The excitement in his voice sometimes you think he enjoys it and then all of a sudden he's like oh man that's rancid! Taste like dirt! Gonna put that over here and save the rest for later!
Hello Steve, I am a Korean guy enjoying your channel very much. My grandfather participated the Korean war as a student soldier when he was 15 years old in 1952. He has often told me about the war and how tragic it was. Anyway, out of his war episodes, I always fascinated by stories about eating military food or rations supported by the US military. As far as I remember, he mentioned about US military 'C-Ration' saying they were so good compared to the Korean military food. He also told me he actually saved some canned luncheon meats for himself and family for later. Watching your videos, now I finally realized what my grandfather ate during the war and what he said look like. Thank you so much for your interesting video, and I'm going to call my grandfather to say about this today.

This is easily one of the best channels on TH-cam. They should put you on the military channel or NatGeo or something. You're knowledge of military rations is outstanding and fascinating...and then you eat them too? Awesome!

Today I was at a fast-food joint for breakfast and I started examining my extra sugar packet. I was reading the expiration date and who produced it, started saying things like "that's interesting", and "definitely"
"These aged cigarettes, they get a nice complex flavour" Well, time to store a pack of marlboros in a air tight container or something for 50 or so years
From the pamphlet, I learned, "in spite of widespread publicity, water cannot be squeezed out of fish by means available in a raft." Thanks for the tip. 😐
“We only have a small package! We need all important foods so our soldiers can survive in case of an emergency.” *puts in cigarettes and candy* "Fantastic”
Man I absolutely love how you are compelled to eat those things. The way you anguish over doing it is priceless. The way you describe the characteristics!
This one is really personal to me my grandfather fought in the Korean War was a pilot and went down right before the cease-fire agreement a lot of people think that the war ended it still going on of the war never was seen again so this is probably something was probably his last meal if he survived especially now with remains being brought back I’m actually having tears thank you for sharing that had to been open hard to open this
I have a fear of germs, and somehow I love watching people on youtube eat ancient, and extremely questionable food. I guess it's comforting to know that people can do this and somehow survive because it makes my normal life seem relatively safe. Also pretty cool to see something from the Korean War era, my uncle served in the military back then.
"one of my crown jewels, one of the most valuable and rare military rations i've ever owned." steve says as he breaks the undoable seal and eats everything
Aged tobacco is in many ways like wine. In the ARMY we would puff a cigar every so often. I took up the cigar "hobby" not long ago. I might have one once every 2 months in the summer. You don't inhale them, you "taste & smell" them as you puff them. I found out people buy hordes of cigars and "age" them for years before they sell them, sometimes 10x the original cost. I have a few I been storing for 2 years.
It's part of their "patriotic contribution to the war effort", ie; tax exempt bribe to the government to deny scientific findings and disuade the medical community from publishing common sense findings.
Steve is by far the best MRE "review" guy out there. New MREs are fun to watch him dig into, but the old stuff.. he'll show you what it really means to go "antiquing"
i was so stoned when i saw this guy's first video and i was so amazed it's a history lesson, a time machine, and the fascination of a guy eating straight up mold
I am addicted to watching all of these for some strange satisfying reason. When I subscribed to your channel just a matter of weeks ago you were under 60k subscribers and now you're over 100k! congratulations on that!
Oh damn my man, you are fearless! Hey, I told my girlfriend about you and showed her the 1960 Vietnam C-Ration, she loved it! You've got another follower!
WOW, ....first of all....sorry my english.....you are a so lucky Guy to have one of those packages!!!!! It is a very interesting part of history, and .....it would be so amazing to turn back time and taste one of those when they are fresh, just for comparison. Good Video, I had fun, and obviously you had too. Greets from far away Germany, henning
Nice to see this is what my father would have most likely eaten, he was a Korean War Vet. He also died from Lung Cancer in 1987, from years of smoking.
Jackwhoknows 😂😂😂i just went back and watched and i almost fell out of bed laughing as it just went "buzz buzz bitch, im from the korean war and you gonna get malaria in a minute" across the screen..im still laughing
