Hey I just want you to know that me and my mom always loved watching your videos my mom passed away about a month ago we love watching them together separately and talking about them whatever we could do they were always interesting so thank you
So sorry for your loss sir or ma'am😭😭😭🌹🌹🌹🌷🌷🌷.
stay strong
my fiancee also used to watch Steve's vids with me and she passed away last December. now i kinda feel sad hearing "let's get this out on to a tray"
@da6640 I'm sorry to hear that my mom would probably say something like as much as it hurts you just got to keep moving forward and try your best don't forget them never forget them cherish the memories but look forward
Cool story
The fact that he, at over 2 million subs, refuses to put ads on his videos.. this dude is a class act. Raised well and it’s obvious.
☝️
Because l can't like the comment twice.
Steve is probably an alien. nice.
Nice
Money is of no concern to this man, for all he needs are MREs which he obtains by breaking into various war museum around the globe.
Dead ass got an ad on this video while reading this comment lol
It's like Steve knows when the world needs him.
nice
I hope Steve knows that the world will ALWAYS need him!!😊
Steve always knows when the world need him!
Everybody likes Steve. They will copy Steve onto the first AI robot companion for the USA military, for sure. "I prepared your MRE. Doesn't that look delicious." 😮
It's as if he knows the world needs Steve
I love that steve took like what a 2 year break and then just comes back like nothing changed just doing the videos like always. Love them
nice!
yessssssssss omg
he's back, with a nice hiss!
@@Steve1989MRE Let's put you out on a tray!
@@Steve1989MRE Suggestion: put up a summary tallying all the nutrition information in the MRE so I don't have to add it up manually.
I never thought I would be so enthralled by a Florida landscaper eating old food. I never thought the method of deconstruction would resonate so thoroughly in my very soul. Steve isn't just a food reviewer, he decants the essence of military diet, explores the history, and gives sincere criticism that you could almost swear the manufacturers hear.
It's really nice.
Edit: Holy crap I want that shirt he's wearing.
0:03 Despite your disapproval, this is what optimal performance looks like.
He;s in Florida? Hmm. Im in Fort Pierce, Fl wonder if he is near me lol
@@LieiuDsac shut up bot
@Equinistah His mailbox is in Lakeland so id assume around there
@@lilybruggeman9634 Ah ok. Not all that far from me actually, about a couple hours or so.
Steve replying "nice!" to comments. he truly knows what the people yearn for.
nice!
Very nice!
@@Steve1989MRE Can we get these comments out onto a tray?
@@Steve1989MREthere's a couple of specks on the camera lens 😊 nice
To paraphrase a certain infamous tweet:
Steve1989 fans literally only want one thing, and it's freaking...NICE!
Let's get this out onto a tray. Nice.
How do put a video on a tray?
Nice.
There is something that's so viscerally satisfying about those words and defies all logical explanation. It's just... nice.
Just to think he is the coroner who is gonna do the checking you out and he'll be saying that let's put him on the tray nice😅.
The most comforting words on all of youtube
I've probably said it before, but I'll say it again: Steve's understanding of food science combined with his culinary observations really elevates this content above the rest and heightens the experience, as well as viewers' comprehension of the meal. For as entertaining as the content is, he's also really doing great work archiving these experiences for both for current and future generations to appreciate and enjoy. Great stuff.
Hey right on thanks man! nice
I wonder how often (or if) he cooks for himself
Some day I'd like to see exactly how many calories of each meal come directly from just straight added sugar and corn syrup.
I couldn't help but notice. Just between the drink and the bar. There's a ton of sugar in that MRE.
The bar should more correctly be called a corn syrup bar. Because that's the main ingredient above all others.
The drink mix has 68% of your daily sugar intake just in that one drink.
How did Americans reach the point where nobody notices how disgustingly sweet everything is nowadays? I like sweets. But nowadays it's just insane how much sugar and corn syrup gets put into literally everything. I've seen Italian dressing with sugar and corn syrup as one of the main ingredients. Above vinegar and oil.
@@edwardscott3262 I'm totally with you about how much added sugar is in everyday American's diets and how bad that is. But if you're busting ass day in and day out as a young person working as hard as you can, things like tons of sugar, fat and salt are what you need. That's straight energy and electrolytes you're using to keep going at 100%. MREs are not meant for office workers.
Junk food like chips and candy bars are actually really beneficial to soldiers and manual laborers alike, because they immediately use the fuel they're intaking. It's only really bad if you eat stuff like that sitting on the couch because your body turns that rich fuel into fat because you didn't make quick use of it.
I like when he's risking his life with 100 year old food
I love that you kept the small channel flavor over all these years. The custom music, the funny stirring sounds, the man cave, never change dude
Thank God for freeze dried coffee. I remember basic training ‘07, the Drill Sergeants said we couldn’t make the coffee in our MREs. When they weren’t looking I poured the freeze dried packet in my mouth and chased it with water. 🎉😂
Nothing is more American than a cold beer and Steve on the big screen with fireworks in the background. God bless you Steve!
🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
Why are we here in this life, why do we die, what will happen to us after death
My neighbors are refighting the "Battle For Hue City"! 😅
Happy 4th to you and yours man! nice alright cool, see ya!
When a mortar goes off and before the report... Nice hiss.
Steve dropping two new videos the second I sit down with my dinner. Nice!
I am eating my cheeseburger, hotdog, and mac and cheese, and beer 4th of july ration while watching this
Did you catch the ones he posted yesterday?
But did your dinner have a nice hiss???
Was your dinner on a tray?
I'm glad Steve1989MRE is not eating expired food today!
Why are we here in this life, why do we die, what will happen to us after death
@@nevergiveup59391: There is no why it’s just random, 2: because nothing lasts forever, 3: we rot and decay.
Hope I could help
nice!
So long 1800's/hello Twenty-First Century ... yum yum
@@nevergiveup5939it just happened that way, the way we are designed, we can never know. That answers all three
I’m here in the hospital with salmonella poisoning and your video is really helping me take my mind off of the pain and discomfort. Love you bro thank you for the upload!
Take it easy man I hope you recover nice & fast. All the best to you bro alright cool, see ya!
@@Steve1989MRE THANK YOU STEVE!!💯💯
This is the first time I’ve seen Steve make a funny intro.
I love it.
nice!
Hey my dude. Thank you so much for being you. You’re honestly what I watch sometimes to gain an appetite to eat.
All the love,
37 year old Canadian dude. 🤘🏻
Hey right on man I'm glad these videos can help inspire you to get a meal out onto a tray so to speak. Much love back from good old Sunny Florida. alright cool, see ya!
"toasted marshmallow air freshener" ...... Nice, best MRE food description I've heard in a while.
About time you made a review on this one, dude. This is actually the first MRE I've tried in early 2021.
This is a now perfected menu as of 2023 too! It got rid of those weird cheese protein puffs and replaces with the caramel protein bar.
@Steve1989MRE we are going to dig in our stored MRE packs and see what we got! Thank you sir!
Steve man you have brought me so much entertainment and knowledge over the years. Ive loved mres since i was a kid in the early 90s and had the freeze dried peaches after that i was hooked. Tearing into an old mre or c rat really does bring a feeling you cant really get anywhere else.
Thanks so much! All the best to ya and hope you find some more FD peaches! nice
You're one of my comfort youtubers. I can always rely on your videos to destress. Thanks for what you do :)
I know it adds a bit to the editing process but the musical spoon/glass taps always make me smile.
nice!
Same. Literally every time.
Right? Always waiting for that...
YES! Always excitedly anticipate those. Maybe one day he’ll play Reveille while mixing a beverage base!
I was just watching some old videos, glad to watch a brand new one right before bed! Steve has singlehandedly made me crave MRE's.
nice!
A good portion of them are actually edible. Is it fancy? Nope, but for the average citizen there's enough calories in a single meal to survive one day
Hands down, best mre reviewer on UA-cam. Knowledgable, well spoken and organized. Steve, you definitely set the standard for mre videos and every entry in your collection is a delight to behold. Keep up the great work, you absolute legend. 👍
Steve, yours remains the most wholesome and honest content on UA-cam.
Never any click-bait or misleading titles. Just pure MRE bliss.
Thank you.
I went through basic training for the military recently, and this MRE was always a highlight. You knew if you got this or spaghetti in meat sauce you were going to have a good day. If you check out the maple pork patty (assuming you haven't already) it's awesome. It comes with pound cake, syrup, and they're very divisive, but hashbrowns with peppers and bacon. Not crispy or golden at all but it was delicious.
After constantly refreshing my page i finally got some *nice* content
nice!
4 uploads in a week, nice
nice
okay, let's get this out onto a tray.
I'm stuck at home with an injured leg, so having these new videos to watch is a blessing! Thanks Steve! 😎
hope you're recovering nicely
i love how bro is basically a nutritionist and gourmand at this point
You’re my favorite person on UA-cam. Love your videos and I love listening and looking at you :)
Hey thanks bcollins, nice!. Happy 4th to you and yours! alright cool, see ya
It is not mentioned enough just what a hottie Steve is lollll
0:03 you may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like
Nope. Its at 0:10
nice
Why are we here in this life? Why do we die? What will happen to us after death?
@@rockinrobbie1985Same guy after these vegan mres.
@@nevergiveup5939 Shut up bot. Go to bot hell.
You’re spoiling us with all these uploads.
nice!
Lord. Find me a nasty fox hole and one of Steves's MER dinners & I can go to heaven for dessert.
It’s true. I was just thinking I should pace myself for when there’s another break coming for him. But I can’t seem to not watch when they’re here! 🤷🏼♀️
"One thing that should be in every MRE..." Hot sauce! :)
good call!
Don't care who's in charge of that decision, they need to bring back the wee little Tabasco bottles.
You know steve, you really help me calm down. I have to put my 15 year old cat to sleep in 8 days, and literally everything makes me start crying like a loser bc of it, and your videos let me calm down so i can actually sleep. Thanks so much man. I know you don’t do it for that reason, but you’re just living your life the best way you can and i’m sure you have your ups and downs, but you help me chillout man.
Hey man it's gonna be alright. You're going to be okay, times like this? Take it a day at a time and enjoy the little moments. I hope your steps of healing lead to new happy chapters and where you can look back at these last days with your cat as good ones! Take care, take it easy, and be good man. Alright cool, see ya.
crying for losing an animal is not "loser" behavior.
@@Steve1989MRE thanks man
@@robcanisto8635 i just look stupid when i cry is all
Happy 4th of July - Two Steve Videos!
Happy 4th to you and yours! nice
Looking at the tray at 10:11 I just had this overwhelming feeling that it looked like a grade school cafeteria meal in the 90s 😂
His tray looked way better, dude. The 90s were a lawless hellscape.
Steve you are a Knight of the MRE table.. Thank you.
@0:12 😂 nice!
I think everyone tries to emulate Steve when he says, 'Let's get this out onto a tray - Nice!' Such a good catch phrase. 😁
0:11 "his smile and optimism **GONE**"
Such a random Steve edit lol
is that Hillary Clinton?
Double uploads on a day like this? Wonderful c:
nice!
The fact that I could start my day with your video just elevates my mood, Steve. It is so good to hear from you.
I cannot stress to you how much I love your creative music and intros on all your beautifully crafted videos. Thank you.
Happy 4th Steve. Loving the new videos.
Happy 4th to you and yours! nice alright cool, see ya
No way we get another video so soon! Thank you so much Steve!! Alright, nice!
Sitting here with pops perfect timing. He loves these ❤
Thank you Steve, you always help me and my mum relax, she’s officially cancer free and we celebrated with a first strike ration off mre mountain
Anyone else like to watch these while enjoying a bedtime snack to relax before laying down?
FREAKING WHAT???? We are truly blessed! Thank you! ❤❤
Why are we here in this life, why do we die, what will happen to us after death
@@nevergiveup5939 We are here to enjoy what we can while we can. We die bc death is the natural order. Nothing happens after you die. It's like before birth, there was nothing. It's the same. Nothing.
16:31 "This might be the best meal I've had.....all day" LMAO
nice!
We were hiking this morning and were taking a break and I commented about the nice gusset on a Capri Sun, then proceeded to ask her if there was any peanut butter to put on top of the Snickers bar.
Nice!
nice!
That second tap after the initial stir. Thank you sir.
Thanks for all your hard work Steve, I’m always delighted to see a new video from you in my notifications
Steve surely knows how to treat us on the United States of America’s birthday!!!
Exactly! Although I was expecting something with patriotic sugar cookies as the dessert. 🇺🇸 🫡
I LOVE YOU STEVE!!!!!
Hey Jona much love back! Nice alright cool, see ya
I've been watching Steve's videos since I was in college. I went through masters, med school, residency, and my board exams putting on his videos now and then. Crazy to think how he's been a small part of my life for so long.
Me and my wife have been watching you for years and have been waiting for you to combine the ingredients like you did with the protein shake 😂. We would combine as much as we could to get the best combo of food while being able to eat as quickly as possible, so to see you finally do it is awesome! 👊
Thanks for making these videos still. Love your videos, got me into MRE's and it is a fascinating hobby!
I'm just commenting for the algorithm. I'll watch this when I have time to get this out on a tray: Nice.
nice! alright cool, see ya
@@Steve1989MRE Steve, I love when you come back to us with something new....or old. Nice.
Good to have you back
I first saw Steve's video in 2018. I remember spending the whole night watching his videos. Furthermore, I don't know why, but I'm still enjoying watching them.
Nothing better than a Steve video! His voice is like the first time I heard the Beatles, Nice. The way he plays his drink mix with spoons on fast forward is music to my ears, we love you so much steve! Thanks for all the video drops of recent! Best way to celebrate the 4th!
Happy 4th! nice alright cool, see ya
No matter your age, gender, religion political views or color of your skin one thing we are all in agreement of we all love these MRE videos thank you Steve
Nice! Happy independence day Steve!
Nice! Happy 4th to you and yours!
Thank you Steve!
You're welcome man and thank you too for giving this one a look! nice alright cool, see ya
love Steve's modern MRE reviews. Am probably gonna be eating this soon if the hurricane season is active this year.
Coming back to 4 new Steve videos after being on vacation. Nice!
New Steve on Fourth of July? Nice.
Nice.
Watching Steve on the 4th of July. Nice
Happy 4th! nice
Every time i have dinner with my brothers, we always say “Let’s get this out onto a tray.” Or if we open a can of Soda, it’s always “Nice Hiss”.
Steve you really have made an impact on lives and keep doing what you love.
One of the greatest reviewers on UA-cam.
My reading of this comment was a bit muddled at first and so I read "Let's get this Soda out onto a tray"
As a very recent fan of the world of ration reviews, your videos are what got me hooked! Love your detailed descriptions, historical information and fun you have during each review. You do right. Thanks for the new video and for making an old veteran enjoy the sight of MREs again!
"Like a toasted marshmallow air freshener."
Not on my bingo card.
Never change Steve. Stuff like this is why we luv ya.
Earliest I’ve ever been to a video. Nice.
Nice.
Happy 4th of nice hiss!
Happ 4th Maxwell! nice!
Nice!
Nice!
Well I’m at work on Friday morning with nothing to do……. and Steve posted a video. Great way to start the day.
My mom and dad used to love your videos. They would always watch them together, and I remember one specific video of yours they watched. Theyre no longer together, but I like to watch these videos to remine myself of when they were together.
A Steve upload on Independence day makes me proud to be an American
Happy 4th to you and yours! nice
YESSS!!!!
nice
Happy 4th of July!
Happy 4th of July to you and yours man!
Damn this is awesome, just had to get my dog put to sleep a couple days ago and I get even more Steve to warm my heart.
Other than the lack of a teabag, this looks like the best MRE/military ration I've ever seen.
Jesus Christ is Lord, King and Our Savior!
God, Im so happy to see this on a Friday to kick start a great weekend. Plus you uploaded more vids this month🎉
Nice!
I love this guy's videos bro im serious. Hes one of few people ( if there are any left ) without any adds in videos, no unnecessary music choices, no unnecessary word choices, just plain good ol review and somewhat reasonable consistent uploads. No reason to hate the guy ❤❤❤❤
if you like Steve you should check out Steve Wallis.
Good ol steve1989mreinfo I started watching you when I was about 19. I’m 26 now almost 27. Crazy how fast times passes. I hope you’re doing good, happy and are healthy Steve.
“The US military requires rich calorie dense food in order to keep our boys energized and sharp” = tactical spaghetti ohs, rice krispy treats and a literal sip of coffee.
Been watching you since i think my sophmore year or junior year in high school. Im 22 now, almost 23. Graduated in 2019 at 17
And your content is still the same. Thanks steve, for the consistently same content. Love your videos.
As a soldier who eats these I really enjoy seeing what the world has in their versions and absolutely love it when you break out an old historical one. Keep up the amazing work. Let me know if you ever need any rations
Steve has produced the perfect youtube channel. Theres no shilling, no manipulation, no drama, just a pure subject with each video release perfect. My god its beautiful
ANOTHER STEVE VIDEO SO SOON?! WE HAVE BEEN BLESSED!
Steve describes food better than anyone. I can taste the food when he describes it.
I've been a sub for a long time. Just love watching these vids, the calmness, the unique MRE's from all over the world and from different times is just awesome. Thanks Steve!
Watching these are always a comfort, no matter what's going on in my life at the time, I know everything is going to be: Nice!
I think everyone tries to emulate Steve when he says, 'Let's get this out onto a tray - Nice!' Such a good catch phrase.
Nice!
Hey Steve, just wanted to say that until I watched your videos I never gave a second thought to MRE’s or military rations. I continue watching your videos in particular though because of your style. There’s something oddly soothing and satisfying about it. I gotta say, you’re bold with what you’ll brave eating.
This channel might actually be the best thing on UA-cam. No joke thank you Steve.
Not what we have but what we enjoy constitutes our abundance.
Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it.
4th video in a week! What a way to start July
YES!!! So glad you're posting more again. I missed these videos when you stopped for a long while. Awesome, thanks Steve :)
