I laughed so hard when it went from "100% replicated combat conditions" to a jump cut to a pot of boiling water.

[@trevord.6545]

Armyguy864 man y'all have pressure cookers? We just have plastic bags to heat our shit in lol as an American infrantryman I'm always jealous of other countries' MRE's. They all seem way cooler. I'm sure they all get old after a while though.

[@SimRacingVeteran]

never more- yeah man we get ol’ naphtha coleman stoves going and we heat up a whole sections meal at a time. Though don’t get me wrong we have those heating bags with water too but in the cold they’re worthless. Yeah MREs are not really fun to begin with. Though I’m a vehicle tech still in training so I don’t really go to the field that often so I can’t really complain. I don’t mind the Canadian MREs they’re not bad. Except for the salmon I won’t touch that noise. Lol. Semper Fi brother.

NICE

Hey Gavin, that was good for a laugh! I always carry a couple P-38's and coffee, instant, type 1 from the 70's-80's in my wallet just for when a fan says hi in person. Nothing is more fun than to chat for a few and share a laugh and a couple neat mementos to take along the road. I just met a dude and his mom at Webster Westside flea market and antique show this past Monday I was selling MRE's and the usual antique/jewelry setup I do out there on Mondays. And they were super nice and pleasant. I shared my British 24hr ORP that I brought for lunch with the fella. He got my chocolate brownie.. lucky bugger it was the only one in the case of 10. hah!

Aaron A. Foster not a all

[@youalldoit]

Aaron A. Foster Nope, I'm from Montreal too and have eaten both sloppy joes and smoked meat and apart from both using meat and bread, they're a totally different experience. Many restaurants serve it this way:huge pile of smoked meat (this one looked tasty enough) that you can enjoy with a fork because it's sometimes too big to eat as a sandwich at first, a couple rye bread slices, yellow mustard on the side to dip, and in the sandwich if it's small enough to be served whole, fries on the side, also dill pickles and coleslaw.

[@keeperofthegood]

[@inactiveaccount6884]

oi lemme get a double double with some poutine, eh?

[@nstamour]

The smoked meat looks right but normally it's made as a sandwich with mustard and maybe some pickles. Mustard sauce isn't something I've seen before. You're right to say it's similar to corned beef because it's very similar preparation and uses the same cut, however the main flavouring is usually the long smoking time. If you liked that, you should come to Montreal and try the real thing, it's even better. Also the double cream and double sugar is similar to a common order at Tim Hortons, our largest coffee chain, people usually say they want a Double double.

[@toryknotts8026]

Hey steve, a normal smoked meat dish in montreal usually looks like: A huge pile of smoked meat (this one looked tasty enough), a couple rye bread slices, yellow mustard, fries, dill pickle, and coleslaw. It varies, but you can get this plate at many delis, some places do it better, but most restaurants have good stuff. Glad you enjoyed this!

Thanks for haring Stevo! You asked about the way Smoked Meat is served in Montreal, and I have to say this MRE is nowhere near how Montreal Smoked Meat is served in la metropole... I've had Smoked Meat hundreds of times, and each outing to any Montreal restaurant delivered the meal the same way: A stack of smoked meat (pastrami) on Rye bread with yellow mustard on each side of the bread, an order of fries and a Kosher dill pickle spear. This MRE would have the right main flavor, but it would be way off on texture and sides. Still, if I were in a combat situation and this was the MRE I had, I'm confident I'd give praise to God for it instead of the many disgusting MRE options I experienced in Canada when I was in the Armed Forces, like peach flavored drinks in the field and cold omelettes that sat in my pack for weeks... For the record, I survived on Peanut Butter when we hit the road, and traded for it every chance I got so I could be awake during weapons training... #TGBTG

Hey Daniel, thank you for sharing! It's always fun to learn about new foods and this one was a neat introduction albeit not 100% authentic. Having it on rye with yellow mustard, fries and a pickle does sound much nicer. I actually have that IMP Omelet in Salsa menu - now I wanna review that one next. The IMP peanut butter is awesome it has a little extra sugar in it. I'd be trading for that too over a few of the less appetizing menus I've tried so far too. Clam chowder was not so hot either. Awesome comment again Daniel thanks man!

[@DanielStPierre]

LOL You're going to LOVE the omelet even though I'm still having nightmares about it! Truth is, I was spoiled when I joined the Canadian Forces b/c I was used to my mom's awesome cooking, and only liked a few MRE items like beef stew, cheese whiz & peanut butter. Why do I think you'll love the omelet MRE? Because you've experienced countless meals, most of which I would have used for fishing or hunting bait. Pls find the way to learn from someone who's a no-one, you truly are gifted bro. I can't wait to hear what you think of more delicious, Canadian MREs. :D

[@hatpropertyinspections]

Buff Shaggy you are absolutely with out compare the most entertaining guru on Utube . I have watched every one of your vids, many more than once. You are the goods man, top shelf!

[@joeg2385]

Literally made my day seeing this upload!

[@_gakuran_8400]

When you put this peace of bun into the sauce i'm just like "heal yeah! that man really know how to enjoy a meal "

[@XcZuNiTy]

This IMP looks incredible, I would eat this on a daily.

[@calebgarrett3771]

This looks like one of the best tasting MREs ive seen you review. Nice.

[@meganslattery5094]

Thanks for continuing to put out awesome videos steve! My boyfriend and i get so excited when we see a new video uploaded to your youtube :) cant wait to see your next something new...or old!

[@Bchan]

Compressed napkin? Jeez, you can compress anything these days. And nice video btw

[@victuz]

Agree

[@richardsanchez9190]

They even have compressed air

[@brianartillery]

Hello, Steve - any chance of doing some more of these Canadian IMP's? I was interested to see how they dealt with the 'Salmon' menu. Sounds Gourmet.

[@magpiewhisperer9055]

I always had issues with feelings of emptiness until I found out about this channel... brilliant brilliant brilliant

[@roudyruby9627]

I love the state of Jefferson symbol you have on your wall. I used to live in seiad Valley so that hits home. Another thing I have favored about your MRE ration reviews is how descriptive you are, it's like I'm eating them myself.

[@solem26]

“A little bit on the bottom, a lot everywhere else” 🤣

[@redneckbig11]

Awesome ration review man, those Canadians sure can put together a good Military ration lol.

[@Tsusday]

Hunter Prowse Yet we can't afford boots...

[@rockerdude8000]

Tsukushi Ikeda anyone who has been in the military knows you can survive and fight without boots but not without food. I personally became a big shit bag the long I go without eating.

[@metelerix1610]

I can’t stop watching these videos. It makes me so hungry and for some reason gives me an urge to eat oatmeal.

[@MP-Fin]

Looks great! Thanks Steve! Best wishes from Finland.

[@MrYoyojuan]

Its kinda stupid to say about a ratpak, but i really like the look of the packaging for the Canadian IMPs

[@Steve1989MRE]

Not at all Jonathan! I kinda feel like it has that "Mom's bagged lunch" kinda feel to it. Like ya open it up and there is a ham sandwich, a banana, snack pack pudding, and a chocolate milk. Well, if it had that I'd say it was the best ration ever made.

[@MrYoyojuan]

Wow yeah that's true, the banded stuff(snickers and nescafe) would add to that feeling too. Would be good for morale.

[@Comrade_Bly]

That coffee my friend is the standard Canadian "double double" 2 cream 2 sugar.

[@iloveskateboarding45]

That coffee pack! I used to buy those when I was in college and hard up for money. They aren’t mind blowing but they got the job done on a cold February morning

[@mercster]

ROFL, the slow mo of you splattering everything everywhere was the best part! :) Love you man, keep doin' what you do.
