Also, check out another great reviewer & friend:

Hello everyone, this is a review of freshly opened components sent to me by my good friend and colleague, Ruleryak in the Military Ration field of documentation and inspection of older components.
I start ''digging in" to the food at 5:40.
Went back and noticed at 00:26 I somehow managed to cut off in editing the word "Survival" in the title presentation of the Ration. Just realized this after uploading/processing. My apologies. Also called the "Spreckles" sugar speckles - as I went back i noticed that was another verbal flub. Whoops!
Also, a valued subscriber made the much valid and respected comment that I did a little too much eating on camera with this one - I fully agree that it is an undesirable feature to munch away on camera usually. I excused that usual rule in this case to prove to you all this Ration was not only edible, but also fully enjoyable! Plus I had not eaten dinner earlier that night so I was a little hungry..! ;)
Will make sure not to be too gross on camera next time, my apologies, folks! Will make an edited short version of this video along with keeping this long version for you guys.
This Ration held up incredibly well for being over 46 years old. The Dehydrated Meat Bar, Ceral bar, and Fruitcake Bar were all 100% edible and tasted great. The instant tea and coffee were 100% intact and non-degraded. I somehow missed the taste test of the coffee, but I assure you I tried it out and it was dull, acidic, and sorta tasted like some old coffee you'd leave on the burner for a couple hours too long.
I have done an inventory, and I have enough material to provide reviews for over 2 straight years if I did 2 reviews a week.
So stay tuned, I have so much more ahead. This was perhaps not the most exciting review for some of you beloved reviewers because I did not open the main container for which these resided for the last 46 1/2 years, but I will more than make up for that with an upcoming Korean War-era SA-3 (Spam can Holy Grail).
Thanks for watching everyone!

LET'S GET THIS OUT ONTO A TRAY, NICE™
NICE HISS™
I'LL BE COMING BACK AT YOU WITH SOMETHING NEW OR OLD, ALRIGHT COOL SEE YA™
Steve, I can't get enough of your show. Please don't ever change the format. Your show is absolute GOLDEN..!! My blood pressure drops by 20 points just from watching your videos. I now have my adult son and watching, too.
Nicccce
2024, he still hasn't changed it. It's refined a bit with editing, but it's still the same amazing thing
I really appreciate how down to Earth Steve is. He talks through things in a way that someone like me (no prior knowledge on MRE and having just basic knowledge of modern war) can understand. And his passion makes this topic so entertaining. I even love it when he goes 'off-topic'. Never change Steve, never change.
Vintage Steve
Before the "Lets get this out on a tray, Nice!"
Right :-)
I seem to recall something about a chap who retired as a USAF General who was issued a tin of meat as an emergency ration as 2nd Lieutenant. He opened and ate it the day he retired.
OMG Steve has a little Chihuahua named Scooter!!! I didn't think I could like him any more than I already did but now I do!
He's possibly eaten it by now 🤣
Nice
HANDSOME beast! That's the dog...Sorry Steve.
I’m watching old episodes and seeing you doing a different format makes me realize how much I enjoy your catchphrases. “Nice”
I appreciate how mind-blowingly professional Steve is in these videos. He keeps his personal life and ration review life completely separate. I've watched almost all of his videos 3 or 4 times, and I don't remember ever hearing about his dog in any other video. He knows the channel is about ration reviews, and he keeps it about rations reviews. He never tries to pad content or mix in irrelevant information. Steve is a man of many talents.
And he showed the dog, knowing everyone would want to see Scooter. One and Done!
I’m scouring this channel for an episode that I haven’t seen and I found this gem. Cool.
Nice
Those sugar cubes were made at the old Domino refinery in Brooklyn, NY (at the base of the Williamsburg Bridge on Kent Ave.). My father was one of the three safety & sanitation foremen at the plant back then and we had those same sugar cubes in our pantry at home (and a white & cream colored cat that was found in the refinery, named "Sugar Cube", and brought home as a pet).
my mom has a box of Domino's sugar cubes at home.
I love that he was making this video at 3am. What a life to be cooking up 60 year old dehydrated meat with your dog
Hey Steve!
You can never eat too much on camera, we your fans love all the components to your videos. Don't change man!
19:50 "I don't want it scorching all over the place and messing up this griddle potentially." As you scrape the surface of the griddle using your metal fork lol
I absolutely love how Steve appreciates vintage labels & the artwork & his general love of life & adventure. If his personality were packaged & shipped around the world, MRE's wouldn't be needed for wartime survival.
How lovely
STEVE !! I have seen them all and I have to say I really enjoy your presentations the best. Super awesome, no bullshyt, proper appreciation and all. You really get a sense for your love of the MRE fetish. THANKS !!
I love how in the title it says "oldest meat eaten on yt" because you broke your own record by eating a "meat cake" from the 1800s and then again from 1906 lol you're a legend Steve!
Sitting here wishing this amazing video would never end. It's amazing how fresh it looked.
A bit worrying that we live in such a buy and throw away time now that stuff gets put in the trash the moment the best before date is over. Even with shelf stable items that hasn't been opened
Shoutout to scooter
Hell yeah Scooter
Why is crumbling then rehydrating the cereal bar so extremely satisfying to me, like every time
just wanted to say thanks for another quality video, I am currently binge-watching them at work . Never knew how interesting this stuff can be and I love learning new things, keep it up!
"Que aproveche" spanish, translates as "Bon Appetite" or "Enjoy" or "Hope it does good to you" it's hard to translate as there is not a real word in english, but usually spanish speakers says "Buen provecho" or "Que aproveche" before you eat a meal, or if you walk into a restaurant and someone is already eating or leaving the place you may also say that.
translates word for word to "good advantage"? or is Google wrong
I'll say it again. You're like the Bob Ross of MRE's. Your choice is relaxing, your eye analytical, and your experiences priceless. I could never experience the variety of MRE type items that you have, but thanks to you and these videos, I can do so by proxy. Your passion and love for this subject matter comes through in each one of your uploads. Please do not ever change the format or approach in your videos.
I love your videos! Once I start watching I can't stop. Your reactions and comments are what make this interesting, please keep uploading more!
This was honestly one of the most interesting vids you've posted, Steve. I cannot believe it has so few comparative views. Thanks much for posting, bud. (Edit: I think I meant to say "likes" instead of views. Excellent episode.)
Man, that "Que aproveche!" wrapping and logo is gorgeous! Packaging was so classy, man. That's just for a fuckin sugar cube!
dehydrated meat bar, the rarest jerky ever
I have somehow become a huge fan of your channel my man! You seem like a great guy, which is probably the reason! Keep doing your thing buddy! You should do a Q and A. Thanks for the infotainment!
My favorite RUclips channel, by far.
You are forgetting that even many non-smokers would carry a Zippo lighter with them. One of the best emergency firestarters you can carry. Beats a butane lighter anytime. Aggravation is the need for fluid and flints to keep it running.
I certainly wasn't expecting this to be edible. It's really amazing when you find food this old that you can still enjoy.
Wow.......I am amazed that ration held up so well. I agree it must have been stored perfectly.
Have you ever seen an Israeli MRE? I have not seen anyone do one yet.
I like that you are doing the oddball stuff.
Went back in time to watch these again. Not disappointed. Cool stuff.
Awesome components! I can't believe how well all that stuff held up.. Comes to show how old technology was well engineered..
The meat bar grilled thing is basically Chorizo.. I imagine it tastes close to that with the spices.. Lol
+Steve1989 MREinfo awesome review bro! Lol I hope it all went down well hehe.. Yeah, definitely try out chorizo.. Is basically aged and spiced meat.
shout out to Steve. hope you and your family and friends are ok and doing well from the hurricanes in your area.
I had no idea MRE opening vids were a thing until I stumbled across your channel. It's weirdly fascinating. Thanks for the introduction to... whatever this is :)
One thing I've noticed is that the older rations do seem to hold up better than the newer ones. One reason I can think of is that with the older ones they expected to keep and re-issue this stuff until it was gone to save money, so the older ones were made to last. The newer ones are likely made by the lowest bidder and are intended to be shelved only a couple of years then be discarded.
It amazes me how well these rations survive and we have trouble trying to get rations to survive a tenth of that age.
Ah man, was hoping you'd taste test that coffee -- it looked amazing!
Just found your channel a few days ago and it's unreal how addictive your videos are. I've been going through all of them, and I've particularly enjoyed the ones with the cigs in them, heh (not a smoker but it's cool to see those old school packs and how well they held up.)
Your light-hearted, laid back style really goes well with the content too. Keep it going!
Wow! You had the most perfect ration possible! Good going. Love your channel!
Love the fact steve always puts preservation and history over his content..
OK now iv been watching this for 5 days straight...
Awww! Scooter! Steve can't feed his Scooter ancient food, it might make HIM sick! Wotta guy, wotta guy. Biggest heart on YT.
That meat bar is such a weird and satisfying invention.
Dude that intro was magical
I kept thinking during this video.. Don't do it, Steve! This ration is as old as my hubs. What scared me the most of the dehydrated meat bar. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I wonder how it kept so well, the items don't seem to have all the preservatives that are used today. Pen flare gun demo, please?
+sleepyfacedangel I figure so long as he took the lead belly perk when he created his character he will be fine! lol
+Steve1989 MREinfo you should do a video about this experience for other people who collect MRE or have a surplus of long term food storage, so they know what to not eat and minimize the risk of getting ill if they want to eat them.
Wow...a video before the trademark "NICE"
Am I the only one that watches these again up to years later when the algorithm shows them again?😂
I don't think I would have the stomach to try eating something this old.
“My little dog scooter” I love Steve 🤣😂
Keep up the good work Steve, you do some of the most interesting MRE reviews.
I'm gonna sub because I love this stuff, thanks so much for the great content. I really hope I can come across such historic relics like these.
The genesis of the tray cut! No "nice" just yet though...
You know it Andy!
Rare sighting of Steve's arm hair! Lol love the vids
Wow, really amazed how well all is preserved after 47 years! That would be the MRE to stack for doomsday :) Thanks again, I enjoyed the video!
I love how he scoffs at taco bell but eats 60+ year old rancid food on a regular basis hahaha
its actually 10000000000000x better quality even rotten
Ryan Racioppi Old food is less toxic than mystery meat at Taco Bell is why.
Still better than Taco Bell.
Word lol
Coming from 2024: Buy Nvi... Taco Bell is still stoxic.
I'm binge watching your videos.... Screw that person who said you did too much chewing on the video. That's one of my favorite parts. I love all the noises from the chewing to opening cans with the P38 to the wonderful hiss from turning the key..... It's all good.
"I can't help myself." (You say this when you're going places where you maybe shouldn't.)
Unreal how great of a condition that packaging is in!!
I love Steve
This guys guts must be packed with the best microbes known to humankind. God bless him.
Man tell me about being late. I guess I was just saving the best for last, your videos really are great and I hope you had a fantastic Christmas and that your year started well!!!
The celebrations were great, thanks for asking. Great logo by the way!!!
That dehydrated meat bar looks delicious
His arms are not shaved yet! 😲
I thought he had two Chihuahua's on his arms! lol
:)
Man when you cooked that beef... I'd much rather eat the solid 'powder' compressed into bar form haha. That looked gnarly man. That was older than fucking Woodstock.
Hahahahaha
I was given several of these by my Dad back in the 60's. I tried everything the only thing I liked was the fruitcakes. My dog loved the meat cakes but I did try them with onion mix but they were still horrible. Coffee was okay sugar cubes were just that sugar. The cereal bar was ok but still not the best. The girl scouts put out a new cookie one year and they tasted just like the cereal bars. It was weird as the taste was not good
Lol "i dont want to mess up this skillet" as you drag a metal fork across it! I cringed lol always wood when using non stick buddy still interestin vid.
steve at taco bell: do you have any meat older than 1968?....no sir, it's just whatever comes out of the meat hose.....i think i'll pass......
They have found packages of Pemmican from the early 1800's that was still perfectly Edible
Exactly and that’s essentially what the dehydrated meat bars are, except for berries
Someone call my boy Steve
Watching at 2am, you're reviewing at 3am. Mmmm, nice.
I didn't think you ate too much in this video at all and I wouldn't have missed one minute of the video! A great deal of the reason I am here is to see the food and how edible it is. So if it's good enough for you to eat most all of it I'm happy to watch and listen do your commentary on the food.
Hey Steve, do you post any of your music on the internet?
Scooter: *farts*
Steve: Nice hiss.
Thats funny
I've been watching a lot of these videos from Steve 1989 MREinfo. And I am curious where your passion for MREs comes from? The history? The food distributors? The experience of eating the food itself? I think the history is amazing. And it's not commonly thought about, but no matter the circumstances we need food. Thanks for the videos.
It comes from god.
Sometimes someone is giving it to him and sometimes he ordered it on ebay
short,bald,man I know my personal interest is how food can be virtually frozen in time and not decompose. The fact that cow was butchered and packed in 1968 and actually eaten decades later by someone who didn't even exist when it was made is cool to me.
Steve's videos are to people what Demerol is to intractible pain. Totally rainbows & euphoria.
It sucks that they rarely use Demerol in medicine anymore
"Mmmmmmm dehydrated meat bar..." I almost fell out of my chair laughing. You're killing me man.
Steve, I enjoy your gift to us common slobs so much.
Thank you, brother.
Scooter looks like he's a good boy!
"I dont want to waste any of this, its literally is my dinner and its 3 in the morning" lol I knew youd have to be pretty hungry to eat these.
I love this guys review some old packages MRE
each video more fascinating than the last. really enjoy your channel.
Hmm-mmm good times for 48-years old food stuffs. Yummy 48-year old Meat Bar. Great work as always.
With the oil you added it's probably going to be on the greasy side. I could see grease bubbling around the outside before you added oil. Crud I love it! :-)
That’s water
Great thing about those tins is you can polish them with the chocolate to a shine, to use as a signal mirror.

I doze off watching Steve's vids..so relaxing!
"NOV 8 1968" - november 8th 1968, date code decoded - Steve1989
Those meat bars are super cool, as is the fruitcake bar. I’m shocked these look so perfect.
"...like...anybody ever have a food packet, survival, general purpose - and they have the cornflake cereal bar?.." Can't say I have, doesn't stop me reaching for the sky though!
Steve... about 99% of fruitcake is Christmas gifts. ( CLaxton) Most of which is not eaten, but re-gifted to another " relative". As many of these are not re-discovered until the next year, it is not uncommon for a fruitcake to re- gifted about a dozen times, until they get to a suitably needy starved relative. Usually a young person /college student. It's not uncommon for a Christmas fruitcake to be eaten after about 14 years of re-gifting. :)
During Basic ( 1974) we were advised to save C ration fruitcake as a survival ration.
Next time you get one of these meat bars, you need to prepare it authentic style. In the can, over a campfire.
옷 mmmmm botulism
Man I have been binge watching all your videos while I play zombie survival games. It's nice!
+Steve1989 MREinfo NICE!
was hoping for a dog reveal and we got it
And he waited THAT long to say something about it??😂
That meat was packaged during the Apollo 7 mission;)

*reading in my head*: “Spreckels”
*steve*: “SPECKLES”
wouldn't using a p-38 to open your rations leave nasty 9mm holes?
Awesome vid. Great to see another Floridian on youtube.
LOL! "TOTALLY out of this world disgusting!" Steve cant even say "disgusting" without it sounding pleasant.
Out of curiosity when you eat some of the old food, do you ever get a stomach ache or the shits??
The food scientist of the manufacture done a good job in its preservation. LOL im getting hungry now i want one of them dehydrated meat bars. great vid
Good call not giving it to your dog scooter because onion is actually really bad for dogs in a small amount it wouldnt kill him but still causes damage and im usually the guy thats annoyed by people who are like "human food is bad for dogs" because of how horrible dog food is produced sometimes but tbh its cost effective so i try to give my dog certain human food when i can
i like your videos, you seem like a nice guy.
"Yea let's get him out onto a tray" "nice!"
Can't give any to my dog Scooter. It might make him sick. Munch, munch, munch. LOL.
Lots of respect that you didn't subject your dog to the taste testing. In general dogs have a stronger digestive system than humans, except yours. Man you must have a cast iron stomach!
Keep them coming dude! I'm hooked!! I'm a subscriber!👋😃👍
I also believe that breaking up the corn flake bar in hot water and making amush out of it and adding a little sugar to it would be more like a comfort food to take your mind off your situation
