I started watching Steve just out of fascination, marveling at how somebody could eat rations that outdated most of us watching his channel. Then I came to appreciate the historical significance of it. Steve really gives insight to what we're watching and for the times and location and history behind the purpose of that that particular ration. I have learned a great deal from him and I think he should be somehow officially recognized by some sort of historical society. For I know though he may have, I haven't seen all the videos. Just my insight, sure I'm not the only person to come to that conclusion.

You try to imagine what it could be like living in the time of these rations-a weary, tired soldier that just has a precious amount of time to find some way to relax, if possible in their situation, to eat. The momentary break of eating a meal is very important for morale. Soldiers are tired, weary, stressed out due to the war or conflict they’re putting their efforts into, supporting their side.

I can however, put it on my phone, listen, and glance at the screen once in a while. Your MRE reviews are PERFECT for that. Thanks again for such amazing content

It just hit me... Steve is eating food that’s older than every human on this planet. The oldest human still alive is Robert Weighton, who was born in 1908! That is absolutely mind blowing to me

If a fact that basic blows your mind. You definitely need to follow Neil deGrasse Tyson on Twitter.

Food sealed into cans is just… magical. A good seal and some heat make food edible almost forever. I think there was a can from a century-old sunk boat opened a decade ago, and it tested safe for eating.

[@paulfreefall]

Just remember that your videos will last forever. Opening and eating these old rations on video is the best way to share them. Otherwise they could be on display, or in someone's collection and no one would ever know what's inside, or what it smells and tastes like. Love your work.

[@SGobuck]

He's right- we learned a lot more from opening and watching Steve eat it, than leaving it in the can for another 100 years... but Steve didn't get authorization from his commander before opening, so it's going to be a week of shit detail for him. Once again, Steve takes one for the team.
