Hey there, everyone! Steve1989 here with another review and this time it's 2 1985 MRE's from Stickyfingaz.
These were some pretty spoiled MRE's and I for some reason ended up trying some of the Chocolate Nut Cake in menu 10 even against my better judgement and got minor food poisoning. Mt tongue swelled from the rancid nuts. Oh well!
My apologies for several glitches in this video - I tried over & over to fix them and took over 5 hours editing this, but for some reason I could fix one bug in the vid, and another would pop up elsewhere. I did my best to polish it up but it still came out a tad rough in my opinion.
This one is pretty simple - old expired MRE's.. not much to look at!!
ewwww..
Not my best quality video - some hiccups along the way, but it is still some neat viewing. Hope you guys enjoy it, and thanks for watching!
-Steve
LET'S GET THIS OUT ONTO A TRAY, NICE™
NICE HISS™
I'LL BE COMING BACK AT YOU WITH SOMETHING NEW OR OLD, ALRIGHT COOL SEE YA™ - บันเทิง
After Steve eats the whole nut bar: "Let's get this guy out onto a stretcher." *Paramedics lay him out*. Steve wakes up: "Nice!"
Sean McNamara Idk why but this made me laugh ffs
i feel bad for laughing XD
Idk why but I laughed out loud (lol) alot
Sean McNamara 😂😂😂😂
"Okay,.......Let's get this hospital food on a tray"
This has got to be the most laid back case of food poisoning I have ever seen.
I love how Steve talks himself into eating stuff he doesn't want to.
The ramp up while he convinces himself is one of the best parts!!
@@paddyofernature90 "I can tell you right now, this is NOT edible. I've had some serious issues in the past with fruit and nut cakes. I mean, I'm going to maybe give it a small taste test, but..."
It's actually the other way around. He wants to eat it. He verbally resists but he can't help himself.
Hahaha, he knew immediately it was a bad idea, but he was committed
I know, he’s the best!
"Oh great. Oh no. Oh shi-." Steve1986 1986-2015
Your headstone.
Jesse W you mean "oh, hmm, wow, nice, ohp, oh no, aw..."
Jesse W No his headstone will read "GREAT, LETS GET THIS OUT ON A TR.............
nice....
Jesse W thank god he's still alive Lmao
Lol awesome
I'm going to start a band with the name Rancid Nuts.
Too late. The 'Butthole Surfers' band name is taken too.
@@kabbey30 lol
Biscuits brown works too 😎
"Nice"
I remember eating these back in 90. A guy in my company actually found a chicken beak in the a la king. It was real I saw it!!!! lol
Lol you sure that's not some fisherman's tale? That's absolutely disgusting if not!
that reminds me of a few feathers i found attached to a piece of chicken in a hungry man meal
Charlie Kelly would of ate it
@@davidbrothers3788would have*
We ate it cold. Back then a heated version meant lay it in the sun or a vehicle engine compartment of muffler.
+gundog4314 Yes, we did the same thing, Out in the Sun at 29 Stumps, CA
+Steve1989 MREinfo I remember in Basic training on Parris Island, the drill instructors broke our "MRE Cherry"
and had us eat the dehydrated beef patty dry, no water was added LOL
+Charles Sweitzer I remember those days. When i was at Lejeune we transitioned from C-Rats to MRE's. I don't know which was worse. They all tasted like shit especially cold. No way to heat them in the field. Semper Fi.
+Matt Morris back then there were only 12 mre meals to choose from. I am not sure how many different C-rat meals there were. Did you like the Ham and Lima beans by any chance
Lol, my dad told me that to. Gundog,
did you like Chicken a la king at the time? My dad said he hated them.
(Food Poisoning) in the title...
This gotta be good.

(9/11 explained) (almost drank kool-aid)
Stephen Russell 1989MREInfo, are you opening rotten food in your room again?! "No, Mom!"
I was in the Army from 83-86. I actually started out with C-Rats when i first got to my unit. They were replaced with the MRE's. You get used to them to the point where some of them tasted good.
I served during this era and Chicken a la king was a real iffy one to eat then. We had 2 guys suffered from food poisoning from it if memory serves.
The Whisky Scout yep, very iffy. Many of them were bulged back in the day when they were “new”
Imagine telling them someone would eat them 30 years later?
Idk y I watch these videos but i cannot stop
gerardo aguirre same.
Another 1 here
You know why you got food poisoning?You didnt care about it that much,wanna know why?
YOU
DIDNT
SAY
THE PHRASE
"lets get this right onto a tray (jump cut) NICE"
On an unrelated note, cool name
Before that became a catchphrase.
Yeah he totally forgot that Important part!! Nice!!!
This was before he started saying that regularly
A brave reviewer, taking one for the team! Great job Steve. I appreciate your sacrifice. I still have a number of 30+ year old MREs waiting to be reviewed. I keep putting them off and they keep getting OLDER!
gschultz9 That comment sounded kinda gay
gschultz9 do you sell mre's?
@@kevinsantos1590 No answer. I guess he ate one.
AH! My era! I loved that fruitcake. I used t love that Falcon candy bar some of them used to have too. The cheese was really oily when it was new. I also loved the pork and hamburger pucks. I would eat them like jerky.
Please to open the meatballs! You've built up the suspense of curiosity now:)
Opens up bag filled with, apparently, vomit. "That doesn't look so bad."
What a life you must lead ;-)
The arc of Steve deciding to take the plunge was so gosh dang funny. Dude is a gem.
Steve man, I laughed so hard. As soon as you where taking those meatballs outta the main bag, I couldn't quit laughing. I've watched all your vids. Best mre reviewer on TH-cam. Keep making vids bro.
Steve, would you like to know how we heated those up so long long ago? Body heat. not kidding. you get an hour or 3 of down time, you sleep. And you tuck those packs into areas that coalesced heat. Such as armpits or abdomen or groin(If you're brave. those edges can cut).
Your profile pic makes me think you're a commando from the Vietnam war.
Thank you for your service :).
Bitoy Skii ikr
You invented the same thing my dad and grandpa used to do 50 years before you. That's just crazy. lol
Wouldnt it be warmest inside your colon?
"it's not normal..." says the guy who eats 60 yo jelly bars :)
Yeah well the jelly bars are fine so idk whats wrong with it
Trucker here. I've heated MRE on my dashboard. Prop it up, turn it / flip it every half hour or so. 209 miles later, it's lunchtime. I also used a hose clamp and a brown pouch to replace a busted wheel seal. Drove 93 miles to the terminal shop. LOL, they took pictures!
I ate the chicken ala thing and the meatballs in BBQ sauce in the field back in 1985 (USAF SP) and they weren't much better then. I'd forgotten about the fruit cake (shudder).
When I enlisted(1974) our Drill Sergeants advised us to save a fruitcake...as a survival ration. These were the MCI version.
Dude sometimes I worry for your health lol. I will be sitting watching pleading with the video "don't eat it!!". Thanks for taking one for the team!
“Crackers smell terrible, I’d be trying them if they were good. What the hell I’ll try them anyway” 😂 dude your stomach must be made of titanium lol
6:08 - Beavis and Butthead moment!
Lol that cheese makes me think about needing TP for my bung hole haha
Mmm mmm Yeah Yeah! What's going on Mmm mmm Yeah!!!
That’s hilarious
This gives me flashbacks to the couple of early 80's MREs I reviewed. Once those packets are opened, just trying to get through the review at all becomes extremely difficult. Nice work mate, I'm enjoying these.
In old MRE rations...sometimes the food eats you.
Heheheheheh
Especially the Soviet Russian MRE's!:)
Nice.
The way he defiantly perseveres through these mostly spoiled rations is admirable. But, ultimately I feel like he is dancing on the razor's edge of insanity throughout the experience.
These are ones from my era and bring back some memories. I love seeing all of the different reviews. Keep up the GREAT work, Steve!! You're awesome!
Lol! Man, this was fun to watch.. I've got more of these if you need to torture yourself a little bit more haha!
The catsup you sent me was perfect.. I would've been disappointed if it looked like yours lol!
Lol i was rolling in laughter the whole time.. It would've been nice if one of the meals were completely edible, but thats extremely rare. That hash brown looked very nice, reminiscent of the pork patty. I'll check what other menus i have left!.. Let the torture continue!
@@Sticky745 f×"
@@Sticky745 I know this is 4 years later but I got a case of these today and I ate the freeze dried pork patty. It was surprisingly delicious. Tasted and smelled great.
Wow. This brings back memories. I LOVED the fruitcake / chocolate nut cake / cherry nut cake "back in the day". Wouldn't even touch the cheese spread at a year old. Chicken ala king wasn't bad (albeit nearly 40 years ago). Nor were the beef patties or ham and chicken loaf. Sucked that we didn't even HAVE an FRH at the time, but it did fill the empty gut. Coffee was ok, and I did the mocha deal even back in 85. Peanut butter was the protein savior for sure. I do know that I couldn't WAIT to get back to mess hall for the eggs / french toast / gravy over all / 4 glasses of OJ and 4 glasses of chocolate milk that I consumed regularly in mid 80s Germany. Man - what a different time. @steve1989mreinfo - where you been? LOVE the vids.
I had this exact same MRE but I ate it back in 1986!
Heated my MRE meals by vice-gripping the foil packs to the exhaust of my M901. No one I knew liked Chicken A La King when they were fresh. Loved the meatballs tho. Always had plenty of Ramen noodles to mix stuff with.
I ate both of those menus back in 85-89. They were horrid back then too! Great channel dude.
ah, that 30 year old cheese spread is sebaceous cyst material.
that is soooo gross.😂
sick ass
D’r pimplepopper
It looks like a dog turd
Wow you have gshultz9, gundog4314, and Kiwi Dude in your comments..... this is like a gathering of the top MRE reviewers on youtube.
I really enjoyed this video, you sir are a brave man, I commend you.
"salt is salt unless it came out of an RCAF ration".... yeah that review was brutal, had me on the floor laughing, never heard of bad salt prior to that.
You should make a series called "Rations from Hell" reserved for those that are a crime against humanity.
Oh, Ukrainian MREs!
26:15 - A timestamp for those wondering where the food poisoning starts
EpicLPer thanks
I dunno... he starts to mention something around 18:47
Only time I've ever heard Steve cuss on camera 🤣
The Catsup looked like a piece torn off of a roof shingle.
Dog poop
By the way, your videos are great Steve. My son and I enjoy watching them together and are even considering doing a few mre reviews ourself. Keep up the awesome videos and thanks for being a bada$$ trying all the old food! You rock bro.
Mmmmmm, nothing like a gassy bag of fermenting meatballs.
Man watching these old MRE videos really makes me wish I had a compost bin handy.
a review from the pre-NICE period. I can see in my mind some Asian consultant guy in a wrinkled suit with a ponytail telling Steve to come up with something like Emeril's "let's kick it up a notch" or"Bang!"
and why do they keep putting cheese and milk powder in these things ?
my late Father was WW2 and spoke of how bad the cheese in a tin was
CAT G.Blondecat the cheese spread is probably my favorite part when it's fresh
That cheese spread looks like Poo
Hey Steve, I love your videos. I've seen them all at least twice! Anyway, I always loved these old MRE's from the 80s. I used to go to my local army surplus stores and buy them when I was a kid. My friends and I always thought that all the items that were packaged in them were cool! I always tried to find the ones that said not for flight, pre-flight uses.😂😂😂😂
"And, this is in my room, too! Why do I keep doing this, in here?"
Basic human decency? Some things are best done in the privacy of one's bedroom, if at all ;) .
+Steve1989 MREinfo Yes, you must! You must get rid of the must ;) !
Yeah, that's kinda what I was going for ;) .Just a lil' joke. But, I figure you knew that, heh.
That ration was older than Master of Puppets. Holy shit.
great album
+alex ulrich Ride the Lightning is better. But yes its a great album.
Are you Lars's brother?
craig cotter I wish, I tell myself that were related though lol
+alex ulrich lars is dumb for what he did with Napster, but I think that it isn't a good reason to hate Metallica's music.
If commented in another one of your vid looking for a certain MRE my uncles used to bring me as a teen n the 80s after one of them participated in Operation Urgent Fury and this was be of the ones I was looking for I remember the fruitcake actually being good! We had stacks of these in the 80s and ate alit of them but this was a fav of mine.Thank you for posting this and bringing me back to the 80s
Steve would be fun to party with. If Steve is a drinker and/or partakes in getting stoned then I could see him breaking out a bunch of random MREs and playing MRE Roulette.NICE
You, my friend, are brave beyond belief, I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos, its really fun watching you open up history :)
I'm so afraid of nuts becoming rancid after watching these videos.
Oh my, I had completely forgotten about the dehydrated potato patty..LOL..Great job Steve, Excellent Video.. Keep 'em coming
+Steve1989 MREinfo Yes, the MRE Fruit Yogurt Mix lol.. Putting our MRE Culinary skills to work lol
+Charles Sweitzer The needs to more videos of people demonstrating their respective field ration improvised cooking, like that :) . I'd watch!
I went to basic training at Ft. Dix, New Jersey in 1989. I loved the chicken a la king! It was one of the best MRE's I had. The ones you hated to see were the dehydrated pork or beef patties!
I attended Fort Dix basic training in Oct-Dec 1984. Basic wasn't difficult. It was doing basic in the increasing cold and then snow. I did not have the luck of of moderate New Jersey winter. It was a normal cold, snowy one. Worse, I caught a cold in the middle of Basic. I have no idea where or how I caught it. No one else in my platoon caught a cold. I think it was the sudden shock to my immune system going from Hawaii's tropical climate to sudden cold autumn New Jersey weather that lowered my immunity.
My stepdad was in the USAF reserves and he would bring me and my brother a couple of these when he did his active weekends. We loved them, we would hike out into the woods and eat ours. Fun times.
The chicken mess was one of the better ones back in the day. The ham/spam was good as well. I never had one heated, so I have no clue if they were better warm. Those meatballs were nasty, even when new! I remember when they came out with new menu items and there was a spaghetti that would get you 2 packs of smokes and a gross hotdogs in jelly meal on a trade! Haha The spaghetti came with a tiny bottle of Tabasco in the accessory pack. Oh, the memories.
We used to heat the entree on the top of a deuce and half. When you're in the field, you will or would appreciate it. You're hungry, you eat, you don't even think about it. We also took the instant Nescafe coffee and just opened the pack, pour it in your mouth and drink some water to wash it down. Sometimes, we didn't have the luxury of a really hot meal. You really can't know until you've been in the field. Granted, these MRE's are totally outdated. But back in the day. . .
SFC King (Retired)
I remember these, I was active duty at this time and I ate many of these when they were fresh. I remember half of them sucked even when they were new, lol. Thanks for the ride down memory lane.
“I’m determined to eat this whole thing. I mean why not, right?”
So many reasons, Steve. So many.
You should have a scientist do swabs on these to see what's growing in them XC
That cheese looks like something that will come out of a squeezed cyst! Yummy!!!
I was stationed at RAF Lakenheath, UK back in 85'. We used to say the best way to eat the chicken ala king was to put alot of salt on it and don't look at it when you eat it.
Both menus were a routine meal for me, among others, in the 80s in W. GE field ops in the FACP. Usually ate it cold, right out of the bag but on occasion would tie a line to the bag and put into an immersion heater (a water filled garbage can with a diesel heater submerged in it). That cheese spread is CLEARLY not what came out of the pouch in 1986. And the fruit cake/chocolate nut cake were much better looking then. That potato patty, and the dehydrated pork patty, were worth money.
My mom remembers this stuff! I showed her this and she's like, yeah yeah, I had this stuff in the army. Really wouldn't go into detail but okay. It's sort of cool I guess... gnarly cheese spread, looks like peanut butter XD
"Weird fruitcake that's kinda nice" Sooo, my old neighbor?
I love your videos! I ate MRE crackers/jam as a kid and I loved them. Your videos remind me of that joy
I joined the army in 1981, i loved all this food it brings back a lot of memories thank you for posting
imagine Steve ordering at a nice restaurant- food comes to table on tray- "NICE".
M'kay
That cheese in the first ration looked exactly the same as the chicken. Have you ever thought about getting sponsorship for your channel from Immodium or Gaviscon? Lol!
or the local ER
I remember eating fresh 80’s rations from Subic/Clark as a kid. They weren’t good at all, but they were a novelty, especially the freeze dried stuff.
I love it when he argues with himself!
I’m not going to open it I’m not opening it no way !!
I’m going to open it !!😂
My problems from that Era were from a two legged Nut-cake.
"Let's take a look at these meatballs."
*BALLOON POP*
"Nice hiss."
My sister loved the meatballs in BBQ sauce. I had watched your reviews for several days then I asked her what she loved/hated. She served in the USAF from 1979 to 1999. She hated the barf in a bag (Turkey ale king) lol.
Brings back memories of my time in the Army National Guard. After a couple days of those at Ft. Irwin National Training Center (NTC) in the Mojave Desert, and it gets old real quick. Absolutely would not touch the majority of that stuff. The only thing that was semi-palatable was the Ham Slices. The second-generation (Tuna With Noodles), which came out in the early '90s were a step up, but eating those day after day got old real quick too.
+Steve1989 MREinfo 12! 12? You guys were lucky! British equivalents had 4. Most of that was pork.
sorry for the olfactory attack! back in the day, this was the stuff! I was kinda weird in that I saved the cakes for road marches along with the cookie chocolate covered. I couldn't stand the maple cake.
I was really hoping even though you had warned me.... it's not like some of the best stuff is made anymore. Even if it was just for civilian MREs, some of that pogey bait makes for pretty good comfort food.
Mmmm... It's brimming with botulism.
“Oh! It’s botulism! Look! It’s totally bulged!” I laughed till I cried. Thank you, Steve1989.
that cheese spread... everytime its awful; reminds me of cyst popping vids. hard to supress the gag reflex on these. thanks for the awesome vids steve! much love
Really love your MRE videos. Believe me it was always called "Chicken ala S*#t" and never chicken ala thing. These are the MRE's I remember. My first ever MRE was a pork patty in December 1984. If you know or anyone else knows about the old school MRE "Gorilla Cookie" I am looking for some photos or video of them. It was an MRE chocolate cookie from the 80's and early 90's. It was a round chocolate cookie but there were two or three of these in a single pack and they were always fused together, hence the name "Gorilla Cookie" because it was so thick. You had to eat it that way because you could not pry them apart. I remember everyone always ate them with the peanut butter packet. Thing about it is, from what I remember, this cookie went great with the peanut butter but the menus it came with always had the cheese packet's. Seen some bad fights break out over "Gorilla Cookies" and those peanut butter packets.
I remember those two MRE’s. Two of the best in the case. They WERE good! Chicken ala King was awesome! The meatballs were great too. Chocolate nut cake was THE best! Too bad they didn’t last.
Pretty sure I've watched every video you have.. thank you, such great information.. had a few cases of brown bags sitting.. weren't too bad. Always an adventure. Hope to see some new vids. Nice.
just seen your video.....I was in the Air Force from 82 to 86.....there were only about 5 or 6 different types of MRES that I knew of.....the Ham slices were the best....Chicken ala king....meatball in BBQ sauce..beans and whiners and one other.....the cheese we used to call baby crap....the had dehydrated fruit cocktail......orange cake and chocolate chip cake.....fudge bar....and what we called John Wayne cookies, two chocolate covered cookies stuck together with wax paper you couldn't pull apart.
One small bite for man, one giant leap for ration reviewing kind......
Lol.. Your reaction "That doesn't look so bad!"... My reaction (dry wretching)...
During the late 80s and early 90s, the chicken ala king was my favorite MRE.
Served USMC 1984 - 1996 i ate those in boot camp and in the FMF I ate that batch of MRE not bad back in the day check the accessory pack there could be heat tabs .Or they could have handed them out to us .both of those were good tasting.
This is what we had in Jabaal with the 82nd on the Kuwaiti border 4 days after the invasion. They were out of date then! And the Army had the veterinary services test and sign them off. Try the beef slices (with veins!). We would trade the components individually because of the heavy calorie load. The nutcakes with military mocha were my favs in the morning.
What's the chemical reason rancid nuts are making your tongue swell?
Steve that cheese spread looks like something from Dr Pimple Popper LOL....
I was an old marine when I saw my first MRE in 85. 29 palms and I told my guys use lots of water but one guy passed out after eating the dried potatoes without water.
Wow. These mre brings me back to my time in Marines in the early 90's
There is absolutely NOTHING to be gained from opening those spoiled meatballs. Just throw it away - CAREFULLY. Or some poor animal is going to die.
I really only eat MREs while fishing, and I don't do video reviews. I'm sitting here right now looking at six full MRE's and five TOTMs that I'm eager to enjoy as soon as the water softens enough to launch my kayak.
Something like 100 magazine articles and two novels would argue that, yes - LOL!
You think an animal would eat it?
Animals are actually smarter than they look and will not touch anything that's gone off and is far out of date, unless you're a fly of course lmao
Burning it would have been better, nothing left to eat.
"Not gonna open this in my room.
Unless you guys want me to."
I'm reading the comments and watching this video over two years after posting but DID Steve open the package?!?
I can't find out in the comments.
LMAO
Same lol
HAaaaa...awww man! Love this! Been watching non-stop for like 2 hours!
that chicken ala king is the exact one i remember loving when camping YEARS ago. best one i had! but i remember everything in that MRE
I am dying to see what is in that meatball package sir steve.
We used to abuse neophytes with chicken ala king in the 1980's and early 1990s... and the fruitcake always tasted like a bicycle tire... it took bravery to eat back then, it takes massive courage in 2015.
Abuse how?
When I was a love, my uncle would sometimes bring me and my brother MREs after some kind of field exercise. We gobbled them up. One day, and I don't remember the menu number, but I remember the dessert was orange pound cake. That was my most favorite MRE dessert ever. Never found it again.
Hey Steve I am Binge watching all of your videos and are enjoying them very much. Also I have been searching around on ebay for the rations and such and I found an old 78 B-2 Unit for the us Army it is shy of $14 should I get it! (please reply) I am kind of a noob at this sort of stuff
