Nathan I love your vids. What is the name of your translator app? I want that in my life.
You don’t know how to use those maches😂😂. While what you did was ok, i can definitely see the struggle. You fold the flap over and pinch the match head between the fire strip and the flap, then pull out the match quickly. The friction will lit the match in one try.
wow looks nostalgic. I'm not that old to remember 40s, there were soups and tea in such packaging in 80s, I even remebered how that Geogian tea smelled, it had tobaco notes too.
the millet porridge is known as kasha in russia, it can be made of nearly any grain and it's something of a staple food over there. you can use it for nearly any meal.
Just about "Second Front" stew. Soviet soldiers called this tushonka like this, because our Western Allies were sending us stew, instead of opening the real second front in Europe for almost 2 years.
It sounds like "stew instead of real combat action help". But. Thanks brothers for your help: Aerocobra's, Shermans, powder, gasoline, etc. Let there be no more wars
.
Spacibo! Well said!
LOL Second Front is pretty clever, then. Thanks for the explanation
A true Russian
I was always sad that our countries were not friends after ww2. A difference in political ideology.
You should not think that we dislike or hate the Russian people.
I mean to be fair, the Soviets didn’t open up a second front themselves when the Germans swept through Belgium and France. Well technically they did open up a second front when they invaded Poland, but I’d say the West and East are even on that front.
I believe that 108% of the Russian canned production means that, for example, for every 100 cans of food produced in Russia, the US send 108 cans. So, maybe about 54% of the canned food in Russia at the time, or the canned rations, were American imports?
Yes, but I suspect the US tins had a higher meat content. In the UK it did (tinned spam compared to tinned meat and vegetable stew)
A note on millet ...
Millet was the main food fed to gladiators because it promoted fat .. you wanted to have a layer of fat on your gladiators so they could get slashing wounds that would not be fatal .
So if you live in a cold country millet is a great food because of the high carb burn it would give you when it metabolizes ..
The tea was just dumped in a mug of some kind and boiling water put in it.. the leaves will settle in the bottom as it cools .
As a bonus old tea leaves can be reused and since there is tannic in them the Leaves can be used as an astringent for drawing boils out, or splinters plus it can be used as a coagulant in wounds. Another thing you can use it for is as eye compresses for snow blindness...
The Russians were hard people and this “meal” would have brought tears to they eyes of most of the population at the time...
Thank you for the musik and the photo at the end. And I really appreciate how respectfully you treat all the stuff. It's not only just a thibg, it's the Memory.
FYI Lend-Lease was not a brand. It was a policy of the USA during WWII to give aid to the other allies. Aid/weapons/planes/rations would be lent or leased(and the loans would be later forgiven).
"Expiration Date: July 4th, 1950" I wouldn't have been surprised to read that
There is no date
Cold weather rations are usually around 5000 calories per day because you need more food to stay warm and do hard work in a cold climate, so saying it would last longer in a cold climate is probably wrong
I am on board.. this would have been gone easily in a day in the winter.. you could conceivably being eating this daily and still be losing weight.. I don’t know how anyone on either side survived on the western front...
I actually have a few of these I used them in my German reenacting captured food was a thing also this was a 24 hour ration in theory I kind of like the millet and the pea soup mixed the crackers I always ate with butter or jam ( I carry around a butter dish in my German impression tho I fill it with real butter but give it a margin label)
The staples of other countries are interesting. I would eat this. Nice review.
Эта каша должна готовится в пропорции 1:4. 1 часть каши и 4 части воды.
Fantastic ration. Gorgeous black tea. Great video and you did a good job researching. TY for sharing with us. Love to see these. The canned pork looks like the very same that comes in commodity's even today. I've eaten it many times as a child and an adult. That looked like a tasty meal.
U r extremely naive.It was made to demonstrate how the Soviets cared about their soldiers. I got drafted in the Soviet Army 1985-86. They fed us worse than pigs with rotten potatoes and rotten cabbage. We had rationing of food and empty shelves starting mid 1970ies. It,s a shame Herr Hitler lost😂😂😂
Glad to see another video!!, hopefully the virus hasn't hurt your ability to ship things too much
Even the sound of the packages are authentic...
It actually looks pretty good. A little salt and pepper or dare I say hot sauce and I imagine it will fill you up pretty good.
Matches back in the day didn't have the striker on the back, if I remember correctly. At least in the US.
Lend lease was the program the United States implemented to supply the Allied partners like Russia and the UK after they ran out of money. It allowed them to continue to receive equipment and supplies even after they could no longer pay with hard currency.
If you tipped all this stuff together it would make a nice big stew and you could add some wild nettle or edible weeds for greens making the whole pack feed a group of soldiers. The Russians can make a mean stew and I noted there was no salt packs or sugar in the pack.
In WW1 and after, dried lentil soup was a common food, often wrapped in old newspaper. This may have been the case in WW2 as well.
Photos and film of Red Army soldiers eating in WW2 tends to suggest that soups of one kind or other were a major part of their diet.
Wow that all looked like some cool stuff very cool of outdoor tactical to support!
Seems pretty accurately reproduced, I would imagine this rations contents would last quite awhile especially in the winter weather the Russians were fighting in a lot in the early stages of WWII lol
Awesome ration Nathan.
The cans did not have ax expiration date those days. Plus, food may be perfectly preserved inside a can after a couple of years. The moment there is an expiration date, all hell may break loose : "Hey Maxim, look at this can of crackers / cookies: They gave it to us one week from expiration date." The soldiers may have bartered among themselves the food packages well before a war: if they hated one item, say Georgian tea, a soldier may trade it for a pack of crackers or cookies with another soldier(s). An ethnic Baltic Soviet soldier may trade a pack of cookies / crackers for a can of fish (sprot fish) , canned on the Russian side of the border with Baltic countries or Baltic provinces. Why is there at least on paper such variety? Because the Soviet government was a government of planners: A planner will say something like, : "We already have enough aircrafts and artillery pieces for a war. Let's see what we can feed our multi - ethnic army, so they remember us." A Soviet made condensed milk cans won't have sugar, while a land lease can of condensed milk from England will be sweetened to have with a packet of porridge. Their local condensed milk was unsweetened. Their ww2 porridge pack had a color cartoon of a Nazi helmet being bayoneted by a Soviet soldier, as seen in another youtube video. In a real life and during war, if a few soldiers were stuck overnight in a trench with a rifle and few bullets, or elsewhere, behind enemy lines, a soldier may only be given a pack of crackers / cookies for dinner. During peace time while living in barracks in a base / camp, soldiers everywhere prefer hot meals.
The millet looks like something you could stretch scrambled eggs with.
You’re so funny. Next video I’m charging you for each time you say “inneresting “. Sounded that way. Lmao.
lol didn't even realize I was doing that, send me a bill!!!
You’re not Steve!!!!!
Jk love your videos. I’m obsessed with everything MRE, keep it up!
There’s a lot of tea in this.
I know it’s a 1 day ration, but I wonder how long the soldiers needed to make it last in practice.
Your maths are wrong, "this is about 108% of the total production of canned goods in the USSR" does not mean 100% of the canned goods in the USSR were supplied, if means that 8% more came from the US than were made in the USSR.
You know, that spice-ball you had look identical to whats sold as tea-balls in Sweden. Its kind of 50/50 on the ratio for me using it for tea or spices.
You are stepping up dude! Great video!
nice
I'm from a communisg country, our rations were the same exept that we haved better food in 80s, nothing to remember about 40s
It's not a space ball, it is a tea steep.
I'm wondering if this was used for survival for the Soviets back in the day.
The Russian people still talk about the supply's and sacrifice of the Murmansk run.
..VERY DIFFERENT M.R.E. , GOOD VID..
So good subbed!
Tea should be made with water at 90 C (194 F) and in a previously warmed vessel.
Looks great Nathan, do you know where he gets them from? i would be interested to get myself some.
Наконец-то ты попробовал нормальный чай.
lets do it correctly *uses a modern stove* love it ...though an esbit stove and mess kit would have been better just my opinion personally
All of that combined would make a killer stew!
It designed to be mixed together so everything can be eaten like a mash.
Hi!
Does anybody know from where I could make those ww2 rations for myself to be precise...
Regards, Gašper Skok
I actually purchased one of these and it came without the chocolate bar
See the food of my soldier is beutifull
( 18-03-2020 ) hi there buddy , nice to see you :)
wait, there is another steve1989. im in.
It has all that fat with the pork because of how the typically cold it for in Russia. Not surprised in the least 😂 all tho in theory you could throw all the contents into a hot skillet and fry it
Interesting gave them candy bar instead of hard candies.
Made in America too?
Tashanka is Russian for beef. Don't know if I am spelling it correctly, but it means beef.
Tushonka is a canned stewed meat, it coud be beef, pork or lamb/
Thank you, I knew it was stew meat, but I thought it was beef only.
Meant to feed more then one person at a time?
Every time he says very interesting take a drink.
Nice hiss...lol, Shout to steve1989.
I much prefer beef tushenka to pork. It's kind of a surprise to see a Soviet meal made in the United States. Probably still a little of the honeymoon after WWII, but it would have required hard currency for them to stump up in order to purchase it.
Have you tried the Twinnings 'Russian Caravans' variety? And, if so, how does it compare to this and the regular Maiskii chai in regular Russian rations?
And how does that Baton candy bar compare to the regular Ofitserskii chocolate?
Those galeti/biscuits/crackers don't appear to have changed too much over the years.
Expiration date? If the can isn't bulging then it's edible
second front what? wheres the " ending the nickname? it starts "Second Front... wheres the rest? wheres the last quotations mark? im guess its "Second Front Stew" or "Second Front Aid" in reference to the Allies opening a second front on germany. Normandie.
Great video
Why use a knife for something you could easily open with your hands
Супер обзор
Damn ! Red army boys was eatin good in ww2

I am so far behind, on , watching reviews, let alone posting! Sorry for slow reply. I do not have , smellavision, sometimes bad, sometimes , good? LOL. You know what I mean. I see, lard. Good Tushonka, made that way. The real deal. All items, look good sir. Main, sides, drinks, Etc. Peace, John. Keep up the good work Nathan. I hope, you and yours, remain safe. Vas , good soul, and, god bless. All counties, we will survive!!! Our hobby, well, does not seem , so far fetched , now,? Just saying~ John.
What app did you use to translate the russian characters ?
Which translation app do you use?
Finally!
How can one get more than 100%? It is like someone saying that I will give you a thousand percent on something when there is no more value than a 100%.
I believe that 108% of the Russian canned production means that, for example, for every 100 cans of food produced in Russia, the US send 108 cans. So, maybe about 54% of the canned food in Russia at the time, or the canned rations, were American imports?
Slightly off-topic but related, can anyone confirm whether genuine Russian military rations are always marked with _'не для продажи'_ (not for sale)?
Not always but generally they are marked this way
@@zheka1780
Thanks for the reply, EK - it's useful to know with all the civilian rations available.
but where's the sawdust
Is it possible to get a link to the website so that I could get this ration. I know someone who would love to try it
Veshmeshok.store
I want to eat that chocolate bar..😂
This can never be from World War 2...
No soviettes included?
You mean smokes. Apparently they had machorka tobacco which was rumoured to be stretched with dried horse dung. Rolled in newspaper.
Georgian tea was famously pretty shit, so Georgia reduced production and raised prices, nobody wanted to buy it, and these days there is no more Georgian tea. You'd probably decribe the taste as "mild".
Real wwii Soviet for most conscripts？Potatoes and black bread.
Frozen horseflesh from Wehrmacht horses would have gone in the pot too I reckon, if the Germans hadn't scoffed it first.
needs alot of water... lol snow.
98% fat
2% meat
In WW2 the Russian army lived off Spam sent by the USA, without which their army would have starved. Eventually Stalin got so embarrassed by this fact he disguised it as Tushonka.
Red army Don't eat rice
yellow pea soup 😂
what is so funny I dont get it there are yellow or green peas and peasoups ?
You need to try dvopek lol dont know why is evrywhwar krekers why thay dont put some bread or dont know krekwrs to dasty dusty...
Away from the f****** mic when you chew! I love the content of your videos but that drives me f****** insane!
Needs vodka.
No
Please stop saying "interesting " every 20 sec....
You can always make your own videos.😭
Interesting you should point it out
