    The rice might very well serve as a moisture deterrent. It's also done to salt shakers sometimes, the dried rice will absorb ambient moisture before the packaging can.

    • @rak8095
      @rak8095 2 роки тому +7

      I don't think so. Since all the items inside were hermetically sealed in plastic and therefore protected against moisture there would be no need to have loose rice inside as a dessicant. Also, since the one package contained furikake (seasoning with seaweed) which is normally sprinkled on cooked rice before eating, the rice was meant to be eaten with the furikake. I just don't know why the rice was loose but since the box was only tied shut it might have been tampered with.

    One of friends did a tour with the US Army back in the 1970's (long before the current regime running North Korea). So one day they were doing patrols south of the DMZ looking for infiltrators from North Korea. They came upon a badly hidden cache. They called in assistance and a South Korean Patrol group showed up. After verifying each others identities (North Koreans had been using South Korean Military ID's and uniforms.) they checked out the area. They didn't find anybody. By that time EOD had located the cache they'd found and they verified it wasn't booby trapped. The North Koreans are usually never that careless. It was several cases of rations, ammo, and some other stuff (he wouldn't say what the other stuff was.). The South Koreans were curious about the Rations and after the stuff was x-rayed and tested they checked it out. They weren't impressed. The South Korean Officer called it low quality food that he wouldn't feed to a dog. That's a bad insult in Korea. I guess they don't believe in giving their troops decent food, just edible enough to survive on. This was before the big droughts and exhausted farms that currently prevail in North Korea. Even when they had plenty of food they didn't seem to put a lot of effort into troop rations.

      They're also supposed to be filtered once the appropriate time for soaking has passed (anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes, depending on the herb and tea usage), but I guess that in field there wouldn't be much chance of that - just scoop the junk weed out of your cup and drink the liquid.

      I've tried it both ways.- putting it on after is better I think (hence 'kake'). More texture and the taste is stonger. If you cook it, the flavor diffuses into the rice. It makes the taste more even in every bite, but also much less intense. And the texture turns to mush.

    In case anyone is wondering, yes, this is a joke. It is an April Fools. There are no such thing as NK MRE's. They do not have the infrastructure for such things. You're lucky to receive to the base necessities for existence in that nation (even in combat conditions) let alone a gourmet MRE.

      Not disagreeing that DPRK citizens live a meager existence and go without a lot of necessities, including access to modern healthcare and stable food infrastructure. But I am certain DPRK soldiers are given rations. If there is one group the DPRK looks after, it's their soldiers, and rations are integral to making sure soldiers can perform in combat as well as keeping them loyal and willing to fight. If DPRK soldiers stationed on the border witnessed South Korean and NATO soldiers eating well while they are given nothing, it would only encourage defection as food is important to all people. If the people in North Korea are starving, the soldiers will always be the last to starve, well, last before DPRK Juche party members and the Kim family. If the soldiers starve, they pose a threat to the leadership. The last thing the Kim dynasty wants is a coup. Though I would not be surprised if DPRK didn't produce it's own rations and just gave their soldiers relabeled Chinese rations.

North Korea is so strange and known for producing meth and nuclear bombs while being dirt poor. It seems to be a Russia and China's little pawn as a buffer deterrent keeping US troops from camping out on their borders to one day stage an all out hostile invasion of a final showdown throw down. As have happened in the repeating history, Eastern Europe, Baltic, and Balkans bloodlands are gamed again except this time it's the US and some NATO like Polish troops to go in guns blazing instead of Germany. War is ugly with truth being it's first casualty each time the great troubles return.
