Probably the unboxing of the MREs, the preparation of said MREs and the way Steve lays them out nicely on the tray, his voice and the way he says "Nice!", and maybe the satisfaction of him consuming the food may be the reasons why we love these videos.
This is my favorite channel. I discovered it 5 years ago and sometimes we drift apart, but like a good friend, we could stay up until 4am catching up. I don’t even want to buy an MRE because I feel like I’ve had them all. This guy needs to be on food network for like a camping food show. Please let that become real but also please don’t because this is what TH-cam is all about.
Tv doesn’t pay and I don’t even think he wants it, I have premium but I’m 90% sure he does no ads and only uploads when he has something interesting to show hence the 1 year wait on the new video
electrostatic1 A dude shell lands in the foxhole, he says: nice lttle hiss. He gets hit and sent to a forward hospital, as they take out the shrapnel he says: let's get this out on a tray - nice.
I Googled MKS MRE and their homepage has this video on it. They must have been pleased with it. I hope their potential customers who see it understand that Steve is a very honest reviewer.
@CarFreak Steve's about page specifically mentions no sponsors. I fully believe that he bought this. Also, good luck getting 14,400 calories for $20 from a can. (with this variety)
@@KvltKommando not true, lots of people who mukbang are incredibly fit because they fast and workout to compensate. I dont even watch mukbang, it's just obvious
I don’t know why, but listening to Steve express his enthusiasm and joy over an MRE always puts me in a better mood. It’s like counseling, only better and cheaper. Thank you, Steve, for being you.
amusingly enough it's actually a good quality in a soldier, zero struggle to find a vein for blood transfusion or morphine. nurse practitioners who work blood draw fawn over veins like that because it makes their job super easy.
Possum, actually I dont smoke and I have prominent veins in my arms and legs. Smoking causes veins to decrease and arteries to clog.. so try your point again with medical backing pls. I see he smokes even 70 year old cigarettes. They dont cause veins to be prominent and visable.
I try the other reviewers but always come right back here. But sometimes, just sometimes, I think Steve is a KGB agent and he's turning us all into sleepers for Boris and Natasha. I could be wrong....
I bought one of these for a 7 days hiking/camping trip. Was eating 2 packages a day plus a freeze dried meal aiming for about 3000 cals a day. Each day included a minimum of 5 hours of hiking (2 days were 10 hours). I chose this for its convenience and good reviews. The coffee was really bland and would require the coco powder to get mixed in it to be enjoyable. By the end of the week the meals got really old and repetitive with is bland meats and beans everywhere but overall it was worth it. I would snack on the breads and desert during the hike and eat the main entrees once I would get to the camp site. A very easy and convenient way of getting those calories in. The self heating packets really came in handy since there was a fire ban and boiling the packets in water would take away time/energy from other activities. No constipation what so ever. Would consider purchasing again.
I have a bit of a problem with agoraphobia and anxiety disorder. Steve's videos aren't just educational and informative, they are also incredibly calming and zen-like. There's a rhythmic pattern to how he does these videos, and his voice has no sharp edges to it. Wonderful stuff.
My 17 year old son used to love to go to the military surplus store and pick out a couple mre’s when he was a kid... this brings back so many memories of him ripping open those things like it was Christmas lol. “Nice... Mkay! Love it! 😁😁
There is something so calming and satisfying about watching these videos. Steve's voice is so welcoming and him describing something so seemingly generic with such enthusiasm gives you a different appreciation for these mre's. I have a whole box of mre's that my sister gave to me and because of Steve I cannot wait to eat them lol
I want Steve to make like a personal 24 hour ration. Like if he had the choice, what would be in each for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? Out of all the countries and different menus that has been tried on this channel I think that would be fascinating.
This was actually a bit of a nostalgia trip for me, these are exactly the rations my air cadet squadron would get when we did field exercises when I was younger.
The first time he did that I let out a bark of laughter that I didn't know was in me, and I immediately started smiling. This is an incredibly watchable channel; so good.
I subscribed due to his fan-base alone, the comments may be my second favorite parts watching these, there's not too much cancer here and that's rare. Keep it up Steve. Never thought I would be so entertained by watching someone review MRE's
Someone was talking about their thirst for the dude in a comment and the replies were along the lines of "same" and roasting them with quotes from the video
Tell me why he sounds like a really lonley quiet guy, then you see him and he is a cut ass buff dude, with luscious hair that makes the most satisfying videos EVER!! GOTTA LOV HIM
This dude is literally a Buff Shaggy from Scooby Doo and I love it! I was in a bad mood and I clicked on this video and you definitely helped me, so thanks for that! Your enthusiasm and positive attitude are absolutely infectious. Hope you're doing well man! Love from Springfield Massachusetts!
Imagine bringing these to school as lunch "Hey John whatcha got there?" "Oh just some toaster pastry oats brown sugar, flameless ration heater, mre trans fat free pancake, cocoa beverage powder, fruit punc-"

I bought a case of these 6 years ago when living in the San Francisco area as disaster prep food. They were due to be replaced, so I ate em on a camping trip last year. They were surprisingly good and still tasted fresh, but my ration heaters were dead and I had to heat the entrees in a pan of hot water.
I remember volunteering at the NRG center in Houston during Hurricane Harvey; that’s where I learned about MREs. Even though they served chicken sandwiches from Chick-Fil-a and Raising Caines and the MREs were absolutely flavorless, I always ate the MREs since they were fun to make using the flame less ration heater. Edit: also brown sugar pop tarts
This bring me back to my childhood, my parents would bring me these after they went to base on weekends and I fucking loved it, I eat an MRE at least once a month and god this is making me hungry.
This guy simply knows how to appreciate life. If a good-tasting piece of PB on hard tack and a hot mocha can make his day, what is there to complain about?
As someone who eats regular oatmeal with pop tarts, put jt on the pop tart. Especially the brown sugar ones since they're a bit dry but taste really good with an apple oatmeal
"I'd like to welcome to The Joy of Eating MREs. Now if you've seen our show before, I'd like to welcome you back, I'm so glad you could join us again. And if this your first time watching our show, well I'd like to invite you to grab your MRE accessory kits and make a meal right along with us! Tell you what, while they roll what portions you'll need for today's meal, I think we're gonna make us some Meatballs in Marinara Sauce."
@Dylan Wormuth, When I was active we used to mix some of the Cocoa Beverage Powder, Coffee Powder, Sugar, & Creamer, then add just enough water to make a paste and spread it on a piece of the inside of the mre bag. It would dry out and make what we used to call MRE Fudge.
They call it a "Cadillac" in jail/prison... Of course, you can just mix some instant coffee and hot chocolate mix at home and get the same thing... I would reccomend adding a bit of creamer (or milk) and a single packet of sugar.
If you mix two creamer packs, hot cocoa pack, and two packages of sugar, put it in your canteen cup, put it on the side of a fire and in like 15-20 minutes you have a brownie
I remember trying my first MREs with my dad. He was a Korean war vet and always had some "just in case". Watching your videos honestly makes me remember those times we would eat them while camping (essentially roughing it in the woods. No tent. just a crude shelter and mummy bags). Excellent job as always.
Bet he's low-key a coroner and just everyday "Ahhh murder victim lets get him on a tray! Nice, he got shot 37 times! Nice hint of blunt force trauma, mix that with the broken leg man and he's dead! Alright cool!"
“Well that will be interesting later” 🤣 the amount of subtle humor on this channel and the dedication to auto tuning/changing the playback speed of the spoon taps (without ever mentioning it lol) is really why I keep coming back.
My uncle is in the reserves and he used to bring home surplus. I don't know what they were before the MRE's we know today, but he used to bring home these items that were not packaged together. I had the spaghetti and meatballs, chili, and I loved the chocolate wafers. Funny, my favorite of them all was the fruit cake. Years later, he brought back the MRE's. They only had a few weeks left before they met their recommended shelf life. I wanted to keep them as emergency food, but ended up just eating them. They were great! My favorite were the cocoa powder. My uncle distributed them to my cousins and I went after every pouch of cocoa powder. The cocoa powder smelled and tastes better than what you can buy at the store. For years I was looking for their equivalent in the supermarket and I found them at Trader Joe's one time, but they stopped selling them. The closest I get are from Ghirardelli. Didn't realize that the MRE had some really high quality cocoa. I wish I still had them. I was watching some documentary and saw these guys put the cocoa powder in the crackers, add hot water, cream, and coffee. They made chocolate bread pudding. DAMN... I wish I had some. Then I realized the military version were very very high in calories and I remember opening one for every meal.
My 6½ year old son got given the chili with beans meal kit and although he found the mains spicy he really had a blast making his own video like yours ( he included the part about getting it out onto a tray.. nice.) He loves watching your videos and can't wait to try other meal kits
Showing off the shelf life chart: "That's just a good basic gauge but you know these things can usually last a little longer." From what's been shown on this channel "a little longer" can mean few extra decades
I think Steve once single-handedly invaded Britain looking for our stockpile of ratpack fruitcakes. He was so nice about it, we helped him load his Apache and gave him a box of yorkshire gold tea to drink while eating.
MacGuyvering the shit out of that breakfast with the mocha and the apple cinnamon crumble. I guess soldiers get pretty creative with their rations after long lol.
Thish ish that Chrishhh We used to mix a sugar, creamer, and a little peanut butter together then cook it to make a cookie. Lots of time in the field with not enough food so we made everything in the MRE count
The individual parts of an MRE taste bland. Mix some combos, cheese packets, some Tabasco, and anything else you can barter, buy, or steal and you have a decent meal.
I've watched a few of these in a row now. Started with some 70+ year old biscuits, a couple hard candies, one of which was liquified...into a Vietnam set you couldn't really mess with as the cheese was rancid and the pecan cake was no good either, straight into the newer plastic contained MRE's as we see here in this 3 pack. I've already subscribed, and now I'm on Amazon browsing MRE's...I'm hungry :D Interesting to see all these. I'm wondering if someone will be doing the same thing to these new MRE's in 2085 and beyond like you've done with some of the older rations. I can already imagine them crinkling the plastic wrappings and finding joy in the old-school, low tech heating elements. Very cool videos, thanks!
It may be because I’m Mexican, but “Vegetarian Taco Pasta” sounds like a group of three words that don’t really belong next to each other in that way >_>;
One Wild Sheep If you give him legitimate hardtack from the Battle of Antietam, he will eat it and then light a smoke from a saltwater-soaked pack of Marlboros that were just dug out of Dog Green on Omaha beach.
I ate a shit ton of these during and after Hurricane Harvey. My grandparents got way too much from the people helping with Hurricane relief. Good stuff. Me and my brother were know to bring MREs to school and got too trade for some good snacks.
Your voice would be good for a vehicle GPS. "Let's get you out on the highway. Nice! That's the way to go."

*for those who can't see sarcasm, yes, I was sarcastic*
Richie Hanley .....potato?
I don't know
This bring me back to my childhood, my parents would bring me these after they went to base on weekends and I fucking loved it, I eat an MRE at least once a month and god this is making me hungry.
Andrew Flood i’ve never had one but they actually look pretty good!
Just military brat things
Andrew Flood so much for "Meals Rejected by Enemy" eh?
My parents used to bring me one from the commissary also. Miss those days. I need a MRE now
dean mckellar I always knew them as "Meals: Rarely Edible"
This guy simply knows how to appreciate life. If a good-tasting piece of PB on hard tack and a hot mocha can make his day, what is there to complain about?
He sure does savor every moment. We could all take a lesson.
As someone who eats regular oatmeal with pop tarts, put jt on the pop tart. Especially the brown sugar ones since they're a bit dry but taste really good with an apple oatmeal
Homework can wait
That's the spirit!

shout out to Steve. and I hope some day to have coffee instant and smokes with you someday.
George Luz I thought it was summer? Or do you happen to be one of the unlucky ones that still have school or have homework for summer?
Luz, get back to the line

sitting here in coronavirus time wanting some mres
My dads got a case of MREs in case Shit Hits The Fan
Right😂
Here in Italy I'm eating dog food

Yup
For the longest time I thought you were calling them "Famous Ration Heater"
Remo68 same here I thought that too for a while
☝️
Me too, bro... Me too 😋
The one, the only, it’s the famous ration heater! Give it up folks!
Just ordered 2 boxes of these off Amazon. They need to hire you as a spokeman...
James Mason worth it?
How were they?
They use him on their official website
Did you buy them for dieting?
Same
we now return to, Buff Shaggy does ASMR MRE review. Only, on youtube.
BRAVO ACTUAL don't you mean asmre
BRAVO ACTUAL MRE Jesus!
TheGamingNinja ok that's clever
breakfast: bread bread and bread
lunch: beans with beans
Lol

I honestly wish I was still in the military just so I can try that cocoa + coffee trick. It's genius and I'm ashamed I never thought of it.
@Dylan Wormuth, When I was active we used to mix some of the Cocoa Beverage Powder, Coffee Powder, Sugar, & Creamer, then add just enough water to make a paste and spread it on a piece of the inside of the mre bag. It would dry out and make what we used to call MRE Fudge.
Papa Bones what a brilliant idea!
I keep chocolate syrup in my house just to add to coffee. The syrup dissolves faster and more thoroughly than powdered cocoa.
They call it a "Cadillac" in jail/prison... Of course, you can just mix some instant coffee and hot chocolate mix at home and get the same thing... I would reccomend adding a bit of creamer (or milk) and a single packet of sugar.
If you mix two creamer packs, hot cocoa pack, and two packages of sugar, put it in your canteen cup, put it on the side of a fire and in like 15-20 minutes you have a brownie
I remember trying my first MREs with my dad. He was a Korean war vet and always had some "just in case". Watching your videos honestly makes me remember those times we would eat them while camping (essentially roughing it in the woods. No tent. just a crude shelter and mummy bags). Excellent job as always.
This is the only channel I seldom skip commercials on, primarily to support Steve.
"There's nothing like a shelf-stable chocolate chip cookie to brighten your day"
Bet he's low-key a coroner and just everyday
"Ahhh murder victim lets get him on a tray! Nice, he got shot 37 times! Nice hint of blunt force trauma, mix that with the broken leg man and he's dead! Alright cool!"
lmao!
*cuts open the guy's sternum* "Oh thats a nice hiss" LOL
That's funny
"Nice mmkay"
HAHAHAHA jusy cried from laughing so hard HAHA
double upload, thats pretty...nice!
Hey, not bad!
I have at least 1 more coming out this week - aiming for 2-3 more though.
more? you are spoiling us too much but that's pretty nice!
Steve1989MREInfo Nice!
Pretty, you mean Really... NICE!
This is definitely the way to go
“Well that will be interesting later” 🤣 the amount of subtle humor on this channel and the dedication to auto tuning/changing the playback speed of the spoon taps (without ever mentioning it lol) is really why I keep coming back.
it would be cool if eventually the mre chef people sent prototypes to you to review before making the official thing
Finds a snake while camping: "nice hiss!"
After opening a diet pepsi: "nice fizz"
After getting kissed "nice kiss"
Miss a 3 pointer "nice miss"
After getting dissed: “nice diss”
Steve finds a dead snake: "no hiss"
I've heard this before, but our beloved Steve really is the Bob Ross of mres!!
Hopefully he makes some new videos soon, it's coming up on a year since he's done one.
My uncle is in the reserves and he used to bring home surplus. I don't know what they were before the MRE's we know today, but he used to bring home these items that were not packaged together. I had the spaghetti and meatballs, chili, and I loved the chocolate wafers. Funny, my favorite of them all was the fruit cake.
Years later, he brought back the MRE's. They only had a few weeks left before they met their recommended shelf life. I wanted to keep them as emergency food, but ended up just eating them. They were great! My favorite were the cocoa powder. My uncle distributed them to my cousins and I went after every pouch of cocoa powder. The cocoa powder smelled and tastes better than what you can buy at the store. For years I was looking for their equivalent in the supermarket and I found them at Trader Joe's one time, but they stopped selling them. The closest I get are from Ghirardelli. Didn't realize that the MRE had some really high quality cocoa.
I wish I still had them. I was watching some documentary and saw these guys put the cocoa powder in the crackers, add hot water, cream, and coffee. They made chocolate bread pudding. DAMN... I wish I had some. Then I realized the military version were very very high in calories and I remember opening one for every meal.
My 6½ year old son got given the chili with beans meal kit and although he found the mains spicy he really had a blast making his own video like yours ( he included the part about getting it out onto a tray.. nice.) He loves watching your videos and can't wait to try other meal kits
“Nice”
Showing off the shelf life chart: "That's just a good basic gauge but you know these things can usually last a little longer."
From what's been shown on this channel "a little longer" can mean few extra decades
He hears five years and think fifty years
One box is enough to sustain a stationary/inactive man 7-8 days, or a mobile/active man for 4-5 days. Great preparedness product.
Me: is he gonna do the thing?
Steve: *dinks side of glass with spoon
Me: ayyyy he did the thing
*distant moaning*
I like the noise it makes
We love that thing!
listen to it in 2x speed...
your welcome
@@paulholmes1181 nice
"We kill for Pound Cake. We HAVE killed for Pound Cake."
I think Steve once single-handedly invaded Britain looking for our stockpile of ratpack fruitcakes.
He was so nice about it, we helped him load his Apache and gave him a box of yorkshire gold tea to drink while eating.
BAHAHAHA... 🤣
@@peterclarke7240 yorkshire gold is so freaking good. I always keep a couple boxes at home
MacGuyvering the shit out of that breakfast with the mocha and the apple cinnamon crumble.
I guess soldiers get pretty creative with their rations after long lol.
Thish ish that Chrishhh hm? how? id get it. wouldnt mcguyver just eat it all normal?
Thish ish that Chrishhh
We used to mix a sugar, creamer, and a little peanut butter together then cook it to make a cookie.
Lots of time in the field with not enough food so we made everything in the MRE count
Mr. VOID-OUT we would make a chocolate icing for the lemon pound cake with the cocoa beverage powder.
As a vet, I can tell y'all that I've Macyvered numerous MRE's to tasty effect
The individual parts of an MRE taste bland. Mix some combos, cheese packets, some Tabasco, and anything else you can barter, buy, or steal and you have a decent meal.
"Look at that green glow, can't miss it in the dark."😂🤣😂🤣
One has to wonder if it would make you piss green.
Antifreeze... ??
A lil Radiation never Hurt Anyone .🥴
I just think Steve you’re precious. I have no business watching every video you put out. You make me feel calm and comforted. Thanks.
The beans make your rear double as a flare and smoke signal!😂
These videos are always calming for some reason lol Great video man !
It's his voice lol
it makes you feel like you have food in the house
Impala 67 it's Steve's voice.
Nice BMTH profile pic :)
I've watched a few of these in a row now.
Started with some 70+ year old biscuits, a couple hard candies, one of which was liquified...into a Vietnam set you couldn't really mess with as the cheese was rancid and the pecan cake was no good either, straight into the newer plastic contained MRE's as we see here in this 3 pack.
I've already subscribed, and now I'm on Amazon browsing MRE's...I'm hungry :D
Interesting to see all these. I'm wondering if someone will be doing the same thing to these new MRE's in 2085 and beyond like you've done with some of the older rations. I can already imagine them crinkling the plastic wrappings and finding joy in the old-school, low tech heating elements.
Very cool videos, thanks!
Swifigames that was the first one i watched too lol i got hooked
That spaghetti roll tho 😷😷
It may be because I’m Mexican, but “Vegetarian Taco Pasta” sounds like a group of three words that don’t really belong next to each other in that way >_>;
I agree but it is actually pretty good
It don’t come out the other side all that well either unless you eat the napkin with it
Yeah, like cheeseburger pizza and chicken fried steak lol. American fusion food is different to fusion food everywhere else in the world!
It's ok pretty sure most Europeans feel the same
If it tastes good, it tastes good!
Haha, love the editing on the spoon hitting the glass' edge.
steve is the master of the low key meme
Subtle, but so nice.
0ktober hahaha yeah
0ktober Thats that sort of detail that takes Steve apart from other reviewers. Guy's an artist!
I have to say that it is pretty......nice!
I’m learning a lot about MRE’s and about different cultures foods. I really enjoy your work.
He's not used to eating FRESH MREs lol
One Wild Sheep If you give him legitimate hardtack from the Battle of Antietam, he will eat it and then light a smoke from a saltwater-soaked pack of Marlboros that were just dug out of Dog Green on Omaha beach.
I ate a shit ton of these during and after Hurricane Harvey. My grandparents got way too much from the people helping with Hurricane relief. Good stuff. Me and my brother were know to bring MREs to school and got too trade for some good snacks.
In a zombie apocalypse, these MRE's would worth more than gold.
Wow what a good comment so original and intellectual wow.
You fall short of crap dude.
IMPORTANT NOTICE how rude.
Listen I'm gonna help you drive out to like a desert and punch a hole in your fuel tank.
IMPORTANT NOTICE youre just a ray of sunshine, going around commenting things like this.
