Always nice to see you do a video with Ashens. 😁 Also, Barry, just a side note: the *"Sambal"* thing is basically an Indonesian version of a hot sauce/condiment (source: I'm Indonesian). I honestly never expected it to be in a British MRE. Lol Oh, and I don't really recommend eating it by itself; like you said, you definitely need to mix it with other food. 😅
@@VekhGaming Oh yeah, I can definitely imagine sambal being in a Dutch MRE. 😅 @emmyploeger512 Ooh, that does sound delish! But to be honest, if you like spicy food, you can put sambal on anything, and it'll probably taste good. 😁
@@Olhado256 Oooh, that's cool, I'm always glad to hear that people are starting to try our Sambal in their countries. And Kecap manis (or sweet soy sauce) is definitely great, especially for making fried rice. 😁
@@mrbarrylewis I hope there will be many more of such materials, such as it was with the "Will it.." series :) You two have a great chemistry, which was simply perfect when it came to Barshens! :)
This was due to the Great Military Repeal Act from 1843 when the army finally accepted men called Edward, Eithan, Emmanuel, Eugene and Emmett, and they did feel a bit left out.
I’ve been subscribed to this channel for a number years, 6 years to be precise. I’ll be honest, recently your videos haven’t hit my fancy (not trying to hate just wanna give some feedback). The first video I watched and subscribed from was when you uploaded the giant toffifee. Not saying you should stick to that style of content. But It’s nice to see you experimenting more with the cheap vs expensive concept. But I’d love to see a new series eventually about cheap vs expensive ingredients/products and seeing if Ms B and/or yourself (with her buying certain ingredients for you to guess) in a take turns format and see who guesses the most correct.
I know the American MRE come with a way to heat the food up. One thing about the American ones is that some foods are freeze dried. That’s how they preserve things to last a long time.
Deffo! I do a 30 mile charity hike each Year for a local hospice and it's bonkers how much food I consume, literally eating stuff for energy constantly. Make quite a nice custom trail mix with m&m's and a load of other random bits!
@@mrbarrylewisyou use so much energy on the move as you have experienced. Also there is stuff there to swap as MRE’s with others. Have a look at an Australian 24 hour ration they usually are great stuff. MRE’s I have found quite interesting in a dietary balanced manner. They have often been very well planned. You have to make the food tasty and shelf stable. Its quite an art
Oh and look for the Flameless ration heaters. They are in bags you slide the food pouches in. You activate them with a little water, it will tell you how much. You get hot food without fire and the ability not to be seen
I'd imagine Mad Max would love some muesli, all we've seen him eat is Dinky Doo dog food and a raw lizard!. They've already made super concentrated juice Barry, it comes in tiny bottles.
In regards to the calories, I can tell you that when you're out in the ulu, working on operational hours, so lots of effort and next to no sleep, typically I would rarely have the time to actually eat three meals and would always have lots of spare left over, and I always lost significant amounts of weight too, no matter how much you tried shoving down your neck. In my time, I started off with the cold war rations, in tins, good old bacon grill and chicken supreme with boil in the bag rice, and the newer pouches came in about the mid '90s, with far more menu varieties than there were before. The biscuits brown, as bland as they are, were always eaten, because you knew just how important the fibre was for your system, and typically you'd only poop every 2-3 days anyway. Some extras worth having with you would be tabasco or similar hot sauce and curry powder.
@@martinoldfield7244 As you might expect, operational units are usually the first to get uniform updates, gear updates, and rations. Surplus stock (of tinned rations) was still being drawn down by non operational units, reserves, cadets and so on till at least mid 90's. Oddly I don't remember pears. The hot chocolate was always banging (both old and new ORPs), such a shame the garibaldi biscuits didn't continue in the new rations; but glad to see the back of cheese possessed and whatever was in the pate/dogfood.
@@martinoldfield7244 if the foil on the cheese possessed was compromised, which was often, you were left with a rancid mess that had leaked all over the rest of the rats.
5:12 regarding quadruple concentrated squash. They definitely sell it, I have a bottle of quadruple concentrated apple squash (1 part squash to 19 parts water) in my cupboard that I've never made correctly, always being way too strong.
I think you eat them as they are recommended. If they provide a way to heat them up, do it, because what you are doing is being unfair to the Countries they do provide a heating method included in the MRE.
For interest, about 30 years ago I was on a train and met a lady who worked for a food company. They were bidding for the contract to supply powdered soup for the ration packs. She said that despite their efforts, they had been unable to actually meet the requirements laid out by the MOD in terms of nutrition and calories.
"what is Sambal" is the opening to a good old fashioned fight on the internet :) hosted by Uncle Roger. At the absolute bottom of the list, and quite tasty too, is 4 ingredients combined in equal measure. Tomato Paste (or ketchup packets), Garlic Paste (or garlic sauce packets), Hot or Sweet Pepper Tapenade (or hot sauce packets) and Butter (or butter packets ... yes Ive done it with restaurant packets many times). Melt the butter, add the other three, let to sizzle in concert and you are good to go. Add it to a pile of shrimps on skewers and put them on the BBQ, paint some salmon stakes and again BBQ but really the list goes on. At the simplest, Tomato, Pepper, Garlic and Butter and it only goes more complicated/hotter from there (my local Dutch shop has a shelf with at least 9 different variations on the theme).
If you ever need to pour from something that is doing that backwards pouring spillage thing, put a spoon upside down over the pouring spout and you get a smooth pour. Life changing that was to me lol, even works on mugs or glasses without any spout.
Been there and done that.Although the "rat packs" back in the 80's as I served were a bit more "tin" based. Good memories of eating Compo on exercise.The lads and lasses have it a bit better though foodwise these days. Cracking video lads.
Here in Finland we have conscription and daily caloric intake is recommended to be between 4000-6000 calories depending on task and time of year. 4-5 big meals a day of pretty decent and tasty food while on base, out in the woods quality dipped a bit but still plenty of it. Pretty much never MRE's most of the time it was some sort of soup or stew when we were out in the woods
Happy Halloween! Hoping nobody knocks on the door because I literally have random bits here and not really prepared anything normal lol, perhaps some leftover MRE
Sambal is Indonesian chilli. It's quite nice, but as Ashens said, it's not really a "sauce" in my opinion - it's almost like a paste of sorts that goes into other dishes to enhance them, then it's fantastic. Raw on its own, it packs a big punch. Inside something like that pasta, it's a new level.
8:24 They're probably still fine to eat. I accidentally ate a couple 15-year-old US MREs, and they were totally passable. Granted, they'd probably been stored well, but they really do last quite a while.
The old 'Rat Packs' are/where the best and they came in a handy box. If they gave me that back in the '90's when I was in the RAF, I'd have thrown it back.
If you think a squaddie is going to be without tea making facilities wherever possible you'd be wrong! They've come a long way from the old rat packs (probably not all rat, MREs are often referred to as "Meal, Rarely Edible") but the biscuits brown have been a staple since I was a youngling. The drinks in the British ORP do seem to get a lot of appreciation from other countries as well.
HI Barry, following your research with these vids, would you consider following up with a home-mode recreation/improvement on your fave MREs? If you could make them self-stable there could be a futher follo-up to see how they fare after being vaccuum-packed/freeze-dried a month later?
Nut warning on the pack is good to see. I personally can eat peanuts no problem, but a Brazil nut causes me a reaction in breathing. Always good to be warned!
The military puts everything last name first, first name last so in the civilian world it's "Ready to Eat Meal." Kinda takes the romance out of it though.
Here in sweden our squash equivalent is normally dilluted 4 parts water to one part syrup but you can get (cheap] ones that are 8 parts water to one part syrup
As a veteran its designed to bung u up, cant have troops on toilet all the time!!! When i served it was compo in tins. All in stew and chicken curry were my favs, I was told the korean MRE is amazing
Strangely enough, the "biscuits brown" in our ration packs are nicknamed "arse-stoppers" by the troops. After a couple of weeks on compo, you generally do one or two "shovels recce's" (empty your guts) per week. Also, after the initial period on rations, you become bunged up and your first "movement" is known as "a pringles sh*t" because...once you pop, you can't stop! Oh, and sad to see they appear to have gotten rid of my favourite item from the rations - cat's arses. (if you know, you know...)
During the beast from the east storm back in 2018? I was staying in a gated community and our communal kitchen flooded. all residents were given 3 of these a day for nearly a fortnight. best things i ever ate there. also there is a band called Muesli... they're from Canberra
The attraction of the British ORPs for campers hikers etc, first of all is cost, when compared to the outrageous cost of the likes of one meal pouch of Wayfarer or Firepot at £5-£8, but also the nutrition levels at only 550 calories that they have, compared to the ORPs
Sugar with some meat, sugar with some cereal, sugar with some pasta, sugar cake, sugar in water.... there seems to be a trend here which might explain the 4k calories.
you are better off using the "Biscuit Brown" as extra bulletproofing than to eat it. the ones in this pack look different to the ones we use to get. you can actually bite these new ones. back in my day, there use to be a "Yorkie Bar" in the pack. those that are old enough to remember, they use to have a red circle with a line through over the outline of a woman. with text saying "not for women", as it was marketed as a chocolate bar for men. the one in the MRE had the same circle, but said "not for Civvy's".
I kinda hope that Stu does those outdated American MREs at some point. Or at the very least passes them along to that Steve guy, so we can experience that all-important nice hiss. All in all, pretty good-quality rations.

I would check out his channel but he hasn't done anything in months. What's his excuse?
I absolutely love all the content you make with ashens, Barry. I'm excited to see what you both do in the future!
Well Stu is busy making a film, but I am actually seeing him next week and probably soon after to film some more bits and bobs

Oh, and I don't really recommend eating it by itself; like you said, you definitely need to mix it with other food. 😅
Yea, I'd expected to see sambal in a Dutch MRE, not in a Bri'ish one.
Sambal is good in nasi goreng. Also on a cheese sandwich.
@@VekhGaming Oh yeah, I can definitely imagine sambal being in a Dutch MRE. 😅
@emmyploeger512 Ooh, that does sound delish! But to be honest, if you like spicy food, you can put sambal on anything, and it'll probably taste good. 😁
Ooh I love sambal! For some reason it's quite popular with vegans here in Poland. Kecap manis is amazing as well!
@@Olhado256 Oooh, that's cool, I'm always glad to hear that people are starting to try our Sambal in their countries.
And Kecap manis (or sweet soy sauce) is definitely great, especially for making fried rice. 😁

@@Possiblechange 😂
All you need to add is taking a big sip of drink, taking a long pause, and saying, “mmm… ROBUST!”
Nah, they didn't use a tray.
Mmm nice hiss
Excellent video, these MRE reviews are always entertaining! Always enjoy the collaboration videos.
Filled out the survey for you Barry in exchange for the great video, these MRE videos are some of my favorites that you two do.
Might be fun to try it both ways, split the hot meals in half and warm one half and have the other cold as they would on a march or whatever.
MRE originally stood for "Military Rations, Edgar?" But they had to change it due to complaints from people who weren't named Edgar.
This was due to the Great Military Repeal Act from 1843 when the army finally accepted men called Edward, Eithan, Emmanuel, Eugene and Emmett, and they did feel a bit left out.
Always happy to see Barry and Ashens
Thanks
I refer to them, fondly, as BAshens. Saves a bit of time.

Love this series! Keep it going

5:10 Barry, Tesco do quadruple strength squash already
Came here to comment this 😂
I just commented that myself before I seen yours 😂
It's almost impossible to put a small enough amount of squash into a standard sized glass with the ridiculously concentrated ones.
I'm pretty sure I found an 8x one once, but I haven't seen it again since. Maybe they decided that was too much.
Robinsons Mini. Allegedly 20 servings from a 66ml bottle.

HI Barry,
following your research with these vids, would you consider following up with a home-mode recreation/improvement on your fave MREs? If you could make them self-stable there could be a futher follo-up to see how they fare after being vaccuum-packed/freeze-dried a month later?
Barshen Stuwis has returned!
Not a surprise when Ashens said he had out of date MREs in the house. 😂
your right their is a musical group We're Muesli! A Canberran indie pop cluster of crunch!
