Im so fricking glad to see your guys' channel pop off like the finest ar-platform. It was super interesting to see you featured on different channels and grow as a team to start your own. This will forever be a part of your legacy as military personnel, you're an inspiration to the newcomers to dive into mulitary culture. There are no limits! Keep up the good work fellas.

Guys, I wanna make a confession. I think I ate more MREs in my 4 years of ROTC where I only did army for like 10 hours a week compared to the past 6 months I've spent in the active duty infantry. I almost always bring trail mix, protein bars, beef jerky, and roasted chickpeas into the field with me. I just hate eating cold, unseasoned meat suspended in a weird sauce.

At about three minutes in it is noted that you only get a main meal rather than a 'kit' with the civilian MRE. This depends on what you are buying - the company that I like (Ration X, which I buy from the UK Amazon store) sells it's MRE main meals as well as 'MREs', which contain snacks, drinks, plastic cutlery, a heater etc. I buy the 'meal only' to have in my car in case of emergency, and full MREs if I'm going to be doing something longer term like a hike.

I've had my share of MRE's over time, both American and foreign ones. The things I always looked forward to when opening the MRE's is the orange flavor powder and whatever sweets like Skittles. I'm big on my sweets. Also the jalapeño cheese spread, just makes the bread more palatable. I do agree with the marble pound cake, it's great for being in an MRE. It'll be cool to see you guys collab with one of the big MRE channels like Steve1989.

Downside of those freeze dried outdoor foods is that the shelf life is not great it’s only 5 years compared to an MRE that can be stored properly for at least 20 years plus. So if you are thinking about prepping for SHTF scenario and looking for food that can have a decent shelf life MRE weather you like them or not but it’s probably your best bet or chef boyarde that we know and love and that just sits in the back of our shelves that’s been sitting their ever since you were a child and still taste as good as the first day you got them

In Slovakia we have a company that makes MREs both for military and for civilians (Same ones for both) and they are absolutely delicious,they also come with chemical heaters and sides or you can order individual meals and contents-both sides and accesories of the entire 24h package individually,the 24h pack also contains 3 meals. I tasted one individual meal-Chicken Rogan josh with rice from that company today and it was really delicious :D

Civilian MREs… A little surprised that they can compete with the military standard… up to a point. 😓 As soon as I saw that Jetboil thing, I thought, “Who the hell would shove that in their backpack?!” I go backpacking all the time, (as long as it’s above tree line!😁) and when I do I always cook my food the day before so I can just eat and drink as needed. I will admit the military MRE heaters are pretty cool. Still, “Blow up in my face!” HOLY QUACK you scared me! 😱

I've had both Military MRE's and the Freeze Dried MRE's. Personally I have the same debate as you guys do... Military MRE's have the entre, cookies, candy, sides etc. like the Spaghetti with Meat Sauce has, the entre, garlic bread w/ cheese spread and M&M's and a drink mix, as well as the cinnamon gum. So you get quantity, however I eat Mountain House meals when I go camping, although its just an entre what I get in that tastes 100000% better... If I have to pick, like I'm going to the field for lets say 3 days and its either MRE's or Mountain House... practicality makes me pick MRE's just because everything you need is in a MRE and i dont have to get or do anything like with the mountain house meals
