excess rice crops rot in government warehouses, leading to the death of some 20 million Chinese citizens. With that out of the way, Asia enjoyed a surplus boom in rice production, thanks to the converging positive factors of capitalism, some democracy, advanced rice farming techniques, better pesticides, relatively stable weather climate. The economies of countries like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand, began to grow and grow prosperous. By the 1970s the Japanese People were enjoying the dream of eating as much white rice as they wanted, something not thought possible unless you were in Heaven. This occurred in the 1980s for South Korea. Thailand always had great rice crop harvests and it only got bigger and better.
Today in 2023, you see videos on UA-cam of restaurants, eateries, mom-and-pop restaurants, food stalls, in South Korea and Japan where the citizens are gobbling up huge quantities of meat and rice, a vision that was once only possible with the royal court, the nobility, high-ranking, well-paid government magistrate officials, and wealthy merchants.
Poetic
Easily the best MRE that I have ever seen
this channel is actually very ASMR for me......the crinkling of the packaging is really good
The furikake you got from gundog was Bonito sesame seed flavor. The packet you kept referring as seasoning is also furikake.
Btw, Steve, I think saury IS mackerel.
Sanma, is called pike mackerel or pacific saury in English, it is a small fish and very seasonal in Japan.
I know this video is an older one but I wanted to say thank you for sharing the difference between cultures around the entire world I really love your videos "nice" thanks for sharing
i know its old but with this and the jsdf 2 video its nice to see steve eat some straight up nice food once in a while
While at Fort Benning School for Boys, I had some tins of smoked octopus to supplement my MREs.
What would really impress me however would be a JSDF ration of sushi (yellow tail, octopus, and squid) or shrimp tempura.
From what I understand, Japanese school box lunches are better than in the USA.
Steve got so excited at opening a box of mystery MREs that his Universal Translator short-circuited. 😂
You had me at "fish-bacon"! Awesome dude
Plastic spoon with a built-in toothpick!. That's some fine ingenuity right there.
I came to Japan just today on a trip and guess what? Japanese ration videos! Thanks!
I'm surprised that rations don't make use of tofu. It is so light when dried, but heavy went wet. Plus they have a lot of calories/protein. Maybe in the future!
'Word. It would be a fine addition, to most any Asian-themed entree :) !
+Steve1989 MREinfo Maybe, you'd prefer seiten (sp?) ?
lmfao please dont eat something your alergic too
I think that seasoning may have been dried bonito flakes. It's like an essence of dried fish that adds flavour to a lot of Japanese broths and cooking.
Love your channel man!!!! I love that you show us everything about every countrys mres and how good/bad they are. Thank you. : )
WOAHHHHH steve WITHOUT THE NUANCES this is wild like seeing my father in leather tights
Steve seems extra enthusiastic for this particular review. Love it
That first main course looks better than many ready meals I see in the local market, i'd love to try them!
Started scrolling down the comments looking for people who were also mad he didn’t do his famous “nice” I strive for that in your videos Steve lol
Steve, if you like Furikake the next time you go to an asian grocery store, look for it there. They sell it in small clear bottles with a variety of flavors. You can eat that stuff with just some fresh rice and its the bomb.
I am really enjoying your videos. I find it interesting to see what different cultures consider important to put into a ration package.
Wow they literally sell those exact rice packages at my local store, just with a label on the plastic here in NY
one of the rare instances in which MRE food really looks appetizing
Where can I find a JSDF 1? I can't seem to find one on eBay or MRE sale sites. I'm kinda a huge fan of rice alone, and I do like mixing it up a little. This ration has got me curious on how it tastes, you describe it okay, but nothing is better than trying it yourself
Furikake is supposed to go on the rice first :)
Steve, just use one of those office, steel butterfly clips to close your FRH bags.
