You enthusiasm is infectious. Menu 14 is my current favourite (fluorescent green fettucine) but I reckon I need to check out some of these. Thank you for your food service.
Oh man you gotta find this 2024 Cheese Tort - either one here will do but that cheese roll thing is just unreal. You know that fetidcine isn't all too bad if you have a penchant for spinach! nice alright cool, see ya
When i served the cheese tortellini was one of my favorite mre's. It was considered a vegetarian meal and those came with a dessert and a snack. Might get a pound cake and m&m or skittles and those were popular trade items, just behind peanut butter in value.
I watch your Mre pizza slice video every time I eat jalapeño chettos when you eat your Italian bread sticks with the jalapeño cheese spread . You make my day with every upload . Love from Canada. I miss the old peanut butter soldier fuel bars in our mre
Hey too cool I'm glad you could stop by and give this one a look. Livin it up down here in Florida - hoping it cools off soon because I want to go camping! Hope you can get some good sleep and take care. Will be back again soon with another review - it's an Estonian ration.
@@Steve1989MREOh wow thank you for the reply, look forward to watching your next video, maybe another one while you go camping. The wife just said she wishes it was hot here and not raining lol. Catch you soon. ‘NICE’

honestly, Steve you're a really thoughtful guy, uploading something people of all different types can enjoy on a day that is very divisive and stressful. 🙏
About the lack of coffee, I’ve been in the military for 10 years. About 1/4 of my unit likes coffee, and 1/2 likes energy drinks (some overlap between them.) The other 1/2 either likes nicotine in various forms or just sugary drinks. Over the last 2 deployments even less than 1/4 actually enjoyed MRE’s. Most of us packed energy drinks, preworkout, or nicotine to last us the whole trip. It’s an interesting dichotomy.
@@4R8YnTH3CH33F Which is still 1/4th of his unit that uses it. Many soldiers don’t even get to use their FRH and have to eat it cold because of hurry up and wait. Yet MREs are still packaged with FRHs despite being many times more expensive.
So amazing that you’re able to get your hands on current-year MREs! I didn’t even get anything less than two or three years old when I was IN the military! I hope the viewers appreciate how rare this seemingly “common” MRE is. And I’m very curious about the new outer bag. First REAL change in the outer packaging pretty much ever!
I stocked up for hurricane season this year, in part due to the great educational content from this channel. And you're not kidding. 1 scored 1 case of 2023, everything else I could get or even find was all 2020-2022.
I am so glad you posted a video. My stress level today is through the roof! Theres nothing like relaxing watching you do your thing. Thank you for the much needed break!
I love the little edits to musically tap the spoon on the glass. I also really appreciate how steve will gently handle things to preserve their look until consuming it like the apple pound cake.
Nice!!! I remember this one fondly, the old menu variant from my time I remember it occasionally had the original chocolate powerbar-thing in it (they seemed to randomize some of the components because they weren't always the same lol), all around a good package over the years.
Didn't expect to see you here. 😂 "USUALLY I DON'T SMOKE THE CIGARETTES, BUT WHEN I DO - THEY ARE AT LEAST 40 YEARS OLD". (c) from some of his old videos..
Hey Steve, I'm finally here to show my appreciation for the channel in the comments! Never thought I'd enjoy someone watching military food so much! Keep it up and stay healthy!
Hey thanks dude! Been a cool hobby for a long time now, and it's still surreal to witness how much people enjoy watching some dude eat rations. Will do and take care!
3:23 This was the most chipper, upbeat pronunciation of "radioactive toxic waste" since some luckless paper-pusher had to put a positive spin on Chernobyl.
Another Steve video so soon, that sounded like just the kind of neat and chill thing I needed before the family recipe ravioli making trip in a few days. Nice.
I would normally be all like "Aw, he didn't try to unroll the bread..." but he's always so happy about eating it I can't get upset. He's such a sweetheart.
Not sure I've ever heard someone able to describe so well and accurately how food can taste and feel like. English is not my native language, and it's always a delight to hear Steve's vocabulary. Thanks for all the (nice!) content)
Radioactive lemon-lime always picked my mood up out in the field, that turbo green puts a smile on my face and reminds me of Ecto-Coolers back in the day, little things in the field matter :)
So glad to see Steve is such tumultuous times, as unchanged as ever. Steve, you really are a beacon to many of us. In an ever changing world, you act as a rock that we all comfortably cling to, even if for just a few minutes.
Steve for President 🇺🇸 Let's get that country out onto a tray, Nice
nice!
Better on a tray than in a hand basket! 🧺
He'd have my vote.
As long as he gives the country a " Nice hiss"!!
Menu #3 chicken & noodles on every tray, nice . 😅
When we needed him the most, he appeared riding a tortellini steed out of the darkness
Followed by a nice hiss
If only I could like this comment more than once…

...Maybe you can do a comparison/compilation video
“Lookin’ extra saucy” is the positive affirmation I say to myself every morning

It feels so satisfying when he does the line about getting it out onto a tray, and I get to say "nice" in unison.
nice

Can we petition to have them changed to MRS? Meal, Ready for Steve.
Someone should make a bib with that on it and send it to him to use in videos
Instead of a use by date, you have to wait 50-150 years
nice
I love a cold night tucked in and watching steve
Lucky, it’s warm as can be still in Florida, home of myself and more importantly, Steve.
And a Trump win EXTRA cozy!!!!!! 👍
Steve's soothing voice, casual bag opening, and the stirring of army mochas puts me to sleep.
Steve has literally never put out a bad video.

True, but he HAS encountered some bad smelling/tasting meal components.

Yes! Tortillini was my favorite. I raided that MRE box before my squad could get to it
Bless you Steve. Thank you for uploading these.
Demoralizing Component sounds like an opening band at a death metal music festival.
i'm stealing that idea
@@itsdokko2990 Send me a copy of your first record!
Steve! You’ve been spoiling us with all these uploads lately. Super stoked to watch this one ❤
Thank you for your service, Steve. The service of making consistently comforting videos.
thank you for so many videos in less than a week. lets get this out on a tray is such a blessing today.
Steve is the gift that keeps on giving the whole year
0:11 - Relatable 😂
🫠
Yes!
I paused at 1:54 after seeing all these exciting new components to leave a hopeful comment that it pleases Steve!

I’m still puzzled why they decided to remove the coffee. Surely can’t be cost savings because I belive the crushed red peppers are new too.
@@robertoroberto9798 Because only a 1/4 of his unit was even drinking it, weren't you listening?
@@4R8YnTH3CH33F Which is still 1/4th of his unit that uses it. Many soldiers don’t even get to use their FRH and have to eat it cold because of hurry up and wait. Yet MREs are still packaged with FRHs despite being many times more expensive.
I remember the UK ration packs having tea coffee and some sort of dehydrated drink (usually orange or lemon) hot chocolate was fairly common too
Maybe they’ll freeze dry monster and put a can of grizzly in the newer MREs. Jk of course but it’s a real shame they’re not putting coffee in them.
when you hear the cats outside fighting "huh nice Hiss"
nice!
Nice job, Steve! I especially appreciate the close ups of the food so we can see the texture.
Hey right on thanks so much man glad ya enjoy those closeups
Love coming home from night shift to watch these as I eat my late night/early morning dinners, cheers!
Thanks for the late night upload Steve. Nice!

No news is good news.

I needed a break too
Same here. I was watching and thought I need to watch something else.

Love how you squeeze out every drop of that retort pouch!
No coffee in a mre seems pretty crazy to me.
