    You should try eating a 24 hour ration over the whole day and find out if it actually keeps you full and is enough to keep you from going hungry , it would be interesting to find out if it's enough !

    Do you know what I like about you? You're a healthy eater, but you're not a snob. You don't act like it's beneath you to enjoy the simple pleasures of something like kool aid and admit it tastes good. Also, I live for the last few seconds of every video. You're so silly.

    • @mywhynots
      @mywhynots 7 ปีที่แล้ว +72

      Totally agree! I like how she laughed when saying the texture of the turnover was similar to foods with a lot of preservatives, because it showed that she is food conscious but she doesn't react like "Oh this is so gross, I can feel the preservatives! I can't even eat it!" She's more relatable and respectful than a lot of people who do food-tasting videos.

    Just to more fully explain this ration, it is intended for troops in the very first day or two of combat - when you spend most of your time getting shot at. So the foods are very much "grab and gobble" rather than dine (if dining EVER happens in the Army, lol!). It's heavy on energy-packed stuff and caffeine, not so much on nutrition. That can come later, when there's a lull in the fighting.

    That gum is about a cup of coffee, but it hits you in ~15 minutes because it crosses the mucus membrane of your mouth, and is actually stronger than coffee because it is not first processed by the liver.
    Essentially, caffeinated gum was developed for military for the purpose of rapidly getting the caffeine at a higher dose with a different serum level curve.

    • @jessicadayla
      @jessicadayla 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      combination of National Geographic and having spoken with an officer coming through where I worked at the time in uniform. I was curious if our military had adopted it and asked a bit, surprisingly he was able to share more info than I would have thought "Its currently being looked into, but hasn't been put into use yet"
      As for the pharmacological aspects, biology background, formal psych education, well studied in psychopharmacology (which is really just pharmacology focused on neuro stuff). I like knowing everything about every substance that goes into my body, and as a transhumanist, that knowledge allows me to augment myself in ways I desire (knowing when to take what psych meds to maximize their usefulness, counting things like caffeine here too).
      The transhumanism thing extends beyond the use of altering state of mind for the situation, but also extends to why I have glasses despite having "normal vision" (it gets rid of the astigmatism and increases my distance vision at the cost of making my near vision slightly worse, the near vision is still good enough that I can wear them all the time if I want, its a slight tweak that makes life... more to my liking). I'm caught, when the opportunity is available, I want to replace my vision with cybernetics that allows everything I want from my vision, but I would not want to give up my natural eye colour for that.
      I also look forward to RFID chipping myself to make my life easier, and to be able to afford a neural headset to play with. There's a ton of other things I'd like to do, but on the realist side of transhumanism, its use of psychoactives (legally), future chipping myself to make my own devices and locks more secure as well as being able to control a lot more with the wave of my hand, and one of the already existing higher quality neural headsets because I can use it for so many different things that it pains me to think about what I could do with one (biofeedback being one of the biggest things).

    • @jessicadayla
      @jessicadayla 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      They get much deeper into the chemistry than I care for, I just need to be able to read the numbers, graphs, what they mean, etc. The chemistry is cool and all, but its the higher level applications of it I find interesting, like how adding small amounts of lithium to city water would probably improve sociability and reduce suicidality a small bit. The lithium thing, the number needed to treat may be quite high, but the number receiving it would be massive, and the number needed to harm is pretty damn high if you are using the levels that would make sense for such an application.

  • @middleC17
    @middleC17 7 ปีที่แล้ว +69

    Your mentioning that the turkey jerky reminded you of dog treats made me think of this. When NASA was in the process of developing food for multi-day spaceflights, they contacted a dog food manufacturer who suggested a sort of human kibble. This did not go over well. Other ideas included whole-nutrition shakes that the test subjects hated so much they poured them into the floorboards of the simulated rockets, and pureed foods in tubes. One of the first concepts were small cubed sandwiches, but the crumbs from the bread would break off and float into the instrument panel or into someone's eye, so they coated the sandwich in edible wax which had the unpleasant side effect of coating the mouth (astronauts now only use tortillas). I highly suggest checking out the book Packing for Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void by Mary Roach. One of my all-time favorite authors, and Emmy I think you would really enjoy her writing. She is really hilarious and the work that goes into her books is astounding. Thanks!

    • @adammetzger4182

    There are some companies that actually make dog food and treats that are made to be safe for human consumption. You should try some of those in a video. I don't remember her name, but the owner of one of those companies received a lot of publicity when she ate only her pet food products for, I think, a month or something. Maybe one these companies would even sponsor a video.

      Haha! So get this, Tati and Jeffree Star did a collaboration and people went cuh-razy with so much backlash. Then Tati had a mild breakdown and is constantly deleting any negative comments and leaving messages. Take a trip over and watch it and check out the comments.

    This is known as field stripping anything not necessary goes! Anyone that hasn’t had to carry a combat load thinks that we draw rations and just throw it in the pack. We strip anything not needed out.Rations and ammunition and any other over packaging goes. Every ounce counts! Stilllove you Emmy!

    "Now that I've had a second bite, they remind me of what dog treats might taste like." That's a serious culinary _burn!_
    And then doubles-down on the burn with, "This kind of shellac finish, this rubbery ball bounciness, and just the size of it all. reminds you of something Fido would probably adore."

  • @TheresaForino

    Emmy a little tip for the drink pouches, after sealing, and always double check first, food the top over once or twice before shaking them.

    She comes over so real and lovable. She is just a delight to watch and these vids seem so far from what I would have thought she would want to produce but she is just great at it.
    Well done girl and I hope you go far.

    My late husband used to bring ratpacs (ration packs) home from work for when he took the kids camping. The trick with the beverage bags is to hold it at the top and shake up and down. Only learned this after my daughter dumped one all over me.

  • @vizualblessin
    @vizualblessin 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    the initial reaction after the dairy shake had me laid out on the floor lol. my dad was in the air force and my brother an i found a box of these rations before.... we opened them all and ate the crunchy m&m's out of each pack lol. so kudos to you for trying everything

    These are given to Soldiers when they move out on "operations". We don't expect support from rear units. Previously we would break down multiple MREs focusing on food you could eat on the go (we dont expect we'll get time to sit and eat). We would also supplement with stuff we bought. Flavor isn't that important.

    You should fold the top of the drink pouches over and hold them at the top and bottom, sort of like a cocktail shaker, when you shake them to avoid spilling.

    when i was like 4, i came up missing for a couple of hours. when they found me, i was sound asleep in the dog food bag. i was so tiny, i fit inside those big bags of dog food. apparently i liked the dog food, and mama had a hard time keeping me out of it. i guess i had a lunch of doggie nuggets, and then a good nap. LOL!!

    I also got the BBQ pork wrap in an MRE with my boyfriend and I didn’t like it at all because it was so sweet!!! He didn’t taste the sweetness at all but to me it was an unwelcome overpowering sweetness. I’m so glad you also taste it too and I know I’m not crazy!

  • @brendanjohnson4931
    @brendanjohnson4931 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The MRE's I remember from the early 90's always had 1 hot cocoa mix, 1 instant coffee, 1 sugar and 1 creamer. Troops would mix them all together and eat them like a grainy pudding mix. That's probable where the caffeinated pudding idea comes from.

    I ate these at high altitudes, with heavy combat load. We were moving vertically with grueling pace, and these meals did the job. I even shared one with 2 other guys, and it got us by one mission. 50-50 for what tastes okay, as far as total contents are concerned. Also, the gum is a laxative. These meals tend to plug you up. Which, in the field can be good, and bad. Depending on how much you eat.

  • @amanacatandhisdog8836

    Like how you are so positive. The energy bars/applesauce/pudding remind me when no doze and vivarin caffeine tabs were very popular.
    Those are just caffeine tabs people mainly used on long trips.
    When my brother was young he tried milk bones and told me the different colors green/veggie red/meat etc all taste the same more marketed to people but same taste.
