    When I was out in the field with the Americans in 04 the first thing we did was swap MREs. As much as I love UK MREs, the best ones are any but your own. The Americans even agreed with each other that they now understand why us Brits drink tea. It is by far the best way to calm your nerves after a day of scanning mortar fire, chilling out with the boys at last light and reflecting on the day. It's the time to have a laugh and laugh. You can't beat a good cup of tea... Unless it's a pint of beer 😎

      Tea and biscuits are literally a tradition in Britain. Brits take their biscuits very seriously. During the recent flooding in May, there was a shortage and they literally flew in two plane cargoes as an emergency supply. If you get in between a Brit soldier and his tea and biscuits, you might get bayonetted ;)

    In regards to tea, if you've got a sore throat, I've found that melting/mixing up a cough drop or two in it helps a lot.

    • @Emeraldwitch30
      @Emeraldwitch30 2 года назад +3

      Honey is really good and (this shocked me when my dr told me) apple jelly melted in your tea is very good for sore throats. Something about pectin in apple jelly is very soothing to your mucus membranes. At least my old doc claimed.
      A big plus is while little kiddos might not drink a hot tea with a good cough lozenge in it so far, my little grandkiddos will drin a warm tea with a bit of honey and apple jelly in it. 🙂

    You are extremely eloquent describing the flavors of things, and your pallet is pretty sophisticated, I must say. I'd love to see a miscellaneous video of you trying different wines and getting your take on them.

      TheJohn8765 Jelly is just a jam that has a strong thickening agent - interestingly enough the further east you go in Europe the runnier the jam gets

    • @MEGACAMZ
      @MEGACAMZ 8 лет назад +18

      signs80 no, because Americans call jam 'jelly' and they call jelly 'jello'.

      @Mike-km2ct 8 лет назад +23

      Nah he was right, they refer to different things. Americans have jam too, they just don't eat it as often as they eat jelly, which is like a cheaper version of jam with less fruit

    Pro tip: add about 1.5 - 2oz less water to the rice pudding. It's best when it's juuuuust on the edge of being clumpy, but is smooth and partially gelatinized. Trust me :)
    Master tip: a little bit of cinnamon or nutmeg on top REALLY takes it to the next level.. but probably not ever going to find that in a ration lol even a little crushed peanut w/honey and/or raisins is fire, ration based or not.

    Those "M&Ms" are definitely smarties - with the pale colours, likely off-brand.
    And they aren't just in Canada! haha

    • @shepd3
      @shepd3 8 лет назад +11

      Yup. M&Ms as the default candy coated chocolate is an American thing. Smarties everywhere else on the planet. I prefer smarties, myself.
      Canada gets the best of both worlds, though, because we get American smarties as well, they're just called "Rockets" here. Woohoo!

    The reason most of the cold weather rations come in ziploc bags is for bathroom/washroom use. If you're in or near the arctic heading out of the tent to answer the call of nature can result in frostbite to important parts. So the bag is used until it's nearly filled (resealed between uses) then tossed out of the tent.

    Kenco is an amazing coffee for regular brands. It's one of the few good decaf coffees (the decaf version, that one was normal) that's available in the UK band doesn't taste like crap, it's good :)

  • @christopherwheeler688
    @christopherwheeler688 3 года назад +1

    I like the way Steve puts his hand behind small things so the camera can focus. A lot of YTers could learn from this. I think 150ml of water would have been enough in the porridge. British chocolate beats American any day!

  • @kris2317
    @kris2317 8 лет назад +1

    Those are definitely Smarties! They only use natural food colouring now, so they have lighter/more pastel shades.

  • @brianartillery
    @brianartillery 6 лет назад +92

    The good coffee was by Kenco - and it's superior in every way to Nescafé, which is pretty much on the lower level of instant coffee in the UK. Kenco tastes like good coffee, but Nescafé has a cheap, anodyne taste.

  • @vincedibona4687
    @vincedibona4687 6 лет назад +6

    Mix up the peanuts, "M&Ms", and broken up fruity oatie biscuits for an all-day trail mix. I think a good bit of this is meant to be eaten on the move, but with Steve's layout, that wouldn't work for presentation. Besides, if he didn't put all the stuff on the tray, his fans would revolt!
    BTW, I have been binge-watching these videos for three days now. IDK why they are so addictive, but he has a new subscriber!
