I just learned the other day how exactly these flameless ration heaters work: the heater has magnesium, iron and salt in it, and when you add water, the chemicals start to create a massive amount of tiny short-circuits, which creates the heat. So basically you heat the food with electricity! So, if the heater doesn't seem to work, adding some salt might jump-start it.
Hot hands are the same thing minus the magnesium. They absorb oxygen to create the chemical reaction. Can also be used as oxygen absorbers for long term food storage in a pinch.

Mags from Maine I actually appreciate that, because caffeine affects me very seriously. I get horrible angina, tremors, and palpitations when I drink full-caffeine coffee (or any caffeinated beverage). Drinking decaf is surely annoying for you, but it certainly won’t kill you. But this way, people like me can enjoy some coffee without hours of extreme discomfort.
Overworked CNA the manufacturers should offer a choice of decaf or regular. Frankly, I don’t understand why anyone would even bother to drink coffee without the caffeine. It’s like drinking a non-alcoholic beer: you don’t really drink either for the flavors, there’s far better tasting beverage choices out there-you drink them for their desired effects
R B Yeah, a choice would definitely be nice, but decaf covers pretty much everyone without excluding anyone 👍 And coffee is delicious? I don’t drink it for the caffeine (obviously), I drink it solely for the flavor.
I've actually seen a couple of brands selling them. The only one I remember the name of was Copper Cow Coffee, but i think there are others selling the same type of system!

I love getting freeze dried Peach slices and strawberries and adding them to a cup of hot tea they are so wonderful. Sometimes I will throw them into my iced tea and it's such a refreshing sweetener for either hot or iced tea.
I love your MRE vids! That looked good to me plus that adorable little coffee filter setup. Fabulous! Strange to have very runny soup but very thick hot chocolate lol. Thanks Emmy🇹🇷💜🤘🇺🇸
Emmy, you so should have put some of the freeze dried cheese in the soups. Also, I hope to see you mix the ingredients from each MRE to make each entree better!!! Keep being awesome!!!
The tortillas in there are much smaller than we know here. Rather than that , the meals are pretty much the same as we have in daily life. Thank you for representing Turkey once again and keep up the good work!
I love it when you get MREs and the food actually looks like something a person can enjoy eating. The Turkish Government don't really leave you wanting for anything with this MRE and recognize that food/the rituals surrounding it are a source of joy for people, and I think that attention to detail is really nice. The fun sensory experiences of mealtimes are still preserved (like with the coffee filter, or the inclusion of soup to eat with your entree), and the flavors and textures are interesting, and they give you big portions so you aren't left still hungry. The details are really important to people, and joy and normalcy are everything in emergency or combat situations, and it's nice to see a country that recognizes that and works to include these little details that make it a lot more pleasant.
@@jamestheotherone742 Welp, they can enjoy themselves too, though I don't understand why people don't cook for themselves when they go glamping, if they have the ability to. Thanks for the clarification!
I love Moon Cheese. My family and friends always made fun of me for crisping up cheese in the microwave or nonstick pan, but all of a sudden parmesan crisps and Moon Cheese blew up and everyone was like, "have tou tried this awesome new thing? It's great!" And I'm just like, "...you don't say? Crispy cheese is good, you say? I never would have guessed... 🙄"
Omg this brpught back memories lol I used to microwave cheese slices on a plate and eat it like that :) it would crisp up on the edges and still be gooey in the middle, i called it melted cheese :)
From a barista stand point, that was impressive. It’s basically a to-go pour over method of brewing. Super popular in speciality coffee shops. I am impressed.
@Bryan It kinda depends though. Turkish cuisine varies a heck ton a lot, I had never seen such variety in cuisine outside of Turkey. Cuisine of Mediterranean coasts tend to be similar to other Mediterranean food but it's usually, more fish/vegetable oriented than like meat etc. Some foods that are so popular among other Mediterraneans like falafel tend to be non-existent. Mediterranean coasts usually pair food with Rakı, a traditional Turkish alcoholic beverage. The Black Sea region offers fish just like Mediterranean Region but while Mediterranean coasts usually serve the fish as pickled or semi-raw and combined with other seafoods like octopus, The Black Sea usually fries the fish. It also frequently features butter, tea and hazelnuts! Maybe it's because BSR is very forest-ey, cold and rainy. Cuisine of Southern/Southeastern Turkey is usually heavy on meat. It's usually very, very spicy. Don't eat SE Turkish food too much or else you will die because of a heart attack or sodium overload lol, but it's pretty delicious. Western Turkey is usually known for the royal food of the Ottoman Era! To be honest, the Turkish royal food is unlike anything I encountered, it's literally a world on its own. Eccentric food like slow cooked meat with honey and almonds or a desert made out of chicken breast can be seen in it. It sounds very... weird, I know but trust me it tastes great, lol. I guess SE Turkish food can be considered as close to Lebanese food but I think Lebanese cuisine and other Turkish cuisines are like from different worlds.
EmoPeacock There is a Turkish restaurant near me and it’s delicious. It’s a very small restaurant but there’s never anyone in there whenever I go. My dad and I used to go every single weekend (before I started working weekends) for a delicious brunch, and it’s literally just the two of us in the whole place. We tell everyone about this restaurant because we don’t want it to close. It’s sooooo good! I really hope they can stay in business.
Honestly, I prefer Steve1989MREInfo for MRE vids. What Emmy brings to the table that no one else does is those horrifying 50s recipes and great depression foods.
I actually DID know that about tortillas in space! My favorite book of all time is Packing For Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void by Mary Roach. The chapter about space food is one of the best things I've ever read just based on how happy it makes me.
Folgers sells coffee bags, think tea bag with coffee in it. Before drinkable coffee became a thing in US, l used to carry them so I could make the dishwasher most places served drinkable.
I watched a K-drama called I Hear Your Voice and the main character had a tea filter just like that coffee. She had a glass of ice and fitted the filter over the glass and, just like Emmy, poured hot water over the tea filter. Ta-da iced tea.
Wow I am 3 years late to this video but as a Turkish I must say some of these items are not very common in Turkey. For example, I have never tried dried cheese in my life. Again, the freeze dried fruits are not as common as the other items. We eat acuka at breakfast and it is a wonderful spread on any kind of bread. And I believe that dried cheese and acuka were never intended to be eaten together on a tortilla but what a creative way to discover I must say :) Love you Emmy, thx for great videos
8:58 Turkish here 🙋 you can't really go wrong with the food combinations here, it's even possible that the weirdest food item&combo you can imagine is probably liked by some Turks already. I even have a friend who likes to put cheese in her Nutella sandwich 😂
@@Birdbike719 There are a lot of children in this country. Parents buy what the kids want.Adults like POPTARTS too plus the foil packaging looks like disaster (MRE) food.
I've been drinking tea lately, like im a tea drinker now, and i can say that when she said everything is better with a cup of hot tea, it is so true. I'll eat my dinner with a cup of hot tea and it's delicious. Doesn't matter what it is, a cup of tea goes wonderful with it.
Love the ration segments, Emmy. I've got to get to Turkey to find some of those coffee filters for cups! Funny today I opened a dried soup mix and spilled half on the counter, also. Don't know how you find time to do all you do in a day. Thanks for the efforts, as ever. Entertaining!

Miss Emmy, I would like to say your videos always help me to calm down if I'm having anxiety. You always brighten up everyone's day and are just a great TH-camr. I do have 2 Questions though. Q1. With all these taste test videos, what do with all the leftovers? Do you recycle them or use them for meals for your family? What do you do with them? Q2. Would you consider doing an MRE taste test livestream?
I'm Algerian but I was born and raised in France where's there's a lot of Turkish people and I have to say for that they for sure have the best coffee EVER!!! And their food is just delicious 😋
🍯and chlorinated 💧okay I didn't have that image.Emmy you are the best. I found your channel by TH-cam suggestions a few months back. Happy I was interested in your hard times videos.Keep up the great work.
The tomato spread is called “Acuka” it is common to eat with a piece of bread and cheese. It contains herbs and is quite hot. Since then bread would’ve gone bas in a few days “lavaş/tortilla” is a good option. But i am not quite sure about the cheese tbh. They are sold like chips and you eat it like in front of the tv or netflix.
Hi Emmy, there is a liquid that you can apply as a coating to your nagging scratches, Medtech New Skin First Aid Antiseptic Liquid Bandage, 1 oz, on paper cuts I've used crazy glue, and I've used clear nail polish in emergencies on nagging scraps that kept getting caught on things, but this New Skin is specifically made for skin. Of course, we can always slice a piece of papaya real thin and let it dry then apply, but that's another herbal tale.
In Turkey, the sting cheese is soft, moist, cheesy and littlebit on the sour side. They keep the cheese in salty water at delicatessens. When you buy it, you wash it with spring water but you don't really have to if you are okay with salty taste. The shelf brought ones are less salty and dryish. Alot of the MMRs include instant coffe mixture,.. the cheap way. The one you got there looks like a grinded coffe. Probably has somekind of Turkish coffe blend into it. Last but not least, you cannot go wrong with hearty Turkish style buffet food. Simple and tasty as always.

It blows my mind we actually have live translation devices now, we can just look through a magic lens at any text and read it. My inner sci fi nerd gets excited by it every time I see it!
After hurricane Maria, we were given boxes of these here in PR! I'm pretty sure they were US MREs. They were all pretty basic US meals and snacks. I loved the super big bags that had the breakfast, lunch and dinner! Now I know they are called 24hour MREs lol but I never once had an issue with the heaters. In fact they would burn me!
Mitchel I’ve never seen that kind of coffee filter thing but Folgers does make coffee bags. They are like tea bags but have coffee grounds in them rather than tea leaves. Definitely a better option than freeze dried coffee.
There‘s a German company called ‚My coffee bag‘ that sell these filters. Not sure about shipping outside of germany though. They also sell via amazon.de. I got their advent calendar for my husband last year and he loved it, they work really well and it tastes like proper coffee. 😊

It's awesome that it's a 24 minute video for a 24 hour ration
Your mre tastings are my favorite, Emmy! And I agree, that coffee filter was brilliant.
I think this is probably the best MRE I have seen on your channel
“Everything’s better with hot tea” said Emmy, as I took a sip of hot tea. Everything including this video.
I love getting freeze dried Peach slices and strawberries and adding them to a cup of hot tea they are so wonderful. Sometimes I will throw them into my iced tea and it's such a refreshing sweetener for either hot or iced tea.
That's clever!
you need to try yoghurt soup completely home made - IT IS SO GOOD!
Yes it is.
I love your MRE vids! That looked good to me plus that adorable little coffee filter setup. Fabulous! Strange to have very runny soup but very thick hot chocolate lol. Thanks Emmy🇹🇷💜🤘🇺🇸
Emmy, you so should have put some of the freeze dried cheese in the soups. Also, I hope to see you mix the ingredients from each MRE to make each entree better!!! Keep being awesome!!!
Only Emmy can make reviewing a piece of gum riveting! 😊
The tortillas in there are much smaller than we know here. Rather than that , the meals are pretty much the same as we have in daily life. Thank you for representing Turkey once again and keep up the good work!
I love it when you get MREs and the food actually looks like something a person can enjoy eating. The Turkish Government don't really leave you wanting for anything with this MRE and recognize that food/the rituals surrounding it are a source of joy for people, and I think that attention to detail is really nice. The fun sensory experiences of mealtimes are still preserved (like with the coffee filter, or the inclusion of soup to eat with your entree), and the flavors and textures are interesting, and they give you big portions so you aren't left still hungry. The details are really important to people, and joy and normalcy are everything in emergency or combat situations, and it's nice to see a country that recognizes that and works to include these little details that make it a lot more pleasant.
This is not a Turkish military or civil emergency ration. But a commercial product for "glampers".
@@jamestheotherone742 Welp, they can enjoy themselves too, though I don't understand why people don't cook for themselves when they go glamping, if they have the ability to. Thanks for the clarification!
Yay.. greetings from Turkiye 🇹🇷❤😘
@Bryan thanks my friend :)
@Bryan no love (turkish king) ABD iş end :D
I love Moon Cheese. My family and friends always made fun of me for crisping up cheese in the microwave or nonstick pan, but all of a sudden parmesan crisps and Moon Cheese blew up and everyone was like, "have tou tried this awesome new thing? It's great!" And I'm just like, "...you don't say? Crispy cheese is good, you say? I never would have guessed... 🙄"
Omg this brpught back memories lol
I used to microwave cheese slices on a plate and eat it like that :) it would crisp up on the edges and still be gooey in the middle, i called it melted cheese :)
We used to crisp up American Cheese slices in the microwave as kids. We called it burnt cheese and it was one of my all time favorite snacks.
From a barista stand point, that was impressive. It’s basically a to-go pour over method of brewing. Super popular in speciality coffee shops. I am impressed.
Yay, love that you're representing us Turks! ❤️🇹🇷
I clicked on this one so fast! I feel like Turkish cuisine in general gets very little love.
@@EmoPeacock Totally, people are missing out!
@Bryan It kinda depends though. Turkish cuisine varies a heck ton a lot, I had never seen such variety in cuisine outside of Turkey. Cuisine of Mediterranean coasts tend to be similar to other Mediterranean food but it's usually, more fish/vegetable oriented than like meat etc. Some foods that are so popular among other Mediterraneans like falafel tend to be non-existent. Mediterranean coasts usually pair food with Rakı, a traditional Turkish alcoholic beverage.
The Black Sea region offers fish just like Mediterranean Region but while Mediterranean coasts usually serve the fish as pickled or semi-raw and combined with other seafoods like octopus, The Black Sea usually fries the fish. It also frequently features butter, tea and hazelnuts! Maybe it's because BSR is very forest-ey, cold and rainy.
Cuisine of Southern/Southeastern Turkey is usually heavy on meat. It's usually very, very spicy. Don't eat SE Turkish food too much or else you will die because of a heart attack or sodium overload lol, but it's pretty delicious.
Western Turkey is usually known for the royal food of the Ottoman Era! To be honest, the Turkish royal food is unlike anything I encountered, it's literally a world on its own. Eccentric food like slow cooked meat with honey and almonds or a desert made out of chicken breast can be seen in it. It sounds very... weird, I know but trust me it tastes great, lol.
I guess SE Turkish food can be considered as close to Lebanese food but I think Lebanese cuisine and other Turkish cuisines are like from different worlds.
EmoPeacock There is a Turkish restaurant near me and it’s delicious. It’s a very small restaurant but there’s never anyone in there whenever I go. My dad and I used to go every single weekend (before I started working weekends) for a delicious brunch, and it’s literally just the two of us in the whole place. We tell everyone about this restaurant because we don’t want it to close. It’s sooooo good! I really hope they can stay in business.
@@overworkedcna412 where are you from ?
Love the music,characters,little stories,graphics,Everything is entertaining and fun at 14! Wow so talented
love love LOVEEEEE MRE videos !!
Honestly, I prefer Steve1989MREInfo for MRE vids. What Emmy brings to the table that no one else does is those horrifying 50s recipes and great depression foods.
❤️❤️❤️
Yaaaaayyyyy I’ve been waiting for another mre. I live for these. Pls don’t ever stop🙏😓
I actually DID know that about tortillas in space! My favorite book of all time is Packing For Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void by Mary Roach. The chapter about space food is one of the best things I've ever read just based on how happy it makes me.
Loved that book!!
Folgers sells coffee bags, think tea bag with coffee in it. Before drinkable coffee became a thing in US, l used to carry them so I could make the dishwasher most places served drinkable.
I watched a K-drama called I Hear Your Voice and the main character had a tea filter just like that coffee. She had a glass of ice and fitted the filter over the glass and, just like Emmy, poured hot water over the tea filter. Ta-da iced tea.
Wow I am 3 years late to this video but as a Turkish I must say some of these items are not very common in Turkey. For example, I have never tried dried cheese in my life. Again, the freeze dried fruits are not as common as the other items. We eat acuka at breakfast and it is a wonderful spread on any kind of bread. And I believe that dried cheese and acuka were never intended to be eaten together on a tortilla but what a creative way to discover I must say :) Love you Emmy, thx for great videos
I can't help but smile when I see that Miss Emmy uploaded a new video! Your MRE series is my favorite one~ I've watched them all 💕💖
❤️❤️❤️
I love the end scenes you add in. its like a little bonus
So glad I found your channel! Keep up the awesome work and blessings your way😊
Thank you and welcome aboard!
I’m really happy to see this video cause I’m from Turkey.I hope u like the foods and drinks.Thank you for this video❤️😍
the only videos I'm ever early to are food wishes and Emmy and that pleases me because they're my favorite
Same
I think the yogurt might have been to put over the chickpea /beef rice meal.
No. It is a soup.
They do eat yogurt with a lot of meals in turkey, but there also is actual yogurt soup.
erdal0 he thought lmao 🥴
@@rubydacherryiscute yes, it's a Summer cold soup/sauce with grated cucumber, garlic, herbs, salt and olive oil
Can't watch right now, but received the notification and already left my thumbs up 💛
@Ben De la R Grab your own ass pervert.
MRE tastings are my fav! That instant coffee filter thing was so cool!
8:58 Turkish here 🙋 you can't really go wrong with the food combinations here, it's even possible that the weirdest food item&combo you can imagine is probably liked by some Turks already. I even have a friend who likes to put cheese in her Nutella sandwich 😂
feta&nutella is an unbeatable combo (yeah, i am turkish)
@@d2d2505 omg are you my friend? 😂
I love that too.. Im also Turkish neden hala ingilizce konuşuyorsam şdkslalsd
Daleksavar M. salam ve nutalla en iyisi 😅
@@AslNDNG ya benim kardeşim de onu seviyo hala anlayamıyorum 🤢
I love the MRE taste tests, I’m always so interested in what other countries eat! Love your videos Emmy!
Walmart study has shown that the most popular food item sold during natural disasters is POPTARTS !!
What? Not vienna sausages!!!
@@Birdbike719 There are a lot of children in this country. Parents buy what the kids want.Adults like POPTARTS too plus the foil packaging looks like disaster (MRE) food.
The most popular Walmart food is pop tarts, other stores not so much.
Wayne Hasch Yuck, I hate pop tarts.
When we were hit by hurricane Michael we could get packs of water but not soda or juice boxes. Kinda odd.
I've been drinking tea lately, like im a tea drinker now, and i can say that when she said everything is better with a cup of hot tea, it is so true. I'll eat my dinner with a cup of hot tea and it's delicious. Doesn't matter what it is, a cup of tea goes wonderful with it.
hi emmy!!i have been watching your videos since the beginning and just wanted to say I love watching you so much!
Love the ration segments, Emmy. I've got to get to Turkey to find some of those coffee filters for cups! Funny today I opened a dried soup mix and spilled half on the counter, also. Don't know how you find time to do all you do in a day. Thanks for the efforts, as ever. Entertaining!
24:02 😎✌Wow,Lipton tea in a Turkish meal. Thought they had good tea as well as coffee.
# Looks like Emmy has a new camera. Awesome.
Eugene Cooper Jr Actually we have. Probably the tea leaves Lipton is using are cultivated in Turkey. But still you got a point there, why Lipton?
@@ninetailedfoxie I'm sure they could have been cultivated there. Just something I noticed. Thank you. ☺✌
These are so fun to watch. I'm pretty sure that would feed me for a couple of days!
Instant coffee AND it's decaf. You might as well just put dirt in your mug with hot water.
It didnt look like instant, instant coffee doesnt need a filter
Beto eats dirt... supposedly has a "magic" function. DeCaf is another word for dirt colored dirt, with the flavor of dirt.
shanidar was that supposed to make sense?
i learn a lot from you just with you’re vocabulary and the way you say things , much appreciated you help me more than you know ❤️🙏🏾
Those stretchy filter pour over coffee thingies? They sell those at my local WalMart for a buck! Pity the coffee inside is so yucky.
What are they called I'd like to try them
Apparently you can buy them relatively cheaply empty and add your own coffee www.amazon.com/Disposable-Coffee-Premium-Hanging-Filters/dp/B07GR6Z522/ref=asc_df_B07GR6Z522/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=241953480954&hvpos=1o2&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11043626720062105743&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=t&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9031263&hvtargid=pla-570675223624&psc=1
Miss Emmy, I would like to say your videos always help me to calm down if I'm having anxiety. You always brighten up everyone's day and are just a great TH-camr.
I do have 2 Questions though.
Q1. With all these taste test videos, what do with all the leftovers? Do you recycle them or use them for meals for your family? What do you do with them?
Q2. Would you consider doing an MRE taste test livestream?
EMMY.
GET YOURSELF SOME LIQUID SKIN.
It is wonderful for places Band-Aids tend to pop off due to sweat or water.
Learned that in the military.🤗😍😘
Oh gosh i remember watching your videos when i was like 12 or 13 and now youtube recommends you. Couldn't be happiert
Yay! Soooo happy to see a new MRE video! Please do more - these are my favorites!
Thanks so much for sharing! Have a wonderful day! 👍
I'm Algerian but I was born and raised in France where's there's a lot of Turkish people and I have to say for that they for sure have the best coffee EVER!!! And their food is just delicious 😋
You are such a bright light in some dark places for a few of us! Thanks for your content!
Omg that coffee looks absolutely brilliant I wish we had that in Australia.
i love your positivity when tasting all of these new foods!
I would have added some of the main meal to the soupy broth! Make a heartier soup! Yum. Loved the coffee packet, super neat
🍯and chlorinated 💧okay I didn't have that image.Emmy you are the best. I found your channel by TH-cam suggestions a few months back. Happy I was interested in your hard times videos.Keep up the great work.
I shouldn’t be watching her videos late at night when I’m starving 😂
Same 😭
Your videos are so good to watch after a big, stressful day! Keep doing what your doing! ❤️❤️
I think I want a cup of tea now!
PS Celestial Seasonings bengal spice tea is amazing
Jess Jess their peppermint one (something like mint magic) is divine but so hard to get in Germany! 😔
The tomato spread is called “Acuka” it is common to eat with a piece of bread and cheese. It contains herbs and is quite hot. Since then bread would’ve gone bas in a few days “lavaş/tortilla” is a good option. But i am not quite sure about the cheese tbh. They are sold like chips and you eat it like in front of the tv or netflix.
Thank you so much for trying Turkish foods again 😌🌼
It was my pleasure. 🇹🇷
Hi Emmy, there is a liquid that you can apply as a coating to your nagging scratches, Medtech New Skin First Aid Antiseptic Liquid Bandage, 1 oz, on paper cuts I've used crazy glue, and I've used clear nail polish in emergencies on nagging scraps that kept getting caught on things, but this New Skin is specifically made for skin. Of course, we can always slice a piece of papaya real thin and let it dry then apply, but that's another herbal tale.
Hi emmy could you try mre from Portugal?
In Turkey, the sting cheese is soft, moist, cheesy and littlebit on the sour side. They keep the cheese in salty water at delicatessens. When you buy it, you wash it with spring water but you don't really have to if you are okay with salty taste. The shelf brought ones are less salty and dryish.
Alot of the MMRs include instant coffe mixture,.. the cheap way. The one you got there looks like a grinded coffe. Probably has somekind of Turkish coffe blend into it.
Last but not least, you cannot go wrong with hearty Turkish style buffet food. Simple and tasty as always.
Me: "It's like moon cheese!"
Emmy: "It's like moon cheese!"
Jinx!
Been watching you for years, I love you!!!! Keep it uppppp please!!!!!
My favorite snack or breakfast is a peanut butter, honey and banana tortilla cut like sushi rolls!
Mmm gonna have my kids try this one.
You had me at pb and honey... will eat this tomorrow.
Also, Nutella on a tortilla and fold shut = chocolate taco.
Mmm I make those all of the time.. sometimes I use jam instead of honey .
I can't believe when she was eating the freeze dried fruits..she didn't say they were "FRUITED"...COME ON.. I was waiting for it!! Love these. Ive been binging for a week now. Lol
The best unintentional asmr from my favorite youtuber!! 💘
I loved the little coffee filter. I'm glad to see you made it back home healthy and well.
It blows my mind we actually have live translation devices now, we can just look through a magic lens at any text and read it. My inner sci fi nerd gets excited by it every time I see it!
After hurricane Maria, we were given boxes of these here in PR! I'm pretty sure they were US MREs. They were all pretty basic US meals and snacks. I loved the super big bags that had the breakfast, lunch and dinner! Now I know they are called 24hour MREs lol but I never once had an issue with the heaters. In fact they would burn me!
oh wow, I want them coffee things for camping.
Mitchel I’ve never seen that kind of coffee filter thing but Folgers does make coffee bags. They are like tea bags but have coffee grounds in them rather than tea leaves. Definitely a better option than freeze dried coffee.
There‘s a German company called ‚My coffee bag‘ that sell these filters. Not sure about shipping outside of germany though. They also sell via amazon.de.
I got their advent calendar for my husband last year and he loved it, they work really well and it tastes like proper coffee. 😊
Second vid of yourn I seen today 8-13 a Tuesday. When you mentioned *MARINARA SAUCE I about FLEW OUTTA MY CHAIR!!!* 1st time I eva had Marinara Sauce I thought I'd died & gone to Tummy Heaven. Just wish *I could buy it BY THE CASE.* I started supper watching this. I can open a jar and eat *ALL OF IT in 1 sitting no brag just fact.*
LOVE your channel...
I’m screaming at the screen, PUT THE HONEY IN THE TEA EMMY!!!!
I'm screaming at you, NOT ALL OF US LIKE HONEY IN THEIR TEA!!!!
I don't even like sugar in my tea, but rather that than honey.
Im Turkish, I dont like it either
Kristin U. Ryan hahaha right! Me too!!
