    8:04 quick clarification, when on expeditions n shit, canadian forces typically have a little 5 lbs gas stove with some small pots. basically just dump some water in there (it aint gotta be that clean if you dont plan on drinking it), shove the food pouches in, and let the water boil
    extra points if you jam the whole groups food pouches in there and pass em out randomly

    So to cook your meal bag, usually it comes with a green plastic bag. you cut the top then add water to the line. put your meal bag in it and seal the green plastic bag. wait 15 minutes and it will be hot. the product in the plastic green bag will react with the water and make it boil.

    For the best burger, in my opinion. If you're ever in Springfield, Missouri, for some random reason. There is a place called Black Sheep Burgers and Shakes that I think is pretty good. The cool thing about their shakes is that they make cakes and cobblers to put into the milkshake, and if you go to the sit-down restaurants, you can get the alcoholic versions. The blackberry cobbler is my personal go-to.

    Since this is a Canadian themed video, I should let you know that the best burger in Canada can be found at a burger chain known as Harvey's. By far the best burger you can find in Canada. Cheers!

      Fat burger (Alberta chain) is 10x the burger Harvey’s is lmao.
      Anyone saying Harvey’s or A&W have never had a good burger in their lives. That’s like saying Taco Bell has the best tacos lmao.
      Chain Burger: Fatburger (never frozen always fresh)
      Restaurant Burger: Jumbo Burger (Toronto),
      Ribeye Butcher Shop (Edmonton)
      The only chain fast food that makes good fresh burgers is Five Guys and Fatburger. I’ve heard Burger Priest and Wayburger are good too. Although Burger Priest scares me since it’s owned by Harvey’s lol.

    There was a place in Missouri, I don't know exactly where, but if you're headed north on I49 in northwest Arkansas going 45 minutes, or around there, into Missouri, it was on the left and you could get triple stacked burgers with bacon and cheese in between each patty all for a fairly cheap price and it was delicious

    My favourite one is Honey Garlic Chicken. I’ve eaten that one cold many times and it’s good either way. In the field they usually give us heating packs that you add water to and place the meal pack inside and they heat up. Often times they don’t work well so I just usually eat them cold. Also the date square sucks lol.

    Canada has disposable bags to heat the MREs for when you don't have a stove. Usually there is one in the MRE. Just add water and it creates a chemical reaction to heat the food.
