Even when there are missiles flying and buildings burning, the Italians have their priorities.
Yup, Italian here under Coronavirus lockdown in Milan. there are certain items such penne lisce (type of pasta) that are so despised by Italians that pasta shelves would be emptied by panic buyers but still no one would touch them. We’ve got priorities, ah!

Pure io
Prima avevamo anche le bottigliette mignon distribuite dal sottufficiale addetto alla mensa...non so ora ma all'epoca l'alcool non mancava mai, ricordo anche dei mini cartoni di pessimo vino tavernello e a volte la birra forst quando eravamo accasermati o in postazioni campali stazionarie.

Do you pour it right up, or do you mix it with something?
A British officer who was captured by the Italians (not an infrequent occurrence during the early part of the war, and vice versa) during the Second World War wrote this in his diary - "Wonderful meal in T. [Taranto] Steak-eggs-cherries-macaroni-white wine-macaroni-and Marsala. We should never have fought these people."
Oh wow
Sounds like I would end up being a POW for the Italian army and still get better food than I had at my college hall for the last 3 years.
The Italians were probably thinking the same thing.
That whine
Fascists in Italy are still making nice wines and food. Some funny designs on what they sell to tourists.

I worked with some Italian engineers in Namibia. The cordial was often added to coffee to make it “cafe correcto” grappa most frequently. Got to love those guys.
THANK YOU!!! as someone that used this rations... those cordiale shots are shit, it's just caramel plastic and alcohol... you HAVE to add it to your coffee to make it "caffe' corretto"!!!!!
"Caffè corretto", we also use to take the shot of grappa after the coffee, we call it "ammazzacaffè" (coffee killer)

@@matteopisanello7787 Il problema è il peso. La MRE italiana è stata giudicata la migliore sotto il profilo nutrizionale e dell'appetibilità, ma portarsi sulla schiena, oltre al resto, cinque o sei barattoli metallici ha il suo lato negativo. Infatti è prevista una nuova formula più leggera (anche se sicuramente meno invitante (tipo zuppe in busta chimica autoriscaldante) .
@@massimopalomba5009 Infatti, la roba in scatola è pesantissima. L'altro giorno siamo andati in montagna, io ho portato un MRE americano, un pacco di arachidi e 4 barrette proteiche, un mio amico ha portato tutta una serie di robe in scatola... Il suo cibo per metà delle calorie pesava il triplo del mio. Ok la simmenthal è buona, per carità, ma a 60kcal per 100g ora che sono arrivato in cima ho speso più calorie per portarmela appresso che quelle che mi fornisce mangiandola...
Yup, small breakfast (mine is usually a brioche and caffé), big lunch and medium sized dinner. I chuckled when I saw the cappuccino as I have bought that out of vending machines. The breakfast bar I often buy at the local supermarket. It's the same brand but the packaging is a bit more colorful.
It looks like barely edible nonsense food so I'd really hope not

2012 I was in Afghanistan with the US Army we were out in the field for 12 days and had run out of American MRe's. We worked with the Italians and they were gracious enough to throw some of their food to us. Wow that had to have been the best meals I had ever eaten during that deployment. Yes I drank the cordial in the field.
That's awesome. Thanks for sharing and thanks for your service.
As a Frenchman who's been living in North America for a few years, American food is overall pure shit, no offense. France does have great food, but Italy has even greater food.
Paul American food is all processed while Italian is mostly fresh and organic it’s amazing
I believe any time you get cordial in your MRE, that meal is officially duty free =P
the only truly unique american food is southern style barbeque, ribs/brisket, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy and coleslaw on a plate, im even starting to see burgers and steak as the barbarian meals that they are. I say this as an american thats been out of the country for most of the past 5 years..

*When you have a 40% Alc shot in your ration, you got to love the Italians taste for food* ... Keep you warm on a cold night !!!
despite the fact alcohol actually doesnt keep you warm at all. yeah
+fhhsvnggbh you do "feel" warmer though.
Gordon Hamilton ye, here in Italy that cordiale, or "cordialetto" as it's nicknamed by fellow soldiers, is used for many things, in the morning to wake yo up, at night to warm you up, but the majority just add it to their coffe to make a corretto, the tastiest way to start the day
May not "physiologically" affect your warmth, but there have been many-a-cold nights in the field where a swing of alcohol would have "mentally" warmed me up. Every little bit matters.. Including playing big spoon little spoon with your same gender mates.

When we were deployed we did some joint ops with the Italians, we would trade our MREs for theirs but they would always take out the booze 🥺 really cool dudes though
Are you mad?!
No Italian would trade their alcohol ration. How would they make their coffee?!
Lol
If you are commenting here, I bet you didn't give them that MRE pizza. There's no way you are walking out of that situation alive.
Being Italian, I'm surprised there is no shoe polish.
Shoe polish? Try hair comb - and gel!
Yeah well... maybe it's because he forgot his FUCKIN SHINEBOX!
Little known fact that coffee instant type 1 makes great shoe polish
You can kind of tell that the Italian army isn't the most focused on what they're doing. I mean alcohol in a ration pack, lots of clanky metal cans, toothbrushes... Luxury items, but you don't really have time for any of that in actual combat situations. But I guess it's understandable given their track record in recent conflicts. (I mean, if you're losing you can always switch sides :D)
i'm surprised it had a can of Estonian turkey lol
Your average Italian Military Ration:
- Mint Cigarettes
- 2 mini bottles of red wine.

We all know that Italian moms operate as mobile kitchen paratroopers that are picked up by The Fulton Recovery System after each mission.
And grandma would parachute behind enemy lines just to prepare me a good meal for when I get there.

If you had heated up the Turkey and gelatin, the gelatin would have melted down into a sauce. Same with the beef medallions.
BIG John F that’s what I was thinking
it work both way. that jelly is actually broth so you can heat it up and add a bit of water (very very little) and have an hot meal or eat it cold... I never ate the turkey one (i was coscript in from august 95 to July 96 in the Italian Army) but the beef version that we had was made by the same company that make it for the civillian market and I loved it (I still eat it today when I am in Italy)

@@cindyhua3951 thanks for what? It was a compulsory military service, all boys at 18 had to do it, and it was ultra-basic training.
And also heat up the rice next time, cold rice is terrible!
When I was stationed in Italy in the 80’s we could trade an MRE for their rations once and then the Italians learned there lesson and never traded ration one for one again.
Italian soldiers be like; "Lemme brush my teeth real quick".
So when you are getting shot in the face while in combat, at least you have shiny teeth.

Italians tend to drink their coffee very sweet. The reason I think that the instant cappuccino was unsweetened is because the cordial (which was most likely Frangelico [Hazelnut liqueur] or Amaretto [almond liqueur]) is meant to be put into the coffee as its sweetener. Both of them are delicious in coffee (and on vanilla ice cream also).
Cordiale is 40% alcohol, it's not hazelnut liqueur, it's a type of grappa. It's produced directly from the pharmaceutical department of the Italian army, so it isn't a commercial product. You can buy it on their online shop though
Depends but it's true I know alot of people who put a shitton of sugar in coffee

It’s just plain canned goods lol.
I served as a DI in the Italian Army in 1995.. the MRE changed very little.. one of the thing I loved the most (got them once a month when we took the recruit to the range for basic firearms familiarization)...
ohh one thing I forgot: over the year Ristora, the company that provided some of the powdered component in the MRE became the largest vending machine supplier in Italy so, as of today, in almost 80% of italian workplaces, when you stop for a coffee break and you chose tea, cappuccino, coffee, what you are drinking is, basically, the same stuff you got into MRE..
This is my ol' reliable video for when I can't sleep.
Same here. Check out Jerry on ChessNetwork too.
The Italians always had good rations. My grandfather and great-uncles tell me that Italian field rations fed practically the entire Greek Army in 1940.
Dorian Philotheates My great grandpa fought it the Italian Royal Army in the italo Greek war and he had like many other to starve and eat rats to survive. Italian logistics were shit
@@gabrielboi3465 italy army was bad solely because of the higher ups
@@gabrielboi3465 You should contextualize why the logistics sucked. we had emerged from a catastrophe during the 1st world war, and we did not even want to enter 2nd, precisely because we had to recover economically.Hitler guaranteed that he would not invade anyone. In the blink of an eye we too found ourselves in the middle we were on the African front (north and south), in Greece and in support of the Germans. let's say it's more than justified. then obviously we must take into account that the military generals in order to make themselves a good impression also lied about how things were going on the front and the condition of the soldiers.
@@thesupreme8062that's true. They didn't have a strong enough economy to sustain a prolonged war and that hurt Italian troops the most. They weren't bad soldiers, they were, lions supported by donkeys.
Italian here. I tried these a couple of time back in the late '80s. Very complete set. Now they are slightly different and there is more variety.
Bless the Italians. This makes me happy to see how much thought they obviously put into this and how much they enjoy life.

Note to self give alphabet soup to literate dark age people when/if time travel happens
It is if you havent eaten all day trust me
pasta fagoli is fucking delicious
Well, compared to most MREs, it pretty much is.
Wow Italy really keeps their boys going
Do u think that is a good idea adding alchool? Its a really Little dose so... Dunno. It helps the morale though
@but ton you see in Italy we use a shot of alcohol to producer a type of caffè also called corretto
This is a couple of good examples of how gelatine can be used as a preserver with meat and other savory items. Gelatine forms a sort of seal around the meat and preserves flavor.
The country has wonderful taste and tradition for food, so it is not surprising in the least that it was so awesome. What a wonderful country, I loved every minute of being there.

"Let's get this out on a tray....Nice!

+Christmas Crustacean 😂
Need one that says "Nice hiss!"
hopefully steve sees your comment and considers lol, he's the best MRE reviewer ever IMO, I'd buy a "nice!" t any day
'' That's not looking too bad ''
Best and most appetizing ration so far. Italians do know how to make their food it seems.
Steve is lowkey the original asmr 🤷♂️😂
OffCloudz facts.
More like mukbang
I love how he reviews these MREs like a 4 star meal. It actually makes me crave MREs oddly enough.
The Corona pandemic is making me want to go back and watch some of these again.

Remember when we thought it'd be over soon? :(
Nothing Beats watching his videos while having a meal, I swear his description even makes my meal own meal tastier!
I was going to have 1 instant noodle pack and call it a day. While watching this video, not only I have 2 pack of instant noodle, one wet and one dry, also had a bowl of rice, small plate of salami, one cup of Nestle instant coffee, one cup of root beer, and one tab of dark chocolate.
Steve subconsciously make us eat more!
Eating something that would be in a ration like crackers is so good too.
If this is what the enlisted get, I can only imagine how well the Officers eat
Dunno about how Italians do things, but wouldn't all ranks usually eat the same rations in most militaries? On the field, at least. Depends on the base, but I remember hearing officers having different mess halls.
The officer's eat caviar and dolphin meat off of the stomachs of naked virgins.
positron underVolt ✋🤨
positron underVolt lmao
In the US they eat the same MREs we eat i’ve tried different rations from deployments traded some, you can’t really beat a US ration.

"Okay, so we have a menu in here, wow. Am entire parmesan cheese wheel! A bottle of table wine. Canolis, a packet of meatballs and 8 types of different pastas. An entire pizza with a packet of olive tree seeds. Heh...wow."
Olive tree seeds 😂
Damn, I was expecting some lasagna and spaghetti with some authentic italiano pizza.

Non mangiamo solo quello 😅
STUNTS and a cadillac?
We have ravioli and tortellini 😂 but, yes sometimes we have spaghetti XD
But there are ravioli
I got one of these in Afghanistan. I was confused why it was so nice.
it makes the battle moral stronger, have you been in a cinema watching a movie for two hours hungry?, you just want that shit ends quickly and go rigth to eat something
Because it's not American. Oh wait, we're the greatest country in the world..
Dump the cordial in the coffee and make an Irish coffee.
Polish Sausage depends how you look at it. if you look at it based off of mre quality then you are right.

I love eating canned food and microwave meals while watching this channel... it turns everything into a gourmet experience.
The cordial is likely supposed to be added to the coffee. Caramel syrup in coffee is a big thing in certain parts of Italy.
Cordial ration is normally in Italian Army, when you want, in the coffee, when is winter...
As italian,i've never heard about puttin caramel syrup in our coffee.
Could you please tell me where have you heard this and if you know in wich part of Italy they put caramel syrup in the coffee?
Coffee with liquor is an Irish thing... not Italian.
@@bentv7 It is a thing here in Italy too. We usually put herb liquor in our coffee
Benjamin Ting coffee with alcohol in it is popular in many countries.
There's more plastic in that MRE than the entire Kardashian family.
