[@jacobishii6121]

Peak of the Cold war and at the front....... These guys had a serious concern,you can see by how well preserved this is how well fought out the packaging was for its time especially. This is probably one of the most fascinating rations I've seen technology wise. It was really meant to be very long term and bad environment freindly

[@Lappmogel]

Its meant to be carried around all day, unpacked and repacked all the time. Only to be used if you lose contact with the field kitchen. Thats why its so overbuilt compared to modern mres that are usually consumed shortly after being issued. I really like its design, very slick and hard packaging so that it can be jammed down in your pack without much care.

Steve, your delivery of these videos is amazing. It seems to me that there is a bit of intended very dry and subtle humor, which makes it even better. "You know the German military, they would make a survival situation actually seem pretty - nice!" *flash to MRE ingredients laid out on the tray*. Well done sir!

[@Ricewarrior01]

This ration is so cool. It reminds me of the old school sci-fi style with it's metallic silver look and food bars.

[@urekmazino6519]

Apparently there are still a few places that make Chocolate Cola Bars but only the people that have eaten these rations would ever be able to compare the taste. I'd love to see you do something like that Steve. Were you try to find modern or current day equivalents in taste to some of the more delicious things you've enjoyed in these aged rations. Maybe a video of you eating the modern version and commenting on how you feel its similar or different to a ration item.

[@thedude7726]

Urek Mazino aged fig bars are one of the best things

[@Infinite_Jester]

Scho-Ka-Kola is still sold commercially, and has been since 1936. I still remember surviving on that and the MRE peanut butter they gave us in the FDF. I assume this is the same stuff in the video since it's been in German military use for ages, but that the form is different for the survival ration (normally they come in round 'disks', and are separated into wedges). The caffeinated chocolate is really addictive. Not sure you can get them in North America, but worst case scenario you can just ship them over.

[@TheSlayrnumber1]

Tripticket you should message steve with what you know, so he can get more!

[@Infinite_Jester]

Correct, the Finnish Defense Forces. Note that I have never stumbled upon the product included in Finnish MREs, but it was an extremely popular product to carry with you since it's sold commercially in Finland. I just looked it up and you can get the product from Amazon US, but the tins are about three times as expensive as in Europe (original price ~3€). I suppose if you're desperate for a taste it might be worth it.

[@binaryguru]

I can get Scho-Ka-Kola in Montréal, QC in Canada. It's one of my favourite chocolates.

"This is some of the best chocolate I've had in my life." ...People overlook German chocolate's quality! Germany makes excellent chocolates. In general, I actually prefer German to Swiss chocolates.

[@JoelinoPT]

In my opinion German Chocolate is very very good! Isn't that hard find better German chocolat than swiss ones, like 50/50, however Swiss Chocolate is the best if we talking about the high-end chocolates. If you go to a traditional Swiss maker chocolate blows your mind. Expensive but the better you can have. I live in Switzerland :)

[@FullMetalFox2]

Since you liked that chocolate, try to get your hands on some "Scho-Ka-Kola" :) That bar was probably made by "Hildebrand, Kakao- und Schokoladenfabrik GmbH" who might even be the inventors of Cola-Chocolate, in 1935 they started selling is under the name "Scho-Ka-Kola", in WW2 it was a part of every pilot's ration which earned it the nickname Fliegerschokolade, while various other rations also contained it in some form or another. Since then the company has been closed down, and the rights and recipes changed hands multiple times, but they still pride them self in keeping the recipe as close as possible with modern regulations. No, I'm not a history fan or anything, but that stuff pretty much kept me alert at a job where you weren't allowed to carry any liquids outside the break rooms, so I got curious what my favorite chocolate actually is.

[@regenbogentraumerin]

The bar was made by Sarotti though (you can see it at 2:07). But it might have been inspired by Schokakola.
