Brains used to be a fairly common food in the US. I collect old railroad dining car menus. Right from the beginning of the 20th century up though the early 50's, brains and scrambled eggs were on almost every breakfast menu. Calves brains were more common than pork, but pork brains were more popular in the South. Tongue and sweetbreads were also on every menu, with tongue being a typical sandwich meat and sauteed shortbreads being a dinner type item. I'm assuming that increasing prosperity turned us against organ meats and onto things like roast beef, chicken and turkey. It's hard to imagine any US food that would feature brains or tongue as a prominent ingredient in food today. And where's the Boss? I miss her reviews.
@rcgusto24277 жыл бұрын
Sar Jim that's a good historical reference. You can still buy canned pork brains in milk. Old world food! Still not uncommon in some places. As for the boss, I've seen Kiwidude putting out more videos recently! Hopefully there will be a resurgence!
@sarjim43817 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I hope so. I like seeing kids getting involved in what their parents love. I live in the South, and we have all kinds of strange meat here most people who live in the North never see. You must be talking about the Rose brand pork brains in milk gravy. It's right on the shelf next to the pickled pig's feet. There are times I feel more kinship with Russian food than American food. Even the instant soup looks tastier and more filling that what we usually get, especially the few soups that show up in an MRE.
@MsKestrela7 жыл бұрын
I grew up outside the US, in South America. I'm a HUGE fan of organ meats, with sweetbreads being right at the top. Pickled brains rates second. And living in the Old South, chitterlings (chitlins) are still widely available. Still, I would give my left breast for a serving of chinchulines...cow's small intestine still stuffed with whatever grass it ate last, grilled over a wood fire. A quick dip in chimichurri, and it's heaven on a plate.
@sarjim43817 жыл бұрын
I've had chunchullo in Columbia. I think it's all in the same family, although the ones I had were well washed out. I don't know if the grass from bossie's gut would be too attractive, at least not for me. The ones I had were the same as most Colombian sausage but with the different casing. Chitterlings are still widely available here. I don't mind the final result, but you really have to cook them outside. The stench until they are thoroughly cooked is really nauseating and will linger for days in the kitchen.

In England and Ireland steak and kidney is common pie filling and gorgeous. Also liver is common and I love it, cooked properly its great. Brains is something I've only done as pate, some shit gave us jellied brains when I was a kid made me gag, tasted like pickled arse, pate or some unknown part of a paste is fine by me though. In England and Scotland we have lungs, and heart a few times a year in haggis and such like. Very tastey. Tripe and trotters... No! They have no use, they're vile. Just bin them or feed them to an animal or something... Just don't eat them

Well I'm on first minute of this video... Both FROG rations are FSB there are no true or authentic FSB ration nowhere except for MREinfo, what seems to be only place making this difference, not all but from some members. Also FSB is not only Russian Agency that has Spetznaz units and they are mostly counter terrorist units, undercover operations, sabotage, hostage crisis etc not mountain warfare. Only in some ocasions mountain related operations of FSB where/is Chechenya. MVD has Spetznaz units and MVD have their own rations, EMERCOM even has special purpose unit and EMERCOM have different rations. Can you give me some sources for your informations about this? Because if you are right about this being onyl true/authentic FSB ration and FSB having Mountain ration for Spetznaz units that are mostly for urban warfare all my friends in Russia are liars, including guys in Moscow I went to school with. Sorry for poor English but I'm really looking forward to get some explanation about this new informations and explanations from you.

Crombat Rations these have flooded the eBay market recently, with contents not matching the content sticker descriptions. They are being listed as "mountain rations" but upon opening, do not contain the higher calorie content and FRH specific to the mountain ration. They instead contain contents very similar to the standard IRP. They are being sold with misleading details. That was my point in the description.
@CrombatRations7 жыл бұрын
If It's not problem if you have links in Russian telling what's inside montain rations please provide them. That NathanMRE guy did FSB ration review and his is called *ultra rare* mountain FSB, but no FHR also. You call this revieved one True FSB Ration, well I had FSB ration variant 3 with paper on top saying whats inside and how many calories, nothing misleading about it, but it seems you are saying I had prepackaged IRP. And what standard IRP did they prepackaged in your opinion? How do you know what's specific for Russian mountain ration? And source saying it's Spetznaz FSB mountain ration and that version of mine or Nathan's are prepackaged canned not FSB ration.
@rcgusto24277 жыл бұрын
Crombat Rations what I'm saying is that several of us, myself included, have recently been burned with inaccurately listed items from eBay. The mountain FSB should be listed as Menu 1 or 2, have retort pouches instead of cans or foil pans, a FRH, 5 chocolate bars, dehydrated/freeze dried items, and over 5000kcal. The problem also is that the FSB that is not designated for mountain/arctic conditions is very often being labeled as a mountain ration on eBay and other ration sources. My point here is that purchasers need to be wary of the term "mountain ration". Just because it is in this style packaging doesn't necessarily mean that's what you are getting. My apologies for using the terms "FSB" and "mountain ration" interchangeably. This is a mistake and makes my statement misleading. Still, there are opportunist sellers with a very large presence on eBay right now and the listings are very commonly inaccurate. So that's one problem. The more glaring issue is this: Two weeks ago, I received what I thought was another one of these that turned out to be a dressed up (must likely) civilian ration stuffed into one of these containers. Contents did not match the label, and were commercially appearing items. That's the kind of stuff I'm talking about.

Unless you're just wanting to buy a few, just be careful not to get the mre star as it's a civilian version & doesn't contain as many items as military spec. Oh and if you buy just one case go for the A menu it has the better meals, the B menu has a few vegetarian meals. lol

Bobby Bobenation if you want true military MREs, I agree with the comment above by Mitchell. If you are open to civilian MREs, XMRE uses military components in a civilian pack. Benefit to those is that they are the freshest components you can get. True military MREs are usually a couple years old when they become available to civilians.

the FSB if i remember is predominantly for special forces aka spetznaz. Therefore i think the green thing you use to open packages is for stabbing the enemy in the jugular, not a tearing aid :p

Honestly I would ask Steve - he seems like he has a perfect setup. I also noticed some scan lines interpolating on your video. Only reason I mention it is, stupid shit like this can actually limit your channel growth, 99% of people will immediately stop viewing if they see anything distracting. Just my 2 cents.

More like a 36 hr ration if Lol, must be at least 4200 cl. I think the sausage would have been a candidate for heating up, looked at bit gnarly cold.

Karl P this was a big ration, for sure. Almost as calorie dense as the Dutch arctic. Just a little over 5100Cal, which is about double what the average male needs on an everyday basis. Certainly energy requirements are higher in combat situations. 3 MREs are about 3500 Cal. Cold weather requires a lot more just to maintain body temperature.

This isn't suprising that russian rations are classy. Tried them myself. I guess Putin wants soldiers happy and well-fed.
@tankolad7 жыл бұрын
Russian soldiers do not eat these rations often, even when deployed abroad like in Syria. They mostly eat from field kitchens and mobile bakeries, so they are fed fresh pea soup, bread, potatoes, porridge, stews and so on. Plus, the rations are not supposed to be eaten for more than 3 days straight, even though it is definitely quite nutritious and it comes with a multi-vitamin supplement.

I'm not a huge fan of the sausage stuff...it's just a really strong salty flavor. That rice porridge was my breakfast that day. I try not to waste much...these 24 hr rations end up being all of my meals for the day
