    Emmy, the diamond symbol with Y is not a specifically Danish marking but an international shipping requirement. It is called a "Limited Quantity Hazard Symbol", and is required for international shipments that contain hazardous materials that can only be shipped in - you guessed it - limited quantities, lest they catch fire and endanger a vessel or aircraft. This symbol with the Y in the center denotes it is safe for AIR transit. The same symbol without the Y denotes ROAD or OCEAN transit.
    I can only assume that the symbol is present here incase this pack contains a chemical heater, which it clearly does not in this case. Possibly it is a relic of a time when they routinely did include such a thing, or a better-safe-than-sorry, belt-and-braces approach to shipping safety.
    I hope that helps.

      Ozzpot this ration pack was supposed to contain a chemical heater. Someone must have removed it at some point. This also explaint the lack of matches wich you will find in some of the other Danish ration packs. In total there are about 15-20 different menus, but that number varies. Also, they are not mints, but pieces of dental gum.

    Danish Soldier here...
    now... lets see... those bloody fruit n' fun tubes are universally hated in my platoon... because before those there were proper porridge in the rations... apple porridge, wild berries porridge, strawberry porridge.
    put that bad boy on the heater in a vehicle in the morning and you got yourself hot apple porridge in the cold winter mornings... a freaking life saver... or it used to be like that... until Fruit n' Fun came along...
    the ration should contain a chemical heater for the main course and a pack of matches but i believe they have been removed for shipping...
    the toothbrush contains some kind of dental powder coating that has a slight minty flavor... pretty cool if you like having your mouth filled with the hairs of the brush because that shit is some low quality... xD
    there is a version of the ration that contains freeze dried menus but that is for summer use... the winter ration has what is referred to as wet menus which is what you got... look at the box and you will see that it says wet on the side... the winter rations also has an extra main course for those extra calories needed in the winter :D
    some time ago there was a packet of mayonnaise in the rations... mix that with Tuna, salt, peber, hot sauce and you've got yourself a surprisingly good tuna salad for your bread :D

      I don't think she likes everything. She didn't like the fruit drink, for example. She's not afraid to say when she doesn't like something, but she just stays extremely polite the whole time and doesn't seem to let it affect the rest of her mood/day/meal.
      Somehow, out of all the UA-camrs I regularly watch, I think Emmy would actually be the most terrifying if truly enraged, because of that calm focus.
      (Or maybe Luke Westaway. Dude's so nice and sweet 95% of the time kinda like Emmy, until he gets dark.)

    In Denmark, a comedian and candidate for the "cooperation of consciously workshy elements" (a mock-party) was elected in 1994. One of his key issues was "Nutella in the rations", and afterwards a chocolate spread was included - it was removed again in 2010.

    Danish soldier here. I know the video is old but it just popped up.
    I've only been on exercises where we didn't have much time to eat, so we got pretty creative on how to eat.
    First of all. We would never take the tuna or the macarel (that we now have instead of lime tuna) and put it over the bread. We would squeeze a bit of fish out of the package into the mouth and then take a bite of the bread. And I'd do the same with the paté. Most people didn't like the paté so I'd have a bunch lol
    The main course got... Interesting. We would heat it up with water and then put in our tuna, spicy sauce and pour a salt and pepper package into it and then stir it around. And yes. It's as disgusting as it sounds.
    The breakfast was the good meal. We would take it and pour our cocoa powder into it and dump a package of sugar into it. Actually made it taste pretty good.
    We would never make an energydrink by pouring it into our canteen. We would take some powder and place it inside the mouth, kinda like snuff, and then drink some water to get the taste.
    All the little snacks we would carry in our pockets and eat throughout the day. Everything that we didn't pack in our pockets we would put inside the plastic bag and put the bag in our backpack so we didn't have to carry the box.
    And those biscuits. We called them "Cork cracker" 'cause you would not need to go do a #2 after eating one of those.
    The raw bite is great. It's filled with energy and you feel it instantly. But it feels like eating a dry brick.
    And man... That Toffee bar was the highlight of a day in the field :D

      @LymanPhillips 2 роки тому +2

      Dude. First, I hope that you're doing well. Second, I totally can visualize young men and women eating their rations this way. Easier on the cleanup and good way to eat on the move. The dinner with the tuna and the hot sauce sounds like something I'd eat back in college when I staggered in from a late night out with my buds. But the best of the best is your recipe for the muesli - pouring the cocoa powder in there is brilliant. I hope the guy who came up with that is now a general!

    And the packets that I remember used to have different kinds of stewed fruits, and nobody wanted the one made from prunes.

    In the old C ration packs the peanut butter would actually burn sufficiently long and hot to boil a cup of water for cocoa or coffee. We would save the peanut butter tins for that purpose. When combined with the biscuit and jams packs, it made the perfect bed time snack. The peanut butter made in Los Angeles burned the best, probably due to the high amount of air pollution

      Fun fact; pretty much most if not all nuts are actually seeds! The more you know (:

    • @RowanWolf22
      @RowanWolf22 8 років тому +19

      "A nut is a fruit composed of a hard shell and a seed, which is generally edible. In a general context, however, a wide variety of dried seeds are called nuts,"
      So basically the shell + seed = fruit,
      But the seed itself = Nut. (Although the whole fruit can also be called a nut.)

    My dad brought MREs home for us to try. He was in the military. One was like a peach cobbler and the other was some kind of chili mac. It was awful. This was when I was a kid in the 70s. They look like they’ve gotten much better than they were. Enjoy watching you try them and telling us how they taste.

    Bridgeford also makes frozen bread dough. You may have to check various supermarkets to find it, but it is good.
    Butter your bread pan, place the frozen loaf in, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it thaw and rise. 2-3 hours later pop it in the oven.
    Very good "homemade" bread. And no stupid bread machine.
