2016 Chinese PLA Navy Self Heating MRE Review JT-07 Survival Ration & Tasting Taikonaught Space Food
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 вер 2024
- A true shelf stable food journey. Starting with a 2008 JT-07 Life Saving Food.
Then to 2004 boxed for dignitaries at a convention (from the 2003 Shenzhou 5 Flight) - Taikonaught Space Food. I bought this from a guy who was also selling US NASA Space Food, but all those lots went for thousands of dollars. This was only $450 - American collectors weren't interested. It was the only item I won in like 20 lots. The rest went for much more. Yang Liwei ate this food on his flight. (I think I mis-pronounce his name as "Ling-way" in this review, filmed 4 1/2 years ago. -My apologies for the mispronunciation.) If anyone has any other variants of this flight mission's food, please contact me. I want to document as much shelf stable food from China as possible. Those moon cakes were fascinating and had an excellent shelf life. I've seen one photo of a Taikonaught eating those same exact cakes. Do they still produce them? The glycerin coating and lack of any oxidation or degradation to the flavor in a period of 16 years was impressive. Along with the texture and flavor.
Then to the third shelf stable food item - a 2019 Type 03 PLA Pilot Survival Ration. A fascinating compressed food blend that is sure to inspire some great and imaginative conversation.
And finally to the 2016 PLA Navy Self Heating Meal - what a terrific ration. With unique nutrition and food that makes these Chinese rations so truly fascinating.

He's not using a translator. Once again, as legend has stated, Steve proves that he can read any language ever created as long as it's on a military ration.
Steve doesn’t speak languages, he just happens to know everything on military rations
An admittedly lesser super power, but useful none the less.
What is "google lens"?
Not even Chuck Norris can do that.
Maybe a hint to where he is located but I‘ll shut up now.
Hearing Steve say “ I’m not gonna eat that” sends a chill up my spine
I think he learned his lesson from the PLA meal from a few years ago...
Was he talking to us, or himself?
@glennbrymer4065 the lady who propositioned him at the bar. 🤣
@@TimMonk1911each whiff gives him flashbacks 😂
Century-old bully beef? Sure!
PLA meals? Nahhhhh
Once Steve finishes building his resistance to whatever biohazards are inside PLA rations, he’ll truly be unstoppable.
Whats really bizarre is that its pretty much only steve whos complaining about the pla rations literally search in youtube for ANY pla ration and many enjoys them, why its only steve who has problems with it?
He already is!
@@ThomasZukovicif you watch the video he actually thinks these rations are good. His community likes to make racist jokes about how the Chinese rations nearly killed him or whatever.
@@ThomasZukovic Well the validity of his claims are proven, during the beef noodle one he showed how the meat was green (rotten).
So perhaps he is just very unlucky, or his supplier does not keep them in good storage place, or the PLA cut corners on their MREs.
@@ThomasZukovicthis man has eaten meat from the first boer war and bread from the 1800s if something makes him sick it is not suitable for human consumption
Chinese here, to be fair that "space food" Steve got here is more of a tourist trap souvenir sold at some space museum in China, the American counterpart would be those "space ice cream sandwich" sold at some NASA museum. Because there is no way they would be eating canned food with that much liquid in a weightless condition. But its still pretty impressive Steve actually could get his hand on those stuff.
Yeah. I wondered about that when the packet described it as "space food."
Just seemed a bit redundant, and not the sort of thing actual astronauts or scientists would refer to something as.
The weight of the packaging and the sharp tins being g conductive would not happen.
I was thinking that the dust coming off the pineapple would really mess up air filters. But I've been binge reading "The Expanse."
Lmao Steve got got
who is to say the same food wasn't present inside Yang's capsule back in the days, of course you're not getting the ACTUAL cans he brought to space, what are we talking about here
For years watching Steve get it out on a tray never gets old lol

@@jeremynelson5311 Not his first rodeo!
when does he say that lol
@@jeremynelson5311 He used to eat it even if it was kind of bad in his opinion.
But im pretty sure the last trip to the ER convinced him he needs to stop doing that with these rations, and historically speaking Chinese MRE's have always been the worst when it comes to long term quality, even under kind of "ideal" storage conditions.
Especially since this was a "2016 MRE" but was produced in 2008 lol

“A gusset so it can stand up on its own. You always need that. Especially in outer space!”
I love the sarcasm.
One of the many reasons I come back to this channel is the absolutely dry-as-a-bone humor
and mains that are not at all adapted for space lol. just opening those without having hundreds of tiny meat broth balls flying into your electronics wtf
@@meinnase Imagine having to explain to you superiors that you wasted half the mission time chasing a meatball around the capsule while trying to suck the broth out of the air.
@@meinnasenot to mention the extremely dusty freeze dried pineapple
@meinnase FINALLY, someone in the comment smart enough to note this failing in the supposed Chinese space food.
As a Chinese-American, in Pooh I am disappoint.
“Woah, Chinese Space Pineapple!” is not an exclamation I’d ever think I’d hear but here we are.
@@chromelemon sounds like the name of a jam band
Could be a t-shirt!
Didn't have that on my bingo card😅
The gusset is what gets me. The US does not include it in MREs for 1g terrestrial applications. But, in outer space China has you covered for, you know, when you want to have some pineapple while firing your orbital correction booster.
Thanks you ruined it for me now
Can we all just stop for a moment and appreciate that this guy got Chinese space food and showed us.
This is legend.
From 2003.

Outdated or no. It's still an awesome accomplishment.
That it was a promo pack, not available on the market says much.
@@user-gd4ku5se8h we can infer from him saying "from my collection" that he has had this for a while, and until now was too valuable to him as an unfettered keepsake. The thing has a gold velvet like cloth with specific indentations for the items. That's cool af!!

@@Steve1989MREMost chill response ever
@@Steve1989MREyou might be the chilliest dude out there man. wintergreen, medium bristle, an efficient toothbrush
You know you've been watching Steve for awhile when you see the title of his latest video and think "2016, so he's got a new, fresh one today!"
Someone on ask Reddit asked what people’s comfort UA-camr was. And the amount of people who said you was incredible
Cause he does not waste his time going into current politics and such and focuses entirely on the topic of the video. Education, comedy with a unique experience of MRE's we'd never get to experience!
He's definitely mine
This is true for me along with Stobe the Hobo videos!!Something about rations and riding trains..
I've had countless people recognize Steve when I wear the Botulism City shirt in public
I've never seen him do an ad read either
“Persevere to the end. Rescue will come.”
That’s beautiful
“To the end” struck me as odd and defeatist. Would be better if it was
Persevere always. Rescue is coming.
@@tdolan500it might be something more like that in the original Chinese but translation always loses some of the message. I speak English, Welsh, Japanese and BSL and a lot of the time translating creates confusion for the person getting it in English because those other languages are so literal but in light of the culture they come from the message is completely different. English is a very fast and loose language that changes quite frequently but others have stayed the same for so long because of the rules applied to them that you could almost consider them as ancient.
@@incredibleflameboy I did suspect that. I’ve been learning Japanese for about a year and it’s the same issue with using literal translations.
@@tdolan500 good for you my man! It's a reasonably easy language once it clicks for you and it's always great to have that extra feather in your cap.
@@tdolan500I can read Chinese and “Always persevere. Rescue will always come” is a better translation of the meaning in this context.
Steve super power: Can read any language flawlessly
Also Steve super power: but only on an MRE
After eating so many expired rations Steve has undergone genetic mutations to the extent that he was able to assimilate a Google Pixel, and is now fluent in every human language.
he uses google translate on his phone
GET OUUUUUUT
@@mysock351C
But only when reading the ration.
Steve to the genie: "Oh I wish I knew every languages! You know, so I can read foreign MRE rations."
Genie, with a smirk: "Granted."
I'm having a birthday party today and I feel like no one can top Steve's gift of a new video.
Hey happy birthday hope it's a great one and have fun!
The ending theme was quite fitting for this extraordinary review. We need more of such!
Thanks man! nice
Thanks for being a stand up guy Steve.
Nice
What if hes sitting down??
Hey right on thanks for stopping by man! alright cool, see ya
@@yaboiglitch909 every time he cuts to himself, he is standing.
Never seen him sitting, hence stand up guy confirmed.
@@stevenarmstrong6622If he is never sitting..Is he personification of 'uplifting'? One thing is for sure. He keeps on giving without sitting on laurels!
For those wondering, Yang Liwei is currently serving as the director of the Chinese Manned Spaceflight Program. The Shenzhou-5 mission is, and would likely remain, his only spaceflight.
That's interesting 😊
cool, thanks
Nice
Thanks
Let's get that Chinese Space Fact out onto a Space Tray.

And realize they’ll all defect just for a lunch
@@joshp5563 Its kinda weird that of all the MRE review channels its only steve whom had encountered problems with pla rations consistently. Literally search in youtube for Pla ration reviews and most if not all the other channels like them. So why its only steve? Riddle me this
That's just the botulism talkin...
His stomach probably shrivels up in advance to try and convince him he is not hungry
The taikonaut example package is an incredible find, I'm shocked that other collectors weren't going crazy over it.
Probably weren't aware of what it was?
One of the coolest things he's shown on the channel I think
He probably paid a pretty penny for this particular piece of paraphernalia.
@@davestier6247 the video description mentioned that he paid 450 dollars for it, but also mentions that it sold for a fraction of what other space rations from nasa ended up selling for
Ok. Just started the video and the picture of the box 0:11 has no perspective and I thought it was quite large. Then Steve's hand entered the picture to pick it up, and the box is tiny. I just burst out laughing.....
Plot twist: The ration is actually humongous and Steve is a Titan.
I thought that too
@@Tumbledweeb😊
@@bradysunter1504
That was an emergency ration intended to take up as little space as possible while providing barely sustenance level nutrition until help comes.
Hi Steve, I'm here to say thanks, I've been having issues eating, and your extremely positive videos have helped me eat. I appreciate you deeply.
the best part about July is Steve uploading a bunch and my birthday.
I’ve missed multiple flights today and finally settled down into bed. This video couldn’t have come at a better time. Thank you
Hey man I hope the rest of your night goes okay and tomorrow is a better one for ya! Take care
Oof, I assume you also got caught up in the big BSOD crash as well. Well I wish you a good nights rest, atleast we get a nice bedtime story from Steve!
I am still amazed and thankful that you open and present to us rations that surely have (sometimes significant) monetary value instead of having them sit in a collection for (almost) nobody to see. I salute you Mr. Steve!
SZHT is probably Shen Zhou Hang Tian
which means Shen Zhou Aerospace, wonderful video as always!
That's the ultimate troll to bring fish to the office for lunch when you work on a space station.
This is how WWIII starts.
The thing I love most about Steve and his channel is that other UA-camrs would have broken this video into 4 short, individual reviews. Steve jammed the content into this video!

I have been subbed to Steve since about 2014-2014 and I still love his videos just as much as I did when I first subbed. Dudes awesome
The bean curd is called tofu skin in Chinese, because it's the film-like layer - a skin - that forms over hot soymilk. It's usually found in dried form, then reconstituted and stewed.
pretty good in hot pot with enough spice

Why roman script instead of characters? Details too fine?
@@samadams2203 indeed, most likely the tooling or mold for Chinese characters are several times more expensive than those for Roman letters. Like many food and beverage products in China, these are produced in one of them massive state owned enterprises, their only incentive for using these markings are to distinguish these products from other similar food products they produce for other markets like for sale to the public, so for them, something that is simple and reliable is more than enough for their purpose. TL;DR: the producer only require the most simple/reliable means of marking to help identify these products in their supply chain, so they do not bother to invest more and use Chinese character markings.
@@samadams2203 indeed, it would cost several times more to use mold/tooling for Chinese characters. Like many food products in China, these are produced by one of them super-giga-massive state owned enterprises that churn out similar products in unimaginably huge quantities, most likely they only require the most simple/reliable method to distinguish these products from those they make for other market segments like for the general public or for school lunches.

Hey Steve,
I just want to thank you for your videos. I have never eaten an MRE but your excitement and verbal tone is so comforting when things are going bad with my bipolar. Your videos are like Valium.
So I was watching this video and my wife was in the other room. Around 2:01, Steve takes a sniff and said, "Is that rancid...?" and I involuntarily yelled "Don't do it, Steve!" My wife came in from the other room to ask what the issue was. I may have to get offline for a while... Steve, I wish you well in your recovery.
Right on thanks John.

Fun Fact, the Hawthorne cakes are actually a common snack for children in China/Chinese speaking communities! They're given to children usually as a sweet treat after drinking bitter Chinese medicine.
The Chinese ones are always a special treat since they're so...uncanny. It's always fun to learn things with Steve; I never knew what Spirulina was before today.

When this video popped up, UA-cam asked me if it was useful. I clicked yes and then every descriptive option they gave. Love the content.
Hey right on thanks man! alright cool, see ya
hah i got here through a similar thing. one of those sections where it asks you "do you want to see more of these?" and you can click "recommend more of this stuff" under each one.
had forgotten about this dude for the last two or three years. i was pretty surprised when he said "i ain't eating that" because i remember him eating a 150 year old cookie and like 100 plus year old chunk of beef that came in the first types of cans that were ever invented. thought that he must have gone soft or gotten real sick from one of these recently, but then i thought about it for an extra second, and it makes perfect sense. it's made in china. i wouldn't eat it even if you paid me and it was brand new out of the factory. poor dude eating this chinese stuff with weird ingredients..
Hey, Steve. Thanks for being who you are and what you do. You’re the goat.
I feel like Steve doesn't age. He looks the same as he did in his videos 8 years ago! He is truly part superhuman.

Steve - I spent 5 years working as the project manager for an algae to oil start up company. We visited the largest spirulina growing facility in the US and let me tell you, after seeing that, I will never eat spirulina again.

Steve I've been watching you since 2019 and you have always brought me great peace for some reason. You seem like a really great dude and I thank you for your content!!! Much love !!
Those hawthorn candies were one I ate a lot as a kid! It's a layered treat that combines hawthorn gummy (the darker color) between layers of hawthorn flakes (the lighter color). Real good stuff. I recommend you trying to find some at your local Asian supermarket.
and the bean curd you're eating is made by boiling soy milk! the thin layer of protein that forms on top from boiling is harvested and then dried for later rehydration to eat. It's very delicious and soaks up tons of flavor when it's used in a braised dish :)
0:10 On the box it says "Hold on to the end, rescue will surely come."
Wow, this video is a treat! Such interesting, rare rations, and so many of them! Thank you, Steve!
Hey thanks so much for checking this one out!
Opening those cans inside was a boss move. For me that would have been an outside task.
Hell yeah it's always a good day when Steve uploads!!
I've enjoyed your videos for years and sometimes my wife sits and watches them with me too. Thankyou for all your hardwork providing us with great, informative information! Hope your doing well sir, have a good weekend 👍
The small squares from the space ration are labeled "little moon cakes" so most likely lotus seed paste or red bean
I wish there was a way to get more. Most certainly the best part of that kit

😂
I bet he did off camera😂.... nice!🤢🤮
You already know shit's fucked when he says it smells rancid the moment he opens the bag
I wouldn't eat anything made by "the people's republic". Steve is a daredevil.
What’s sad is that he’s eaten plenty of really ancient rations, leave it to the Chinese to have rancid food after only a short time
the box says 3 year shelf life and it was manufactured in 2008. are people actually surprised that its rancid? does american food also stay fresh 13 years after the expiry date?

Never change, Steve

After eating many mre’s for months on end I can say seeing your videos on other countries systems of feeding their troops is fascinating. Even if it’s way out dated you still take a bite out of the food. Love the vids man.
Steve it is called bean curd and you can get it at any Asian store. It's just soy/tofu rolled thin and then flattened into a sheet. It's one of my favorites if you go to a Chinese hot pot restaurant which is how I know
