Hey there everyone, this is a review of a very uncommon New Generation Survival Ration - the prototype to the modern Food packet Survival General Purpose.
This Ration differs in a few ways from the FPSGP, for one, it has the Wintergreen Bar instead of Wintergreen Tablets - and it also does not have the tea mix.
I hope you folks enjoy seeing this unusual/obscure Ration, and thanks so much for watching/subscribing!

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™
I was in the army in 1992.
We eate meat from the 60's when we was out in the field.
Canned meat.
It was still very good.
It was called "RSP" (reserve strid proviant) Englis translation "reserve combat raison"
But we all just called it "død mann på boks"
English translation "dead man in a can"
Just this 300-400 gr of fat meat.
This was in Norway.
Sorry for the horrible English
@@plciferpffer3048 pretty good compared to some us citizens I've seen
It is very good bro! Appreciate you taking the time to write in a foreign language!

Isn't TH-cam amazing, I've found myself watching a video of a guy eating old MRE's and am thoroughly entertained by it. And for that sir I give you a like...
Me too! I've subbed to this and RC Gusto's channels! Awesome videos!! Who knew!!

"Wintergreen bar" is one food item I didn't know existed until now. Perhaps it never will again. Thanks as always Steve, these are fascinating pieces of history!
You got me hooked on the history and trying mre's Steve. The fact there are food items from the past out there that are preserved and can still be eaten is so cool its like a time machine.
First time I've seen him actually "get it on a tray" instead of a jump cut with all the stuff already on a tray.
Mind blown.
the moment he said 'let's get this onto a tray' and literally brought the tray into frame and slapped the cereal bar into a compartment.
I can forgive the lack of 'nice' because of this.
I just accidentally ended up with one of these from a surplus store! It has the wintergreen bar!
Wow
Wait, accidentally?
That wintergreen bar looked amazing, and was not at all what I expected. I figured that it was going to be soft and green, not a lump of chalk haha.
Me, too. I, actually, pictured a Kendal Mint Cake.
"Smells weird, and absolutely rancid... here let me take a bite."
Better drink my own piss...
+Dryliss S just to be safe
nice
I'm pissed. We didn't get the jumpcut with you saying "NICE". That's my favorite part of every video.
Right? I have it set as my notification sound for everything on my phone.
yaeh :(
Josh Winky No no no NICE HISS much more satisfying.
That & the spoon music.
Imperial sugar was made in my hometown before the factory shut down. I live in sugarland Texas
@@SteveVi0lence i care
He didn't say Nice, my world is crashing
I’m actually going through old video to find the first “nice” regarding the tray. If you go a few videos older than this he used to have hairy arms... he has dialed in his character “nicely!”
I wonder how they decided to have a brick of wintergreen in a ration.
+Dr. Certifiable Mistake at the lifesavers factory and they thought hey maybe we can make some money off of our mistake by putting it in rations and selling it to the Government for Military use? ;) definitely weird.
I think the same for the tablets. Why that flavor, or just that one?
Dr. Certifiable and get rid of it
Cuz 9/10 dentists recommended....
Wintergreen chewing tobacco (dip) was pretty popular at the time.
"Oh look some fungus infected death bar.... let's scrape it with my finger" :P
Steve sounded so irritated when it came to that coffee. "Dry moulded scum!! Its disgusting!!" I couldnt help but laugh.
I love how ruthless and quick this review was
Man, I wish they kept the wintergreen bar! That monstrosity looks amazing haha! Cool GP! I'll be reviewing an 80's GP soon...
Baptist Sermons Central shocking that a religious but isn't funny
That wintergreen bar really is strange but kind of awesome at the same time.
liked this one that wintergreen bar =brick of altoids
With as often as you put out these videos, I have this vision of a room in your house that's just jammed full of weird old rations waiting to see the light of day.
I had no idea that once upon a time, the wintergreen tablets of today's survival general purpose ration came in the form of a big brick. What were they thinking?
I love the whole food bars idea, simple easy to eat while out there doing whatever you need to do.
***** I've tried a few food bars. They never caused for thirst but tasted heavily of coconut.
I can't believe you are not filming your face while devouring these delicacies.
Brick of Altoids, that is way too awesome!!! A real shame it is so rare!!! Great video, take care!!!
Fresh (heh) mre videos! Thank you for the uploads! Also on a side note. Thanks to watching your videos, I had to go and get a P-38 for myself.
I love how at around 9:44 when you take a bite the colour of the video changes a bit.;
Nice review as always man
+Steve1989 MREinfo You probably tipped off the camera's light sensor and it freaked out because it thought you were exiting a doorway or something.
"Lets get that onto a tray........."
Where in the hell is my "nice"
I already love this channel, but Steve just became infinitely cooler (if that's possible) for knowing about Kendal Mint Cake! 👏
I love your enthusiasm trying something new.
So I have to tell you about the "oatmeal bar". Honestly IMO that was THE BEST thing ever invented. We used to go on 20 mile road marches and we used to bring 3-4 of those in our cargo pockets in 1996-98 before I dont remember seeing them again. Those things would keep you full and we used to call them John Wayne Bars because you couldnt break em, they were tough and solid like The Duke. In the 101st Rakkasans, most of us infantry guys would horde things high value items in the field and later, down range. Thanks for the memories man.
everytime i watch one of these i ask myself "why do i watch these?" then i end up watching them again XD
4 years later and this is still very much relevant. Gotta love Steven.
What happened between the Tasters Choice coffee and the Type 1 Coffee? Why is Type 1 from the Vietnam war still delicious but Tasters Choice from the H. W. Bush administration is unusable and rancid? We need answers!
Capitalism happened
@@ThommyofThenn ok zoomet
*zoomer
@@ThommyofThenn capitalism burnt my fries >:[
I got to try several wintergreen bars back in about 1997-2000 timeframe. I was young, but I honestly don't remember them sounding that hard to chew, the color also had a stronger tint of green to it if I recall.
Hey I was born when they made that ration lol. That wintergreen bar looks super cool! I wonder if you could use it as a double purpose as chalk....uhhh...to write SOS messages....?
For some reason I have this image of you fighting some monster composed of rotten rations and vegan bacon with a spoon.
I love this guy its so fun to watch him get so excited about a ration XD
That wintergreen bar... looks like a huge block of compressed pill to be honest
i ate this in 1992. my dad was in the airforce. i loved the snack bars they remind me of chipped pressed wood lol. no but really, i ate one of these a day. my dad always gave me one of these oatmeal bars everyday for 12 years. i ate MREs for 12 years of my life everyday.
Is that the same thing I sent you from Jerry's Bow of Awesomeness? That wintergreen bar looked like a tooth breaker
That sugar thought "its solidifyin' time" and solidified on everything.
"Give it to Steve, he'll eat anything!"
If it smells bad, encrust it in plastic and set it out for display. Cheers!
Woah... that wintergreen bar is crazy! What was the purpose of that thing? Theres no way it had hardly any nutritional value! lol. Anyways, you the man, keep it up!
Fresh smelling breath I guess...
Im going to make a wintergreen bar myself going to take boxs of wintergreen altoids grind them into powder form mix in a lil fun dip powder for extra flavor and press them into NICE size rectangles with my hash press.
You had so much more enthusiam and energy in these older videos. Kinda miss it.
man that wintergreen bar looks awesome, must have been a pleasure to be able to try that!
I've never seen a man so excited over a wintergreen bar, I love it.
The wintergreen bar sounded strange at first but now that I think about it I want one. Wintergreen is my favorite Altoid flavor.
I was kind of hoping you would try to reconstitute the wintergreen bar like the instructions mentioned. Could you imagine that? Altoid Soup?
I would think the Wintergreen would mess with your palate
My father served in the gulf war, so it was kinda cool seeing something from around that time period.
Sterling Foods is still in business here in San Antonio. I actually work near it. I don't know how much more information you wanted on the mre, but i'm sure that you'd be able to find it.
you didn't get me this time! ate before watching! LOL the old jungle rat in me is still missing the cereal and oatmeal bars though.... thumbs up!
Jungle rat?
Jaybird196 3d Plt. C-3-10 Ft. Leonard Wood. Our Drills were all jungle qualified so our training had a decidedly different tone than the other platoons and, allegedly, the rest of 3-10. LOL
+Kevin Moore All right. That's about what I thought you meant, but I wasn't sure :) .
He said, "let's get this out on a tray"..
And I said, "nice"..
I’ve never heard of kendel mint cakes before tonight but earlier I also watched Atomic Shrimps new video with them in it. Weird 😂
I'm kinda intrigued by Steve's music
I love your videos. They're very simple and varied, and you're very knowledgeable and a good narrator. The best MRE reviewer on youtube (Craigm94 from MRE Info is good too). Keep em coming!
Why do some of them explode? What chemical reaction is happening and what conditions cause them to leak/explode?
shit i was in 3rd grade in 1992! lol fuck it id try to eat it too!
*****
my grandfather's old, you're... getting there... haha
all i said was you arent old my gramps is, you are just getting there, shit im getting there too... nobody makes it off the planet alive, remember that.
Youngster. I have skivvies older than you.
I'd been out of the Navy for 12 yrs.Keep the vids coming Steve!
The wintergreen looks like a novelty sized Xanax bar
Hey Steve I have a question, when you come across something like this that's ultra rare and 1 of a kind, do you ever have trouble deciding whether to open it up and try the contents or donate it to the ration museum? Because in my mind this would be a one of a kind piece they would want wouldn't they? Can you still donate it?
He has at least two of em and the contents aren't really that unique, you get the same stuff in rations of the time. It's mostly the outer box which can go on display
ShankStabington He opens everything i hope for all to see. and i eat alot more watching these.
He generally only opens and eats if he has 2 of the ration. As it is food I feel it is better to document and describe the food rather than trying to store them all indefinitely. Packaging will last much longer without the rotting food inside so I think it is better to consume rather than save. I’m sure some people might disagree.
Tasty Choice coffee must have been trying to make some penicillin mold flavored coffee lol
I could wonder if the shipping folks had it X rayed at the airport . If so may explain the plastic seal deteriation.
shout out to Steve. hope you and your family and friends are ok and doing well and safe from the hurricanes in your area.
That Wintergreen block looks awesome.
Damn, I'd wish they would sell those wintergreen bars in stores, or at least some specialty store.
Is minty-fresh breath an essential part of wilderness survival?
chocolate bar: rancid.....Steve: appetizers...
hey Steve, love the videos man, very informative always! I've been looking all over for the oatmeal cookie bars and can not seem to find anything similar. Would you by chance have a link or know where I could find them? Or even the mre types that contain them, thanks for any info.
It's so awesome to see you continue to grow as fast as you are! I'm loving the video's! Do you think you'll do any internationals anytime soon?
Awesome! I can't wait!
This was the "food only comes in bricks" phase of military ration history. >.<
You'd think precutting some of those bricks into, I dunno, bitesized cubes would have been just as easy. You can still ship it in brick form, if that's the aesthetic you're going for.
That's a good idea, actually. They wouldn't even, necessarily, even have to change the packaging much, if any.
Wow! Never seen a winter green bar before! It's like a crack brick. LOL
Kinda wish you had added water to a bit of the wintergreen bar like the box said you could. Would have been interesting to see what that produced...
you should know that just because something smells weird, doesn't mean it will taste weird or bad. There are foods which smells HORRIBLE but the taste is amazing.
A giant bar of wintergreen mint. I mean there are people with breath bad enough that they need a giant bar of wintergreen mint xD
I'm sitting here wondering if one did add a bit of water to make a paste if it would be OK to use it as a topical rub for aching muscles.
My MiL swore by her wintergreen oil for easing her arthritic pains.
Good sealed package.Good condition of food.Any metal packaging isnt working and for 1992 is made really good!
The only metal packaging that holded food inside untouched was the beef stew of soviet army back from afghanistan era guess 1985 i got it from my dad (former soviet army officer) it was actually a layer of solydol on the top of tin can that keeped it untouched by air and bacteries.I guess only soviet army made metal food package survive thru years.
Just so you know =D(sorry for my mistakes if i made one)
***** This would be exotic!
That tasters choice looks so early 90s
Never heard of the wintergreen bar. the others have been in use since mid 80's. They are just labeled as cookie bars.
Great review.
Nice work man great channel. Keep it up!
What a strange thing to put into a ration in the first place. Looks good though.
for a second i thought it was the wintergreen that ate through the packet. people use wintergreen oil to soften vintage rubber parts on motorcycles n stuff. it's kind of a misnomer though because the softening is actually a degrading of the plastics/rubber polymers or whatever.
yeah dude, be careful with all the oxidative stress these old plastics have been exposed to. i haven't looked into it in depth, but i know that the there are long term health concerns involved. it's worth doing some research on.
jeez yeah, i'm sorry to hear that. i myself have been dealing with health issues lately and there's nothing that can prepare you for it once you're really knee deep in the shit. i guess the best thing to do is stay informed, keep researching. cheers bud.
Forgot to try some bar rehydration.
That wintergreen bar is definitely unique.
I dont know why, but I really want one of these kinds of rations where the food is just condensed bars.
I wonder if those are still sitting inside an airplane or life raft pack corroding after all these years later? Or do they follow a checklist and replace them every so often?
Where’s the NICE!
great video dude
Rehydrating a Wintergreen bar...? Hmm...
Maybe if you add hot water to the wintergreen bar it would make a soothing tea??
Those oatmeal cookie bars are delicious.
Mumzly04 which ones I only saw granola,cornflakes and shortcake
I'm sorry, I forgot to mention that they came in the regular 90's MRE's. The granola come pretty close though.
Why does it seem the older rations (40-50's) are in better shape than the newer (80-90's) ones?
That’s passion baby!
is the green brick alternative to brushing teeth?
"It's usually ox-idised"
Ba-dumsh! ;)
So a wintergreen block is a giant mint that you can break into little mints or turn in to mint soup? Cool, but why?
Was the wintergreen bar in any other ration before or since?
Was that similar to the Kendal Mint Cake?
+Allen Dayton can't tell you that but I live near to where that stuff originates and it's fantastic, love kendal mint cake...
Dude, even some of the papers had gone moldy! How could you even smell that? lol
The white powder was from a packet of sugar that had split,and spread over the other packages.
YUMMM.... LOVE THOSE BARS. :-) There is desert bar too...
Dessert bar, or desert bar?
+Steve1989 MREinfo I have 1 or 2 more NewGens which will make it to your laboratory some day... along with MORE GOODIES! :-) Can't have ya going hungry lad.... HAHAHAH.....
+Steve1989 MREinfo LOL. Is it some sort of candy bar, made for desert conditions, or something? I don't think I've had the privelege of even seeing one.
+Jaybird196 MREs are supposed to start becoming more theater/climate specific.
+Kevin Moore Hmm, that'll be an interesting development :) . I think it will be fascinating to find out the rationale behind the food selections, in relation to climate, and such.
Was that the prototype survival ration box I mailed to you, Steve, years ago?
I heard about these, mainly thru A-10 drivers. That is not a meal! Give me good old Chicken ala King anyday. And then it was gone.:(
