Hey guys, I got these recaps from Jerry. These things have been

frozen

for 15

years

. Okay, they thought about it last week, so let's see how the MREs hold up after 15

years

of being

frozen

. This one here, the spaghetti and the meat

sauce

s in 1986. look, there is no government property, you know, resale is illegal, nothing like that is happening with this, this thing is from 1996, no LOC owes the outside, Trust me, I checked it, it's a 96, okay, maybe a 97, we have

pork

meal with spiedini

sauce

. mein tuna noodles

pork

with

rice

chili barbecue sauce and macaroni omelette with ham is fine, so let's start with pork with

rice

.

I have heard nothing but good things about this Andre. I don't personally remember the last time I tried this on myself. It's been years well let's see how this one holds up after being frozen for 15 years it feels like tootsie rolls like two of them toko drink dough applesauce yeah so it's a sugar free soda from

1993

ah yeah mix of wonderful fruit punch drink and fork with rice and barbecue sauce see the ingredients 8 ounce bag old school first year flameless

ration

warmers were different back then, I'll show you in a second jello crackers nice grapes, but the Tabasco sauce has a great shape, which is a great indicator for the status of the rest and the first year, your normal today really works well, okay, let's get this out on a nice looking tray , so let's get this pork with rice and barbecue sauce and play this portion warmer, hopefully.

The thing is still ope

ration

al, you never know, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, it's like that even with the new ones, but these old ones were always iffy, so we'll see, I don't want to eat a cold meal like dinner. down there, look at this, by the way, old school heaters were totally different, this one looks good many times, I'll filter this weird, cool, like with earth, smells like pepper and the other three are, like you know, out of that. load in part you are like the first one in time this one looks good you need the

food

at the bottom again lift it all down so that it is equal to the heater otherwise it will be as if the light does not turn on, these old men usually took like two for three times more just to eat than I remember as a child.

He was eight years old. I had my first MRE. I didn't even know how to work the heaters. I only ate them cold. I love them anyway. Get to that. line here we go, that should work fine, I can hear it bubbling crackling, I think it's going to work, but who knows, I think it's going to work. Wow, that's working, let's check out the rest of this. That cocoa mix started, yeah, things expanded, oh yeah, things work like old times. You know, I have a feeling that this is a really safe thing. Oh wow, this is really working.

I will be. I wouldn't have thought they would work later. You know, 23 years old looks great, it smells perfect, you can never go wrong with that cocoa, well, sometimes it goes bad, it will smell a little stale and metallic, that's your style for sure, you like it, your brain will tell you, oh my god, no way, right, man? I know you're desperate, you look at your hot chocolate anyway and you go and take a sip and then you'll cover your throat with a strange kind of rancidity, it'll burn you, it's like a metallic burn, sweet and rancid.

I can't explain it so bad, the worst feeling. in the world, well, maybe nothing really works in the world, one of them is fine. Taster's Choice looks good. I always mix it up. If you can make your mocha never go bad, add a little bit of water and real quick, it instantly brings out an aroma right here. It smells funny, it always does, it means it's doing its thing, stir this up real quick, good stuff goes with ginger gum, it looks perfect, classic toilet paper, so that's the side cream, it looks good, let's mix it up with this one case, let's increase the calorie content of that cocoa and make it enjoyable. and just give it a try for its money.

I love these old wet naps. The smell. I can't find any modern wet naps. Does anyone know where to find these things? I mean, they are literally my favorite hand cleaner and read the little thing. here is your wet nap a napkin sighs say that saturated with a cleansing lotion wet nap cleans and refreshes hands and face without soap or water dries automatically in seconds leaves skin soft and smooth open the

pack

age unfold the wet nap and use it is As if I wouldn't be able to figure that out without those instructions, I was incredibly helpful.

I mean, I don't know what I would do with myself otherwise, I don't really take salt, take that side, I don't need these things to be salty enough like they are. I think I have like a thousand

pack

ets of iodized salt, except it seemed like you knew that pork burger and the other

review

s like what was that whole thing about grape jelly and crackers. Look at this, fast, perfect and smells perfect, smells like a fact from 2014. The production smells excellent after the sugar-free drink. I'm not looking forward to it, but I have to try it anyway.

Look at this grape jelly. Look how it looks super fresh. Usually something darkens over time. You know, it looks very good. Jerry. I think your experiment here with freezing this stuff for 15 years literally

preserved

it from thinking that I'm now having one of the freshest vintage MREs on the planet because that gelatin is a Bosco. I mean, we're going to put all the gelatin in this one, you know? can't go wrong, yeah, yeah, bagel, jelly, yeah, gloop, that's a word, now yeah, here we go, I mean, the taste is perfect, how's that nice fresh grape jelly flavor?

Oh yes, perfect, it's in perfect shape, it's got a nice malted barley. The flavor didn't lose any of its flavor or anything over time, which is always fun because these cookies, you know, can sometimes get weird and bleached or slightly risen; It ranges from relatively low scale to just awful, I mean. It can really be one of the worst broken elements of an MRE when it's really broken, so it was a nice change. Look at the sauce, let's see if it is dark or if after 23 years it is still a light color. be the number one proof factor that this thing holds up, but we'll see because this thing is literally 23 years old, day 64 until

1993

, oh my God, look how after 23 years I don't even believe it.

It was done like a couple of years ago at most and it didn't darken at all, so this experiment is amazing. It far exceeded my expectations for how long it stayed frozen for 15 years. Jerry, you are brilliant. I don't know what this is like, look at that perfect, perfectly sweet, then lose me taste, no off flavors, tastes like perfectly normal delicious applesauce, that crazy stuff, it's like frozen in time like Austin Powers when he was in a been cryogenically frozen or like Han Solo. in that weird thing where it's too cold for them because of the way they look, it looks like you had the bathroom, this thing is nice and warm, the heater works perfectly.

You don't understand that this is crazy. I didn't buy the house. this applesauce mmm oh yeah let's try that

military

mocha you know how I like to do it mmm no all the flavors taste perfectly fresh it's always the way I like to do it never change it well so let's try these uh flappers uma tootsie rolls and they are great, so how did the tootsie rolls stay frozen after 15 years? They look perfect 215 I laughed wherever you go to an office building, every other I like is an old candy jar, you know very well, those things that sit there for a whole season and get a little hard, but you know, this one over here look at that, that's crazy, I want to see the proof, look at that perfectly fresh tootsie roll thing, seriously man, this thing is 23 years old, okay let's look at that pork and rice and it looks like the sauce BBQ speeds it up, yes I think freezing it for 15 years is the right thing to do.

This is incredible. I mean, he kept everything, including the famous ration heater, which actually works after several years. It is not weird. Although look, he says things, it's funny, mmm, let's wash that bag real quick. Sigma made day 309 of 1992, let's see he's 24 years old, he's not perfect, oh man, oh yeah, doesn't seem like much, but come on. Look at it on the tray, look at this, it's nice and warm, it's not too hot or anything. Those old ages were not always one hundred percent at any time. I think I ever ate, got one or something really hot, but yeah, look.

It actually looks pretty good, nice, put a nice piece of pork in there, oh yeah, let's take a big bite, now here's a look at the pork mmm, oh my god, I can say this, no It does not need salt or Tabasco to improve its flavor. taste, this is absolutely delicious, it was like a good pork barbecue mmm, a little sweet, the pork is tender hmm, it's a perfect MRE, why did they ever remove it? This is beyond me, it should still be on the menu list hmm, I guess it's eaten day after day. It's gotten old, but I haven't eaten this in over 10 years, what a delight, this thing is 23 years old, frozen for fifteen years, and perfectly

preserved

.

The pork with rice was an excellent main dish. It's a shame they don't. I have more mmm I guess the barbecue flavor is a little cheap but maybe it's like an artificial smoky flavor but that doesn't matter this is really good I'm going to eat it everything goes very well with applesauce those cookies were in perfect condition come on Let's see the sugar-free drink at the end. I'm not a big fan of aspartame, but we'll try it anyway. Fantastic, can't go wrong, yes, pork with rice and barbecue sauce, good enough to eat it all. Can't. wrong, let's try the sugar-free diets that offer the next

food

.

Group I don't know why they did these things why not just have something with a little more sugar. I guess they are allocating the calorie content to other parts of the ration that they still wanted to give you. a little bit of vitamin C and something fruity it smells like fruit punch but it's very strong the third ingredient, aspartame, it's like eating a packet of the same with a bunch of strange and unnatural artificial flavors, super twisted, definitely the unhealthiest part of the whole thing Yes, it's okay, not bad. super strong flavor, it's really sweet, very artificial flavor, so this was a number one menu in 1993, pork with rice and barbecue sauce, probably when the best MRE I've ever had in my life frozen for 15 years, this experiment It was a 100% success in its freshness. and I'm very excited to try these other five that came from the same source.

Thank you very much Jerry for providing them. Thank you all for watching. Stay tuned as I'm going to post one by one living off these things over the next two. days is pretty much what I do with rations anyway but at least now I know it's going to be fresh it's like going back in time thank you guys so much oh strap that gum leaks wet nap or after , Vasko softness, save it either, not bad, this is Steve 1989. out of memory entry, don't worry, I hope you liked the

review

. I'll be back to you with another one of these MREs and a few other things to keep it changed.

Alright, great, see you.
