For the "cook in pot with boiling water for 5 minutes" part of it, its mainly for winter where these would be cooked in a pot on a stove inside the 10 man winter tent when we are out in the field :) they usually give separate chemical heaters when you grab these!
@@MeAncient They give you Hexi tabs and your canteen cup comes with a stand. Put the Hexi tabs under your canteen and cup and heat. For quick heat I used 2 Hexi tabs
Canadian rations are so good, but I love the stories you share more than anything. Reminds me of sitting with my WWII Vet grandfather and just letting him talk about when he was in North Africa and Italy. Thank you for sharing with us!
Their soldiers are issued the FRHs separately, they are of similar design to the US ones, but they are a bit wider and tend to work better... One of my top 3 of the Canadian menus. Vlad sent you a winner!!
This white coating on the chocolate does not make it unfit for consumption, it is simply cocoa butter that has separated due to temperature changes. I say it, I am a confectioner by profession :)
Yep👍, Nothing wrong with blooming. I don't think I've had ration chocolate that wasn't bloomed, actually🤔.. (my family has owned a chocolate company since 1938😁)
Back in the 80's we had electric boiling vessels in our tanks, AVGP's etc. and we just threw the pouches in to heat. Every vehicle had a Coleman camp stove and pots for cooking fresh rations or boil in the foil pouches. The flameless ration heaters came in later but are always issued with the rations.
Decent looking ration pack.....I remember years and years ago my dad was in the 🇬🇧 army he used to always bring a load of ration packs home when he'd been on exercise and I'd be scanning the different packets of food trying them out.
That nescafe coffee is my favorite of the instant type coffee. Its the type we take with us camping/hiking as its light and still tastes like coffee. Great coffee? No but decent coffee? yes. And out on a hike sitting down and whipping up a hot coffee it tastes incredible lol. All that fresh air appetite 😋
Every time I have been in the field in the CAF we usually are served hot meals from the mess hall twice a day with a “box lunch” at noon. The box lunch is usually made up by a catering company that mass produces sandwiches with little packets of condiments, snacks, apples, and 2 juice boxes. The IMPs you’re having in the video were also given to us at the same time we had hot lunches from the mess (which were delivered in hay boxes by people generally from your trade on who are tasked out to help with courses) and usually we would rip the IMPs down and stuff them in our day bags and cargo pockets for the things we wanted to have while doing various exercises.
The warmed date square with the thick vanilla drink poured over it is my single favorite ration dessert. The same combo comes in the Shepherds Pie meal. Awesome review, thank you! -Zed
That whole ration looked really good. That was a really nice piece of meat, it just fell apart. The hot date seemed pretty good too. It was pretty cool that there were 2 orange drinks, one to add to the vanilla shake to make the dreamsickle and one to just have as orange juice. Your story today made me smile ;) Great review :)
I am enjoying your stories and enthusiasm for the MRE. I am a civilian but have tried my share of MRE, the vegetarian ones are pretty awesome. Keep up the great content!
normally with the tab you would pull on it from the outside of the bag instead of the inside where you pulled it. If you pulled it from the outside you could reseal it for later
All our LAV 3/6 (what the striker was based on) have a cooker boiler unit in the back... you load everyones meals in and it boils up for the who vehicle crew. We have seperate heater bags... but they dont work for shit in -40 .. when dismounted from our vehicles . we use colman stoves with presure cookers to heat rations in winter... aka most of the year. Its part of are 10 man tent groups ( tobogins, pulled by two men in traces and a third pushing on the sled handle)
"I don't think that you should eat anymore of those"! LOL!! What a great line to the sweet thief, a.k.a., Asa, LOL!! Looks like a great meal. That vanilla shake with the orange drink, great combo. I was expecting for a less than enthusiastic response to the hamburger bun. I've seen an bush craft guy that I watch, that always throws them out, saying they are pretty much inedible. I'm glad that it didn't take away from that great main course. Great and entertaining video, as usual. Keep 'em coming. God bless.
Fantastic! Was in the Army in Canada for a year and Cadets for 7 years, We ate a LOT of rations, in the 90's and 2000's they put way too many accessories in them and it took a long time for HQ to realize we don't want 10-20 little packets of things we don't need, there was soooo much extra stuff it got crazy trying to break down rations before going into the field, Officers would be yelling at everyone to hurry up, and all the accessories always got left in the trash bin, so they did check the trash like the US and use that to decide lol.
FYI, in Canada they're called Individual Meal Packs (IMP). They can also be heated using flameless ration heaters, which are issued separately. You gotta try the poutine!
So that is certainly one of the new MREs. Our older ones were in a white foil pack and very traditional dishes. The new ones should have some heater packs not in the pack but in the case. Traditionally you may have a Coleman stove with your group for water so you could heat up water for rations and for cleaning yourself up. It’s funny your “US” canteen is the same one I was issued back in the day but they took away our canteen cups and mess tins and replaced them with MelMac. It’s great you tasking all the ration packs. I always loved trying something different but I was with transport so we usually had the flying kitchen with us. Take care
This is my favorite ration in the world. It is outstanding!! The Canadian IMP is top notch. The Canadian milatary is issued a mess kit or FRH separately. It's pretty easy :) and gosh this meal.makes me want another. The demi glaze is also Delicious 😋
Awesome review sir, the date square I wouldn’t have heated but that’s likely why it went dark. Normally the oatmeal crust is a nice golden colour and has a nice chew. Glad you got to enjoy this one, these IMP’s are really hard to get your hands on even here in Canada. Take care and all the best
That brisket looks *good* . The nuts look interesting too, never had nuts with maple sugar before. The 'hot dates' I don't think I'd like, never been a fan of warm fruit, but at least we get the return of the Dreamsicle. As always, thanks for the video.
Canadian Amoured Vehicles have an electric boiling vessel to boil water like our British cousins. Each section usually has a stove and pots to heat boiling water. This also goes back to our British cousins to boil water. A lot of us also carried small one burner stoves to boil water for coffee or tea...
Bonus alert: We add two new words to our vocabulary, libre. I have no words, a meal that a hungry person will look forward to. Thank you for presenting.
@@turnip5359 Down here in SoCal, "gratis" prevails, often in a Mexican accent -- faintly Speedy Gonzales -- as it's the Spanish for _no charge._ Yeah, spread it around. Now, having schoolboy French, I wouldn't go on about any "pain hamburger," because I'm proud of my français. (Algorithm, quit trying to tell me to type François. )
@@JS-wp4gsI still shudder at the vegan mushroom egg breakfast IMP 😂 Nobody wanted those! 😳 Meanwhile, I got a stash of butter chicken IMP in my top kitchen cupboard stashed away 😅
Very traditional deserts in Canada: butter tarts, date squares and Nanaimo bars, depending which part of Canada you're from. It's a comfort food, a taste of home. I prefer date squares and butter tarts, just sayin'.
One question I've wondered, with the hot beverages etc. How do you heat up the water in the field? Small fire? Is the flame less heater more of a convenience then tactical thing? Thanks, just a curious guy. Cheers
The Canadian army is very oriented to winter training and cold weather ops. As a result we carry Coleman stoves and pots or pressure cookers at every Section (you say, "Squad") level. In winter, if you don't have water you simply melt snow. Our crew served vehicles have boiling vessels that hook up to the 24 volt vehicle electrics. Always hot water for coffee or heating rations. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_vessel
Canada MRE'S are hella good. Canada usually hand out the ration heaters vs packing it in the package itself. McDonald's Trip, it's the simple things in life we remember the most much of the time. I can remember doing this in my last class of the day in high school. Only it was Burger King lol
The compressed towelette is for hygiene clean your pits, and your private areas. Then take it to the bathroom to wash your rear tooter after disposal of yesterdays meals. However in the Canadian forces troops normally carry their own toilet paper.
The Canadian army uses naphtha Coleman stoves. No need to eat cold food. I recall setting one up in Fort Drum in front of the Americans. Apparently they weren’t allowed such things. I guess the US Army thought too many fires would be started or something.
I can clear up the Mars Bar issue here. In the US that would be called a Milky Way. What the rest of the world calls a Milky Way is a 3 Musketeers in the US, and the US version of the Mars Bar did have almonds.
Also learnt from some guys in the Canadian military that a lot of the time they don’t have the time to heat it so they will just eat it cold! Unless they can heat it then they will
My wife will occasionally make me a peanut butter and banana sandwich or peanut butter and crackers for my first break at work but will mix real maple syrup with the peanut butter. It's delicious together. I hope you guys are having a good fall weekend. Ace Quote of the Day, "It doesn't taste as unrighteous as I thought it would taste..." 🤣
Young Canadian vet here…the heaters usually come with IMPs (what we call MREs), not sure why yours didn’t? Perhaps a customs issue? Anyway, still got a few years old BUTTER CHICKEN IMPs in my kitchen top cupboard 😂 maybe I should send it to you guys 😂
I didn't get a full MRE....it was parts and pieces sent to me by a subscriber here in the States. I'd be willing to pay you for a Canadian MRE if we could get it here in good shape through US Customs. They take all the good stuff out when shipping from out of the USA. At least that 's been my experience about 90% of the time. TFW
The coating on the Mars bar is called "bloom". It happens when chocolate gets old or is exposed to heat. The fats in the chocolate separate from the chocolate and form a layer on the outside. It's not harmful.

Would have been crusader cup plus kexy beforehand?
@@MeAncient They give you Hexi tabs and your canteen cup comes with a stand. Put the Hexi tabs under your canteen and cup and heat. For quick heat I used 2 Hexi tabs
We use Coleman stoves or the mountain stove for heating water, but also keep a couple extra MRE heaters in our ruck
