Aasian Dais she has in one of her other videos maybe a QnA vid not sure but if Im remembering right its like a 🙏 like thank you or respect for this meal
Hello, I'm Ukrainian who also speaks Russian. And this is what was in those gold containers: At 9:50 eggplant caviar (spread). At 11:08 rice porridge with meat. At 12:15 stewed beef (real good if you mix it with any pasta). At 13:18 sauteed vegetables.
According to some guys I know who were military & ate these, making beverage from jam isn't unusual. The guys eating these things have lots of "hacks" for them.
Mesmer ASMR It works really well for some things and better for certain languages. In Japan it was really helpful for reading signs and menus. Not so great with full sentences or reading manga.
HI Emmy! I have an old hard-time family recipe that is extremely simple if you want it for that series! It's name is "Agolette" (Ah-johl-et) The recipe here is for one. You need pieces of Stale Italian Bread or French Baugette (all my great-grandparents were able to afford at the time) One half of a yellow onion One egg Preparation is simple: Boil a pot of water with chopped up onion. salt is optional. Once at a rapid boil, Crack your egg into the water. Wait until the egg is poached to a soft or medium texture. Turn off the water. Pour Take out the egg, and place on top of the stale bread. using a soup ladle, pour the onions on top of the stale bread, softening it and creating a tasty onion broth. you can put black pepper on top to taste.
S-0 Is your family Northern Italian? My grandparents were from Tuscany and Marche and we make something very similar. The bianco (white) version as you do (sometimes with a little grated Parmesan cheese) and another version with leftover tomato sauce diluted with water. The stale bread is added and allowed to soften up and sop up the sauce. Sometimes spinach or swiss chard is added with some grated cheese. We call this pane cott' -Cooked bread.
S-0 maybe Emmy could make an entire episode with recipes that use stale bread? There's a lot. I'm Dutch and my family used to make bread porridge using stale bread, sugar and milk (you can add anise powder/seed if you have it). Edit: I have a recipe book from my region of the Netherlands with three different porridge recipes that I could easily translate (one uses normal bread, and two others call for more specific bread that might not be easy to find in the US)
The outer packaging may have been in Ukrainian dialect, but the contents were almost certainly in formal Russian. I suspect that ration was meant for some of their southern brigades. The puree is known as "vegetable caviar" and can be used as you did or made into a mug of soup. The much prized apple butter is often just squeezed directly into the mouth. The kasha starch was probably pearl barley. Finally, as you learned, the fuel tabs have a very unpleasant smell when they burn. Great job, Our Lovely!
Hi, I speak both Ukrainian and Russian. They use different Cyrillic alphabets. By that fact its obvious that the whole thing is in Russian. I don't really know what you mean by "Ukrainian dialect," Ukrainian is a different langauge (acutally much more simlar to Polish than Russian). Finally, Google isn't great at translating either Russian or Ukrainian into English, which is why it probably thought the ration was in Ukrainian.
If you don't see a letter that looks like "i", the text is in Russian, not Ukrainian. Easy way for someone who does't have much familiarity with the language to spot the difference!
I second this tip. I speak neither Ukrainian nor Russian, but I do have working knowledge of the Cyrillic alphabet. Ukrainian has a letter that looks like the Latin I, and the usual Russian equivalent looks like a backwards Latin N. Both letters make the sound of the I in "machine." Ukrainian uses the backwards N character for a sound that Russian represents with a letter that looks like a lowercase b joined to a lowercase l.
Quick Russian lesson for food: *сахар белый (sakhar belii) is sugar, white *перец (perets) is pepper. болгарский перец (bolgarskii perets) is literally Bulgarian pepper, which is the Russian name for capsicum or bell pepper *соль (sol) is salt. *сыр (seer) is cheese *яблоко (yabloko) is apples, but nouns change form for case and so on in Russian *икра (ikra) is literally caviar, but refers to pureéd vegetables like zucchini/courgette *каша рисовая (kasha risovya) rice porridge. Also made with buckwheat, wheat, or pearl barley. Fatty meat with the grain and lightly spiced. *говядина тушеная (govyadina tusheniya) is beef stew. Colloquially called "tushenka". первый класс (pervii klass) means first class/premium quality *рагу (ragu) is ragou *паштет печеночный (pashtyet pechtenochnii) is paté made from liver. In all likelihood, this will be pork with other bits of the pig like heart and brains as well as the liver. p.s. Your Uncle Gweilo can't speak Russian. Just picked up stuff from watching dozens of Russian language cooking videos.
Emmy, I just wanted to re-ask you to please look into making Spaghetti Pot Pies. They were huge in the 50s-70s with kids. I always chose those over chicken, turkey and beef. You can't find them anymore (at least online). Just a request, and hoping you might notice it this time and consider trying it out. Thanks so much! (it contained a thick meaty sauce with spaghetti pasta in a normal pot pie crust, so good!)
The spread you were eating is pashtet. Pâté is a mixture of cooked ground meat and fat minced into a spreadable paste. Common additions include vegetables, herbs, spices, and either wine or brandy (often cognac or armagnac).
I’ve had morning sickness for the last couple of weeks so every type of food sounds and looks disgusting but the way you describe what you’re eating just makes me absolutely salivate.
That explains why Russian translation did nothing but changing it to translate Ukranian suddenly translated a bunch of it. Thanks for clearing that up.
Omg I just came across your channel once again I used to watch you a couple years ago and LOVE that you still are posting, you are such a breath of fresh air!!
That's a russian MRE Emmy; In Ukraine (and Belarus), must products come with text in both Russian and Ukrainian/Belarusian although I've never met anybody who does not speak Russian and only Belarusian. I also think this is an IRP rather than an MRE but theres no real direct translation.
@@lou-anne5243 MRE stands for "meal, ready (to) eat) and is probably a US-only acronym. IRP stands for "individual ration feeding" (food ration, but in the original words order), and is probably a Russia-only acronym.
Hi Emmy, hard to believe you have been making these video's for so many years. You are such a young and refreshing personality, your strange but entertaining video's are such a pleasure to watch, thank you, and keep up the great works.
Hahaha my mom used to put those wet naps in our lunches as a kid and they were always either lemon scented or fruity scented and I freaking loved them cuz they really do smell so good. The only thing I hated was, after wiping my hands off with them, my hands and therefore my food would taste like the chemicals in the wet naps. But Emmy, you're right, wet naps rule!!!!! And so do you Emmy, you freaking rock girl and I love your videos and your channel. Love your positive attitude cuz it's extremely contagious. Watching your videos always puts me in a better mood so from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Thanks Emmy...excellent commentery and in depth explanation...i ove military rations...abd yours is a real eye opener...as we do not easily gave Russian ration in Hong Kong...PRC...we can get British and US rations on the market with military surplus outlets...Cheers and Good Health...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
hi Emmy! love all your videos. just wantet to say the second can is something like spam in U.S. russians usually dont heat it up, but you seemed to enjoy it as a soup. the thing with potatos was a ragout. the patet was with liver an butter. what your phone translated as SAMAR ist sugar but in russian it's pronounced sahar. anyway great video again. thanks :) Greetings from Germany
Solling Li First, it doesn't do to criticize gifts or people who send them. Second, I think discovering MREs without explanation is part of the fun of the adventure ^^
Emmy could you try a universal yum box it’s $14 or more depending on the box you get but it’s snacks you get from around the world each month I love to watch you try different things and well these boxes are very different from the u.s. lol
Kim Coffman yes they are I love to get a box every month just too try it the box this month was super DIFFERENT. It’s from Taiwan 🇹🇼 and if you get one from there don’t eat the plum candy lol
The drak fruit bars in ration packs are full of fibre and sometimes some laxative to keep you regular even while you're eating all the very rich condensed food that ration packs are full of. We alsoways got told "If you eat nothing else, eat the fruit bar"
Alessandra Bozzelli First of all, that's a really awful thing to ask to someone who's clearly an awesome momma taking care of her kids. Second, there are many reasons why that could happen. Accidental pregnancies, along with not believing in or wanting abortion. Sometimes, people just have patches of hard times. Lost jobs, unemployment, the loss of a person who is contributing to the family's income. There are a ton of reasons someone may have children and money problems. But those reasons are none of your business.
Yours are probably the only videos that I watch completely until they stop because there is always some sort of little out-take, even if it's just you making a funny face. Thanks!
One piece of advice from this Ol' Marine is that when you hear up a metallic container w/food on an "esbit stove" to either "crack open" and/or open completely open your lid so that heat can escape so no explosions & also you can "stir" your ration portion.
I recently discovered your channel, and I just have to say you are so lovely. You always brighten my day! Love your detailed reviews, it’s so different from other people on TH-cam. Keep it up!
i love these mre vids! and just a tip for google translate, if you take a picture and have it on your camera roll before hand, go on the app and click the photo icon on google translate and select the words you want to translate- it worlds a lot better than the camera scanning :)
Who doesn't like some owl dish. :D But you're safe, no owls there, it said rice kasha on the label. As to that baby food one, it said eggplant caviar, I don't know if it's popular dish in the US, it has nothing to do with real caviar, but when you prepare it properly (it shouldn't be that baby-food-ish) it looks a bit like a caviar, because of eggplant's seeds. That cheese was cheese indeed, processed cheese. Stew was beef stew and the last one of the heated meals was ragout, and pate was with butter. Anyway, strange Google Translate didn't translated it from Russian, since it's most certainly Russian. Great video. :D
I wonder if the tomato 'stuff' was a soup base? It resembled concentrated tinned tomato soup and meant to be diluted a touch and drank/eaten. Further on in the video you probably could have combined the potato tin stuff for a veg soup. Fascinating
It`s an eggplant puree/paste, trust me. Though I guess you can indeed make some kind of a nice soup out of it. Say, by mixing it with hot water and stewed beef.
I am SO enjoying this channel! What a unique and entertaining concept- keep up the awesome job! lol it is like a history lesson, food critique with a nice compassionate perspective!
Hi Miss Emmy! What you have here is a Russian ration known as an "IRP" also known as a "ИРП" "Индивидуальный рацион питания" meaning essentially a individual food ration. This is a 24 hour ration. Other Russian "MREs" that you see are "ОРП" or "одноразовые рацион питания" which is an "ORP" and is translated loosely as a one-time use ration, they are a one meal ration as opposed to the 24-hour ration. Hope this helps.
Brute Better *tries not to barf after i ate a russian irp* *huhhhhhhhhhh (sound of me barfing), comes back to the phone, continues scrolling through comments and watching the video and hopes what i just read amd threw up to is not true*
Great video. As as fellow canner, I'm with you. Make any canned food a few times and you start to appriciate all those colorful jars in your grandma's pantry and basement. ☺
Never see negative comments on your videos! Such a positive vibe you give off! I’ve been a subscriber for 2 Years now and to this day, have no regrets! You’re amazing! Peace.
Your MRE videos are my favourite and I’ve happily watched every single one you’ve ever made. I’m hoping to order my own very very soon with my birthday money 😄
Emmy, Your ability to describe what you are seeing, smelling and tasting is amazing. Did you have any special training in the field? You are also very brave to put half of that stuff into your mouth and try to eat it.....
Being raised by a Filipino mom, a great treat she would make for me was this avocado dessert. Idk if it has a specific name, but to make it mash 2 avocados, add 1 can of sweetened condensed milk, crushed ice, and mix it together. It would mean the WORLD to me if you made this avocado treat in one of you videos!
Marshmallow yes Emmy, make this. I’ve heard of it before, and as a Mexican I’m very curious in the use of avocado in this dessert. Would love to see it.
Hi Emmy! I saw someone steam the normal ration pack breads over the boiling water used to heat the main meals...it ended up being much fluffier...you should give it a go ☺
They look so much better than US MREs, cos for one, they actually use food, not a series of chemicals made up to resemble something that could be mistaken as food... :P
twocvbloke you aren’t wrong, my man. After about a day of eating US MRE’s they all start to taste the same. Doing joint stuff with partner nations has really started to make me realize that Natick just wants us to eat dog food.
I've tried 4 different US MREs so far (two of which I showed on my Rotten Shed channel), and you're right, they tend to taste "the same", and not good quality. Even British ration packs are filling up with the same US MRE stuff, and that is just awful!! Compare that to Lithuanian MREs though (the only other ration I've tried), it's night and day, the Lithuanian ones taste like food, still looks like dog food, but the flavours are so much nicer!!
What I like is this vid came out on my brothers surprise birthday party and we had it at a military home! I saw an MRE in there and immediately thought of you! And funny enough you post an MRE video on that day!
I have noticed watching the 6 or so mre channels I watch that many of the other countries, mainly northern, Russia, canada, Ukraine Poland etc, all seem to be fatty meat heavy. A lot more food and seem to be healthier than our mre. Also on the sugar i wonder if it's beet sugar ?
A lot of European rations also seem to have pate in it too. But yeah, like Emmy said it was definitely the kind of fatty food that you need for a cold climate.
I think those smelled more of baby wipes which usually aren’t as perfumed. I do love when Emmy says that the lemon scented wipes remind her of when her mom would take care to KFC as a little girl cause I have the same memories :)
Recently discovered your channel and I’ve been binge watching while recovering from having my gallbladder removed. I also discovered Steve1989! From one of your followers. His videos on MRE’s are fascinating. I’ve also been loving your crazy retro recipes!
hey emmy i love your videos and have been watching for a while! i have a suggestion: I would love if you could put in a picture or small clip of the item or section of one of your own/other people's videos whenever you refer to them e.g. when something resembles something you've seen before. I get curious and sometimes I do go outwardly look for it or have already watched the clip so vaguely remember it but it helps if its all in once place. Thanks for these relaxing videos ! Because of you I always say "Itadakimasu" before I eat lol its become a habit
It's a RUSSIAN IRP. Thanks everyone for the confirmation.
emmymadeinjapan hey emma. Love your videos btw can u translate what u say before u eat someting
with a russian ration you can count on most of the meats being beef or pork.
Also the "water puerifying tablet was actually a vitamin.
Aasian Dais she has in one of her other videos maybe a QnA vid not sure but if Im remembering right its like a 🙏 like thank you or respect for this meal

that app works better if you aren't live translating it. If you just take pictures of it, it works so much better.
What app is it? I've been looking for one like it ever sense Word Lens was taken off the market :(
Mesmer ASMR It's Google Translate. They bought out Word Lens and started using the tech.
Oh balls I hate GT -_- Their app is a train wreck. Thanks anyway tho.
It also works better if you use the correct language 😂
Mesmer ASMR It works really well for some things and better for certain languages. In Japan it was really helpful for reading signs and menus. Not so great with full sentences or reading manga.

HI Emmy!
I have an old hard-time family recipe that is extremely simple if you want it for that series!
It's name is "Agolette" (Ah-johl-et) The recipe here is for one.
You need pieces of Stale Italian Bread or French Baugette (all my great-grandparents were able to afford at the time)
One half of a yellow onion
One egg
Preparation is simple:
Boil a pot of water with chopped up onion. salt is optional. Once at a rapid boil, Crack your egg into the water. Wait until the egg is poached to a soft or medium texture. Turn off the water. Pour Take out the egg, and place on top of the stale bread. using a soup ladle, pour the onions on top of the stale bread, softening it and creating a tasty onion broth. you can put black pepper on top to taste.
S-0 Is your family Northern Italian? My grandparents were from Tuscany and Marche and we make something very similar. The bianco (white) version as you do (sometimes with a little grated Parmesan cheese) and another version with leftover tomato sauce diluted with water. The stale bread is added and allowed to soften up and sop up the sauce. Sometimes spinach or swiss chard is added with some grated cheese. We call this pane cott' -Cooked bread.
Oso Canin my great grandmother is of Northern Italian descent, actually! Those versions sound delicious! I will need to try them some time!
That sounds yummy :)
S-0 maybe Emmy could make an entire episode with recipes that use stale bread? There's a lot. I'm Dutch and my family used to make bread porridge using stale bread, sugar and milk (you can add anise powder/seed if you have it).

My dad family is from Sicily and we had something similar. Only difference is the bread was never stale.
The outer packaging may have been in Ukrainian dialect, but the contents were almost certainly in formal Russian. I suspect that ration was meant for some of their southern brigades. The puree is known as "vegetable caviar" and can be used as you did or made into a mug of soup. The much prized apple butter is often just squeezed directly into the mouth. The kasha starch was probably pearl barley. Finally, as you learned, the fuel tabs have a very unpleasant smell when they burn. Great job, Our Lovely!
Rocky Raab the outer packaging is also in Russian. I paused it to read and you can see it’s from Moscow I believe
Hi, I speak both Ukrainian and Russian. They use different Cyrillic alphabets. By that fact its obvious that the whole thing is in Russian. I don't really know what you mean by "Ukrainian dialect," Ukrainian is a different langauge (acutally much more simlar to Polish than Russian).

Emmy, you can put your fuel stove on an inverted shallow baking tray, and not worry about it scorching the counter top.
Emmy could you try a universal yum box it’s $14 or more depending on the box you get but it’s snacks you get from around the world each month I love to watch you try different things and well these boxes are very different from the u.s. lol
Hannah Cox my dad did those! They’re awesome, aren’t they?
Kim Coffman yes they are I love to get a box every month just too try it the box this month was super DIFFERENT. It’s from Taiwan 🇹🇼 and if you get one from there don’t eat the plum candy lol

I admire how she just dives right in.
The drak fruit bars in ration packs are full of fibre and sometimes some laxative to keep you regular even while you're eating all the very rich condensed food that ration packs are full of. We alsoways got told "If you eat nothing else, eat the fruit bar"

I love your descriptions of odors and tastes.
As someone who has gone without food just so my kids can eat, all of that food looks delicious!! I would love those rations.
April Manint you’re a great mom

One piece of advice from this Ol' Marine is that when you hear up a metallic container w/food on an "esbit stove" to either "crack open" and/or open completely open your lid so that heat can escape so no explosions & also you can "stir" your ration portion.
I recently discovered your channel, and I just have to say you are so lovely. You always brighten my day! Love your detailed reviews, it’s so different from other people on TH-cam. Keep it up!
She is one of the few that always has positive comments. And she keeps bees and chickens 😀💛
i love these mre vids! and just a tip for google translate, if you take a picture and have it on your camera roll before hand, go on the app and click the photo icon on google translate and select the words you want to translate- it worlds a lot better than the camera scanning :)
Who doesn't like some owl dish. :D But you're safe, no owls there, it said rice kasha on the label. As to that baby food one, it said eggplant caviar, I don't know if it's popular dish in the US, it has nothing to do with real caviar, but when you prepare it properly (it shouldn't be that baby-food-ish) it looks a bit like a caviar, because of eggplant's seeds. That cheese was cheese indeed, processed cheese. Stew was beef stew and the last one of the heated meals was ragout, and pate was with butter. Anyway, strange Google Translate didn't translated it from Russian, since it's most certainly Russian. Great video. :D
serczykowski Owl gets stuck in my teeth
Thanks so much for all the info. 😅
I just ❤️ your videos!!!! Your so sweet and soft spoken
I wonder if the tomato 'stuff' was a soup base? It resembled concentrated tinned tomato soup and meant to be diluted a touch and drank/eaten.
Further on in the video you probably could have combined the potato tin stuff for a veg soup.
Fascinating
It`s an eggplant puree/paste, trust me. Though I guess you can indeed make some kind of a nice soup out of it. Say, by mixing it with hot water and stewed beef.
I am SO enjoying this channel! What a unique and entertaining concept- keep up the awesome job! lol it is like a history lesson, food critique with a nice compassionate perspective!
"We know it's from somewhere!" Always a good sign.
Hello 👋 how are you doing
I've actually never seen one of these military meals before...Thank you so much for sharing this!
Hi Miss Emmy! What you have here is a Russian ration known as an "IRP" also known as a "ИРП" "Индивидуальный рацион питания" meaning essentially a individual food ration. This is a 24 hour ration. Other Russian "MREs" that you see are "ОРП" or "одноразовые рацион питания" which is an "ORP" and is translated loosely as a one-time use ration, they are a one meal ration as opposed to the 24-hour ration. Hope this helps.
So excited! It's been so long since a ration tasting. I love these.
In Russia, fuel tabs made from fish urine
Brute Better *tries not to barf after i ate a russian irp*
*huhhhhhhhhhh (sound of me barfing), comes back to the phone, continues scrolling through comments and watching the video and hopes what i just read amd threw up to is not true*
I love watching the MRE taste tests. Always fun and educational.
Great video. As as fellow canner, I'm with you. Make any canned food a few times and you start to appriciate all those colorful jars in your grandma's pantry and basement. ☺
Yeah I recently started canning meat and it’s great!
Never see negative comments on your videos! Such a positive vibe you give off! I’ve been a subscriber for 2 Years now and to this day, have no regrets! You’re amazing! Peace.
When she said “horny council” I spat out my coffee 🤣
Emmy, you look more and more beautiful every video, I swear!! I love your videos and you have the most soothing voice.
Your MRE videos are my favourite and I’ve happily watched every single one you’ve ever made. I’m hoping to order my own very very soon with my birthday money 😄
Happy early Birthday!
in Russia i believe there is a superstition that if you wish someone a happy birthday before their birthday its bad luck.
Glory to Russia same in Germany ;)
fjellyo32 just found out my notifications for comments turned off again, and then when i enabled it I immediately see your reply 17 seconds ago!
Emmy, Your ability to describe what you are seeing, smelling and tasting is amazing. Did you have any special training in the field? You are also very brave to put half of that stuff into your mouth and try to eat it.....
Being raised by a Filipino mom, a great treat she would make for me was this avocado dessert. Idk if it has a specific name, but to make it mash 2 avocados, add 1 can of sweetened condensed milk, crushed ice, and mix it together. It would mean the WORLD to me if you made this avocado treat in one of you videos!
Marshmallow yes Emmy, make this. I’ve heard of it before, and as a Mexican I’m very curious in the use of avocado in this dessert. Would love to see it.
I saw a video recently where somebody made this--I think it was Emmy, actually.
You are too kind Emme!!
Love your MRE Videos! 😍❤
Just found your site absolutely rocks. Real view of mre coooool.
Well, at least now we know what the council does in their free time?
Hi Emmy! I saw someone steam the normal ration pack breads over the boiling water used to heat the main meals...it ended up being much fluffier...you should give it a go ☺
They look so much better than US MREs, cos for one, they actually use food, not a series of chemicals made up to resemble something that could be mistaken as food... :P
twocvbloke you aren’t wrong, my man. After about a day of eating US MRE’s they all start to taste the same. Doing joint stuff with partner nations has really started to make me realize that Natick just wants us to eat dog food.
I've tried 4 different US MREs so far (two of which I showed on my Rotten Shed channel), and you're right, they tend to taste "the same", and not good quality. Even British ration packs are filling up with the same US MRE stuff, and that is just awful!! Compare that to Lithuanian MREs though (the only other ration I've tried), it's night and day, the Lithuanian ones taste like food, still looks like dog food, but the flavours are so much nicer!!
twocvbloke you need to make a conscious effort to try French rations, they are fine dining in austere conditions.
I've looked into getting some RCIRs, just need to justify the cost, as I'm on a limited income... :)
gentlegallon it’s not even the sugar, the meals are just shit.
What I like is this vid came out on my brothers surprise birthday party and we had it at a military home! I saw an MRE in there and immediately thought of you! And funny enough you post an MRE video on that day!

I don’t know why I find these so interesting and nice to watch
I have noticed watching the 6 or so mre channels I watch that many of the other countries, mainly northern, Russia, canada, Ukraine Poland etc, all seem to be fatty meat heavy. A lot more food and seem to be healthier than our mre. Also on the sugar i wonder if it's beet sugar ?
A lot of European rations also seem to have pate in it too. But yeah, like Emmy said it was definitely the kind of fatty food that you need for a cold climate.
I bet it is beet sugar. I live in Ukraine and none of our sugar is cane sugar. It might be similar in Russia.
If it's full of pashtiyet and already been featured by Crazy Russian Hacker, it's Russian.
Callie Masters I was thinking the same thing when she first showed the box. It looked like one Crazy Russian Hacker had on his channel.
Callie Masters i Heard pashtiyet is páté
Stasiu Sobucki- you are correct
Yes done by Russian hacker but she is so much more descriptive and a more "real" review if you know what I mean, as much as I love his videos!
The tomatey thing you had was eggplant spread
caahap (pronounced saahar) is sugar, while cmap (saamar) is nuts
Emmy, I find your use of cloth napkins very endearing as well as eco friendly. What, I inquire with all grace; caused you to use them?
@@crystaldawn2708 wtf
@@sandsand9403 🙃 Clearly the original comment has been edited chill
@@crystaldawn2708 Okay, you just seemed very aggressive
your voice is so soothing
Lemon-scented wet naps rule!
I think those smelled more of baby wipes which usually aren’t as perfumed. I do love when Emmy says that the lemon scented wipes remind her of when her mom would take care to KFC as a little girl cause I have the same memories :)
That's a lovely comment, but read the description all the way through, love.
I just love your voice so much! And the ya you talk is amazing.
You sounded so excited when it translated Nubbin, I died laughing.
emmy is great and i love her mre videos.
That is in Russian. I do not know why your app didn't translate from Russian.
If the fonts are stylized...Google translator has an issue with them.
Michael Hernandez Ooooh. I see the font style now.
Ok. I see how it can cause problems... lol
This is the second Russian MRE I've seen Emmy review, and in terms of quality and quantity of food, they are the best ones I've seen.
You should connect w/ Crazy Russian Hacker if you haven't already; he would definitely know if this was Russian. Plus, he LOVE doing MRE videos, too!
Always entertaining Emmy!
Recently discovered your channel and I’ve been binge watching while recovering from having my gallbladder removed. I also discovered Steve1989! From one of your followers. His videos on MRE’s are fascinating.
I’ve also been loving your crazy retro recipes!
hey emmy i love your videos and have been watching for a while! i have a suggestion: I would love if you could put in a picture or small clip of the item or section of one of your own/other people's videos whenever you refer to them e.g. when something resembles something you've seen before. I get curious and sometimes I do go outwardly look for it or have already watched the clip so vaguely remember it but it helps if its all in once place. Thanks for these relaxing videos ! Because of you I always say "Itadakimasu" before I eat lol its become a habit
this was recommended to me at an interesting time...
always nice to see ya Emmy happy sunday. your face makes me smile :)
I love Emmy. In particular, I love how she “mm-hm”s after taking a bite, like she’s agreeing with herself. 😂😍
Hello 👋 how are you doing
Man I wish you would fully show the print on the ration, as a native speaker it's always interesting to read what's written on them.
I have a recipe I want you to try to make on your channel. You will love it, I’ll have to email it to you sometime. Always a lovely video from you
