    Congrats on the 25 Grand. As for the comments, that looked good. Your hair is fine. Trolls are under the bridge. And, another good video. Bring them on! (the videos that is, not the Trolls, and the hair is long enough).

    How about a COSTCO episode? I know, I know, Costco is geared to bulk items, like a box of 20 Skippy creamy peanut butter wafer bars for $10.99. But when you divy it all out into MANY MREs, the price is super cheap. The only downside is if something isn't quite a great find, you gotta deal with a lot of it.

    • @MisteryMan2000

      If he does go to Costco, I hope he'll try the Tasty Bites - Madras Lentils and Red Beans pouches. So good and very filling.

    Great video! Congrats on 25k subscribers!! I am a huge fan of the Fillo brand (which I discovered from your videos!) but they have an impressive array of pouches of lentils, or beans, and different sofritos, several which are available at Whole Foods. They've added some new tamales, as well. That chili, tamale and sauce combo looked awesome! Keep up the good work!

    Congratulations on hitting 25k. I always look forward to your videos.The trolls are people unhappy with their lives. So, they try to make everyone miserable. I just laugh at them. Again, I get great ideas, of how to build my own homemade mres from you. Thank you, for saving me from eating Sub sandwiches and pizza, every night I work. Plus, the other food and stuff we sell at the gas station / convenience store, is hella expensive. So, it saves me a lot of money. I hope you get even more subscribers. I send good thoughts and blessings to you and yours. Have a great week.

    About your hair…
    Confession. The first time I saw you, the first thought that hit me was Wolfman Jack.
    About the MRE, I think that adding rice would put the MRE into either a young man meal or a meal for two for (cough) people of our level of sophistication and grey hair 😊
    Keep going strong 🎉

When I go out on the boat I bring what I call a snackel box, a plano tackle box filled with cured meats, cheese, crackers, and nuts. Charcuterie on the go. Those Fillo walking tamales are good! I can't always find them. Thank you for the video, I look forward to the next one.

I have been wanting to try and replace with some cocoa PB2 powder and have run out of my plain and need to replace, maybe cashew also if I see. A good lower fat, high protein addition as well

    I have tried every brand of chili on the market that I have seen, and they all have that canned taste so I can my own. That corn tamale sounds yummy. I don't have a whole foods around me, but if I see one in my travels, I'm going to stop and get a few of those. Man watching these videos before breakfast makes me hungry. Think I'll serve hubs breakfast in bed because I'm heading to the kitchen. Have a great and safe week.

    Any chance you could try and make a fully gluten free MRE? My partner and I are making a bug-out bag, and your channel is really helpful! I have a wheat allergy though, so I’d be really interested in what you’d do. I’ll probably get my supplies at dollar tree or Walmart, but I’m mostly just curious what you’d do for allergies.
    Also, we got some caffeine gum to put in our kit. Might be a fun thing to keep in mind for yours 😊

    • @dadbudgetadventures
      @dadbudgetadventures  19 часов назад +1

      I have been asked about that a lot but I deliberately avoid doing meals based around dietary restrictions. The reason being that I don’t know enough about it and would likely get it wrong and create problems for myself and others. We had a friend with celiac and, although she had been dealing with it for years, she still struggled with the subtleties of the diet. I’m not sure I would be the best to advise on that.

    Kroger (or maybe walmart)in this part of Virginia have Bean Vivo brand three bean chili in a 10oz pouch. Its also vegan and surprisingly tasty.
    Kroger also has refried beans in a pouch by Isadora. Here is your chance to make a bean buritto MRE.
    Going back to the episode with the pasta in a pouch, Barilla now has some, made in the USA.

    @JAB671 День назад

    Good one! I am excited to see the charcuterie. I found some packs of Columbus brand salami some months back. The packs are flat, clear plastic and the salami is sliced and arranged in two rows. The best part is it said 'refrigerate after opening' on the pack so refrigeration not required when unopened.
    You mentioned watching salt intake, etc. and it reminded me that I have been meaning to mention something I came across at an Ingles which I have not seen, before. It was Dinty Moore Beef Stew, packaged the same as the Compleats just like I often see but this one had a label that said "25% less sodium". It was with the other Compleats, including the regular Dinty Moore Beef Stew. I tried one and honestly didn't notice much, if any, difference in the taste. Sometimes less sodium versions can taste a little 'flat' but this was just fine. I'm not sure if all Ingles locations stock it or not and have never noticed it anywhere besides Ingles but surely some, other stores stock it.
    Funny: the autocorrect on my tablet 'corrected' Dinty Moore to Dingy Moore. I was tempted to leave it.

    Good morning Brother. We would love to see a Charcuterie type MRE. when camping we always incorporate Charcuterie type meals in the evening, mostly of Mediterranean style meats, olives, cheese, hard breads, with pickled carrots. We also prep a few meals prior to the camp, and flash freeze & vac-pack. I buy the Filo products from Amazon, and they are included in our prep storage. Those things are addicting, Thanks Brother for all of your hard work to entertain, and instruct. I have for several years now, found certain condiments that are hard to find in small quantities, therfore I buy the smallest quantities available and trade them to other campers. We keep a plastic box loaded with a selection of condiments in our chuckbox. Keep on keeping on my Friend. See you on the trail.

    Espresso is bitter. Between the dark roast, fine grind and amount of grounds used to brew it, it will be bitter. That is why so many people do not drink espresso by itself but have it as an ingredient in other drinks like lattes, cappuccinos, etc.

    I love Whole Foods, I just wish they had more carnivore options. That being said, one of my favorites is Chili over Rice, would do wonders to thicken up a more soup like chili. I am also going to be buying a dehydrator soon, something that I think I might do is dehydrate some peppers to add bulk to foods, throw them in after they are warmed up, let them soak up some juice in a soup or chili and away we go. 🍻 (EDIT: Ohh, CONGRATS on the 25K!)

    The packaging of the chili would be fantastic if we could find soups, stews seafood dishes and yes, great chili that was packed this way. Other than imported milk in a carton, we have seen no products like this in the Philippines. I guess it will do no harm to ask at the customer service counter next market trip.

    Charcuterie? yes, please. They'd have been more honest if they called that main "bean soup". That's just fine, but it is NOT chili. That corn bar is fascinating. I can see piling BBQ beef, real chili, chicken chunks, or even tuna on top of that for a great meal.
