Hey everyone, I hope you all had a nice Christmas with family, friends, and hopefully an MRE thrown in there at some point. It's great to be back after visiting some family for the holidays and here are two new videos tonight. This Chinese Type 09' and also a Canadian IMP. Oldsmokey just did a review on a Chinese Special Operations Food Packet ruclips.net/video/Vl4Ycb-Xyb8/видео.html Totally worth checking this one out while on the subject of Chinese Rations. PLA has more types of rations currently in service than any other country.
Steve1989MREInfo Hey Steve, thanks for the new videos. Just in time. I really enjoy them. However, you said/wrote something about merch a while ago... any news on that topic yet?
I can't believe I sit and watch some dude eat military rations lol. As a veteran, I do find it interesting to see how other countries approach their rations. It tickles me to see how much he enjoys eating them.
I eat 4 times when i duty at the PLA army. We often eats hot meal . It was like a studens i feel when i was a soldier. So someday suply MRE , it must is we outdoor to do trainng or repair Municipal (snow, flood) . We must happy for the meal , cause it was funny . someone like ,someone didn't. someone eat cupnoodls . I saw ones company cook cupnoodls using firebox, that's amingzing. that time just Menu A,B,C,D. But now Menu 1-12 . ( sorry for my English, i do my best)
Someone didn't like the MRE so they ate cup noodle instead? That feels... backward. But then again, I guess it's arguably more familiar for most people, I guess.
One of my earliest memories was eating those canned beef egg rolls as a child in 80s China! I remember them as being utterly delicious...basically like hot-dogs wrapped in an omelette (the canned version was much juicier) but I'm sure that memory's been distorted by nostalgia 😂 . The heated egg rolls were probably meant to be an accompaniment to the main meal, as plain rice tends to be too dull and Chinese people usually mix that with a saltier meat/egg/veg dish. Even boiled, salted peanuts work well as a side dish to rice, instead of eating it plain.
Maqaroon also eat dog meat 🥩 it’s really yammy 😋 when i was in China 🇨🇳 i eat sandwich 🥪 dog meat omg it’s really yammy I don’t joke you must try it bro 😍❤️
I once got stuck in China during the Chinese New Year and since all the shops were closed and the city seemed completely dead, I had to survive on canned food and rice cooked in a cheap rice cooker. Canned mushrooms and other stuff with spicy sauces were indeed unedible, but most of the canned fish was surprisingly good. And beans were also nice, I guess even the Chinese can't mess the canned beans up :D
What is this strange crack my husband has turned me onto?! Just two days, and I'm 30 videos in, bought a shirt, and can't stop saying, "Nice!" I've never equated MREs with enlightenment before, but darn it, I'm sold.
I watched another MRE reviewer and I have come to really enjoy these reviews. Steve is very critical of each of the MRE he reviews. Lots of details really give the viewer a great idea on what he is experiencing. Love this
My friend used to serve in PLA and he said nobody eats those flameless self-heating meals at all. Instead, they have dedicated food truck equipped with some really nice kitchen equipment and a dozen cooks for every company. He did spend most of his time deployed in the Southern borders so that could be one of the reasons.
So they only eat those only when they are in mission?and glad i heard that,well i am not china citizen but knowing a soldier eat that crap the worst mre between all mre around the world make me feel hurt
it is not that terriable to be honest, the food is quite decent and the price is fairly cheap, i ate a lot this shit during my days back in homeland in hiking.
To be fair, certain bases/provinces/countries DO take recycling extremely seriously, even with regard to MRE’s. In my experience, during training at 29 Palms, we were required to literally separate our MRE’s by composition prior to discarding them, even to the point of having to activate our ration heater with water had we not used it.
@Yup They also emit 30% of all greenhouse gasses worldwide. Granted the US has a higher contribution per person but that’s defiantly because of our penchant for automobiles. The solution to that seems far off sadly.
@Yup I said being eco friendly wasn’t a priority of china’s in general. I thought I should compare China with the US so as to avoid being a hypocrite demonizing China when the US is also pretty bad with pollution.
I just hope his videos never change my favorite oart is wheb he says "alright lets get this on to a tray, nice" lol and idk about anyone else here but i hope you had a Merry Christmas as well and have a Happy New Year
Spam is actually super popular in Asia after American GIs brought it in WWII. And yknow, it was food in a time where there wasn’t a lot of food. Hawaiian and Japanese food have spam sushis, and I know Chinese people like to eat it with rice.
I had a ton of fun with both of them - but especially this Type 09' - it was one I was looking forward to trying for about 2 years now. And in the two I had I certainly got a real varied experience.
@@bigsmall246 He's trying to make a crappy joke about the large population of China and that there won't be enough food to go around to feed all the military personnel. 🤷🏻♂️
@@bigsmall246 This is true. I think the soldiers are mostly fed from what chefs cook on the spot and not MREs. Most of their MREs still seem kinda bad though.
Gosh! That is so amazing and original! No one ever says that about Steve, and no one says it in every one of his videos’ comments section. How did you come up with that? It’s so great, please do tell. You are one clever, clever girl to come up with that all by yourself!
No matter how absolute shit my day was, the little editing trick he does with the drink stirring puts a smile on my face every time. Steve, you are a blessing
+MrFuggleGuggle No, that's incredibly bad. If you're out in the field you want your food to provide as much caloric intake as possible. It's why special ops purposely shock your metabolism to a crawl. You want a soldier that only needs to eat once a day and feel fine, as opposed to a soldier that gets hungry every 5-6 hours, and can't function. Maybe in garrison life it's fine. But I doubt they'd be eating this stuff outside the field.
I love Steve's videos when you work at a dead end job its really nice to come home and watch some who is genuine like Steve. He just comes across as a guy you would share a beer with. I had a money i would definitely donate to your patreon. Thank you Steve for all the good times and vibes you send through your vids, they keep the negative stuff at bay
It's only now coming back to this channel that I realize I enjoy it because it's almost like an ASMR video but without any potential creepiness. With all the quirky rituals and vocabulary choices and speed up moments and volume lowers it creates a really relaxing and comforting familiarity. I'd even say it's kind of intimate since he's eating.
I’ve been on hiatus from watching Steve, but I’m back now and pleased to see nothing has changed. Keep up the great work buddy. Watching from Western Australia
I had a friend in the army he told me mre' s made him constipated. What are your experiences with eating these. Like heart burn, constipation, upset stomach, or diarrhea. This is my second video of your thanks cool stuff man.
Big fan of your channel Steve! I often find myself saying "nice" just the way you do, and I always smile when I do. Thanks for becoming a part of my life.
Nice! Hope you’ve had a good Christmas Steve and I’m wishing you all the best for the new year! Looking forward to what MRE’s you have in store for us in 2018!
The most satisfying thing is watching you finish the whole MRE a lot of other videos even ones that aren’t MREs but are taste tests people just eat a bite then throw it out (presumably) but you show the clean tray.
honestly steve i cannot even closely put to words how satisfying your reviews are. i dont know exactly what it is, but something about your voice and pure, honest and joyful reactions really calm me to the bone. ive been watching your videos before going to bed for a while now and no series could compare. a good laugh, calming and interesting. thanks steve, nice.
Hey Steve, re the green noodles: the last time I ordered something that looked like that, it was because a caterpillar was in the beef and broccoli. The green guts had leeched into the meat.
Yeah that pound cake. Nah. It looked like it was still in a wrapper. Maybe it was a waxy case you were supposed to somehow peel off? Kinda like the babybel cheese. I was confused at those cheeses when I was younger and ate the wax coating along with the cheese. Ok I'm getting carried away thanks for the upload Steve.
Well I don't think Steve's ever going to open a restaurant, but hey, I just recently opened a bar in Kansas! If you live there you can always come and stop by. Contact me for location if you're interested.
This has to be the saddest looking MRE I've seen so far. It's like the stepmom that doesn't really like you took you to the 50 cent store and grabbed a few things off the shelf without looking. Here's dinner, kiddo. Just typing that out made me so depressed I lost my appetite.
Scutshakes luckily from what I heard they actually have food trucks so they make the food on the front, so I suppose it could be like the mother that loves you spending a whole afternoon cooking for you, but than again I haven’t seen them in action or ate them so idk
Warren, I was thinking the same thing. I'm guessing he knows whats in the ration beforehand and just figures it out by feeling the outside of the package. Just a guess...
Gosh! That is so amazing and original! No one ever says that about Steve, and no one says it in every one of his videos’ comments section. How did you come up with that? It’s so great, please do tell. You are one clever, clever girl to come up with that all by yourself!
Steve, I’d like to see you review a fine dining tasting menu. Would you enjoy that, or do you prefer covering military rations? You describe textures and tastes in great detail, thanks.
That's our afternoon tea between Airsoft games, reasonable priced and easy to purchase. Good stuff, keep it up Please don't act like this food is too artificial, we can trace each package to its original factory, so it's at least safe to eat.
Great videos and awesome comments as usual.. once again it's 2am and I'm watching Steve eat mre' s instead of sleeping even tho I work in a few hours lol
2:48 Steve's pallet has become so refined he can smell specific vitamins
Tony Guzman
I heard him say he can smell vitamin c before now vitamin b lol kinda weird but whatever
lmfao
I can smell vitamins. I've never focused on each individual vitamin smell, but Iron always stands out as one the worse smelling in my opinion.
Its almost like some kind of super power.
Hey everyone, I hope you all had a nice Christmas with family, friends, and hopefully an MRE thrown in there at some point.
It's great to be back after visiting some family for the holidays and here are two new videos tonight.
This Chinese Type 09' and also a Canadian IMP.
Oldsmokey just did a review on a Chinese Special Operations Food Packet ruclips.net/video/Vl4Ycb-Xyb8/видео.html
Totally worth checking this one out while on the subject of Chinese Rations.
PLA has more types of rations currently in service than any other country.
I hope you make 500k subs before 2018, would really cap off the year.
Steve1989MREInfo Hey Steve, thanks for the new videos. Just in time. I really enjoy them.
However, you said/wrote something about merch a while ago... any news on that topic yet?
I love you steve. You put your body on the line for my entertainment. I love you.
Thats "nice"
Steve1989MREInfo do you actually speak like a bro or do you put it on a bit for the videos?
Your voice genuinely makes me happy when you say "alright" or "lets get this onto a tray." I'm not kidding.
Me too
Nice...
Same lol
Nice
I can confirm.
I can't believe I sit and watch some dude eat military rations lol. As a veteran, I do find it interesting to see how other countries approach their rations. It tickles me to see how much he enjoys eating them.
Same here
Cobi Mistwalker it makes my day when he says “nice! Mkay..”
i think that's all of us lol
Haha exactly. But I still strangely enjoy it. I miss MREs
Me also vet. Me also like see, oonga, rations
*WHY am I so into this I watched over 20 videos and I can't stop PLZ HELP*
I'm right there with you. I need to detox.
It's too late... You've been absorbed
No you!
Jk, I also need halp.
me too it's inexplicable
Resistance is futile
That lamentation on the meager peach ration alone made me subscribe.
😂
I eat 4 times when i duty at the PLA army. We often eats hot meal . It was like a studens i feel when i was a soldier. So someday suply MRE , it must is we outdoor to do trainng or repair Municipal (snow, flood) . We must happy for the meal , cause it was funny . someone like ,someone didn't. someone eat cupnoodls . I saw ones company cook cupnoodls using firebox, that's amingzing. that time just Menu A,B,C,D. But now Menu 1-12 . ( sorry for my English, i do my best)
Your English was good enough. You had to eat these MRE's while out on patrol, but some people didn't like them and ate instant noodles instead? Lol.
I can barely spell the word Chinese. Your English is more than sufficient for communication.
Damn
Someone didn't like the MRE so they ate cup noodle instead? That feels... backward.
But then again, I guess it's arguably more familiar for most people, I guess.
Is it good?
One of my earliest memories was eating those canned beef egg rolls as a child in 80s China! I remember them as being utterly delicious...basically like hot-dogs wrapped in an omelette (the canned version was much juicier) but I'm sure that memory's been distorted by nostalgia 😂 . The heated egg rolls were probably meant to be an accompaniment to the main meal, as plain rice tends to be too dull and Chinese people usually mix that with a saltier meat/egg/veg dish. Even boiled, salted peanuts work well as a side dish to rice, instead of eating it plain.
when my two favorite channels collide looooooooooooooooooool
I was just reading the comment then I saw the avatar. When two worlds collide!
Maqaroon what are you doing here?? My two favourites 😍😍😍
Maqaroon also eat dog meat 🥩 it’s really yammy 😋 when i was in China 🇨🇳 i eat sandwich 🥪 dog meat omg it’s really yammy I don’t joke you must try it bro 😍❤️

Just two days, and I'm 30 videos in, bought a shirt, and can't stop saying, "Nice!"

have you seen the one where he eats 120 year old beef
One of us... one of us....

@@zanarkandace6821 The greater good...
I watched another MRE reviewer and I have come to really enjoy these reviews. Steve is very critical of each of the MRE he reviews. Lots of details really give the viewer a great idea on what he is experiencing. Love this
I'd love to see what a North Korean ration looks like
Nutz4Gunz45 round worm and rolling papers,dried parsley,fish hook.
It's just a bag with air in it since fat boy ate everything already.
Nutz4Gunz45 its official then, steve should review north korean MRE
probably a north Korean ration meal will look like kim jun un's cooking disaster
Lol what ration ?
My friend used to serve in PLA and he said nobody eats those flameless self-heating meals at all.

most proper armed forces food trucks MREs are for combat missions.
Well, that’s because MRE’s are for while you’re in combat... behind enemy lines etc.
true, we have a type of soldier who just cook in army called 炊事班
it puts a smile on my face whenever he says:
alright cool,...see ya
nice hiss..
alright, let's get this out unto a tray, NICE..
My Burning Love it's always a perfect cut to the food being magically on the tray and sends it over the top
I enjoy that too, and the little tune of the spoon clinking on the glass makes me giggle every time
I just start laughing uncontrollably when I see these videos so...
I'm so satisfied when he taps his spoon on his glass cups
I love the recycling symbol. I'm sure that's their first priority in combat lol
@section 8 I think he was being sarcastic
TBH I’m not sure being eco friendly is China’s first priority in general.
To be fair, certain bases/provinces/countries DO take recycling extremely seriously, even with regard to MRE’s.

That tone on the glass @3:30 is wonderful
Maxwell Flynn beethoven ft mozart damn epic sound was that
Maxwell Flynn magnificent
Maxwell Flynn Ringtone!
im not alone :'D
That's going to be the new notification sound on my phone. 3:30
Niceee...
Mines gonna be "Nice"
This comment is golden xD
reminds me of the Telekom jingle xD
it's crazy. It should have one tone, not playing songs
3:44 opens the pound cake dumps out a nerf football
Has anyone noticed how he changes the speed of his spoon taps in every video haha awesome
This is the 6th video of yours I have watched...I can't stop. Your stuff is strangely wonderful.
The glassical music!
Oh yeah, at 3:30
And here I wonder if anyone notice XD
*unwraps the video* And right off the bat, we have some Steve1989MREInfo, Instant Type II. Nice.
Sean McNamara hmm nice hiss
Not bad!
NICE!
let’s get this out on a tray
Very pleasant light undertones
Just what I needed to relax from this crazy day! Hope you had a great Christmas Holiday!!!
Hey Katie, that's the spirit! I had a lot of fun making this Type 09' review. My Christmas was awesome, thank you! Hope yours was too!
Your videos are super cool(history geek here). But I will admit, I mostly watch then for ASMR effect :D Keep the good work.
I just hope his videos never change my favorite oart is wheb he says "alright lets get this on to a tray, nice" lol and idk about anyone else here but i hope you had a Merry Christmas as well and have a Happy New Year
Katie Henson man your gorgeous !
3:30 Another ringtone material. Steve your glass is magical.
Wow 3 pieces of peach ..... morale shattering
Benjamin C hahahahahahaha
Consider the context. That's probably more peach at one meal than a typical civilian in China gets an entire month.
@@johnroscoe2406 There are still people starving in China, but in general, fruits like peaches are affordable for ordinary civilians. In most cases.
@@johnroscoe2406 yep，people eat apples instead
@@johnroscoe2406 Chinese citizens aren't dirt poor on average.
Of all the things to find in a Chinese PLA ration, Spam Wellington seems to be the weirdest.

Hawaiian and Japanese food have spam sushis, and I know Chinese people like to eat it with rice.

NICE!
yea bet it wasnt easy to get your hands on this one!
Alright! Let’s get this out onto a tray!
Wow, that is some budget meal. But it is to be expected with such a large army. Yet it does not reflect th complex and diversity of Chinese cuisine...
To be fair, we are looking at exactly one menu out of whatever number of menus they had.
Im surprised China feeds the soldiers at all.

Steve is the Bob Ross of eating questionable food.
Frederick Swan YES!
Nailed it!
If Steve was ever in a bad mood, my shoulders would sag, and I’d have to steady myself on a counter as sadness washed over me

I love the “Nice!” transitions
Double upload!!! Steve HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Hey Joshua! Great to see ya man, Happy New Year!
He replied! He replied!!! My man!!!!!!!
Well, this is awkward...
My name is Joshua too!
The three pieces of peaches made me sad too
Imagine you fighting the entire day it was hard and tough almost got shot and you only get 3 pieces.....I donno Id kill ma self lol
Trade the cake for more peaches?
Dorothy oh dorofee I'll send you some peaches
I mean, it will keep the soldiers "thin," right?
That's a positive...!

Maybe the egg rolls would be nicer heated up also.
lol that heating element was working a little too well
3:50 "that's awesome"
the stark contrast between what he says & what I'd say is what makes this one of the most interesting MRE channels
It's only now coming back to this channel that I realize I enjoy it because it's almost like an ASMR video but without any potential creepiness.

Lightly salty, and sweet, some what complex. I feel like adjectives are your super power. Nice work

nope! asian poundcake always has that waxy (maybe not that waxy) cover on it esp japanese poundcakes! they're very cool
Wow learned something about China tonight. Good stuff Steve
Yeah, they do not care on what their soldiers eat. That pound cake looked like if you dropped it on the floor it would bounce back at you.
even the sticky rice had no filling in it just red bean... kinda sad
Man, these videos are addictive. Good job!

Hey Jack, you're welcome! And I got some nice gifts indeed. The best one was getting to visit family and spend time together for the holidays.

Out of curiosity, how does he know what’s in the bags on the MREs that aren’t in English? Is he some sort of MRE polyglot?
Warren, I was thinking the same thing. I'm guessing he knows whats in the ration beforehand and just figures it out by feeling the outside of the package. Just a guess...
Maybe he uses google translate
He’s an omnipotent being who knows everything
He just uses a translator.
Steve is a MRE god. Just by touching it, he would know what's inside
I'm impressed that you can read Chinese.
the way you say "nice" when you cut to the tray cracks me up every time. I don't know if you're even trying to be funny, but it's great :)
Easily the best part of Christmas
Hey right on Rob. Hope you have an awesome New Year!
I can imagine him eating a real meal with his family or something.
“Okay let me just get this spaghetti onto a tray”
*puts spaghetti on a plate
“Nice”
Personally this ration reminds me of the UN 2000 ration, too much Is dedicated to the main resulting in the other components being tiny.
Dude instant sub, you got this Bob Ross way of explaining the meals. I'm hooked
Gosh! That is so amazing and original! No one ever says that about Steve, and no one says it in every one of his videos’ comments section. How did you come up with that? It’s so great, please do tell. You are one clever, clever girl to come up with that all by yourself!
I've just found this channel, and your videos are.. Weirdly mesmerising. And make me hungry.
Steve, I’d like to see you review a fine dining tasting menu. Would you enjoy that, or do you prefer covering military rations? You describe textures and tastes in great detail, thanks.
Good lord it would be depressing to be out in the field fighting a war and pop this open for dinner.
selanfene This is luxury food in China.
Albert Giesbrecht no it isn't, I literally live in China.
selanfene I apologize for my snarky comment.
What, you wouldn't be happy to see 3 1/4 slices of peach?
motivation to fight harder do you can go home to better food.
He tries to be fair, no matter what he’s eating - from any culture. It’s a great attribute!
I’m obsessed with these videos!
I like the way the glass makes music when you stir it lol
I see Steve, I hit like.
4:32 me everyday after I get out of the shower....
Better then the last Chinese MRE he did.
Yeah, woa, that thing was literally STEAMING.
That's our afternoon tea between Airsoft games, reasonable priced and easy to purchase. Good stuff, keep it up
Please don't act like this food is too artificial, we can trace each package to its original factory, so it's at least safe to eat.
Great videos and awesome comments as usual.. once again it's 2am and I'm watching Steve eat mre' s instead of sleeping even tho I work in a few hours lol
3:31 , the spoon sounds like a old android notification tone
Let's get that radioactive red pound cake and spamrolls onto a tray.....(insert sarcasm in comments)
ARPLATINUM and it smelled like a lead
"Nice, has a decadent flavour"
you mean a Desiccant flavor?
Nice mkay
Let's get that melted red crayons pound cake onto a tray, nice
The best PLA MRE is the canned stewed beef, you should give that a try
I really enjoy your MRE reviews. Keep up the good work!
This the best food channel ever!
