[@jermsMRE]

Thanks Chris!! You won't be disappointed!! I appreciate you always being here!!

[@MultiMagnum62]

These menus, are simple but filling and tasty. Most pasta meals are. Components look good, but the bread sticks I taste for 2 days, LOL. The cobblers have A good taste. I am always happy when I get one in A ration. Great job at mixing and matching components. Cool ration and review. Peace, John. Glad you enjoyed.

[@jermsMRE]

Hey John! Definitely a great ration! Thanks for being here John!!

Great review Jerms. I like this menu. I think it used to come with the garlic mashed potatoes.

[@jermsMRE]

Was definitely a great meal!! Thanks brother! I appreciate it!!

[@muldur3235]

Very nice Jerms. I dragged one of these out of my stash, and gonna give it a try. I just wish I could have a puff of one those nice Newport cigs you have in the background to finish the meal, ha ha

[@jermsMRE]

I think you'll enjoy the meal! I got lucky with those Newports and they were really good! I really appreciate you watching Muldur!!

[@bourbonstjoeNOLA]

[@truckermre]

Don’t encourage him

[@jermsMRE]

Thanks brother!! I appreciate it!

[@jermsMRE]

You love my garbage reviews. Stop pretending 🤣

[@jimbeck8417]

For even heating you have to use (a rock or something)!

[@jermsMRE]

I have been using one in my later videos. It's a pudding stone or something 😁 Thanks for watching!

[@DougSpende-eb2fz]

You only put your main meal in at a time. If it starts going strong, then toss in something else, but you have to wait until the first meal starts heating. I hate strawberry cobbler crap i gave that away to my buddies! When i was in the Marines 1987-1991, we didn't have heaters. We heated our stuff up on motors, engines, and generators. Or a snall heater from my canteens. You get issued 2 canteens, one heater, one cup, cover, and a small heater. Great show and well done video.

[@jermsMRE]

Thanks for the info Doug! Appreciate you being here 👍👍👍

[@Outmind01]

I really liked the video, especially that intro riff! Is that from somewhere or did you come up with it?

[@jermsMRE]

I'd love to say I came up with it but it is stock music that comes with the editing software I use. Glad you liked the video! I appreciate you watching!

[@ireland66613]

Great video. Mello reviews very cool .

[@jermsMRE]

Thank you! I appreciate it 👍

[@marilynscull4585]

Awesome review Jerms

[@jermsMRE]

Thank you Marilyn!!

[@markswishereatsstuff2500]

Looked great once the breadsticks were added to the meatballs and the cheese, of course.

[@jermsMRE]

Thanks Mark!! I appreciate you watching buddy!

[@rushmixtape6508]

[@jermsMRE]

Definitely a good menu! Thanks for watching! I appreciate it 👍👍

[@theoddfilmer1342]

[@truckermre]

😂

[@jermsMRE]

For sure!! Thanks for watching! I appreciate it!

[@williammitchell4417]

As for the meat stick... Snap into a not so Slim Jim!!!

[@jermsMRE]

🤣🤣 Thanks for watching!! 👍👍

[@williammitchell4417]

@@jermsMRE no problemo. I can come up with a funny one from time to time. I must say that stick was different vs the jerky strips that I would put in when I worked for Jack Links.

[@truckermre]

It’s weird that you have outtakes. Kinda didn’t think you edited this garbage at all.

[@jermsMRE]

Hard to do outtakes when the whole video is an outtake 😕 At least you were kind enough to watch to the end. Thank you 🙏🤣

[@jcsopinion3899]

Jesus , I know your Canadian and a trucker. But everyone knows how lame your reviews are. We all humor you so you don’t get but hurt.

[@Voss2120]

The beef stick is probably the worst meat stick ive eaten xD Not the flavor... but the texture is horrible.

[@jermsMRE]

Really? Man, I really like those. But I can definitely see it being a texture thing. Thanks for watching!! 👍👍

[@corkbulb2895]

Fun fact: Sopakco is a word mash for "SOuth carolina PAcKaging COmpany". Established in the 1950's. The weird spelling is from the anagram. And it is good to see you have learned! DO NOT OVERFILL! The FRHs can be very finicky depending on exactly how old they are. But they never heat right with too much water. Adding salt to the water mixture definitely helps, but is no guarantee. With those FRHs, less water and more salt is best. Basically, if the ration is less than 5 years old, it goes from cold water to boiling in 10 seconds flat! No joke! I literally burned my fingers shaking up a new MRE FRH after activating it. It is incredible how much age degrades the heater. Anything older than 5 years old will heat up, but slowly. And an FRH older than 10 years old does not heat up at all. Gotta boil the pouch in water or pour it out in a pan and use a fuel tablet stove. Aaaaanyway, I have found that the meatballs in this menu do in fact taste like frozen meatballs. Think a Banquet meal. It tastes heavily processed. BTW, the meatball MRE I tried had meatballs that were MUCH larger and were fewer in number than what you got. That must be a change in the MRE over time.

[@jermsMRE]

Agree about the FRH's. The ones that come in a package seem to work the best for whatever reason. Foreign ones seem better as well. Thanks for watching Cork! I appreciate it!
