- Ancient Egyptians believed death was an extension of life, and had many of the same demands. That’s why tombs like those of Tutankhamun were packed with preserved foods like dates, meat, and poultry.

Indian old people's : "you will never take anything with you when you die. Remember "
Egyptian mummies: *hold our snacks*
We actually do give clothes and food until like 13 days here in north India. Male family relatives even shave their head and donate the hair.
@Ashish Rajput well yeah, it's symbolic. Hinduism is full of contradiction.
@Ashish Rajput one more thing, I never said, dead carry their material riches to the next life except karma but Idk, why you wrote something, I already know.
@@anixes who donate hair to whom
@@birendrashahi40 well, I don't know the specific reason but a barber comes at home and shaves the head of male family members, like if man died, then his own son and grandson and man's brother's male family members as well.
Dates are a great choice for when you get the munchies in the afterlife.
😅
Lucu..
Great thinking!
Lol
I dont get it
He'll get hungry coz you guys took his food.
Someone should slip a Snickers bar into his sarcophagus, just in case...
Lol 🙋
No it's the monitor recordings that lead the scientists to the tomb cause the near by grocery store kept losing snicker bars to a topless teen boy wearing white towel who goes through locked doors like nothing's there.
This is very sad! Bring him the food back!!☕
They took everything that once belong to him so he probably got looted.
The picture in the intro thumbnail looked like a frozen turkey.
It is a mummified turkey. I hope you like your turkey dry.
It’s a man-made container made to look like a fowl, as the video says. Turkey, chicken, whatever.
Lol
It was a Butterball turkey.
That's why I thought too
Open the chicken box!!
Let’s see that dry aged bird!
@Benjamin Smith So pretty much like what you'd get from KFC lol.
I want to eat that delicious bird
It call’s me
I was waiting for that 😂
*The Forbidden Chicken* it's Teriyaki style
To see that chicken was literally why i clicked on this video
thefact that those onions and garlic still look mostly the same after more than 2000 years is awesome
Correction: more than 3000 years...
@@papugantayat2182 yes 3000 is more than 2000 😏
@@h0rriphic 3000 yrs is closer to the mark
There were still woolly mammoths when these onions were picked
@@horse6412 I dont think so
Tutankhamun wasn't even that famous, his grave was just one of the only ones that wasn't robbed.
@Daniel Appleton no most of the treasure was from the tomb because it hadn't been robbed. All other tombs near it had almost all been grave robbed.
Daniel Appleton Could that be because he was a boy and therefore wasn't expected to die?
paladino estetica That's correct. The archaeologist who found the tomb said when he first entered everything was like it was brand new and then oxygen did its number and the colors became faded almost instantly. .
@@margo3367 that is so sad. I imagine it must have been amazing to see for the first time
TheGothicGemini I imagine it was too. What we can still see is pretty amazing. I've been to see the King Tut exhibits twice when they have ventured out to the west coast. ✌️
He protecc he atacc but most importantly, he like eating snacc
lol.... you did not just say that
ᕼᗩᕼᗩ°😆 ᕼᗩᕼᗩ°😂 ᕼᗩᕼᗩ°🤣 love it!💆🏽♂️

They protecc, they atacc, but most importantly, they're not giving his snack bacc

Was expecting they'll show inside the chicken-shaped case and the basket (eventhough they are already emptied)
Me too
Why emptied?

Pharoah: I wanted to have a MUKBANG in the afterlife with the gods.
“Preserved for eternity”- everything was inedible after a week
Lol
May be not for afterlife?
The food died so that ghost guy can have ghost food, duh.
@@luigi55125 ok u win this thread
Because dehydrated meats and fruits cant last years?
Mom: sends me a picture she found on Facebook of an intact 3 year old hamburger.
Me: send her this video showing onions and dates from thousands of years
hot ?
Your momma ? 😂
I hope we find the tomb of Nefertiti in my lifetime. Ancient Egypt still has stories to tell.
We might have already, she may be buried with Ankhesenamun in KV21
@@starthelotus3453 interesting
I want to see Nefertiti tomb too....
it's fantastic..interesting imagination...agree with you...greetings from Egyptian in uk
@@starthelotus3453 we have a mummy called ankhesamunmum kv-21 ?
Now the mummy has no snack in the after life because you stole it from them😂
😂😂😂😂😂did they starve
Wouldn't anyone get tired of the same old snacks for the rest of eternity?
They stole the mummy too
@@quratulainaisha3265 lol
@@quratulainaisha3265They used to live thousands of years now less than a hundred. Devolving rapidly for touching the forbidden it's forbidden for a reason. Open the wrong crypt everyone on earth could get a contagion plagues world wide virus curses so much so they can no longer see. Now by universal law someone must steal from them to balance the scales. Nothing new under the sun the humans still think they have free will unaware the devil is using them like pawns. Have an amazing ascension process!
This video literally brings me to tears with fascination. Thousands of years old food was found in a tomb. I wonder if the food will even have a taste now, or if it has no nutrition but is just like a rock. Seeing those onions and meat in their exact shape makes it just unbelievable that they are thousands of years old.
No date seeds for planting in the afterlife? Not exactly an eternity supply than
The Egyptians heavily believed in magic. The right spells would make the food and drink multiply themselves for all eternity.
He was a king not a peasant
@@waterotter3625 Minecraft?😂😂
It is amazing that those food items didn't turn to dust after all that time. I wonder if they still have any flavor left in them?
Forbidden snacks
MrBeast should pay 1 million bucks to eat some.
there's only one way to find out
Now that you've taken all of his possessions, what do you expect him to have now? 😂
It’s disrespectful to raid tombs and investigate the food on behalf of cultural enlightenment then display the body for museum display for entrance fee, especially when there isn’t anybody defending the dead posthumous and there is cultural differences from past and now. The dead need their peaceful rest, they didn’t sign up to be displayed for fee.
Exactly! It interesting but respect the dead.
I totally agree... Respect for the Pharaoh
But thats what they wanted to be eternal lol 😂 ah humans, jokes since the beginning of time
yes. at best they should be studied and put back to where they came from.
This is a hard one. On one hand, it is incredibly interesting and the fees make more studies of this nature possible. On the other, we should respect the dead. But at the same time, if nobody alive has any sort of close connection to the dead then shouldn't the next best thing be to keep their memory alive in some manner? That being said, I do think they should remain in their country of origin. Otherwise I'd call it modern-day-grave-robbing
"Hey dude, did you bring the snack for our sleepover?"
Life in ancient egypt mustve been one endless buffet of food and parties
If you were a noble...I'm sure as a commoner life was a bit more of a struggle, just as it is now.
Don’t forget the harems and idolatry
You should see what Egyptian moms give to their kids as “school snack”...
the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Now I understand why mom usually would give me chicken shawarma sandwich
King Tut may not have been a great ruler in his day but he is certainly one of the most famous persons in Egyptian history. And his story will live on captivating the minds and imagination of people forever.
He died young never had a chance to be great
Nobody:
Smithsonian: *Supernatural Suitcase*
The brand new Pharaoh-To-Go SnacPak!
preserved for eternity until the egyptologist stole it from him *insert wink emoji*
To think that somebody in Egypt during that time had touched those fruits and veggies so interesting
It was preserved for eternity until some egyptologist stole it from him 😂😂😂
Iam really high right now and completely forgot why I was watching this video until they started talking about snacks.
Lochness Monsta So is your 3rd grade name
No idea why you would brag about being in drugs, but well
I love these topics. Seeing the gold caskets is great, but seeing the things he used in life every day-food, clothing, furniture, etc.-is far more interesting to me.
They do the same thing in asian cultures/religions. Such as on Chinese New Year, families leave out food beneath decorated shines for the spirits to feast on along with the living - a sign of respect to past ancestors.
Mexicans do, too, on Nov 2, the "Day of the Dead."
Indians also do once in a year..
Wow😸
@Vibrant77 You're clearly mad becuase of your lack of cultrue, and your ignorance. As shown from this comment thread this is a universal tradition done over many different groups, races and continents of world, rich and poor, going beyond religion.
I could be wrong, but this food usually gets eaten by the family, right?
They better save some chicken tendies and fries for the afterlife for me when I die
it gets boring lying on your tomb for millenniums so Tuk brought snacks to watch Egflix until someone found him
"Ancient Egyptian Tombs Were Crammed Full of Snacks"
Discovers Cheetos, Doritos & Twinkie.
3500 year old garlic look better than my 2 weeks garlic in the kitchen
Now I know we’re lunchables came from!
The snacks have their soul version too. Hahaha
Amazing discoveries would love to see the whole documentary
Great video, thanks for posting. We bought some imported dates for snacks, great idea. Tutankhamun is still alive.
In love how Salima Ikram is telling Stories about acient Egypte
Thank u Tut. Your life and death gave us an awesome history lesson📚. Your people were wise beyond their years. 🔭
Hello from illyria.. so beautiful collection
Hello from India
Everyone: Rest in Peace.
Smithsonian: Peace was never an option.
Reporter : these are the preserved foods from that year
My brain : what would it taste like
What your seeing here is the rest of the food he didn’t eat In the after life
Even mummies like midnight snacks 😂
“When I die put my snacks in the grave”
US: We have developed a new MRE that has a shelf life of 20-30 years
Egyptians form 2000 years ago: lol chicken-shaped lunchbox for chicken
I'll have to look for Egyptian Tupperware when I go to Walmart next time...
The food boxes (also called "meat mummies") that were found in Tutankhamun's tomb are misunderstood.
They were not simply food. For example, there was also decayed residue of supposed food also found on the floor of the tomb. The king was not served his food on the ground.
The reality is surprising and much more interesting than the identification of food items.
Studying Tutankhamun's tomb is fascinating.
And the chicken mummy will say... what shall I eat?
Fun and games till you hear "munch munch" from the grave at midnight.
He is still looking for his snacks
I was expecting to open the boxes😂 LoL
Mummy - *Hey give me some snacks, I'll get hungry in this tomb, And Give me some burgers and some chips too*
When you forgot your lunch 6900000 years ago:
Taking "Food is Life" to the next level
We are seeing 3000 years old onions and dates there.
The original MRE
Steve1989 should review it. Love to watch him open that chicken container and try it.
It seems as if king Tut was in a "doomsday bunker" with all his respite.
Finding mummies in the pyramids is like finding a birds nest in the engine compartment of an old car.
Egyptologist AKA Grave Robbers.
When I die, do bury me with a party sized pack of flamin' hot cheeto's?
Me in my room during my "quarantine" witch basically is my lifestyle
* which
I didn't know onions will not dehydrate after several hundred years.
They probably dehydrated already, but what you're seeing is the remains of the once yummy onion
First I thought it's chicken then read subtitles now watching video 😂
Tut was a teen for sure! He brought FH Cheetos and swiss rolls like it was a party.
Scientists open's a mummified 1000 years old snack
Steve1989: Nice hiss, let's get that in the tray.
Can you increase the video legth it is very watchable video 😊 i am intrested in this type of topic
Mummy guy : DONT TOTCH MY LEFT OVER
I wonder how would they taste now , amazing discovery though , very fascinating to know people eating habits back then , not much has changed
I think it won't have a taste, it would just be like a rock. Hard and tasteless because of mummification.
Imagine Tutankhamen staring at you and his belongings
I’m entered here because i saw a oven chicken cook
I want to taste those snacks😋😋😋
They'll just taste like rocks
you just gave me the ultimate reason to raid tombs
I was expecting to see the chicken inside 😂
mmm 5000 year old snackies. My favorites. You want some SteveMRE?
Steve: Let's put that on a tray. Nice.
I can’t believe that the food still exist wow
And what do you think would happen if you eat it? Would it just be like a rock?
Even after death, he still ask for snacks
I love those sandals at 0:23 !!! Those would go well with a bohemian caftan.
The thumbnail looks like a headless, wingless, legless chicken coffin.
when i first saw that thumbnail I thought it was chicken
Now that boy doesn’t have any dates to munch on in the afterlife.
I wonder what King Tut's wine they found tastes like 🙄🙄 the wine of the ancient world🍷
Since demon empowered magicians can actually make food appear, they believed this could be so in the afterlife.
We all came here to look at what was inside that Chicken like thing and got disappointed.
He could have just ordered food from Grubhub.
The video ends with the sentence "Preserved for eternity." Well, now that sentence doesn't apply anymore. You removed the food preserved for the Pharaoh. But still it gives me chills seeing food so old being in proper shape
They was expecting that there's a life after the dead. But what if the life is so different from what they had been imagined, 😳
The packing is really for eternity!! Thousands of years after!!! Still 😇😇😇
Youll took his food like that. And just decided "oh well enough time has passed"
I need to be buried with snacks.
Guess which channel I came from before this video.
Oh so so amazingly marvelous
Meal prep to the next level
Fact or fiction.. so unbelievably true 🎉🎉
And what would it taste like if you attempted to eat it? Would it taste like decay or will it be tasteless like a rock with no nutritional value?
Just chillin in the afterlife
I've never craved for a date till now.. posh dates for afterlife! Phew!
I don't know if it's just me but I think it's disrespectful to separate his treasures from his tomb, obviously he can't do nothing about it but these are people we're talking about. Show some respect to their body and belongings.
These foods are beyond expiration date.
They forgot to bury Tut's X-Box with him....
