I miss your MRE videos!
Me too!!
Same
Me too!
Agreed! I'll toast to that
Same.
Emmy, I honestly love all your videos, but the MRE's are probably my favorite! I love the way you describe things, and how cute you get when you get excited about lemon joy towelettes and truck stop coffee! 😂😅❤❤
Watching all your MREs helped me so much when I had anxiety-induced insomnia. Thanks for being you, Emmy. You've helped a lot of people through hard times.
Emmy has been my comfort UA-camrs for over 6 years. Her voice and personality are so calming. I watch her at night before I go to bed. I never miss a video of hers.
The joker in me wants to say "that is the polite way of saying Emmy is boring to listen to" but I know you don't mean that. She is very pleasant to listen, but often I find her to be more of an upper for me. I could not calm down listening to her, she makes me more curious about stuff.
Me rn at 4 am. However, screens and light does NOT help insomnia and can indeed cause it
@@baby.goblin also I don't recommend watching youtube on a laptop while laying on a couch. The moment you fall asleep the laptop falls down and you'll get fully awake by that.
Oh wow I thought I was the only one. It's amazing how these videos In particularly really does help.
Nice blast from the past. MRE reviews are what brought me to your channel years ago.
same!
The Department of Defense should hire you as a rations consultant. I'm not actually kidding. They should.
The troops would have the best tasting MREs on the planet.
Natick Industries, the company in charge of developing US MREs, actually has a program where people can help. It's a month long program and you get paid to eat MREs(no MCWs, TOTMs, etc.). I know it was an honest mistake on her part but for those strictly civilian viewers, MREs DO NOT come packaged in retort pouches. The components do. European rations tend to use commercial components a lot more often than US and UK rations, though UK rations will include them also. I've always been disappointed that US rations have not included more drink mixes, especially considering the fact that in some theaters of Operation, you're REQUIRED to drink up to 8 liters of water a day. Drinking plain water gets to be a chore.
@@kevinmoore2929 As a conscript almost all of the "MREs" I had (in Finland) were civilian stuff made for campers, keep it simple stupid I guess? During my retraining I actually got something that probably is a military MRE, so the more hardcore guys like recon units probably get the real deal more
She makes a LOT of money making these videos
No, she makes money making these videos, but, they don’t necessarily make her rich! That’s something people assume and, they assume companies pay them, nope, not unless if that company sponsors them and, that again doesn’t necessarily means she’ll make ton from that company! There are a lot of variables, which is based on subs, viewers, popularity and, then, there’s the commercials and people going to them sites! Don’t base something on something you think you know unless you know all the variables! And, I don’t watch UA-cam based on a baseless comment like yours!
I was actually thinking of rewatching your old MRE videos, this is perfectly timed lol
I was thinking the very same thing 😮
Reading these comments make me so happy because I thought I was the only one religiously watching her mre videos but everyone does for so many reasons ❤️❤️😭
MRE, Fruity Fruits, and the Beekeeping videos are my absolute favorites! Thank you, this was quite a treat!
OMGGGG! Fruity Fruits!!!! How could I forget!!! ❤
I feel like we also got a look back at Emmy’s best haircuts! This was fun to watch!
She cuts her own hair. She did a video about 5 years ago showing us how she did it.She does a great job.
Hardtack. Max Miller tapping hardtack biscuits against each other (click click). It's a running joke at this point
I hope he never stops doing it! Lol
I love your MRE reviews because you are always descriptive. You don't say: "I like it" or "This tastes good", rather "If you've ever had Dinty Moore Stew - it tastes like that", or "If you grew up eating canned peas, this will be familiar".
The Diamond with a letter Y in it is the Air Transport Limited Quantity Mark for hazardous goods and is related to the 1.2 meter drop test for air transport. I imagine they are required to use the mark because of the cans.
Thank you! Saved me from having to go to the original video to get the answer. Many thanks. 😊
Thank you! I knew someone on here would know.
It is the limited quantity symbol for hazardous goods but its not related to a drop test. It's because with certain MREs they have little envelopes you put in their packets and when you fill it with water it causes a chemical reaction which heats the water so you can boil your food packs. That chemical reaction is what deems the product hazardous for transportation but since the amount of the chemical present in the box being shipped is negligible in terms of how dangerous it it is to be flown on a plane, it's considered "limited quantity" and therefore can bypass a lot of the annoying restrictions to ship it with carriers, like UPS, FEDEX, ETC.
Shipping things like laptops and cell phones, which use lithium ion batteries and are class 9 hazardous materials, can also bypass restrictions if the "quantity" is limited.
When I was in my mid-teens, my dad used to take me hunting at Fort Benning in Georgia. The fort would open up the areas where they held their war games to veterans for hunting when the war games weren't going on. Naturally, the soldiers would eat MREs during these maneuvers. During our hunting trips, we'd often find the stuff they'd leave behind, so I got to sample those MREs. I thought they tasted pretty good. Later, as an adult, I bought some for myself. I still enjoyed them.
I did my first hitch (US Airforce) in 1976-1980, my second hitch (US Navy) in 1980-1986, had the old C-rats a few times. Didn't get to try MREs until later in the 1990s as a civilian. I occasionally used them on motorcycle roadtrips and camping trips. I carried GI Surplus canteens, cups and stove in pouches on my bike. Worked very well. 😊
I was in the U.S. Army from 1998-2006 and had plenty of MREs during that time. Other than a few really nasty ones, I didn't find them to be that bad. Back then if you got the vegetarian MREs, you had all the awesome candy and the snacks on the side were the best. I mean when you're in the field and hungry, you're not all that picky.
Oh, I grew up in Columbus. I worked at the Infantry Museum when it first opened.
OMG i’ve missed your MRE videos!!
I never saw the Polish MRE video. My family is Polish on my father's side, and oh, did that food look good to me! I wish I could buy it! Thanks so much for sharing your favorites! They were all very interesting!
I love when Emmy does the MRE’s been nearly a fan as long as she’s been doing UA-cam to where she is now and your seem ti be the most humble person on the app that hasn’t let UA-cam change who you are here to your next anniversary ❤
I completely understand what you mean! Some people get attention and it's suddenly all about the "merch" and bringing the whole family in, and calling themselves youtube stars. Ick. But there are also amazing people like Emmy who are just dedicated to creating amazing videos each and every time. So grateful. ❤
@@abaigealduda2756 Deffo
The people have spoken. We want more MRE videos.
🤣🤣 Not a fan of canned peas or green beans, but if you are hungry, youll eat it! My husband was in the jungle in Vietnam in the late 60's and he said after they had been traveling on foot for hours, anything woyld tadte good!!
Remembering the New Zealand one... the mains were actually a commercial brand of ready meals I occasionally used to buy myself, just in plain packaging!
I clicked on emmymade by mistake and I'm glad I did. Your pronunciation, elocution and vocabulary are wonderful and I could listen to you talk about nuts and bolts.
However ... your videos, especially the MRE's are entertaining and interesting. Thank you.
I like how Emmy eats the French rat pack cold, this exactly. Also when reality allows soliders will combine different rat packs and experiment with different flavours. Fresh food a priority. It's dynamic and situation dependent.
aww rhis is how i first found your youtube. Loved watching these.
I L❤VE your military ration taste tests. Some of the entrées look really delicious and your descriptions are so detailed. Now that we know your favorites, which rations did you like the least?
An Emmy MRE video INSTANT thumbs up!!
This is a nice blast from the past and how I happened upon you channel many, many moons ago.
I found one of her videos under a Townsends video over 7 years ago. I have never missed an episode yet. She is one of my favorites including Max Miller Tasting History.
I love trying different MRE’s too. I would love to try the Poland one and on from South Africa. Love the video Emmy!
What a great trip down memory lane! Miss your MRE videos but thank you for continuously giving us incredible content!
This lady be out her mind. Perfectly good kitchen and stocked fridge i bet. Content dont fit the aesthetics. Cannot stop watching. 😂
She’s eaten bugs, weird fruit, and bread made out of chicken. Everything is on-brand for Emmy!
Wait until you watch her eat bugs for Christmas. The videos are called Bugmas. She also eats organ meat those are called Gutmas.
wow that was nice seeing this best of. please make one of your top five japanese candy kits as well .
I originally started watching you for your MRE videos, love them! Denmark’s actually seems great!
Thank you for another amazing video. You rock Emmy! ❤
LOVE your MRE videos. Binge watched them a few weeks ago!
Halazone tablets - water purification, you are right!
Thank you Emmy! And soooo close to 3m, congrats!
As a Pole, I am happy that ours MRE was the best🇵🇱🇵🇱
When she tastes something and goes "Hmmp!" ❤
These are my comfort videos! you and Jenna Marbles always make me feel so comfy and loved
Love watching your MRE videos, miss them so much! ❤
Love your MRE videos!
Your MRE videos are my absolute favorites! This video is great! More individual review videos of Mre's would be amazing because im rewatching your old ones. May i ask if you see this, can you do an American Mre called the Chicken Burrito Bowl?
Rat packs brought me to this channel so many years ago. Now I watch all her stuff.
Emmy this is my first time here ..so cool THANKS 😁
I love that you have “ best of ” videos!!
I love your MRE videos. I think you're the best MRE reviewer on youtube!
You and Steve should collab. That would be….”nice.” 😂
Steve!, 😅
My grandma used to make something similar to the green beans in a can 😂 they have a slight metallic flavor but she used to always add peeled boiled potatoes to hers, it helped with the acidity and balances the flavor better
Was she southern?
I wonder if that green bean one was meant to be eaten cold, like a salad.
Was your Grandma from North Carolina? The canned green beans with boiled potatoes is really common here.
@@hollywebster6844 South Carolina actually
This is awesome thank you!
I love watching these
First video of Emmy's I watched was a ration review. Love going back in time to see younger Emmy. 😁
I really missed these mre videos! Love all your videos though lol!
Really interesting. Thank you.
I loved your MRE videos. I miss them. Hopefully you get some sent to you from countries you haven't tried yet.
Emmy, You have such a lovely sweet voice. I think I watch videos more so I can hear your voice then actually watching you cook.
Cream of mushroom soup is my favorite soup, I open up about 4 cans a week and dive right in. The beef and carrots looked amazing. I would try that any day ❤
I use cream of mushroom soup as a base for our cheesy broccoli soup. Oh and for a base of my copycat creamy chicken gnocchi (from olive garden it's my grandkiddos fav soup there)
I have heard of crushing hardtack and soaking it in broth, water, or whatever to make something like hot cereal or gruel.
Love this videos ❤
I'm feeling very weird about MREs given all the military horrors happening right now. Love you Emmy. 🕊️
The MRE videos are my favorite! The French one looks the best to me. Yummy!
You said it!
YESSSSSSS I LOVED THESE VIDEOS SM
I BURNED through your MRE playlist, it was my favorite!!
Love your videos
This might be the long video you ever posted thanks 😂😊
i hope you understand the impact you had on some of us, long ago when i was only maybe 8 or 9, i would watch you religiously, i thought your channel was so awesome, always gave a friendly happy soft vibe. it still feels the exact same today 10 years later. these small things i cherish so much
What a grest video. Enjoyed this a lot
I love your MRE videos
You make everything seem like it's delicious! Even things I know I would never eat! 😊
So glad you liked the Greek MRe
I Love your videos! ❤
So happy to hear you.
I would love to see more ration tastings!
I miss the MREs so much! And you're beautiful kitchen. ❤❤
Pull up a chair and a bag of chips. This is a fun video. Thanks, Emmy ❣️
Haha! Love your comment!
I loved the Japan ones the most. Idk how realistic they are in the field, but the food looked so appetizing.
It's a self defence army, they're mostly deployed on national disaster areas.
I like your MRS videos. Emmy I like all your videos .It was nice to see a couple older videos, back in your house kitchen and earlier and younger.
Yes! Bring back the new ration tests!! 🙌
Thank you!
i love going through all emmy's haircuts
I'm so sick and can't sleep. Yuck. This is helping me. Thank you!
Feel better. ❤
A one hour emmy video? I’m ready
I like the Japanese MRE the best. I like rice and the flavors looked delicious. Please Stay Safe Happy and Healthy Have A Wonderful Day
I love the MRE videos
You are a wonderful describer!💖🌟👑
I would love to try different mre packs like this. I'm jealous 😁
I do love an MRE / ration video.
MRE Vid. My favorite!
Nothing sweeter than listening to a woman describe army rations. 😊
Omygosh I miss watching you Emmy been years
Emmymade, if you respond to comments, do your kiddos try the MRE’s, too? I wondered what they would think. It would be amazing to have tat experience as a child. Thank you for all your videos. I get so excited to see when a new one is posted. ❤️
Every time Emmy says "hard tack" I think Max Miller is going to pop up and do the "Click click" 😂
A lot of time reading about World War II and watching World War II videos so I thought I’d take a break and watch your video and it’s about ration packs
It’s weird to feel nostalgic over a strangers kitchen 😭🤣, I love seeing the old filming spot!
I actually love the texture of slow-cooked green beans. I cook them witn tomato and garlic and they are just so unctuous alongside a roast beef or pot roast.
I get how MRE ones would have a tinned flavor though.
Emmy. I miss them too. Please put more MRE's. We love them. God Bless. Mari'a 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
For the Polish MRE..."Smacznego!" I love all of what is in that Polish kit!!
I was trying to recall my favorite MRE from my three years in the U.S. 🇺🇲 Army. Couldn't recall, must not have been very good. Hot sauce 🌶️ was a must I do remember.
He hear the omelet was a particularly tasty breakfast MRE.
@@BriarLeaf00 I was in 1988-91. Don't remember omelet. Chicken ala king I remember. Towards the end of a rotation I was only eating desserts.
@@research1586 I've had friends who've served in Afghanistan and Iraq. I still can't even wrap my head around not having to, well, use "the toilet" for like a week and a half, nevermind the food to put you in such a state.
My dad used to buy boxes of these in the 70s.
Like 10 boxes at a time lol.
He'd let us grab one and we would fill our water canteens and head out all day to play. My mom got a little mad once she found out there were cigarettes in some 😅
They were tins mostly my favorite was the chicken Ala king. Who knows how old they were. We did find a few that were bad but not too often.
@@Emeraldwitch30 Those sounded old in the 70s cigarettes and all. What kinda candy - dessert ?
I grew up with rations so this will be a fun video for me =) Dad was US Army
Emmy”it’s sweet but not overly sweet”made 😂
Frooty fruits compilation next!!!
I miss these!
Lets get this out onto a tray! 😃
