Nice job Mark. Those are some pretty meager rations. I knew it was bad but this demo really puts things into perspective. I really appreciate you putting in the effort to assemble the NK stove to round things out.
So basically they have to hunt for themselves to stay alive? They probably squeeze the water out and save the tea bag to reuse during the week. Very sad how they abuse their people.
This was an April fools joke. There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE. Check out some TH-cam videos about their military life. It is inhumane to say the least. They are just fodder. It is so bizarre that I found it interesting.
@@becca318 yeah what a crazy world they live in. For a family who has remained in power and has been so oppressive to it’s own people is perverse. Have a great Easter weekend
I can believe it. I am fascinated with the country due to the unique circumstances. I’ve watched many videos of defectors from their military. I made this video as a joke to a fellow Veteran who was a Korean interpreter. I appreciate you stopping by and taking time to comment.
FINALLY!!!! I’m so happy your friend hooked you up with this rare MRE. Preparing it with an authentic NK stove was an excellent idea. I bet you were VERY full after eating an entire week’s worth of food!!! Good thing they supply a week’s worth of toilet paper too, huh? Ha Ha Ha!!!! The hand-drawn labels looked pretty good!!! Mr Kim will be contacting you about that missing MRE, or perhaps to discuss manufacturing some for his troops! 🤣😂🤣
Lol Russian MRE sugar pack and South Korean tea bag in North Korean MRE. BTW I know it is a joke video and North Korea does not have MREs, but that was a good one.
Sorry, just seen your comment. If you haven’t figured it out, this was a complete spoof or parody. I was intrigued by watching North Korean defector’s talk about their life in the army. It’s beyond believe what they go through.
@@MarkKratzMC Thanks Mark. I haven't had time to make a good vid in a while, but do have some not so good recent uploads. I have more rations than I'll ever get too so try to upload something once a week.
Hey Dan, I’m just seeing your comment. Yes it was a practical joke for a former that was a Korean interpreter. Although I am fascinated with how their military personnel are treated. I have a military rations and military mess kit cooking playlists. Hopefully you can find something entertaining and believable there. I appreciate you taking time to watch the video.
Haha 😂 I was about to say glad you enjoyed it cause now some soldier in Korea is going 2 weeks on one of those.
You’re one of the few who got it

Great video Mark thanks

@@MarkKratzMC .. Ohh you ARE a brat, you got me! lol I did think it was odd for NK. I know they're terribly abusive to their people tho.

Well you must be awfully full eating a week's ration, that was interesting, good job on getting the mre, be safe and have fun
Hey thanks for watching and have a great weekend. Yeah I’m still full LOL
Thanks for the video Mark. I love your hobo stove setup. North Korea eh? 🤠🦊👍🏻
April fools!
Meager rations for sure , classic April fools 👏 , thanks for sharing ,God bless !
Oddly that didn't look too bad at all-not sure it would be good for a week though! Everything in that packet we have in our pantry.
April fools. There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE.
Personally spoke to a high level NK defector who said he had never been so hungry in his life than when he was active duty as an officer.

Don’t sign me up for their army. Yuck lol
They don’t get a choice. There was a clue at the end. There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE. I made it up for April fools 😂
Nothing ever changes. Has anyone ever seen the USAF survival movie called, "Here there are tigers?"

Lol
Cool meal brother. Thanks for sharing your video.
April fools! There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE.

Lol Russian MRE sugar pack and South Korean tea bag in North Korean MRE. BTW I know it is a joke video and North Korea does not have MREs, but that was a good one.
Wow... Isnt that a OFFICERs MRE for a week?
super rare mre
Outstanding
The clue was at the very end of the video. April fools. There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE.
Doesn't look very filling, looks more like a snack than a meal 😃. Thanks for sharing, interesting.
April fools. There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE.
Watching you eat a weeks worth of food is surreal….. how does a place like this even exist? What year is it even?

Comments are turned off on your latest video Mark
thanks for sharing good video
There’s no way that is a weeks worth of food. That’s crazy and not very appealing
Did you see the message at the very end? April fools. There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE.
@@MarkKratzMC lol. Totally missed it
That very shocking this for a week best NKSO top forces on land so what do the pilot and sub crews
Sounds like you come from some strong stuff…..
special forces eat like royalty! haha! thx for sharing
Steve I put a little message at the end it was an April fools joke. There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE.
@@MarkKratzMC HAHA! you had me!
For 24 hour? Its approx is 750 Kcal
Perfect for gals who wants to maintain figure.
Where do you have the information that this ration is for a week? A day maybe but not a week...
I thought this was serious. Lol.
Fish On! Thanks for watching it. At least you caught on. It went over a few heads. Cheers!
@@MarkKratzMC you got me. Lol
A whole week’s worth of food? Wow.
Did you see the April fools at the end. There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE.
You have great knowledge - not a bad meal. I've seen much worse!
April fools! There is no such thing as a North Korean MRE.
북한의 전투식량이지만 티백은 남한의 것 입니다 LOL
A little late for April Fools, but well played sir👍
Well I was waiting on my North Korean decals which didn’t arrive in time. I appreciate your watching and taking time to comment..
FYI I subscribe to your channel. 👍

I'm not believing it.

LMAO !!!!!
Getting caught up on the comments. I appreciate it. It was kind of a joke for a friend who was a Korean interpreter in the Air Force.

That's not real
