ration

Really good. for any military ration from 1959 to 1971 they had cigarettes in the accessory packs now let's check this one this one has cigarettes so it was made since 1971 or before we'll find out the year because a lot of times these cans I have lock codes look at the old school spoon there and here's the accessory pack look that the cigarettes match the gum toilet paper coffee instant creamer substitute sugar salt and a pack of Cadillac soft stimulator products built in now Not sure of the year yet but we'll find out in a of these cans, oh boy, a b2 unit that seems to be slightly bulging, well this one here is from January

1969

, boy, which was right at the peak of action during the Vietnam War, so this is definitely a ration from the Vietnam War, that's for sure, just that black tar like this, it's definitely a leak from another can or this one, oh God, ground beef

spaghetti

, it's not even like they're telling you what I, I guess I do meat, but why do they say with ground meat? meat, why not ground beef?

Oh I don't know it's always a bike full of mystery Tony Downs Food Company St. James Minnesota it's nice so listen oh my gosh I don't know okay let's see what else is here first take a good look at the inside that box. You'll see they have it separated with these cardboard parts here, so these cans can have a slight protection there's not much to do, it's an interesting lock, look, this is a pecan pie roll. I can almost guarantee that the nuts will be rancid in that bad boy, yeah, you know, nuts usually don't hold up in a serving anymore, it's probably been 10 to 15 years, so with this serving being about 47 years old, I can almost guarantee that This pecan pie roll is no good because those nuts are going to be rancid, so there you have a serving that looks pretty simple.

I mean, this b2 unit probably has cheese spread in there. I can always tell because of this lump, I mean, the cheese spreads well, awful, at least, well, it looks pretty good, let's get it out on a tray, okay, so first of all we're going to get out that p38 can opener. This is super useful, you've probably already seen it. What I love about these things is that you can always count on them. I've never had a malfunction or the p38, let's look at those

spaghetti

to start, oh, he opens these things from the bottom because you know. what you want to wash these cans and save it don't throw that story away you preserve it by opening it for the algae and it rusts oh man I can smell that sauce I'm surprised the ketchup hasn't been eaten Through this can already man it's So sour and sour, oh yeah, here we go.

Hey, look at that little check, look. I don't think there's any rust on that can. Don't you see that every day, tomato sauce is usually eaten. the can, oh, let's just throw that one in there, grab another p38 and we'll get into that in a second. I just want to get this out there to deal with it. Yeah, there's a reason, oh man, oh, I just, oh, what is that? to that here there's no turning back now oh that's like I can smell the cheese no, no, what am I getting myself into here, yeah, yeah, oh, it's in my room and it's horrible, oh man, jeez, man, oh yeah, first there were those cookies, I'll show them to you. you cookies are all soft they'll be like I hate the dark okay they're not supposed to be that dark and they're probably soggy yeah I feel soggy oh man why do I do this sometimes?

I'm just wondering Look at that tape cheese bread tape wasn't bad enough, yeah, yeah, why look at that? They always burst Tania cheese from the 60s and it just doesn't hold up well. You know what I feel. I need to wear a mask. Second, okay, that's much better. You know I should have been doing this a long time ago. You know it has bulging tires here. It is very difficult to pass it. I'm like one millimeter at a time. This is the most unpleasant smell. you, I'll smell some things, there's something about this, it usually takes the cake, one with the difference between type 2 spread and type 1, and I still smell that even with the mask, things that do come to me, this stuff definitely It has black mold.

It's my guess Hey verdict oh yeah I can smell that through the mask okay you know this will be the death of me one day yeah this is going in the trash that's the last time I open another cheese spread my Room stinks and I mean. that I wouldn't take off my mask, I must be, you know what these cookies smell like, oh man, dude, I feel like I smoked a cigarette just to get the bad smell out of the cheese and brown, it doesn't smell. Well, you know, that's bad, okay, come on, let's open that pecan pie roll hmm, hey, that's good, well, you know, to cover up the smell of 47-year-old cheese spread that went bad long ago. time, you open a stale pecan pie roll. nuts and rare fruits I can't explain it to cover it up and then you find a 47 year old cigarette.

I'd rather eat an old lime green Jell-O and then open another one of those string cheeses, that's all, unless I open it outside next time Sorry guys, it smells good now. Nice cinnamon and stale nuts, which I find to be a big relief compared to come on, let's spoon it out. This will not be a smooth 1%. extraction, but you know what you've got, take it out anyway, come on, well that wasn't good, yeah, I can see the nuts are very dark in there, they're definitely rancid. I could also smell it, it has a specific kind of smell.

It smells fruity, it's like it smells like some kind of dark fruit, like raisins, like this spicy other thing that's going on that I can't describe at all, other than it smells like rancid nuts, these things are totally stuck and I mean , God, like that. bloated there here, let's see if this makes a difference. Wow, it's all greasy and stuff. I hate to do it all the way up, but sometimes you have to go up, you know, it just doesn't come out, it doesn't come out, it's totally stuck there and that's just not happening, just imagine this out of the can, okay, it's just a little circular roll. , yeah I can't get it out of the can if I was going to eat this saying if the nuts weren't rancid and completely disgusting from probably 20 years ago I would just eat it with a spoon straight out of there that's how I would do it if I was stuck in back then, which I imagine wouldn't be stuck if it wasn't so swollen and it just expanded, ooh, bon appetit, oh yeah, there's something about all this that never stops, you know, that's a lot of spaghetti from strange looking, okay, yeah, it's all kinds of

food

, look at that, oh yeah, I'm.

I'm not going to eat this because it's definitely disgusting, ok it smells sour like that, oh yeah it's not edible at all, oh boy it's been fantastic so far. I'm not going to try to pull off that pecan pie. Sorry, it's completely stuck there. pecan pie roll They're not telling me, okay, this is a good amount of spaghetti and meat sauce. This is probably one of the best main dishes, it sure beats ham and beans or turkey bread, from what I've heard and talked to the guys. those were the worst, now anyone in the comments wants to tell anyone curious what the ham and beans was called, yes, ham and something else, okay, this is get out of here and let's check out the accessory pack . right, this is the only part I can imagine that will still be good about this, no way I would try a pecan pie roll, the rancidity that just appeared, any kind of status point that tells you it will ruin your tummy, We're literally like you lift your tongue and it will spit out saliva like a spitting cobra.

Then I won't do it again. I'll make you sick, so look, it smells like mint and hydrogenated oils. I love it and you have Mario's, oh yeah. Old school Marlboros cream substitute still feels good. Instant coffee. Perfectly good. Sugar. You can see it well. Get out. In the future. You don't have to like unraveling each leaflet, it's like seeing, it's much easier to use in the field and it smells like mint. I love it, it's just because of the gum in it. Just yeah, nice coincidences when they were so good you could just slide them lightly over the front one and they did the same thing Chiclets oh yeah those Chiclets are going to be really good I know and here's the cool dense interdental stimulator steam cleans teeth right after eating instructions moisten and mouth thoroughly use the pointed end to gently clean between teeth with the flat side next to the gum sorry it's a little hard to read chew the blunt end to separate the fibers then use the toothbrush made in the US, super nice, let's look at that right now because it's cool, okay, so it's Dimmu dente, no, I'm just going to, oh hell, just get in there.

I have a few of these, no big deal, look at this, there are weird little things, they should still have them I think, I mean, most of them though. the guys have their toothbrush anyway they chew on the blunt end and well oh wow it works yeah I just mean it's not like it frays outward like a toothbrush but it probably takes you five minutes to brush your teeth , but oh wow, there's mint mmm, that's good this one. one is like balsa wood or something, very nice paddle, now it's cool on this side, you could use a toothpick, oh yeah, it works well, it looks good, okay, let's make some coffee, I don't know if is it really? eight ounces here, might be a little less than a third of a canteen, where's this United Instant?

Yeah, you know, I need an Instant. I can tell it now just from the way the text is presented. That's always fun. Let's look at this old school instant coffee. How are you? a little cleaner will soften it, yes that's perfect. I love it when cream lasts indefinitely, it has a little nuance to it, the smell, well, nothing a little sugar can fix, yeah, it looks nice and light with a little cream in the mix that's in at least one act classy hmm oh yeah that's better than Taster's Choice let's enjoy a cigarette let's get that cheese smell out of the room it smells so good omg mmm it's like a spearmint smell okay let's turn it around you know, mmm, the giveaway.

I mean you actually got some of that spearmint flavor in the draw mmm I haven't had a serving of marburo in a year oh yeah nice and smooth oh yeah thanks G Schultz for the t-shirt super cool man I open a package from G Schulte Guinea to supply meal kits to MRE and this problematic little Chinese shirt oh yeah, ooh, that's a good hitter too, even with the filter. I'm not sure what year they started putting filters in these cigarettes, but check this out, where they came from. a packet of

food

from my missus might easily turn up at some point oh yes, look at a child Chesterfields, we already know they are good and we have a few more camels, not as fun as the camel or the Chesterfield, look at that, but it has that trademark of Marburg.

And it's very smooth with a little bit of mild coffee, but it's not your thing in the past, you change it for some peaches or a sponge cake which is always good. One thing you can count on with an old MCI is smoke which I don't. I don't smoke cigarettes, but when I do for at least 45 years, some of that is said, check that it includes plastic, oh yeah, look at this well, it's not difficult, not brutally, it's good, mmm, refresh that palate afterwards about having a good cup of coffee and a Smoke, chew gum, maybe then brush your teeth.

This is the food. Fight
