    Even though I’m quite late to the game on these MRE reviews, I am really enjoying them. As a long time backpacker I can appreciate the different types of food items.

    Oxo tip..! Crush the cube while it's still in it's silver wrapper, tear open and sprinkle..lol. I was 56 when I learned this... 😊

    Also, 2 survival bars, 1/2 cup hot water, 1 pack whitner, and 1 sugar cube makes a delightful pudding/porridge.

    • @KentSurvival

      oo, i have some over, may have to try this :) thanks

    As an emergency item it is awesome. I think they should have included a couple of small flat bricks or jell along with a few matchsticks in it though as it had room, and one half the container could be used to heat the top half if placed perpendicular to it.

    nice review Andy. got a couple of those stashed away in my garage somewhere...abit older then 09 thou. I think the handles are meant to go in an X configuration to enable it to be suspended over a fire etc. think there pretty bomb proof and great to turn into survival kit containers. All the best from across the water in Essex.😊

    • @KentSurvival
      @KentSurvival  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Robin, May try the x config when I next use it (sure i will at some point) but yeah, it seems preppy useful :) thanks for watching buddy.

    I almost bought this ration myself but it got a bit to expensive for me. Awesome that I get to see inside anyway.

    • @KentSurvival
      @KentSurvival  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey, it was a little much for what it is but interesting to see and i get a handy mess kit :) thanks for watching

    • @Oldsmokey1
      @Oldsmokey1 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Very true. That's the big plus the mess kit. Those handles I've seen added to other mre's kids to improve them as well.

  • @JimCrossan
    @JimCrossan 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi, your oxo cube. If you crush the oxo while still wrapped, then open it, it's a lot easier to open.. Tip for today..! 😀

  • @paulyshobbiesandthings4772
    @paulyshobbiesandthings4772 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    wow an excellent review of that flying ration I think they were kept in the ejection seat pack not sure but you could definitely survive on that I'm watching one on ebay to
    I love that idea you did with the ration biscuits and the oxo cube well done that man I really enjoyed that video and I'm so gonna watch it again

    • @KentSurvival
      @KentSurvival  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Pauly, there is a link in the description to the guy I bought it from, he has more (prob same as what you're watching though)

  • @MissLilithRain

    That was cool. Although that clump of coffee made me think of a piece of beef jerky.

    • @KentSurvival
      @KentSurvival  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      jerky would have been a nice addition haha, thanks for watching

  • @fixman88
    @fixman88 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Excellent review! The fact that it came in a metal container reminded me of the West German soldier survival kit that came in the thin aluminum box that was sealed with yellow tape; Steve1989 reviewed one and the contents were in amazing condition.

    • @KentSurvival
      @KentSurvival  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, Thank you... Yes, I have seen that review as well.. Loves Steves videos :) ATB

  • @rontorrence7905
    @rontorrence7905 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review, good idea to mix stuff together. I decided to sub, first time I have found one of yours. Glad I read some comments, If you and Old Smokey say it is expensive, I can only watch. Add the shipping cost to Thailand, wow. I just got a hold of some of the MREs from Cobra Gold. A lot of cases of US show up around Cobra Gold time every year.Original boxes packed 2017. Gonna record unboxing this afternoon and a couple of tastings at dinner tonight. Moma's out tonight, so Camera Dude and I gonna eat in style for dinner, gonna have that Chilli and beans, mmmm mmmm..

    • @KentSurvival

    New subscriber, just ran across your name. I subscribe to reviewers as I find them. I always enjoy something different, such as this. lots of coffee and tea. Food bars were packed quite well, wow. Broth, coffee, and tea looked very good sir. It will take A while, but will look up earlier reviews of yours. Peace, John, Magnum.

    • @KentSurvival

      HAHA, I must admit I was trying to be careful but yes.. it's pretty tightly packed in there. Thank you for watching

    I findnit incredably amusing that an RAF survival ration is 1/3 tea and coffee

    • @KentSurvival
      @KentSurvival  7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      True.. It should be at least 1/3 Just TEA! haha ;)

      @KentSurvival  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The link to the eBay seller I got mine from is in the description, he doesn't have any at the moment but may get them again, I hope that helps

      I would expect most music is haha

  • @RM-io7qo
    @RM-io7qo 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The strange thing about this MRE is that I'd rather starve than rely upon this particular batch of rations. Always assuming that one takes emergency foods out just in case, I'd rather make up a pack that could not only be relied upon as being nourishing, but tasty too. I think that I'm going to have to check out other MRE's too before making any further comments. Cheers, Andy. Take care...

      Thats a very good question that I cannot answer I'm afraid, sorry. Thank you for watching

    • @Jaybird196
      @Jaybird196 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Kent Survival Thanks, for the ♡ ! I suppose, the biggest difficulty in determining that, would come from the food blocks, as the rest appear to be off-the-shelf items, from a store.

    Good review but that faint repetitive sound is irritating. Ditch that and I will sub.

    • @KentSurvival
      @KentSurvival  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey, thanks for the feedback. I've not had any other complaints about it yet but will certainly consider it, I feel they can feel a little empty without the music.. do you think maybe something more ambient would work?

    • @agent1ful
      @agent1ful 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Your channel, your choice brother. In my opinion no music is needed. Your call.

    • @Bammyja
      @Bammyja 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think it adds to the video, especially being so quiet it makes it kind of lighthearted and breaks up the silent bits. I vote keep it! You could possibly turn it off for periods of time during the video maybe, might distract from the fact that it's repeating sometimes.

    Quite a pathetic survival ration kit compared to others you’ve reviewed.
