Yeah for real, I've been watching for like 4 or 5 years and he's dropped a lot of weight. I remember one time he replied to a comment of mine "yeah, flex seal isn't very high in calories"
Regular mres can be hit or miss but the freeze dry ones are usually pretty good. And Tyler, lol, cold weather mres are made to be eaten HOT. Solders are always going to have a way to boil water ready at hand. Plus all those hot beverages would be amazing if you've been outside in winter for a week
Excuse my ignorant question. 1. Regular mres have a warming packet that heats the food, so both “regular” and cold weather mres are giving you warm food, no? 2. How do soldiers in the field have a way to heat water? Don’t they typically not start fires so the smoke and light won’t give away positions? Isn’t the point of the warming packet in regular mres to be a solution to that?
7 years in the Army and I was allowed to light a fire exactly ONE time in the field. It wasn’t for warmth, it was to try to kill the mice that were eating our food at night. If you can’t heat whatever it is that you want heated in your arm pits, in your underwear, or with the MRE heater, it’s not going to get warm.
@@shaneh7519 regular mres are made so they can be eaten warm or cold and there’s more than one way to heat water than a fire soldiers get creative an upside down fire is a good example of that
Yeah no not always a way to heat up an mre fires aren't really allowed cause it gives positions away when down range. Sometimes we just gotta eat em cold and even with a heater in the package it don't always heat em up
Being in the Army and stationed in Alaska, I’ve eaten my fair share of these. After a few days in the field and those are all you have to eat when it’s -30 outside….they are amazing. But to just eat for fun…not so great. Also the winter and normal MREs are different because the winter ones have more calories due to your body burns more calories in the cold.
Nope, they’re different because it’s freeze dried. Standard MRE’s would freeze from the water content, causing degradation of the food, and potentially compromising the packaging.
Cold Weather MREs are all Freeze Dried, so you don't have to worry about it Freezing from the weather, there is also More calories in a cold Weather MRE,.. As for the hot water, Cold Weather ones do NOT come with a heater pack, If you are in a Situation where you are being issued these you will also be issued a Small Camping stove for your Fireteam (about 4 people) which you heat the water on,... We had to literally boil the snow to Cook out food
10 years of active duty and have never heard of a "cold weather" mre. Brown wrapper when it is hot, temperate, or freezing outside. And chicken Ala king or ham slice were the 2 best ones for different reasons respectively.
Dude cold weather mres knock the regular ones out of the water by far. They have a chicken and rice one that's something I'd actually eat LOL. But the reason for the separate ones for cold vs hot, is that the pouches in the regular ones can freeze, expand, and pop, on top of it being an issue if you want food but it's frozen lol
I love how tastes and smells bring back memories of a specific year for you. I'm the same way. And I loved your rant about coffee, I have to be really desperate for caffeine before I'll drink coffee.
A well made coffee is the best thing ever. If you don't really care for coffee, instant coffee is definitely not gonna do it for you. Regular drip machine won't be great either. Needs to be espresso, french press, or pour over. I do keep some instant coffee for chocolate milkshakes or hot cocoa though. But it's not good by itself, only for emergencies.
Cold weather rations typically have more food and hive a higher calorie intake because you burn more in the cold weather. I sad ally you’ll have mini stoves as well to heat up the water to cook those since it’s mainly freeze dried food. I enjoyed them when I did cold weather training in the Marines
Like what most people were saying the cold weather MREs are made with higher calories because in cold weather you are burning more. The cold weather MREs do not come with the heater pouch but they can come with tablets that heat water up. I never had a cold weather MRE but I had my fair share of MRE when I was in. MRE are more for you to get the calories you need not for taste. That's why people just eat them really fast just to put something in you stomach.
Just a heads up boss I was station in fort wainwright ak, cold weather mres do not come with flameless heaters. At a certain temperature those are no longer usable. We heated water using the stoves or a random person in your unit that is highspeed and brought one then nifty survival heaters
I never had a cold weather mre until I was stationed in Alaska and they quickly became my favorites. I still have a box of cold weather's and I've been out of the army since 2019.
Being in the maine corps for almost 4 years now, when we get mre's we are so happy because after bing in the field for multiple days all we had were mre's. They are really good when they are all you have but i dont think i will ever eat one just because. Id rather eat an mre than the stuff they serve us on base
With Tyler being the universal guinea-pig of all things holy and un-holy I wonder how he would react to a British army MRE to compare the 2 or perhaps go round the world in a new series😉😉😉😉
Taste is secondary to useable fuel for your body and shelf life. I'm a 10yr vet eaten plenty of MREs. Trust me I didn't care and everything tasted good in that situation. Wish people would consider the alternative (bugs, weeds, plants maybe a rat) rather then judge an MRE on taste. THIS IS NOT MEANT TO BE A GORMET MEAL or even eaten outside a combat/survival/desperate situations lol.
The military MREs last a while the retail bought ones are a little different. I’d love to know when that one was made and how you stored it cause it makes a big difference in how well they hold up.
The meal cold weather or MCW is a meal cold weather because everything has to be freeze-dried so that things can't freeze with having water in it before you eat. Also the heating element is packed separately.
Interesting to see how his palette has changed over the last 4 years. On the first one, he didn't love the hot chocolate and he liked the oatmeal and eggs. Now he loves the hot chocolate and hates the eggs and oatmeal
also not sure if you’ll see this, but with cocoa powder what we did in usmc training, mix a tiny bit of water till it makes a powder, put mre m&ms in it, and eat with a spoon, amazing
Dude the electrolyte drink powder is always sooooo good stationed in Vegas go do some land nav in the summer when it’s 115 out drink some of that makes my day so much better
I'd like to see a coffee video, My favorite is lavazza Rosso in a mokka pot. French press is watery . Filter is dirty but ok. Instant is horrible but convenient. At a petrol station I asked the guy for a large espresso, he was taking ages swearing at the maching thinking it was broken ,lots of grinding and perculating going on , he filled up a pint paper cup with espresso, and apologized that it wasn't quite full. it was amazing ,I felt like I was going to have a heart attack .
It's an MRE...it isn't built for pleasurable flavors, it's built to keep you alive. In an emergency situation with no access to a store? All you need is a water source like a river or snow, a piece of clothing to filter it through, and a cup or camping kettle to boil it in on a fire....that's all you need for the MRE to work and sustain you. They get a bad wrap for something so useful.
Bruh you’d be issued a 16 ounce 1 pint canteen cup. So 1/2 canteen cup of hot water. Also you will be issued a stove for cold weather operations. If no stove is available you could start a small fire. Of course being careful not to alert the enemy. You could also warm it on the block of a running engine if you had to.
Being in the Air Force for 5 years, I have had a few MREs and honestly I dont mind them. I actually knew a guy who would bring MREs to work and eat them as his lunch or even breakfast, just because he hated cooking. While I would not go to that extreme LOL, I do think that most MREs arent bad. Theirs a few of them though....that can and will put you on the toilet for a while...."Coughs" Chili Mac" "Coughs"

He can finally afford cocaine

Not alot, he doesn't need to

I believe the caloric amount is higher for cold weather also, or more starch.

Know a Steven Oliver ?

@@taylorwillis5556 Both of you are correct, you burn more calories in the cold due to shivering. That’s why the CW MREs have more food as well.
Title says "what's inside a cold weather MRE" First thing he says is its sausage and eggs. Well that's all I needed to know. Imma head out now.

I wish more people were vets they would understand how good stuff is when you don't have it
That hot chocolate put him through 10 years of memories in the blink of an eye
Midweek Tyler shenanigans! Made my day!
You’ve got a much more refined palette now that you’re a big time TH-camr/influencer.
Nothing makes my week like a midweek Tyler posting
Nobody eats an MRE by itself. Lol most of the time we swap items from other mres and mix it all together
10 years of active duty and have never heard of a "cold weather" mre. Brown wrapper when it is hot, temperate, or freezing outside. And chicken Ala king or ham slice were the 2 best ones for different reasons respectively.
I'm just here for the free comedy act!! Tyler always comes through!!! 😆🤣😂
Best day of the week when Tyler uploads

But the reason for the separate ones for cold vs hot, is that the pouches in the regular ones can freeze, expand, and pop, on top of it being an issue if you want food but it's frozen lol
Side note yes, we DO need coffee that bad lmfao, it doesn't taste as bad when it's below 30 in the middle of the night on a training mission
I love how tastes and smells bring back memories of a specific year for you. I'm the same way. And I loved your rant about coffee, I have to be really desperate for caffeine before I'll drink coffee.
If it's even relatively brown and has some sort of caffeine I will drink it especially in the field
A well made coffee is the best thing ever. If you don't really care for coffee, instant coffee is definitely not gonna do it for you. Regular drip machine won't be great either. Needs to be espresso, french press, or pour over.

Is it true that you can use upa lot of calories just from shivering ?
Noone tell him what's actually in the fig bars 😆 the crunchie bits sure are eggcellent huh 😋
Does anybody notice he still has the pasta up on the wall.😂

i just FREAKING love everytime Tyler drink or eat something that is coffee or coffee flavored
Now I’m hungry. Thanks Tyler.
Great show!
i been appreciating the random second channel uploads throughout the week 😂
Nice. Let’s get this out onto a tray.
Ooh, nice hiss!

"Slay riding" I have never heard someone say that other then in the Christmas song.
Best reaction to the worlds tiniest sip of coffee. Hahahaha.
Tried a few random MREs out of curiosity, not bad to be honest, better than I'd have expected.
“It’s actually semi-kinda good a little bit” 😂😂

The freeze dried MRE's are usually pretty good. I keep some around for whenever we get a bad snowstorm and whenever the electric goes out
Lol scrambled and eggs. Tyler cracks me up. I didn't even know about this second channel!
Idk what it is about Tyler, but he can do a video on literally anything and I would enjoy it.
Lol how long did it take for you to realize you already did this one? Love your channels
Just found your channel great video. The freeze dried meals are from mountain house .Subbed and like

"The sword never hurt." I think the purpose of a sword is to hurt...
Out in the field they have canteens full of water and they have some way of hearing stuff up
This was fun. You need a tray from 1989MRE
Cold weather mres usually has slightly more calorie dense meals that handle cold better than heat in terms of expiring.
“Its actually semi-kinda good a little bit” 🤣🤣

You tried this exact same one before and you LOVED the strawberry and cream oatmeal lol maybe it did go bad??🤔
Interesting to see how his palette has changed over the last 4 years. On the first one, he didn't love the hot chocolate and he liked the oatmeal and eggs. Now he loves the hot chocolate and hates the eggs and oatmeal
You make my day every time you post
lets get this out onto a tray! NICE!
The main thing I learned from watching this video was that I need a flex seal mug in my life
also not sure if you’ll see this, but with cocoa powder what we did in usmc training, mix a tiny bit of water till it makes a powder, put mre m&ms in it, and eat with a spoon, amazing
I had some of the old style of the cold weather rations while in Norway. I’m glad they got rid of of the God awful oatmeal brick (cookie) 😂
Being in the Army and watching you over analyze an MRE is hilarious. I’ll take the rotten lemonade any day
Dude the electrolyte drink powder is always sooooo good stationed in Vegas go do some land nav in the summer when it’s 115 out drink some of that makes my day so much better
I'd like to see a coffee video,
My favorite is lavazza Rosso in a mokka pot.
French press is watery .
Filter is dirty but ok.
Instant is horrible but convenient.
At a petrol station I asked the guy for a large espresso, he was taking ages swearing at the maching thinking it was broken ,lots of grinding and perculating going on , he filled up a pint paper cup with espresso, and apologized that it wasn't quite full. it was amazing ,I felt like I was going to have a heart attack .
Can you do a review on the eufy by anker hand held vacuum please I would really appreciate it
Tyler you need to review the cold steel knife Espada XL in G-10
You my friend have never been truly hungry..
4:48
Nice!
The face of instant regret on the oatmeal... Bad oatmeal is the worst.
This is the first time I see someone drink out of a measuring cup.
Oatmeal eater lol you rock man
11:27 "do yall need caffeine that bad?" yes, yes we very very much do.
Oh, Tyler 😂 you are special my friend. I love your content though.
Cold weather is likely more carbs to keep you feeling warmer.
You should be glad about it containing coffe rather than Pickles xD
Great Content!
Army brat here, we use to eat MRE’s for lunch. It was fun to see who got the candy.
Some of the mre pack I've gotten are absolute fire but even then it's mostly trading with the squad for other shit
Dry measure vs wet measure are two different sizes. The more you know. Keep it up!
Nothing Tyler has to cook, that is good.
It's an MRE...it isn't built for pleasurable flavors, it's built to keep you alive. In an emergency situation with no access to a store?

They get a bad wrap for something so useful.
Breakfast MREs are notorious for sucking FYI. I'm not fancy, amd hot sauce fixes everything, so I never complained about any MRE lol.
It’s dehydrated so the pouches don’t burst in your ruck when it’s super cold.
Yeah, they are supposed to kinda suck. It's survival food, if you're really hungry, and in a bad spot. It will taste good then lol.
Tyler, i'm so sorry but ihad to laugh, when you said "scrambled and egg's".🤣
Tyler: Doesn't know why people use Tabasco.
Also Tyler: Wears sandals with socks.
These are retail version not military one so no heating elements or esbit stoves I imagine
Looks like you've lost weight looking good my man!
What else did you think "cocoa beverage powder" was going to be besides hot chocolate? 😂
If you like the fig Bars get some fig newtons they look the same
Don’t ever by the scrambled eggs bud. Lol 😂
Dude, yes, fig bars are awesome xp
Missed the most important step. Getting all this out onto a tray. Nice.
Has this poor man never eaten a damn fig newton?
You liked the fig bar, try Fig Newton cookies!
The MREs are great and all but just wait until after a few hours. if you're military or law enforcement you will understand why lol
The difference between a regular MRE and a cold-weather one is that the cold weather one shouldn’t freeze in cold temperatures
Good morning from the Great State of Texas...Just a thought always carry some ketchup and hot sauce for your eggs...Have a good day and be safe
Trust Tyler to say a sword has never hurt!
Bruh you’d be issued a 16 ounce 1 pint canteen cup. So 1/2 canteen cup of hot water. Also you will be issued a stove for cold weather operations.

TABASCO sauce is amazing especially on eggs
You should try the heat poach that heat food with a bit
I would have mixed the hot chocolate with the coffee for an MRE mocha.

Boy do I love the metric system!
u wud b surprised how good some mre are
Want to try these mre meals or whatever
I mean, if you want to try more of the regular MRE's, let me know.
Why would he let you know🤣 boomer
The heater should be in that clear bag
Next time just mix the hot chocolate and the coffee together.
Watch a MRESteve video or two. Always start with less water and then add more as need be. A lot of things will be too soup-ie if you don't
