The only I thing I've always wanted to point out on how is Steve able to hold the whole tray with one hand without tipping the glasses. It's one of the most anxious thing I've seen
I was in the Army in 1998.. Chili and Macaroni will always be my favorite.. esp. with the tiny bottle of Tabasco sauce that came in the accessory pouch.. Nice!
After hurricane Katrina near the east coast in NC. We were still recovering from it and were supplied with MREs which really helped. My favorite was the cheese potato scallops one. Everything in it was fantastic.
US Military logic: ‘Sir, we can either add a boat to our fleet of 60 nuclear submarines our we could give all the boys a good MRE.’ *fade out to sonar sounds*
I get a pang of nostalgia whenever those MRE crackers come out. My grandpa was in forestry and his sector was supplied by army surplus, he'd get to bring home the MREs that were getting old and would always give me the crackers and peanut butter or cheese
I've checked out some of the other guys that do this but Steve's reviews are by far the best. His set up, word usage, he explains every little piece and and part of the deal. Has great catch phrases and has a very inviting voice and narration. To think I stumbled across Steve's reviees about 3 years ago just surfing TH-cam and going down the rabbit hole one evening. I stayed up till morning watching his vids. Keep up the great work steve. From one Floridian to another, I salute you sir. Oh by the way, if you happen to read this. I found a kinda wacky, weird mre on Amazon prime, it's called zombie survival mre or something. Anyway they're themed lol I ordered one for 20 bucks, it's the stoners pack lol. It comes with 2 standard mre pizzas, 2 packs of skittle, 2 packs of starburst both originals. I believe it comes with other standard mre fare. Accessory pack and suck, crackers and jalapeno cheese spread. I like the jalapeno cheese but the bacon one is tremendously good as well. When you mix the two it takes it off the charts man. Soooooo good! Anyways just thought you might like to check those out, as to add some content to your page! Cheers mate.
@@Jaytwisty23 , yeah... If the only thing you got out of that paragraph was "it's the stoners pack"? I don't know if the 'stoner' is the one who deserves the facepalm.
The hashbrown has now become an endangered species in the middle east due to human predation. Normally, the Hashbrown in its natural habitat flees towards MRE bags when in danger, however human hunters have taken advantage of this instinct and as of 2020, they have been hunted down to extinction.
Been having a rough time recently and then a Steve MRE video comes out...maybe this is the universe saying “I got you” Big love to Steve and the community!
Dude, I would have those Hashbrowns with Bacon almost every morning while deployed to "Undisclosed location in REDACTED". I'd mix the gross coffee into the granola cereal, hardly taste it and it was a pick me up. Really brought my mood up. If I got lucky, I had the Sausage Peppers on the road, the trail mix really helped on those long days.

I can understand the desire to omit dessert items, but it is a bit cruel to deprive the guys who actually need field rations because the rest of the Army in the rear is getting fat. M&Ms or a pound cake are a morale booster.
How do they manage to gain weight? Don’t they have to do some intense exercise routines or are they just eating that many M&Ms and pound cakes? I mean Steve is in pretty good shape but I’m not sure how often he’s eating MRE’s lol

After 5 straight years of watching Steve1989 I still love his videos they never get old please don't ever stop Steve you bring so much joy to our lives
I’m Chinese and I have had the full range of Chinese milk rations. I thought they were quite good. A specific type that’s pretty similar to mres actually was my only food source for a month some time ago. Now i came to Europe and tried this menu, sausage with onions. It absolutely blew me away. Absolutely night and day compared to what I had before. First thing that I thought of after I had eaten it was “no wonder the Americans are gonna kick our ass if we ever go to war”.
The musical stirring and the fact that he doesn’t acknowledge it is one of my favorite things in all of TH-cam. It just makes me smile every single time 😁
I don't even remember how I found this channel so I'm now convinced it was fate. This content is everything I didn't realize I needed and I am *here* for it.
I’m in the Marines and my unit still has yet to see this sausage one. I still firmly believe the hash brown one is on the highest tier of MREs and going to be hard to beat. I’ll edit this post in about ten years when I finally get the chance to try it.
These mres look so good I’d actually eat these for meals over TV dinners or even some regular dinners , idk why but they look really good Steve’s way of presentation
I'd rather see the sausage peppers and onions replace the spinach fettuccine of last year, while keeping the hash browns in the 2020 menu line-up. That should've been the ticket. Oh well.
Fuck the spinach one, my dorm chief got that one one lunch chow, popped it open and it smelled fuckin awful. He didnt even try to eat it and just got stuff from some other guys around us.
To me what's comforting is the thought of hard fighting soldiers sitting down for a dinner by a far out base, just settling down after a hard fought battle
I've always said he'd be PERFECT relabeling these as ASMR. He's got the PERFECT male voice for it. Right up there with Fredsvoice and The French Whisperer.
I continue to live vicariously through you, Steve! I like how you start out by tasting the meal elements on their own and then mix them up. I have yet to disagree with your flavor combos. Thanks for all you do!
"Sunflower oil.... That might go rancid in three to five years, of not well stored." :Steve saves two: Five years later: "Hm... Wasn't stored the best. Lets try those craisins.... PLAH, Yeah! Ugh! They're bad." :eats the rest: Twenty years later:"Lets try these again....Last time wasn't the greatest. Aw.. Oh yeah....Not right! It's Foul!!! I am NOT eating those.... Well, okay, just one...."
Wait, you mean you didn't know he secretly was solely responsible for getting the raid area 51 fiasco going as a ruse to get in to see what futuristic mre tech they're working on? 😂😂😂
I'm currently in the US Army and while in an FTX last week I had this MRE for the first time. However it now comes with beef jerky trail mix instead. I wasn't a fan of that but the sausage was honestly one of the best MRE I ever had.
As an italian who's grandma made peppers and onions regularly, I am deeply offended by putting cheese spread in it. On the other hand, as a vet, I totally get it and would probably do it too after a couple weeks in the field.
I'd venture a guess that your grandmas peppers and onions were in a different universe of quality and taste though! My grandma could barely cook unfortunately.
Steve's underrated talent is his music, his shit sounds like the hot new dungeon synth release every music blog is raving about. Drop an album on bandcamp, king
He's been doing it for years too. If you are into this sort of stuff, look up the first few Mortiis albums, ie everything before The Smell of Rain. Which is a fine album itself, but Mortiis went in a more goth/industrial direction after that. Everything before that is pure ambient dungeon synth music.
I was actually thinking Steve is the only one who's doing this quite simple (sound wise) midi synth formula, but then like a year ago I discovered that Dungeon synth exists, and hundreds of people are doing a very similar thing. Still want HIS album tho, love his compositions.
Gotta love Steve... such a gentle spirit, One of the best, natural treasures of youtube! I appreciate everything you do for us, Ive learned so much about history with you, taken us back in your time machine. Thankyou Thankyou! for taking your time, and explaining your experiences with us. Giving honor/memory to all the people out that seen war...Nobody has your humble and unchanging honest style! Your all class bro. Im SURE I speak for almost everyone here!
I'd like to think that some MRE companies do listen to Steve's reviews and try to improve where they can, because as someone else said in another video this is many times someone's last meal.
I mean that is a food truck it's a truck that has food on it so a deuce and a half loaded with rations would be a food truck cause it's a truck that has food on it
@@ghostface1529 If a deuce and a half has to be airdropped from a C-130, do they say that they dropped a deuce? (I am guessing I am far from being the originator of this one. Right?)
Steve - “this coffee tastes like flat swamp water” Me - “how the hell would he know what that tastes like??” Then I remember it’s highly likely that Steve has in fact drunk flat swamp water at some point.
Clutch, a better consistent youtube reviewer there is none. I was in search of this MRE since i came upon it recently...now im just gonna go and prep it, just can’t wait 4 more hours til morning
Honestly like, this breakfast MRE was literally my favorite, why not get rid of that nasty ass maple beef patty? That thing literally was congealed fat smushed into a brick
I, too, am recovering from a surgery, at home now. I find these videos very educational, but also very relaxing. When I was in the Air Force, I had the occasional MRE, but working on the flight line, we usually were given something called a “box lunch.” Served the same purpose as an MRE, but not meant to keep for any period of time-regular sandwiches and such.

I think this is just Steve showing off his 2020 rations that will make him survive the entire year.
Said it before, and I will say it again: the man is a poet.
"nice"
nice hiss
Some of the best ever spoon clinks with both of those Beverage Base Orange Type III s. Music to my ears.
Also some pretty cute taps on the top of the coffee
These last 2 vids definitely had nice spoon music
I don't even remember how I found this channel so I'm now convinced it was fate. This content is everything I didn't realize I needed and I am *here* for it.
The Army Quartermasters need to take note when Steve does a review.
If they did listen we’d have gussets on our food and drink packs!!
This is the greatest use of TH-cam I’ve seen to date. Well done sir.
I can't believe I reenlisted just for them to get rid of my hasbrowns and bacon
>reenlisting
Well that's your first problem lol
Thank you for your service. My wife is in the marines. And me, as her wife, am too scared to do that shit. Thank you
That Dodge Charger aint worth it any more now you cant get that good MRE huh?
@@thatsnodildo1974 you can clearly see by my profile picture my money went to a shitbox Tacoma, tyvm
@@pannacottafugo7777 yesss w/w
I’m in the Marines and my unit still has yet to see this sausage one. I still firmly believe the hash brown one is on the highest tier of MREs and going to be hard to beat. I’ll edit this post in about ten years when I finally get the chance to try it.
Get used to it bud. I was still finding veggie omelette well into 2019.
*rabid cat attacks him*
Steve- Nice hiss.
Then he tries to put cat on a tray
Steve meets a kitten: “Nice little hiss.”
Alright, now let's get its guts out on a tray.
Nice!
Wow such funny 🤦🏻♂️
When shopping for glassware, Steve rates products primarily on their acoustic properties.
Steve: "Nice clink."
Child: Mom, why is there a buff food critic tapping all the glass cups with a tiny plastic spoon?
Mom: I'll tell you when you're older, sweetheart.
I'm used to watching these videos 5 years after they've been made . . feels wrong being this early!
That's ok. He probably feels wrong eating food this fresh.
That's funny cos ste used to eat mre five years out of date now he gets them in date weird ok..nice
Steves videos keep about as well as the food he reviews tho so theres really no too late to watch one.
5 years old is still fresher than most of the rations he's eating.
Raskolnikov70 😂😂😂
These mres look so good I’d actually eat these for meals over TV dinners or even some regular dinners , idk why but they look really good Steve’s way of presentation
I'd rather see the sausage peppers and onions replace the spinach fettuccine of last year, while keeping the hash browns in the 2020 menu line-up. That should've been the ticket. Oh well.
I'm gonna steal all the spinach fettuccine mres and just light them on fire and watch them burn.
Ok Gondola Hashtagtwosixfourfivefiveeight of Benis City
Fuck the spinach one, my dorm chief got that one one lunch chow, popped it open and it smelled fuckin awful. He didnt even try to eat it and just got stuff from some other guys around us.
"I'm divorcing you Steve, your MRE obsession has overtaken your life. I can't take it!"
"Nice hiss!"
Lol nice
One of the most underrated comments I've seen 🤣
Nice...
i dont know if he has but he needs some merch with "Nice Hiss" on it
Anyone suffering with depression, anxiety or OCD, these videos are so therapeutic. Steve1989 is the only antidepressant you need.
To me what's comforting is the thought of hard fighting soldiers sitting down for a dinner by a far out base, just settling down after a hard fought battle
Side affects may include:sudden contentness or feeling of hunger
I've always said he'd be PERFECT relabeling these as ASMR. He's got the PERFECT male voice for it. Right up there with Fredsvoice and The French Whisperer.
@@jungleinsectspikewall4474 true
yoo right here i totally agree
I continue to live vicariously through you, Steve! I like how you start out by tasting the meal elements on their own and then mix them up. I have yet to disagree with your flavor combos. Thanks for all you do!
“Tastes like something you’d get at a gas station.” Steve, you’re awesome.
"Sunflower oil.... That might go rancid in three to five years, of not well stored."
:Steve saves two:
Five years later: "Hm... Wasn't stored the best. Lets try those craisins.... PLAH, Yeah! Ugh! They're bad." :eats the rest:
Twenty years later:"Lets try these again....Last time wasn't the greatest. Aw.. Oh yeah....Not right! It's Foul!!! I am NOT eating those.... Well, okay, just one...."
LMAO!!
Accreate
@@_hekken What?
@@swanningabout Accurate?
@@ecrradio7620 Accreate is standard Ebonics, for you laymen.
I just imagine him sneaking into an army base and stuffing MRE's into a bag before running off.
He doesn't have to sneak they just let him on at this point
Wait, you mean you didn't know he secretly was solely responsible for getting the raid area 51 fiasco going as a ruse to get in to see what futuristic mre tech they're working on? 😂😂😂
I wouldn't be surprised if he had his connections to get them.
“just gotta kill this guard”
Lol I don't think that the military would mind if that's all he took😁
I'm currently in the US Army and while in an FTX last week I had this MRE for the first time. However it now comes with beef jerky trail mix instead. I wasn't a fan of that but the sausage was honestly one of the best MRE I ever had.
I'd love to be able to get that kind of things as a civilian.
@@kriss3d I think you can buy them but they are not cheap
@@mm-qq7bbDefinitely not cheap, spent over 100 on a 12 pack
As an italian who's grandma made peppers and onions regularly, I am deeply offended by putting cheese spread in it.
On the other hand, as a vet, I totally get it and would probably do it too after a couple weeks in the field.
I'd venture a guess that your grandmas peppers and onions were in a different universe of quality and taste though! My grandma could barely cook unfortunately.
thank you for your service, sir
Did you italian soldiers eat MRE on a regular basis? Or field kitchens are more common?
@@adanzavala4801 I'm italian American, so I was in the US army
Steve's underrated talent is his music, his shit sounds like the hot new dungeon synth release every music blog is raving about. Drop an album on bandcamp, king
“Hot new dungeon synth” lololol
Steve’s spoon music!!!!!
He's been doing it for years too. If you are into this sort of stuff, look up the first few Mortiis albums, ie everything before The Smell of Rain. Which is a fine album itself, but Mortiis went in a more goth/industrial direction after that. Everything before that is pure ambient dungeon synth music.
YES!!
I was actually thinking Steve is the only one who's doing this quite simple (sound wise) midi synth formula, but then like a year ago I discovered that Dungeon synth exists, and hundreds of people are doing a very similar thing. Still want HIS album tho, love his compositions.
We got lucky! I heard "nice hiss" four times! and one "it's a real steamer."
Michael Miller & on his other video "it's a real juicer!"
😂
*Steve stares at canadian goose
Goose: hisses
Steve: Nice hiss
*30 minutes later* you can really taste the hatred of anything non goose in this!
and then 3 hrs later pulls the goose out of the oven and proceeds to food review lol
How many channels out there do you get to watch a man be so genuinely moved by hashbrowns and bacon in a pouch?
Lol, soooo true! This comment cracked me up. Honestly, a great summary of his channel. Thanks for the laugh!
"Tastes like something you'd get in a gas station." Without a trace of irony, as a positive attribute. Just frickin' awesome.
🤣 That cracked me up
If you aren't enjoying a little gas station food from time to time, you ain't living brother.
@@KrikZ32 Shitty gas station hot dogs are a fucking godsent from time to time.
KrikKiller Cheers to that
Idk why but I FUCKING LOVE gas station food
MRE 2020: Catastrophes, turmoils & disappointments

MRE 2020: Goes from cool niche channel to shit you might really, really need to know for 2021.
Just like the rest of 2020
I never get tired of "Let's get this out on a tray. Nice!"
Every time I open a can I think to myself, "nice hiss" when there is a hiss. Love a nice little hiss.
Fuck man.... a nice hiss REALLY gets me going.
What tins are you opening that would hiss?
except for in canned peaches.....
Me too.
@@ukmedicfrcs A can of pop such as a cola drink, a plastic bottle of ginger ale.
I’ll always be impressed with Steve’s T-shirt game.
RCcola04 good one
Right on
Dude's always nostalgic but also fresh
He NEVER disappoints on his t-shirt game.
I like Fear the (Christopher) Walken shirt one
Gotta love Steve... such a gentle spirit, One of the best, natural treasures of youtube! I appreciate everything you do for us, Ive learned so much about history with you, taken us back in your time machine. Thankyou Thankyou! for taking your time, and explaining your experiences with us. Giving honor/memory to all the people out that seen war...Nobody has your humble and unchanging honest style! Your all class bro. Im SURE I speak for almost everyone here!
I hope Steve has someone lined up to keep this going for the next 100 years.
@@ChrisCoombes After all the Mres steve has eaten he has gain a natural immunity. He is immortal.
He sounds like a gourmet reporter on a high-end site commenting on a chef's new effort.
I'm FedEx driver and work long hours and when I come home after a long day, I make something to eat and end my day with one of your videos
Honestly, for 4 years I cannot finish cooking a meal without sayin "lets get that out on a tray"
Nice.
I'd like to think that some MRE companies do listen to Steve's reviews and try to improve where they can, because as someone else said in another video this is many times someone's last meal.
"That tastes like something you'd get off a food truck."
Sure, if by "food truck" you mean a deuce-and-a-half with a bunch of MREs.
I mean that is a food truck it's a truck that has food on it so a deuce and a half loaded with rations would be a food truck cause it's a truck that has food on it
@@ghostface1529 you used way too many words just to say "a truck with food on it is a food truck" lmao
Word
@@ghostface1529 butter dog, the dog with the butter on in
@@ghostface1529 If a deuce and a half has to be airdropped from a C-130, do they say that they dropped a deuce?
(I am guessing I am far from being the originator of this one. Right?)
Steve - “this coffee tastes like flat swamp water”
Me - “how the hell would he know what that tastes like??”
Then I remember it’s highly likely that Steve has in fact drunk flat swamp water at some point.
What do you want him to say? The swamp had a nice hiss... 😂
@@nulltheworm it probably did to be fair 😂
Well, he is a Floridian.
😆
I love the implication of carbonated swamp water.
“Make sure to get some sausage”
Words to live by.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
😂😂
Other slightly sexual stilted phrasing in this video:
"mm... smells like a strong tang." 3:25
💀😂
a healthy dose of large sausage
Every MREs should have Steve recording instructions” bottom.
Steve's voice would increase morale 637 percent and render soldiers in "God mode" for at least 2 hours.
...alright, now put this out on a tray. Wasn't that easy. Nice!
"First, let's get this on the tray. Nice!."
Steve on a date:
Girl: "What's your favorite kind of food?"
Steve: "Ancient Babylonian rations"

@Jeffrey Zhao he spelt it wrong we corrected him chiillll
Clutch, a better consistent youtube reviewer there is none.
I was in search of this MRE since i came upon it recently...now im just gonna go and prep it, just can’t wait 4 more hours til morning
YES YES YESS!!!!! WOOOOHOOO!! Wait, wait, let me get some snacks and pour myself a drink.
... M'kay, let's get this video out on to a play.... Nice!
Getting a MRE with two packages of nuts is like Christmas and getting underwear and socks and that's it.
Trail mix and more trail mix in two additional packs when it comes to more peanuts and cranberries.
seems good to me, i the first one was the most appealing one i've seen yet
Now that I'm older I will gladly accept socks and underwear as a gift.
@@jimfarrar4925 it's funny how that changes over the years isn't it? I've also recently fell victim to that phenomenon 😂
Jim Farrar at this point it feels more like a blessing. You could never have too many socks.
“Flat swamp water flavor” Steve is definitely from Florida. 🤣🙏🏻
Or from Carlsbad, New Mexico.
@@BattleAngel-jj9hd nope, mate. He's from Florida.
We already have Florida Man, we need Steve to compensate.
Hes from Lakeland Florida
Something about the way he says "Now THAT is a breakfast." is so genuine it's perfect
Never get rid of the popular MRE's.
Just replace the ones everyone hate.
Honestly like, this breakfast MRE was literally my favorite, why not get rid of that nasty ass maple beef patty? That thing literally was congealed fat smushed into a brick
@@GreenTeaTheTea please! 😒
There’s just something about this guys voice that makes it somewhat calming in a way
I love how steve has stayed true to how he's always been
I, too, am recovering from a surgery, at home now. I find these videos very educational, but also very relaxing. When I was in the Air Force, I had the occasional MRE, but working on the flight line, we usually were given something called a “box lunch.” Served the same purpose as an MRE, but not meant to keep for any period of time-regular sandwiches and such.
