You put water in the green bag up to the line on the bottom hold it closed and shake it. It activates the heater. You stick the whole pouch in the green bag with the heater UNDER the pouch and allow it to heat sitting at a tilt for 5-6 minutes. Then you open the pouch from the side because the pouch is your bowl Edit- I had the meatball marinara less than a week ago

The United States government put a lot of money in to redoing the MRE's several years ago. The lunches will not have as much food as the dinner and there is a breakfast one also. All are pretty tasty. MRE's are available for sale in Army/Navy navy stores here in the United States. I am sure the UK has them also. You should do a comparison. The apple sauce is not the desert that is a side dish and the M&M'S are the desert. The beef patty was to be cut up and used on the other totills. Great video. The people who protect us deserve the best meals they can get even in places there are no kitchens. By redoing the meals and making them better the government was able to provide a hot meal that taste pretty good. By the way you put water in the clear bag that starts cooking process. You should try it. Its very cool.

Ok so I’m in the military MOS ( 68v ) I do medic for special ops . We happen to eat these and usually I’m the one supplying the food as well .. MRE does stand for Meals Ready to Eat . So I’m here to correct everything wrong that happened in the video .. 1: never microwave anything cause we don’t have actual microwaves on our missions 2: you do not have to use hot water .. if you have an mre and you’ve read the instructions just right your actually suppose to put regular temperature water in the mre and the bag actually self heats to a hot meal 3: you said that these meals aren’t enough to fill us .. in the military we aren’t suppose to be filled on a mission or when we are deployed . When a person is full it actually slows us down and slows our metabolism so we are always active when on duty . Just next time follow the instructions but thanks for trying A bit of our life style ! ☺️

[@maniah-chongahchong1509]

AveenosLOL Great explanation. Just wondering if you live in America and are in the American Military because my dream has always to join the army and serve my country. I'm from New Zealand but I've always wanted to join the American Military because it's always seems more like a challenge and I want to know if someone from a different country can join the US Military or do u have to be born there or live in America.

[@AveenosLOL]

Mani Ah-chong Ah Chong of course dude but I’m going to keep it very honest .. I joined the military when Obama was president.. now that trump is president it’s I tad bit more complicated to join and harder to get a green card to serve with us .. so you can either join through web site or in person . And last but not least you must be a us citizen. If you do join you have to be committed and be up for a hell of an task . Cause when I first joined I wanted to quit but I couldn’t because I’m on an 8 year contract so just keep that in mind . Plus I don’t know exactly what you would sign up for. Cause when I first joined and i thought I was going to just to medic work for special ops NO like I’m literally part of special ops and for people who don’t know of special ops ( it’s a group less then 10 people doing a mission that isn’t in a large combat ) so what ever you go for don’t expect it to live up to its name

[@maniah-chongahchong1509]

Yea well I am still pretty young but I would have loved to be in the military while Obama was in president but with trump now it's probably different is it? It was like a massive disappointment to me when trump became president but I was really just rooting for Hillary

[@maniah-chongahchong1509]

AveenosLOL oh so ur what is in Special Ops. That's like Big time ae like real serious business. What do u mean by Green Card and having to be a US Citizen. Is it the president who decides who gets in or the Army leader or what ever you's call it. general is it ?
