- Check out this review on a perfectly preserved Food Packet Long Range Patrol. One of the longest serving rations - in production for 54 years. And I can safely assume if stored properly, would last that long (or longer) too.

NICE HISS™
I'LL BE COMING BACK AT YOU WITH SOMETHING NEW OR OLD, ALRIGHT COOL SEE YA™

This is a good peaceful part of RUclips. No arguing or trolls. Just nice. Nice!
Technically, I am just a *polite* troll.. I haven't earned my wings. :)
Certainly a nice hiss
Agreed 👍✌

@@Joker-vg9wk lets start the day off right with some of that coffee instant type 2
The sharpness of that knife is very satisfying to me, anyone else?
PixelatedAF : Oh yes! Always good to have a very sharp knife on hand!
I like
Nice
Yes! Not sure why watching him slice into things it's so gratifying but it is...
It's a Buck. Cheap, but American made at least. I'm a Benchmade guy myself.
"Haven't been sick in over two years." - yeah, eating small doses of poison lets immunity build up, ya know?
CommunistKiro thought the same lol
thats the official version.. you don´t know how many times he pukes his guts out after making a video :)
He is immune to iocane poison......
@@insideoutsideupsidedown2218 Princess Bride reference?
then he ate the chinese mre's
Those will be Steve's last words some day, "That looks perfectly fine".
Nice hiss
no it would probably be "that tastes perfectly fine"
When he mixed the cocoa in with the coffee, I said Gross!! 😁
@@Freespeechassassin He once said that about his Ex.
@@creeguyvernonYou gotta try it. But use the sugar and creamer too.
My wife sticks her head through the doorway into my office, "Honey, dinner is ready!"
"OK, I'll be there in a second."
She notices the slightly glazed look on my face as I sit down at the table, "So what have you been doing for the past 4 hours?"
"Oh, just watching a guy eat old military food; MREs." There's no hint of apology in my voice.
"Really? Uhmm...ok...really, 4 hours? Anyway, dinner's ready."
I replace the beautiful china dish my wife has provided with a military compartmentalized tray. "I see that...let's get this out on a tray...NICE!" Each entre is placed in a compartment as I pour boiling water from my canteen-cup into a glass with freeze dried coffee.
"Huh?" She looks at me with doubting eyes and moves her chair away from me slightly. "So what do you think of my biscuits? It's a new recipe!" I notice the pride in her voice, but I can't help myself.
"They're a little thirst provoking!"
Life with Steve1989Info.....Thanks Steve!
AuroraMills hahahahahahaaaa
"a little thirst provoking" Bwahahahah! I can hear it in his voice!
OMG!!!!!!
That was a nice story I had no idea where you were going and then when I reached the end I felt nice and warm
Hahaha
The condition of some of the "vintage" rations and how well they preserved, always amazes me.
Pretty ominous when they pack the toilet paper with the main like that...
I thought of Beavis high on caffeine
I'm a simple man: I see Steve upload, I watch the video immediately.
Sperg Lawd me too
Same with me. 😊
Sperg Lawd darn straight
You all are awesome
Don't forget snacks gotta have snacks
I’m addicted to this channel!
We all are addicted :)
After enjoying black coffee at work for over 30 years, and after watching you, I now have instant nescafe and swiss miss for moca-chino every... darn... day. Thank you!
Hey Maik! Looks like I broke a 30 year tradition - hope it was a worth it change!
By the way, your P-38 keychain holder came in handy the other day. Was visiting family and we needed to open a can of cranberry sauce. No can opener in the house. So I busted out the trusty P-38. Thanks again for that man. Love that P-38 holder
I have steered clear of instant for the past 20 years, but after seeing the Tasters Choice in so many of the MREs I decided I would try it just to put some back for those mornings when I ran out of my regular stuff... And I actually drink it more often than regular drip!
Haha, I only used to drink instant in the field, but I have to admit that watching MRE reviews have made me into an - coffee, instant - slurping viewer as well ( on average, some 2 Liters a day ). Funny thing is that the army-mocha beverage thing was tought to me by my late Mother. Thinking Her parents most likely got into contact with scho-ka-kola back in WWII ( got a nice stash of that too :-)
Großer Maik That's "coffee instant" silly.
Großer Maik : I gave up on making coffee except for boiling water a few years ago. Kroger sells Organic instant coffee and I throw in International Foods Mocha, extra sugar, real half-and-half, and I have fancy coffee for .75.
And it's HOT.
I LOVE THE MUSICAL SPOON
biscuitgaming and the musical coffee bags!
Me after watching your videos recently..
Making my pups’ food...
“Let’s get this into a bowl.”
“Nice!”
Not only does Steve do the best MRE reviews, he has the sharpest knives and an awesome T shirt collection.. Nice!
As someone who has zero interest in military things, I don’t know why I enjoy these videos so much. I guess you could say they’re very...nice!
Everyone eats so you have the food element. Also not being interested in the military would actually be a reason to watch this because your lack of knowledge would spark your curiosity even more.
There's also intrigue and suspense with a touch of danger due to the age of the meals he eats. Any good movie also has these attributes.
Veterans watch this for nostalgia, I know because I am one.
The feel when you just sat down to eat and you see a Steve video
>posted 5 minutes ago
Now that is some awesome timing Austin!
nice.
We need a shirt that has a tray that says "Nice -Steve1989MREInfo" over it. I'd buy it and wear it all over.
Chiselednicknac : I don't wear t-shirts like that but what about a HAT? I would totally wear a hat!
It be especially nice if it was to raise money for homeless veterans or something like that.
they're available now a year later i think
Just started the video already know it's NICE!!!
Cool.
lets get this out onto a tray
chevy true
It's NICE, it's NICE!!!
is very nice
You must have an iron gut, if I ate half the stuff you do, I could shit through a screen door and never touch a wire...
Huntin' with Hattaway I'm dead XDDDD
Tha's a great way to say projectile shits lol, but yeah I worry one day Steve's luck will run out and he'll die of botulism.
That was the funniest thing I've ever read 😂😭😭
Huntin' with Hattaway 💀💀
Nice! N'kay!! Let's put it on a tray!!
" that slight chemical sting to the tongue....you get used to it " another great Steve-ism :D
I love how steve always makes a little melody by speeding up the video when he taps the spoon on the canteen/glass
Steve, your MRE vids are absolutely incredible. Hollywood needs to do a cable tv show on you and I really mean it. Lee Ermey (Full Metal Jacket) used to do a cable tv show about military tech back in the early 2000s, so why not you? There are other MRE reviewers such as, KiwiDude and Gundog who post excellent MRE reviews yet I think over time you have become the most popular. Yet I am thrilled that you guys collaborate, sending MRE samples to one another, building an MRE community. But do you remember the dude that pioneered the RUclips MRE review series? You guys were not the first to start a series of MRE review episodes. Back in the early 2000s it was a young guy in Yokota (Tokyo), Japan, going under the moniker, mrejap, that started it all. He found a way to purchase samples of MREs from all over the world including the former Warsaw Pact. Everyone loved his Asian-accented English but I think he did not know that and may have thought people were making fun of him. He videotaped his MRE reviews like all of you, point-of-view. He did include an odd twist, never copied elsewhere. He liked to collect plastic replica weapons and fiddle with them during his MRE reviews. He started collecting a huge audience and everyone loved him as much as we all love your MRE reviews now. Some viewers started nicknaming him, "Kato". I don't think he knew that, 'mrejap', was politically incorrect. Like you, Kato was willing to sample very old MRE foodstuffs. Of course he avoided spoiled ones. Once he paid for a box of East German, 24-hour MRE. It turned out to be nothing more than an assortment of canned foods that an East German soldier would have to lug around with him. And most of the cans were bulging, leaking, or burst long ago. Still it was educational, like your vids. Suddenly, mrejap just went off the air. He went dark. All of his MRE videos disappeared off RUclips. To this day, no one knows what happened to him. But MRE fans will always remember mrejap as the pioneer of the RUclips MRE review videos. True, other MRE vids existed at the time but those were one-off vids. No one but mrejap had a series of MRE videos like you guys today.
Much respect to you Grande Artiste. You know of Kato. Only a few of the folks here do. I spoke with him once on MREinfo years back (his screen name was actually Kato). I have a good friend in Japan who used to be buddies with him. I completely understand why mrejap deleted all his videos and went AWOL. If I could write a book.. people would understand a little better as to what is truly involved in this field. Things I cannot really talk about now. And I know Kato went through many of those very same things years back.
He still loves his airsoft - it's much lower stress for him. He keeps out of the spotlight.. and as for the overall lack of respect he received in the spotlight.. I would have done the very same.
He spent thousands of dollars and traveled for his rations. A true reviewer.
Your comments though Grande Artiste - are truly some of my favorites out there. Thank you for your input and perspective on these videos and body of work as a whole.
I would absolutely love to read a book written by your magnificent self! Especially if it contained things which you cannot talk about here. My curiosity is torturing me, mate.
Steve, are you able to tell us what actually happened to Kato? I hope Kato did not misunderstand his many fans on RUclips. I don't recall any negative or hate comments on his videos. True, there were comments about his accent but I perceived they were light-hearted from fans who actually liked him. It was hard not to giggle sometimes, like when he pronounced, peanut butter as, penis butter, or better yet, when he came up with his own unique English nomenclature, like, 'nightmare taste'. We all loved Kato just the same. If anyone can still get ahold of Kato, please tell him he has thousands of fans who still remember him and wish he would come back. In the meantime, Steve, you have been more than a worthy successor. I will shout out credit to your contemporaries who also posted well-done mre vids, guys like, KiwiDude (seems to have faded out), GunDog, and Nathan, the major players in the RUclips international MRE community. Over time, it appears you have become the most renown of the MRE experts. Myself, I've collected books on American military rations dating back to the Revolutionary War. That would make for a great historical MRE series. Much of the food would have to be just discussed or else reproduced for viewers to see.
I love how you always upload as I am about to sleep! :)
Hey TrueBlue! My apologies, I hope it doesn't end up keeping you up too late!
we love what you do Steve, much love. It's like bed time stories of the old ration times.
Patrick Ormerod seriously?
TrueBlueEG8 I'm a night owl😏
Patrick Ormerod stfu my guy
Nice
Not bad
Hank Hill Very nice!
He wants a propane review

Steve, I was in the National Park Service Youth Conservation Corps in the late 70s during the summer when I was in high school. It was in the desert outside of Las Vegas. My favorite part was when we were the field all day, we would get MREs. I loved them. I remember everybody complaining about them but they were great.
5:45 spoon melody 😁
JM W : Cool! Something to look forward to, thanks!
Steve is the closest thing we'll ever have to a time machine!
Thanks to the winter time I have one extra hour to watch Steve
Hey A. G. now that is the best way to look at it
A. G. It's still fall
Pancake Prince I think he is referring to daylight saving time. It changed to winter time this night. At least here in Denmark
UK here clocks went back 1 hour last night
A. G.
And now we've just lost an hour :(
11:10 I say that every single time I see you put a plastic spoon into hot coffee instant, or you use a plastic spoon to eat just cooked meals. I've been waiting to hear you say that for so long now. It means so much to me that you've said that.
Everything alright Hunter? Were you exposed to a lot of plastic spoons!
My dad ate the chicken and rice LRP all the time. The tape on the bottom of the main course bags are to seal the bag shut when they cook and also said you should fill the bag up halfway with those old lrps. They used to tuck them under their arms and they'd be cooked/ warmed by the time they got where they were going. He said the 1962 version was the best. Keep up the great work, Steve!
Steve you are awesome I have fallen in love your videos please keep up the good work I love the history of how our heroes had to survive also want to thank you for your service
So glad you like the videos, Ed! I'll keep em rollin
14:54 "that slight chemical sting to the tounge, but you get used to it....... cool!" You've become one of my favorite RUclipsrs :)
The messiah has returned once again, blessing us with top quality content and entertainment to gawk at in amazement
Jcirc The inhaler p
My girlfriend and I watch your videos together and we love them. You always make us laugh and keep us entertained. We're waiting till we have some extra money and we're gonna order some to try ourselves. So thank you man and keep the vids coming 👍🏻👍🏻
Alan Gerosky as far as memory goes,Mre star is pretty highly rated,the creme dela creme is still the rcw
*Steve Walking up to his house*
Steve's neighbor - "Hey did you hear!? It's nuclear war! Nukes are on their way here now!!"
*Steve clicks a button on his keyring, a small bunker slides open in his garage, packed with MRE'S from 1945-2017. Steve cracks a small smile and turns to his neighbor.*
Steve - ".................nice :)"
When he said i haven't ben sick in two years all that came to mind was.
That that does not kill us makes us stronger.
You sir are the strongest NICE
"That slight chemical sting to the tongue... You get used to it... Cool!"
Thanks Steve for another NICE review!
My sister and I like how you say “let’s get this out onto a tray, nice nnnkay”
...Nice!
Hey bro just wanted to say ill watch your 2 latest uploads after work thanks for the stress relief have a good day
Hey YungRetroGamer, right on man! I hope your shift goes nice & easy! Hope you have a great day too!
Always love when you add the creamer and sugar that are still usable!
That feeling when you realize 2 years later that you've missed one of Steve's reviews. Nice!
Steve's classic catchphrase always reminds me of a surgeon at work.
*scoops out internal organs* Let's get these onto a tray. Nice!
You’re getting close to 500k Steve
That is going to be a real trip when it happens, Elliot!
+Steve1989MREInfo You've made ration appreciation mainstream Steve
Two years on it's more than tripled. Congrats Steve.
3:05 a mist like orb appears and floats upwards... Its not the first time I've seen or mentioned them on these vids. These rations hold energy dude, preetttyy awesome.
I seen that too! Just appeared out of nowhere. Had to replay it a few times and showed the part to my wife. She said the orb was like, hey man give me back my food lol. I definitely agree with you, these old rations have energies attached to them
«That nice old library smell»
Go Steve!
Hey Steve! Hope all is well down there in Florida. Just wanted to let you know me and my sister have been watching your videos for over a year and half now and we absolutely love them. I'm so glad to see all these uploads. Would you ever consider doing a Q&A video? It would be a great way to hear about some of your best and worst ration stories. Anyway have a great night!
Hey Owen. Thanks so much man. All is well down here. So glad you and your sister like the videos! I am glad to have more videos out lately. Planning on doing a Q & A pretty soon. It's just something that I need to really be in the mood to do. The more the folks want me to do a Q & A, the more apt I am for actually following through and doing it.
Hope you have a great night too! Take care.
Steve1989MREInfo yeah dude do some Q&A
Live Stream would be great. BTW, I know what that cookie is like, I had a few in the 80's (as a kid) lots of my family were in the military during NAM, when they went state side they kept a bunch of those meals.
I really forgot about them till you talked about the chemical taste, talk about a strange flashback...
Steve! I didn't know you were in florida! makes me feel happy knowing we are in the same state.
Steve keeps getting more and more muscular, you can tell just by his hands and arms over the course of all his vids. (also best RUclipsr of his kind, nobody does it better)
Who else clicks on the video and hits like before the video even starts? Steve is by far the best military ration reviewer bar none.
So excited to see a new entry Steve! Great music as well!
I am really happy to have some new videos out for you and the folks here Muck Dog! And thanks man - I had a lot of fun writing that tune
Nothing like spending Saturday night with Steve!
Nice! Happy weekend Steve! Alright cool..
Not bad! And to you too, Joe! See ya!
2021 and I still love to go back and watch Steve’s videos. Nice!
Thank you Steve for bringing us all this historical info. I love to see your new and old content. I have so many videos to see still. I appreciate all the time and effort you have invested. Congrats on over 450k subs.
I didn't know they made those bags in the seventies.
Hey Perktube! This style LRP was first produced by Seal Bag Co Rochester N.Y. in the mid 70s.
The LRP was first made in 1964 and was in a neat canvas pouch. Planning to review one of those soon
Cant wait to see that. 1964 m y Birth year.
Perktube1 Steve educates as well as spreads joy. 💛
plastic has been in regular use since ww2
SGT ROCK it was issued but only to special operations units or units involved with long range patrols also thank you for your service
I remember back when I had debilitating stomach problems that kept me in and out of hospitals. Wasn't able to eat, and lost 70lbs [went from 200lbs at 6'1" down to 130lbs]. Started watching these in late 2015 back when Steve had only a handful of subs.
It was oddly calming and his in-depth descriptions made it feel like I was eating these. The LRPs and RCWs were probably some of my favorite to watch, and C-Rats & MCIs being the next best- at least they were entertaining even if not edible [the smokes were super satisfying to watch, and I wished I could have tried one of them!].
Doing better now, and up to 170lbs. I still love watching these, even if I've already watched them all a dozen times. Everytime I make a new account this is the first channel I sub to.
nice, was stored in a perfect location. It is always nice to see a ration this old that is still completely edible and not only that pretty darn good too. Thanks for the review.
Perfect timing, just sat down on the toilet
"That slight chemical sting to the tongue, you get used to it." Nice! Also your videos always make me want to eat a bunch of chocolate for some reason. Keep it up!
Eating a meal prepared 3 years before Rambo First Blood was released. Something cool about that.
1979, year I was born. You make a happy man feel very old.
i wonder if steve has a silent fart does he go "oooo nice hiss"
Braxton Hodges fart himself in bed and leave skid marks on the sheets
NICE Steve im all the way from sweden and truly love your videos keep it going and just letting you know youre amazing
Hey RazerNils, not bad! Thanks so much man - I will always keep making new (and old) videos for you and the folks here
"There's a reason why I rave about it. it's the best." Well that's probably the best reason to rave about it.
I love these consistent uploads recently used to seem like a month between uploads. Even then it was still alright though. Love these vids they make my day. Good job Steve
Stevo is back
Hey harry, it's good to be back. Been working on a huge project all this past week. Hoping to have it out by Halloween.
NICE
Steve1989MREInfo hell yeh I’m looking forward to it
SPOOKY
haha ...."Yeeh dude"
Chicken and Rice? More like: Chicken and Nice.
Am i the only one who, when hearing him say: "it smells and tastes perfectly fine", is secretly waiting for this to appear in the comments, or descripton?: "UPDATE: It wasn't perfectly fine....I've pooped.....a lot"
I ate tons of these things back in the early 80s. We like to get MCIs and pick through them and put the cans in GI socks and tie them to our rucks and packed the LRRP rations in our cargo pockets(just the mains) and off we disappear into the boonies. Loved the spaghetti it was pretty good.
It's nearly 2am here in Scotland and I was about to go to bed, then Steve uploads 2 new videos....
NICE !
Is it normal for me to dream alot about eating an MRE? It's not bad actually.
I do the same thing all the time Allison. If it's not normal, you're not the only one.
I recently ordered some MREs to finally quench my curiosity.
golf-n-guns In the name of Steve,I have bought case A and B u.s.a mre. Case b was my favorite.
I had one once. It was a spicy penne pasta one. Really good.
Time for a giveaway!
the mains in non-FRH rations always look real gnarly for some reason
They always do have the look, don't they? Thankfully I didn't feel gnarly later.
Reunited and it feels so gooood!
It feels good to be back with something new!
Steve1989MREInfo And old ^_^
The spoon tapping gets me every single time
Nice, in this episode, Steve eats everything but the book of matches and the spoon. Alright, cool.
You've developed immunity to the rotten old food! invincible steve
Healthier than modern food
He definitely has a stomach of steel
Why are your videos the greatest...
I feel so peaceful and warm
I am staying here forever
I found your channel a month ago just being bored on RUclips. And it turns out I love MRE reviews and your my favorite person that does it (: I binged at least 20 videos in a row 😅
Super glad to see another upload! Nice!
Super glad to have 2 new ones up! Alright, cool!
Was thinking about binge watching ur videos again but this showed up love the videos big fan and have you ever thought of merchandise like a shirt saying "nice" but anyways have a good day steve
Hey Warren! Perfect timing then, huh? Thanks man, I appreciate it! I am working on shirts right now - they will be ready for pre-order very soon. Aiming for less than 2 weeks from now. Hope you have a great day Warren - take care & see ya around
I can never get over how sharp that damn knife is
We used to buy these as surplus when I was in high school (early 80's). TBH we never found these to be worth the effort in the woods. There wasn't enough food to fill you up. We much preferred the surplus C rations.
That "weird old fudge bar" is nearly 40 years old. I'm stunned it hasn't liquified or otherwise decomposed into a vomit-inducing mush.
I reckon the much older meals were packed with less of a focus on the cost of packaging. Three years guaranteed shelf life under most conditions translated to a decade or more- in this case 38 years.
love your videos
Thank you, JDSWicked Gamer!
in 1969, the chicken & rice was my favorite. I recall the outer packaging being different but, that was a long time ago. BTW, 14 months in country, I (we) never had a problem being "stopped up," quite the opposite.
I toughed out a horrid migraine I have had for the past 2 days to watch these videos. Was it worth it? Yes.
Hope you aren't feeling bad after that chicken my man, love the vidoes!
I wonder how the nutritional value holds up on these meals? I wonder if the vitamins and maybe even somehow the actual calories get reduced over time?
Yes they drop alot
thanks for the two new uploads Steve!, love seeing what you have in store, it truly brightens up my day/evening when i get notified that you have a new video. Nice!🤘
I love this stuff showing what soldiers eat and emergency kits
Dude can you imagine if steve had to go to the hospital from these things?
"So what seems to be the problem?"
"Well I eat 50 year old food for a living and just hope for the best. Nice."
Did anyone catch the ghost orb above the spoon at 3:04?
It was the chickens soul finally being released
Glad you are back Steve and doing well. Enjoyed these new ones and cant wait for your new project.
It's always a good video when Steve mentions if there's a hiss or no hiss
Dude it's 1 in the morning
Percy Purple 8 at night were I am
Only 1am in Western Europe. It's just after one where I am too so I guess you might be from the Uk.
Posting at 8pm US East is about as late as I like to post. Where are you at for 1am Percy?
1:20am here in the UK
2:30am in serbia
Having candy before dinner are ya?
I recently discovered your videos and I'm just scrolling through the videos and all the positive energy and you saying hi to everyone that's lovely, you're rad Steve! Keep on eating!
I've been watching you for a few months, and I have to say you are one of the best wholesome channels I've found since the beginning of RUclips. I've even got some coworkers to start watching you after hearing me watch you during my lunch break. Keep it up! And take care of yourself with those old MRE's!
2 videos in a row?! Did Christmas come early this year or what?
Steve, are you a Frank Zappa fan? Me too! :) I've noticed a few Zappa things on your shelf in the background there, and a few t-shirts that you have worn in the past. Love your videos and keep up the awesome work. From Liverpool, UK.
Just had City of Tiny Lights in my head and then saw this comment. Nice.
If you ever get a chance to see Dweezil perform his father's work, it's a must see.
Thanks man - take care & all the best from Sunny Florida!
Love that song too! I've got the "Baby Snakes" live video version in my head now as I write this xD Yes I agree Steve, I've managed to see Dweezil play twice now in Liverpool, truly amazing seeing him play his fathers work, it gets emotional! I love me some Black Napkins and Watermelon in Easter Hey :) Thanks for the reply Steve, I really appreciate it. Take care dude! :)
One of my favorites was vally girl.
Okay fine, for sure for sure... love it.
"She's a Valley Girl - and there is no cure!"
Hey Livershot - Watermelon in Easter Hay is amazing. I would have to say off Sheik Yerbouti ya also got Rat Tomago and Yo' Mama ... both amazing guitar riffs as well and truly heartfelt at points.
I'm amazed, yet again, at how you managed to find another meal that survived the test of time. Thanks for the video. :)
I've been busy for the last weeks but now I have several new videos from Steve to watch. Nice!!
I always wondered how all this food is still “good” after all this time. Is it because it’s packaged so well or is it because it’s packed with chemicals to preserve it longer?
Probably both.
