Hello everyone! We are smoking the oldest ever recorded cigarette out of a Korean War-era Accessory Packet Can from 1951.
This thing is 65 years old, extremely rare, and will probably never be filmed again upon opening and enjoying - at least not quite like this.
This is a relic, and not to worry, this one wasn't the only in my collection, the other 2 are now in a respected collection and will be displayed soon. And this one will be sent off to a display as well.
It was certainly a pleasure opening this and enjoying a nice old Chesterfield cigarette and Topps brand gum. Both were still perfectly fresh and enjoyable. Something that I have been anticipating for about 5 years now. And this cost some hard earned money and time to locate. Worth every second and penny put into it!
Thanks so much for watching/subscribing. Hope you folks find this video interesting and hopefully a little entertaining as well.

Best way to control smoking only smoke cigarettes from 1950
the lies we tell ourself to stay in our addictions
@@Dave96939 how do you even get enough cigarettes from the 50s to satisfy the average nicotine addict
Only smoke Lucky Strike cigs, it's like finding a needle in a haystack sometimes. Only certain smoke shops have them.
*finds an abandoned warehouse filled to the brim with 50s smokes*
Woops, Oh well
@@mattyboi7491 I know you wrote this comment 4 years ago but... If you only smoked very old cigarettes, their rarity would mean that you'd struggle to smoke enough to develop tobacco dependence. Obviously, it would still come down to your will power to not smoke habitually. Which means, if you could do that, you might as well just rarely smoke regular cigarettes.

Alexandro Guidow Rhizzati yea the nic buzz is strong
There's a part of your brain that never forgets cigarettes....like riding a bike. The Nicotine Buzz.....your heart rate just went up, along with your Systolic blood pressure. Paradoxically, your Central Nervous System just went into 'Calm and Focused' mode.....just the sort of thing a cold, scared and lonely soldier needs....steady the nerves. That's why you need water proof matches. If you think a smoke will 'steady you up' and you can't get a light......

Haven't smoked in 10 years or so. Seeing you hit an unfiltered cig without coughing after you had quit for a while is impressive and crazy. I would of coughed for about a week. Thanks for sharing.
"would of" 😢
ok@@mason96575
How he talks after smoking the Chesterfield...are we sure that was tobacco?
Maybe they are strong, a lot of nicotine can temporarily soften you.
i hope one day to find a gal that appreciates me as much as steve appreciates his 400 year old cigarettes
James Henry same
THC= That Heavyhitter Chesterfield.
Cigarettes from the 50s are fucking strong man. Especially if they sat in a can for 60 years.

literally everything that comes out of the dude's mouth is badass
The cigarette review is absolutely outrageously great
The way you opened those cigarettes made me cry, but man would I give an arm and a leg to try those chesterfields...
jojosiwaofficial same man it hurts so much
Hha an arm or leg haha
My father fought in that war, unfortunately some guys litterlly gave an arm and a leg for a cigarette. Same as all wars I guess.
Holy cow, that thing was amazingly preserved! It wasn't so much like opening a time capsule as it was like opening up a time machine! I really can't believe that the gum was not only fresh-tasting, but soft! It's funny to think that technology has advanced so much over the past half-century, but an old tin can is still such an effective way to keep food and materials fresh. We've seen how bad MREs can be after "only" 30 years. It's incredible to think this thing is more than TWICE that age. Sure the coffee is a mess, but when you opened that can it looked like it had just been packed yesterday--no stains, leaks, nasty smells... I know this was just an accessory unit and that an actual food component (like Spaghetti or Pork & Beans or whatever) would have most certainly been bad if it were that old, but it doesn't take anything away from the amazingness of the condition that this stuff retained for all these decades. Thank you for sharing the experience with us Steve!
I've been getting around to watching ALL of your videos (they're all great). It's just taking me a while to find the time to get through them, especially since you've been doing such a good job of cranking them out quickly.
I've never smoked, but it was actually enjoyable sharing the experience of that Chesterfield through the video. It was obvious that you were REALLY enjoying it!
+Steve1989 MREinfo
I havn't checked, but do you perhaps ebay individual cigs?!
I'm from UK and would really like to smoke a vintage non filter Chesterfield!
Like you I am a non smoker (15yrs) Steve... Love your vids mate
I buy those cigarrs they sell them in Mexico
In 1971 I received my 'C' rations in Vietnam made the same Year of my birth ! (1950) At 20 years of age......I thought I had old Cigs and Food ! Thanks for the Memory....P.S. The coffee is like a blog of Tar, But..Water and a small of burning 'C-4' from a Claymore Mine will make you a Cup of Hot Coffee !
ciggaretes sucked after they put that anti fire crap in it
I fckn cried laughing watching him enjoy that Chesterfield 😭🤣😂I enjoyed watching him enjoy it😂
That’s a fact 😂
Lmao, this channel a guilty pleasure fo yours, Lola? I really found it supe super interesting to see him straight up smoke the cigarette, and be excited about it Haha.
Hey Steve! My dad served in Korea during the war and we had a great time watching this! These are indeed very rare as he said they only issued his unit SURPLUS WW2 K Rations out in the field - he never saw this one (normal mess hall on base when not out on patrol). His friends in other units coveted their 5-man ration boxes similar to what you had in another video. Interestingly on the 5-man ration you cracked open - he said the bread was about the same color he remembered for a barley (?) bread.
Watched the first of these with the Vietnam era MCI and can't get enough. This guy is hilarious, probably unintentionally, which is what makes it side-splitting. Not laughing at you but with you. Great.
Hmm, ugh, oh, aww!
haha i read that in steves voice
Peculiar brand of humor
Steven, a quarter of a million people just watched you smoke a cigarette and loved every second of it.
Except for 60 of them. But they don't matter.
Skwerley doyle Hahahahahaha
Really enjoyed the can opener in a can rant.
“It’s not gonna happen. Maybe it will.” And “I feel like I’m gonna hit the floor” both lines made me laugh out loud
What am I doing with my life I'm literally like watching a guy smoke 65 year old cigarettes
Maggie12MD yeah you shouldn't be here go do your homework
Maggie12MD
Literally like......
It's really only about 15 cents worth of tat and a pack of coffin nails, but I can imagine how welcome it was and what an event it was to open one for guys going through pretty much hell on earth. A cup of coffee, some gum, a smoke and a good dump and you could almost believe you were going to make it home one day.
That's about all I shoot for every day 😅
Tax free cigarettes always taste gooooood.
This was before they learned to make the modern cigarette with all the chemicals. Had to have been an incredible experience. As a kid, my grandfather had allot of the old rations with the 4 pack. He had several cases. I enjoyed those old cigarettes. This was around 1976. Good stuff. This video brought back memories of that. Thank you.
Cigs back then still caused cancer? Whats ur point? Just cause they taste better doesnt mean they are risk free 💀
@@Bruh..669 Nobody ever said that. Some people enjoy cigarettes with no chemicals better, everyone knows they're still dangerous.
This may be the first time I've seen someone get high off a cigarette.
lucky strikes can do it too
Ayan yeah and they were filterless too
Belmonts never fail to give you at least a headrush.
Try smoking a pipe for the first time. Don't smoke Dunhill Nightcap. It'll hit you like a ton of bricks if you're a nonsmoker, and it'll knock your socks off if you're a cigarette smoker.
Make a rollie with pipe tobacco
"It's making my palms sweat......nice!"

Steve, I love how every time you smoke you really endure the feeling of the cigarette it is really funny and I love watching all of your videos. please keep it up for everyone out there really liking your videos. I always dreamed of being a guy like you, not a smoker, but a youtuber and an mre tester and i hope to come out to be a guy like you if you read this comment I wouldn't be surprised because it is very long if you are reading this then thank you for all the content and for reading my comment.
Did you know you can open a soft pack on only one side for easy access by peeling back the foil on the side you favor. This also keeps them all from coming out when you want just one.. I hadn't thought about this in 30 years.. Love your passion my friend!

Joe Camel That is a nice surprise! Glad Someone likes them, which video was it?
My grandpa (before he died) had 100 packs of these from his time in Korea, and he let me try one. Damn, they tasted good. My brother smokes Marlboro and he let me try them, they tasted like ass.
They were the BEST cigarettes. The only cigarettes I ever enjoyed with some regularity. Was always so shocked at how mellow they were being unfiltered. They disappeared in the US market early 2000s. Thanks for posting.
hey, ever thought of selling loosies? I wouldn't mind paying for a single cigarette from 1953.
Meanwhile, in 1951: In 2016 there will be flying cars, laser rifles, and working fully humanoid robots!
Later, in 2016: We're here reviewing a 1951 Korean ration...
GD Shade On UA-cam, on internet, on a Pc/ smartphone/tablet.
Does any of them existed in 1951?
Normie
I’m fucking dead this is prophetically accurate
Tesla had a deathray... but it went against the convention and is considered to be a weapon that if used is a immediate war crime and that jazz.
Everything you mentioned are in existence now and have been for years!!!
he's so hyped for the cigarettes lol
DACFalloutRanger yeah from the 50s.. you know.. these are rare as hell..
I could watch this man smoke vintage cigarettes and hear him talk about them for hours. Glad you kicked the habit man! But I enjoy that you still smoke these just to experience the ration in its entirety.
Just when you thought you were gonna hear “nice hiss”... nope. “Wow I felt the air hit my face” man I love this guy.
I love the irony of having can opener inside the can :D
Maaaan ... after not smoking for a while and then smoking an UNFILTERED 65 YEAR OLD CHESTERFIELD? Jesus Steve no wonder you got the nicotine sweats/sickness!
it would have definitely given him a boner
im sure when he was like, "this is a good cigarette " that nicotine was hitting him hard as a bitch
+Kuda Idk why that made me laugh out loud but thanks lol
The only saving grace might be that you can't get a cigarette that tasty anymore!
This video is so satisfying to watch lol. Seen it multiple times now. Love the channel, keep up the great work
im goin out for a smoke now
coffee and cigarettes, is this just a repackaged French 24 hour ration?

Really cool seeing what my Grandfather may have been eating, drinking, and smoking. VERY cool. :)
lol.....i run the risk oh getting hooked again.....ain't gonna happen.....or maybe it will this cigarette is good......that was funny shit
Your channel never fails to deliver a quality video. What you do is just one of many reasons why UA-cam is so cool.
oh wow im already feeling that...that's a hard hitter😂😂😂😂
The expressions on his face and the way he is describing the cigarette is hilarious! I quit smoking myself but would definitely try one of those!
Back when cigarettes were more like little cigars with good quality tobacco in them compared to the crap they put in modern cigarettes.
Michael Maness roll your own dude
Michael Maness smoke spirits
I love the way you savored every second ..just amazing to be able to watch you open this and sharing it with the world.Thank you.
Your excitement for this makes me happy for some reason
These are my favorites!
My dad told me stories about opening these when he was in the Marines!
"Chesterfield cigarettes" I've always wanted to see what he was talking about.
Awesome, thank you !
I only smoke outside, I almost feel like it is wasted if you don't smoke outside. Like on a nice cool night, looking into the stars, with a nice cigar in your hand.
I 100000% agree
Cigars are best indeed.
it's minus 5 degree's outside so i think i'll pass.
Cigaros are too fucking harsh man
is that a 65 year old blunt cause u would think so the way he chats
+Greg Bremner and by the way he holds it when he hits it haha
+Greg Bremner looks like one helluva nicotine kick
+the Driza how would you know? did you smoke a 65 year old chesterfield?
what? i was only specifically asking the driza how he knows that he is exagerating the smoke of the cigg, not how he talks in general.
I believe roaches were often stuck in the end of a Chesterfield - a lil Panama Red ting goin on......
Chesterfields are still widely available in the UK.
In South Africa as well
They're back in the U.S., but only filters.
"recovering smoker gets hooked again on film" should be this title
My Dad was in Korea '51-' 52, and I'm sure this the ration he got. I wish he was still around. He said it was so cold (20-30 degrees below 0) even guys who didn't smoke, smoked because it kept them warm. Thanks.
Seeing you enjoy all that so much was really enjoyable.
idk why, but the sounds of everything you touched were so crisp and satisfying!
7:10 when you stare at the blunt after you light it
Yes you can still get Chesterfields, not sure they're as good as the 1951 blend.
I smoke Chester field they always have a smooth smoke I tried over cigs and they make me cough but with Chesterfield cigs I never cough
They have a lot of nicotine compared to most cigarettes, even in 2016
As I understand, the companh was sold to another manufacturer. I doubt you can find any true Chesterfields anymore. I would try one if I could.
i smoke chesterfield, sometimes their mint flavored even, the only brand that i can smoke
Literally everyone smoked in the 50s lmao
You literally should learn to meaning of 'literally.'
Jimmy Crackcorn Not really, it got his point across, and that’s literally all that matters.
Hell, if you were working on 30+ hours without more than a few minutes with your eyes closed, in a place where you need to stay alert to live and could die at any moment anyway...you'd be like "Gimmie a smoke"
the sound when the seal was broke .... i was holding my breath lol .... and now i feel like a dork for being that exited but i dont think im alone . thank you so much for sharing this !!!!!!
I've got some Luckies from 1917, thought about trying to light one up but I think it'll go up like flash paper. The papers are pretty brittle.
Lick it and rip it.
If you do light one be sure to film it
Film it man. Please.
Ryan Conway do it man

I like watching you smoke the ciggs while I sit here and smoke a fat joint enjoying your vids, 12:05 my favorite part lol

Rewatching older Steve reviews. This one is solid gold!
We always come back… 3rd go around with this one 😎✌️
Back in the 1950's, grocery stores usually had sample packs with 4 cigarettes of most brands that were given away free.
My dad fought in Korea during the first year of the war. After he got out of the Army he refused to eat anything powdered. His all time hatred of powdered eggs was epic. He used to talk about how they would also get a ration of Pabst Blue Ribbon 🍺. Three whole cans a week. He also swore that their rations were left over from WW2.

" it's making my Palms sweat, nice" phrases like that he should make them into a NFT. Nice
Read your comment right as he said it. Love it when that happens.
Thoroughly enjoyed this Steve. I've watched a bunch of these and never commented. Thanks for sharing dude.
I smoke Chesterfield almost every day, as they're very popular here in Europe still.
Not very popular in the States however.
AwesomeRepix our version are l&m's made by the same company
Yep, they were called that here too until a couple months ago.
AwesomeRepix I smoke Chesterfield too the menthol one's. They're very popular here in the philippines. Out of all the menthol's i've smoked chester's are the smoothest out of the bunch. I used to smoke marlboro regular reds then switched to a couple of different menthol brands until i tried chesterfields and sticked with them.
Yes, but here in Europe the Chesterfield is actually a really smooth and rather light cigarette.
They sell both L&Ms and Chesterfields here
Take a few of those cigarettes to a cigar lounge and record their opinions!

great idea
What a frank and thoroughly entertaining review
As a kid in 1957,my buddies and I would vie to see who got the "C" rats from the surplus store with "ciggies" in them. UK Vietnam era rations had English oval style cigs in them.
Oval?
@@johnw1954 Some higher end unfiltered cigarettes had a flatter "oval shape". I don't think they're made any more. Philip Morris English Ovals were the most popular in the US until they were discontinued 7 years ago.
Now that he smoked one, he might as well finish the rest of the pack.
Let's lay these boys on to the tray, NICE
I quit smoking ciggs 4 years ago, and to this day I miss it. The sweet smell of tabacco. The sweet pungent smell of the smoke. I'm in my 30's and I tell myself that maybe a few years before I know i'm going to go like 30 or 40 years from now if i'm still alive, I'll smoke at least 3 or 4 everyday till I pass. Hopefully they are not illegal by then. Fuck it, even if they are, I'll just buy it illegally, legality never stopped me from buying weed, lol.
A true smoker
Watching Steve smoke is like art. Makes me want to go back and take a clean drag in the coldness of winter. Fuck
I bet no one around you misses it
I feel like if your addicted to cigs, whenever you get the urge to smoke, go smoke a joint instead and see if it takes the edge away?
Google Is Fucking SJW Scum lol
CONGRATS ON OVER 1,000,000,000 SUBSCRIBERS STEVE!!!
Every once in a while i come back to this video to watch steve enjoying a cigarette while smoking myself at 2 am in the morning
Autumn 1974 my USMC platoon was on an overnight field maneuver at Quantico. Evening chow was 1953 dated cans.
The food items ( ham & lima beans, beef stew, date nut cake, etc.) were still edible. The company 1st Sgt. scooped up all
the cigarettes as the accessory pack cans were opened. The newbies like me were not amused.
Problem is if you haven't had a cigarette in quite sometime, that 1st one always tastes like gold, even the generic brand.
Dude, I love these videos. Well done.
Love your MRE videos man thank you. From south Africa.
Thanks for your videos, I really enjoyed this one...even as a non-smoker. I completely agree with your idea that cigs should be included in rations today. Even though the number of non-smokers might lead most people to think otherwise the fact is that the non smokers would be able to trade their cigarette rations (in some countries 2-4 cigarettes would get you an meal twice as nutritious as any MRE).
