I like that it includes the water packet too! So many emergency meals don't include water, so you need to have running water, or you have to purchase a separate bottle of water. Smart thing to include.
since she needed to add water to both the meal and the outer layer to initiate the chemical reaction, the included water was portioned for only one. I personally would have used the included water, sitting in plastic for God only knows how long, for the chemical process and used my own tap water for the food.
@@pwp8737 I thought including the water was weird. People are going to need water to drink anyway, if you haven't got water to drink you've got bigger problems than heating your lunch.
@@juandenz2008 assuming you're in an emergency situation, having packaged water in your emergency kit that doesn't need to potable is absolutely a good thing.
It means you're not using water you could be saving for drinking to cook your food.
Having been stuck in the Australian outback, waiting six hours for pickup at a broken down car, I'd much rather have my drinking water be used only for drinking.
@@toobreeki8876 If you are in a survival situation where a cup of water is critical, you've got a major problem. You shouldn't be eating anything at all since that would accelerate dehydration and you certainly wouldn't want to eat one of those ultra high in salt meals.
@@juandenz2008 Man, not all emergency situations mean you have extremely limited water.
We had eighty liters of water in the car (as you should traversing the middle of Australia). Having proper meals on hand for when shit hits the fan, while you have plenty of water otherwise, isn't a bad thing. Most shelf-stable calories that have the nutrients you need have high amounts of sodium, because sodium is a preservative.
This is to say nothing of the fact that you NEED salt to actually hydrate effectively, especially in high heat where you're sweating a lot.
I'm so glad I watched this video. I've been trying to find this mushroom that I had used in a cooking class in Thailand. And I didn't know the name of it and when you described the wood ear mushroom, alarm bell rang! That indeed was the mushroom that I have been searching for going on 7 years. Thank you!
brah, you shoulda called me, i woulda told ya.
Ok
Glad you showed us those "easy" meals. Even at 80 years old, you learn something new everyday. Thanks for sharing.
this is exactly the thing I don't like about these self heating meals. it's "easy". look at the packaging. this is absurd. Yea, lets say you're on a trip or you want to stock up in case power goes out or something. Totally fine. But I can see people using these meals as their only meals because they're to lazy/"no time" to prepare their own food. This amount of package on one meal is just so incredibly stupid. I don't support it honestly. great video though:)
What's number anyway? A couple of digits. And, we're all digits.
@@laurinbaumann wonder what the shelf life of these things are
@@laurinbaumanni feel like these are very useful for those who dont have the mobility or capability to make a fully cooked meal
@@chocobocooki3the same as a cup noodle I believe
These would be good on a fall camping trip.
we used to go on fishing day trips and bring along cans of chef-boy-ar-dee that we'd leave out on the dashboard of the car to cook for lunch. these meals look much more appetizing than cans of ravioli...
Still waiting for those Cowboy Bebop noodles. In the anime, they had cup noodles that heated instantly by yanking a pull string on the bottom 😂
My first thought seeing this!
Some products are pretty close to that these days. For example there is coffee in a can that will heat when you twist the bottom.
@@juandenz2008 i think they stopped making those out of concerns for public safety or something could be wrong and hoping i am as i want to try one
Nothing more comforting on all of UA-cam than an Emmy video! Thanks for another cool video, Emmy! Your sound, video and editing are always quality too! ❤
Aww...thank you.🧡
The words relaxing and friendly come to mind.
@@emmymade
How much do these meals cost?
These would be fantastic during hurricane season in Florida when we are out of power for days/weeks! ❤
@@kohathav2932
How much do they cost?
Years ago Walmart carried a coffee that was self heating. I was an over the road truck driver at the time & absolutely loved it.
I think the chemical powered used is quicklime or CaO calcium oxide in a sachet. Add water and it produces an exothermic reaction.
Yeah, I once got a case of that for a road trip, if I remember you popped a seal on the can and it started heating itself up. It worked better and tasted better than I expected, good and hot. I really liked it and was disappointed when I couldn’t get it again.
I’d love these as an easy backup meal for camping. We always bring cupnoodles for emergency meals, but this is a full on meal🤤
They'd be quite efficient if the cooking container came with two meals and two heating pouches.
Hooray for meals to which Emmy doesn't need a power outlet! 🙅🏻♀🔌😏
Well said! Gotta love her every time it happens though! Lol
Ideal for a power-outage kit
😂😂
😂😂
After a bad day, seeing this was so comforting (as your videos usually are). And this got me really curious about pickled soup! 😮
Happy to bring you some comfort. Take good care.🧡
Gospel of Jesus Christ John 3:16 For God So loved the world that he gave his only Begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him should not Perish but have Everlasting Life. Jesus Christ Died for the sin of the World, If you believe in ur heart God risen Jesus from the dead and confess him with ur mouth to people you shall be saved. Jesus said I Am The only way to heaven there is no other way! Repent of urs sins (Repent means Change ur Mind turning away from sinful things and being truly sorry for it.) trust Jesus and give ur life to him He Loves you cares about you more than anyone ever will! we are saved By Grace Trough Faith!,this is sin: Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death but the gift of eternal life in our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 3:23 For all have sined and felt short of the Glory of God. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Romans 1:18-21, 23 KJV Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 REPENT OR YOU WILL PERISH REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL GET RIGHT WITH GOD LORD JESUS CHRIST.
how great to have on hand for power outages! Thank you, Emmy!
Flameless heater packs alone are about $16 for a dozen on amazon so technically you reuse tge set up with your own freeze dried meals.
I would flake the fish, to spread the flavour. It looks delicious indeed. And those containers would make perfect flower pots, and seed trays. ❤️
I heard a long time ago that the military uses these, but your video prompted me to check Amazon. To my amazement, I could actually buy these. Your video pushed me to look for them commercially, and I'm glad to see I could buy these if I wanted to. Great video!
Yes, the military has water activated heating elements sealed in a packet in MREs. It looks the same as the one in this kit. You slip the pouch containing the main course inside a little plastic sleeve containing the heating element where you pour the water, and then seal the pouch, and the food in the pouch heats up from the steam. It doesn't work perfectly, it's usually warm on one side, but usually part of the food is still cold or room temperature. We also didn't usually have enough time to let it heat up thoroughly, so we often ate them without heating them up first. The meal kit in this video seems to work better.
Love the way you described the tastes of everything. Also want to thank you for including vegan foods. 👍🏻
Those would be great options to keep in the pantry for power outages and so on.
I dont like all the plastic and I dread the idea of buying so much just to get the meal again if it was something that I liked. But the rest of it, what a terrific idea. I'll have to see what options are available to me in my area to try this for myself. Thank you for sharing this!
Yeah the amount of waste generated for one meal is why these things make me cringe, but I can see the utility in certain circumstances.
It was created for emergency only.
They are good to have in your earthquake box’s. Because in a good size earthquake you will have no power and gas lines will be broken or shutdown.
I agree, they make sense in certain scenarios, but that is a huge amount of waste for a single portion.
you realize plastic comes from trees
You have the most sensitive yet tolerable pallot with a twist of sophistication, I have to admit I'm jealous. 😂
Emmy, thank you for always having fun and interesting content. Your varied ideas are what make your channel great and keep us fans coming back for more!
Thanks so much for the kind words. 🧡
Thank you for sharing these wonderful meals with us. You have a large heart and it blesses us innumerably.
i found some ready to eat emergency meals, pre cooked, came in a foil punch in a tray like tv dinners, with a flat heat pak that you just break a little glass vial inside the pouch to activate heat. The meals were stews, soups, etc, no mixing or or preparing. the tray and heat pack came in a box just like a tv dinner. you put the heat pack and meal tray back in the box and 15 minutes later, have a streaming hot meal. I was impressed how delicious the meals were. I had tried others that were not so good or even inedible.I can't remember the brand but if i find any, i will come back and post the brand.
That sounds awesome!
Delicious but full of preservatives
Those things are for emergencies dude !
Can you post a link to them ? Thx😊
brand plz?
@@JohnHausser Why do you assume they didn't eat them in situations where they were the only option?
Hi Emmy, really enjoyed the video and had me thinking of buying a couple to take with me when I go tent camping in a couple of months. I figured to have them for emergencies. Great idea Emmy👍. Thank you for sharing
Those buckets look like giant Nespresso pods! Would be a funny craft to reuse them for.
HI, EMMY,
BEEN WATCHING YOUR CHANNEL FOR YEARS.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 🤗.
THANK YOU 💕
I tried a smaller version last week and it was very tasty. They are popular with some campers, apparently. I could imagine having a couple on hand for emergency purposes.
If I could get ahold of just the heater packs, I imagine I could make my own version with nesting bowls
I took one of those camping last year. It was super easy and tasty. Perfect for me ❤
i love to watch your videos because your voice is sooo soothing! and those look amazing!
In some cultures, families spend time visiting ancestral graves and sharing a meal. This would allow families to share the cooking experience as well!
I'm sure the ancestors would be going "WTF is that?!?"
You find such fascinating items. These meals are so interesting and they all look delicious!
i've been watching you since your first videos , i sooo calming for me to see you , thank you for everything emmy
Emmy keeps putting out top-notch content. Respect.
I just love ur videos.....they are so interesting and entertaining to watch.. thank you for sharing with us viewers.
Those all look delicious thanks for sharing 😊❤
My immediate thought with the pre-packeged water was that the water going into the food will be safe to consume. I mean I am pretty sure it's better to use safe water with the heating element too, but maybe if somebody doesn't have the option, and this way it's a bit better.
Exactly!
Cool! I really think its great that you shared this.
Happy Leap Year Emmy. 💖
Happy Leap Day!✨
I love you Emmy, you are so sweet & fun! This was really interesting, it's interesting food technology & good to have on hand just in case for emergencies or travel or just for quick convenient meals! Thank you for sharing!
Love your exploration of food!
Always love your videos. You always have such good ideas :)
Thanks so much! 😊
Your sound setup is amazing. Im getting chills on my studio monitors
Awesome, thanks for all your hard work Emmy ❤❤❤❤
Love love love ur videos!!
Those are amazing. They look like they would be fun for children to make their own meals.
If the heating packets contain quicklime, the used ones can be used around the garden - increases the soil pH.
So interesting! Thanks for sharing, I want to buy one off the internet now to try. If only these were around during my camping days.
Awesome as always thanks
asia is next level with single use plastics
Can I just say thank you for muting the eating sounds, as someone who has misophonia but loves food content, it's so hard for me to enjoy most food related videos on UA-cam. You have been my favorite UA-camr since 2019 🫶
I wonder what the shelf life is on these. They'd be great to have handy for emergencies. I love the ones with the potable water in them.
I have enjoyed your videos for many years now. Interestingly enough, I most appreciate your editing skills! I can only imagine you sitting somewhere editing out the crunches and munches! LOL
I need to get some of these meals! Emmy has a new fan ! ❤
These would be great for emergency meals in case of hurricanes or power outages.
Much love from West Kingston!
Everything looks good- can only imagine the aroma. My hubby had a quadruple bypass a few years ago, and thus, is on a low sodium diet. Wish you'd mentioned how salty, or not, it tasted to you, as that is the bane of many prepared foods. Umami is great, salt sucks!
Seems like fun to prepare, but there's an awful lot of plastic waste, however, due to its volume, could be repurposed as planters, sprouting chambers, and seed starting pots.( Everything from plastic water bottles to kitty litter jugs, can be used for gardening.)
Yes - I was thinking about reuse value, too. In an emergency, those buckets could come in very handy. Best wishes to your husband! I have to watch salt, too (not as carefully as he does), and it's EVERYWHERE!
Thanks for sharing this video
Thanks for the link to amazon. I was able to find what I was looking for. I love hotpot and it's light on my electrical bill. 👍❤🥰😍
This was an excellent video, Emily.
FYI, the first one [largest of the 3] was cooking noodles, so the heating doesn’t have to be that high. The other two are booking rice, which I believe requires higher heat to cook. Most of these ‘instant’ meals do have extremely high sodium contents. Glad I’m watched this video instead of eating them. So glad Emmy had fun and enjoyed them.
I assume that they might have felt hotter because the container was smaller.
Well, in an emergency situation in which these meals are basically for, you had better go shop for the low sodium options because god forbid this meal in an emergency situation will just cause so many problems, especially if there’s no choice and it keeps you alive! But no, the sodium is the most important to think about in that instance. 🤦🏻♀️
Omg I used to be obsessed with your MRE videos, loved them. My ASMR 5 years ago
I love these videos 😂
What are you having for lunch? These all look yummy 😋 Thanks, Emmy ❣️
🍳🥓🍳🥓🍳🥓
@@emmymade Breakfast for dinner is always good.
Happy leap day, Emmy and lovelies! (Or have a marvelous month of March if you are not from the Americas).
Wait how does everyone else deal with leap years?
@@skeetsmcgrew3282It's likely because when the comment was made it's already march elsewhere.
@@AirplaneDoctor_ oh duh. I thought I missed out on some magical calender nonsense I never knew before lol
Very cool!
I hope I will be able to find these where I am I love self heating meals as it saves time
those look so cool for camping or even eating at hotels while on vacation!
Hello, I don’t know how I ended up here, but I found this to be really relaxing to watch. Thanks very much.
I love the two vegetarian bowls, they're so delicious! sometimes i cook a vegetable side like bok choy to eat with it and even some tofu too. yum!
I love lotus root. The first time I had it was in a self heating pot kinda like that big one you had. Mine was from Little Sheep, and it was fantastic. I love these self heating meals. Good stuff!👍🏻😋
Glad to hear that you appreciate lotus root, too!
Are the plastic pots Recyclable?
Never heard of this style before but I'd be curious to try it someday! :D
this would be great for hurricane season
Ciao, i wish you all a wonderful Weekend, many greetings from brunswick in germany and please stay safe 🙃
Thank you! Same to you and yours! Blessings from Richmond VA USA ❤❤
I love the engineering that goes into these products
These would be great for camping! We camp with a gas cooker, electric rice cooker & fridge/freezer combo, however, for a no prep option they look nice.
Thank you for featuring veg/vegan options!
An absolute life saver 💯💯👌
These has are neat. I’ve tried a couple
These would be great for hiking and camping after a long day of walking in areas where you can't build a campfire, or something to eat as night falls upon the beach.
Thanks!
Boy that is a lot of packaging waste! At least the second one had some metal, it looked like?
Omg I love the instant hotpots 🥰😋🥰 sooooo delicious 💖
Works great for popcorn too
Great meals for preppers.
If you ever think it will be an old heater, put a pinch of salt in the water to speed up the reaction.
Good to know. TY!💫
This is classic Emmy fare and I APPROVE! Hehehehe x
This was a fantastic entry! I can no longer eat spicy, very hot or high-sodium foods anymore :(, but I can enjoy them vicariously seeing them presented and enjoyed by chefs on TV-and the ones presented here, I almost felt like I could smell how good they must’ve been! ❤
All of these look really good! I could tell the vegan chicken would be my favorite, too. And I must tell you that I notice and appreciate that you lower the audio levels during chewing which may sound not so lovely next to a mic. We all love to hear a crunch at full volume but not a slurp or anything else that is 'wet.'😉
I bougyt one awhile ago and thoughtit was really cool. It was good bit expensive. If i was gonna try it again id buy th meal and heat u it seperate which is much cheaper.
What are you having for lunch?
Wow, these look so yummy! 😋
These look amazing! I can't have gluten or MSG though so I don't think I can try any of them. Thank you for letting me experience them vicariously! ^_^
All of these look great. I think i would prefer the soup most of all.
Pretty cool.
That vegan kung pao chicken looks AMAZING 🤤
I'm glad one of them was a success!
that first one, 酸菜魚 is my favorite!!
Love your videos
Thanks for sticking with me through the years.
Emmy, you should try to make pumpkin seed tofu, its awesome.
Supposedly it coagulates on its own, without the need for a coagulant. It would be interesting to see you try it.
Pretty cool with the water. Just in case you have no drinkable water👏
Are the tubs reusable for anything? If not, are they recyclable?
Good to see it's plastic #5, which is the most stable to heat.
thanks
Looks yummy
