LET'S GET THIS OUT ONTO A TRAY, NICE™
NICE HISS™
I'LL BE COMING BACK AT YOU WITH SOMETHING NEW OR OLD, ALRIGHT COOL SEE YA™ - Zábava
Anyone else wonder why Steve seems to enjoy every ration more than you enjoyed any meal you've ever eaten?
This would explain the prison tray.
Bc he is a straight up G
I wonder what Freud would have thought of ration fetishes.
Rof
Tomartyr it's probably his past experience eating ancient rations
The cool thing is 80% of that stuff can be bought in Croatian or Slovenian stores (and other Balkan countries, of course). Podravka is a huge company and they make great foodstuffs!
And the other 20%?
I live in Bosnia, funnily enough. And even here Podravka is more or less a Gold Standard, next to Gavrilovic.
That podravka gulaš and the pate is in every supermarket in Switzerland
I live in sweden and some things as a bosnian is standard. Vegeta and Juha is a must. It's a staple really
I saw the beef goulash in italy
As Croatian I am really proud that you liked our MRE. Idk about other countries, but every single product you tasted is available for purchase in local stores. Made by same companies, with same quality just packaging is different. Kavabon is my favorite too :)
Yeah im Croatian too and I remeber kavabon used to be hard candy
The fact that they use common available foodstuffs instead of specially prepared and overfortified military meals (that often taste downright nasty), has got to be a source of comfort and a morale booster for Croatia's Forces. Familiar foods they would eat in their homes and not mystery meats and dishes.
Everything in the US MRE tastes like they dumped a whole bottle of One-A-Day Vitamins and Minerals into every course. Way more vitamins than even a soldier in combat needs.
Lets Go Hrvatska! 🇭🇷
Croatia seems like such a charming little nation. I'd love to visit all around the Balkan peninsula in my future, but especially around there.
you end up in our newspaper yesterday.I'm glad you like it Podravka & Kraš companies are true quality recognized all over Europe ;)
Got a link?
The reason it's all so great is because most of it wasn't made specifically for MREs. The goulash and the narezak, for example, you can just buy in stores. And yeah, if that's a Kraš chocolate, you know that's top notch.
Kandit chocolate is just as good too
čokolada je od Zvečeva.
@@cherchil kraš better
@@cherchil not even close to be honest
@@kinazura590 Ne znam meni je odlicna i kandit iskreno, kras jeste bolji tho
BTW, that was the best "let's get this onto a tray...nice" so far (the cow). I laughed and woke my wife up...got in trouble. Totally worth it.
Thanks for that
Let's get this out onto a tray ... MOO!
Me too - laughed out loud.
RC Gusto iis
Nice
As a former American Soldier, I can say that I am definitely a little jealous of that ration.
Ive watched a lot of these MRE vids and am surprised to find that what you would assume would be some 3rd world crap rations from certain countries turn out to be far and away better than what most US soldiers get.
Im a croat, i dont find my self living in a 3rd wolrd crap country...Also im a soldier, and im a navy cook/cls, i fed some americans that came on my boat for various NATO practice runs.
EVERY single american was amazaed by our food, i kid you not, they come back with a cleaned plate looking can they get some more, any dish we make.
Very nice people i must add, pleasure working with them.
once a soldier always a soldier
lifelessdead89 That's the Marines, not Army Soldiers.
either way, i meant it with good intentions. i come from a military family.
"Now let's get this out onto a tray.
Nice."
Makes me laugh every time!
Nice.
same it gets me everything always puts a smile on my face
"Hm. No hiss..."
same, hahaha, that cut in the video XD

Well Podravka is still one of the best Factory in the Europe (Civil and Military use).
In the Europe? Butch ering the English language is all you butcher lol

@@parimabartender Get outta here man, the only thing you're butchering is your manhood and dignity
We call 'em "Rambo keks" cuz they were packed in camo themed packaging during the war. Back then they were so dry you could start a fire with them.
kek
R a m b o k e k s
Nah, these are not looking as those from war days. They've changed biscuits. It wasn't just camo packaging that were "ramboish", you could use those as weapon if needed. They had texture of bathroom tiles.
some interesting info for you steve, btw thanks for reviewing our countries rations. All the products in the croatian ratpack are local products sold in the supermarket, especially the pate and gulaš made by podravka. the powdered drinks are called cedevita, very popular vitamin drink.
Si siguran da je cedevita po njegovom opisu zvuci kao neki sirup za razrjedit ali u prahu
nego sta, cedevita ili neka imitacija
Mislim da je cedevita, ali je covjek stavio toplu vodu nutra...
To je Lero Vita od Podravke. Čak je bilo razmirica između podravke i cedevite zbog tog pakiranja od 15 grama kojeg je podravka napravila vrlo sličnim onom od cedevite. Al sjebo je kad je stavio vrucu vodu unutra hahah
BlitzkriegRap stavio je hladnu vodu za prvi put i toplu za drugi.

i wonder how is he still alive considering eating ww2 mres

I enjoy your videos everytime! they are relaxing to me and its interesting to see whats inside a military ration
Pls keep making these videos :)
I agree. The way Steve explains everything and gives more backstory, it takes you on a journey as he test the packs out.
Yeah, I agree. They are strangely relaxing. Your voice is soothing lol. No homo
I always find the whispering in ASMR videos to be really weird.
There are tons of asmr videos without whispering!
PiratmitHolzbein I also find the videos so relaxing. You should look into ASMR. Tutorials and softly spoken videos like this with unpacking or cooking always set me off and I almost knock out. Helps when you're tired also.
Croatian MREs are just as good as their camouflage it appears. I love it.
Loving these videos. Your enthusiasm really gets us excited.
This ration definitely seems like it is made for an adult unlike MREs which always seem to be based on elementary school cafeteria food.
Great review.
More processed. Last longer in storage. MREs have to reach higher and more mobile defense area. From Iraq, to Nigeria and so on.
Candy for breakfast. Because as an adult, you can.
@@corettaha7855now THAT is freedom!
Is this supposed to be sarcasm?
@@whysix3417
I don't know. MREs do remind me of school lunches.
Crystallized honey is just fine. In fact, it indicates that it's not artificial and is of a good quality.
Yes, and very often has a finer and more pronounced flavour!
im Croatian and it means a lot to hera that our mre is that good to a man who has tried sooo many, thanks man
cool mate
That liver pate we in croatia have for breakfast so soliders had it too
Love these. Also hearing, "Let's get this out onto a tray. Nice." in every video is something to look forward to. Consistency is a good thing.
These non-expired MREs make for the best videos in my opinion. Plus, you seem to enjoy the hell out of them, win/win.
this all what you eat is 100% natural!!
80% this stuff is of podravka ..firm of my city
Uvijek sa srcem
RinMa RasPe covjece naj si ;)

Those coffee candies looked so good I went looking for some on Amazon they were all sold out but found some very similar. I love coffee and candy so yum!

Look at that cow, he's saying lets get that out onto a tray. Nice!
Glad you got your hands on one of those Croatian MREs. Salute from Croatia :D
Yay Steve replied, I will check them out ASAP. Oh boy I have another 4 videos of yours to watch.
Greetings from Cold Croatia :l
When it comes to military rations, Steve can read and translate every language in the whole world !
"85 gram pack of keks" has become one of my favorite reaction videos
Kakva reklama za Podravku jaoooo:D
nisu ni svjesni koja :)
Još kaže jedan od najboljih obroka ikad :)
da cuda radimo za njih jel tak.... ;) to zavrijedjuje i neku nagradu od Podravke hahahaha..;)
Damir Filipovic to da hahah
Bok Fila!
The biscuits are in a little support box! That is _cute_ !
Thank you Steve. For keeping the past alive and helping us to better understand what we could not be there for and for preserving things so that later generations may understand than as well. So once again thank you.
Most of these items we can get in the international section of Australian supermarkets too. Lots of Croatian origin people here downunder. I have that pate in my pantry!
I asked you if you could do Newer Croatian RATION and you actually did it, Oh man great job, you're best hahahaha keep on with good work
I love the newer ones. I've watched the 2015 russian ration vid like three times
Steve your cool
nice
I am so addicted to this guy....why is this entertaining??? I have watched a ton of these vids now. Has this guy ever had a actual reaction or got sick??? I end up falling to sleep to these every night now.....wth??
You're one of the top reasons why I don't have cable Steve. 👍🏼👍🏼
I swear watching his videos is like an ASMR experience. These reviews always brighten my day.
Keks

PRAISE KEK! This is no accident. Uploading a Kek video on the day of the debate!
Top buttery keks
I love how happy you are in every review. it's contagious.
Man, just the way you describe the food makes me hungry. Keep up the good work, I can't get enough of these videos!
Nice!
This just proves how our Croatia is amazing!!! :3
Oh man I still eat that pate Goulash,Cedevita(the orange drink) and the Kavabons. Greetings from Macedonia!
Podravka RULES among the ex YU countries.
I wish I could find Kavabons in the US.
try to ask gundog ..;)

Even Steve1989 is channelling the meme magic!
What does "keks " mean?
keks or keksi is croatian word for biscuits.
Oh ok. Thank you for that.
kek is lol on a website i care not to mention in public.
Great video as always Steve. Pozdrav iz Hrvatske (greetings from Croatia) !!
I think Steve1989 is the only person on the planet that can say items in ANY mre are 'decadent'! :) love the video, glad I don't have to eat these daily for any length of time.
awesome ration reviews, been watching for months now.
cheers from croatia steve
I've tried all of those and they are really high quality stuff. Greetings from neighbour Bosnian :)
Greetings dear neighbours and friends from Bosnia and Herzegovina!
This one looks extra amazing indeed.
Thanks for the cool videos, Steve!
I enjoy watching these videos and appreciate the time you put into them 👍🏼
Being able to hear him say "Nice!" after he puts it on the tray three times is the best part of the video.
Today is a good day. When you get a notification telling you Steve uploaded another video!
Crystallized honey is fine. Just microwave it and it will return to being liquid. Remember, honey is one of the only foods that don't spoil.
Honey can go bad if it's not stored properly, and if it stays crystalized for too long it can go bad, develop mold and bacteria.
Love these 24 hour ration videos. Every single time I eat a meal I watch your videos. 10/10 content.
So my army eats the expensive stuff from supermarket shelves. Well, at least I know my tax money feeds my military well enough.
As the old saying goes: An army marches on it's stomach.
But take a step back, the US MRE stuff is only produced for their MRE so it is much more Expensive and "Cheap" same times, than the European way take good products from the store and put it together so the soldier in an bad situation(when there is not even a field kitchen) has at least some good minutes.
who makes your music?
He does them himself he's in a band
@@fearlessace6029 what's the name of the band?
To be honest, you're the only MRE opener I love to watch. You're pretty entertaining to watch. Keep them coming, definitely won't be disappointed.
I can't stop watching these. The narrating is spot on!
Crystallized honey is still more than edible. My SIL raises bees, so I am also knowledgeable, whether I want to be or not. If you warm it up a bit, it will smooth right out. I prefer honey to sugar whenever I can. NICE.
thanks for keeping up with the videos. I love watching them every time I eat. keep it up
STEVE!!! please, please, please keep these videos coming! Top notch work as always!
this looks delicious, i love that liver paté, you can pretty much get that from any store too, its amazing on any form of hot bread, spreading it on there so it gets slightly lukewarm
The old MRE's are fun to watch, but I find these one's are better, you actually get to try everything the way it's intended.
I love the meals that have Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner components. Your videos are very informative. Keep up the great videos.
Its nice to see you have such a good time with your food.
Well, Steve, the thing with honey is that if it's crystallized, it's probably real honey. If it's liquid and golden and perfect, it's likely mostly glucose. If it's real honey, it essentially lasts forever. They found some honey in Egyptian tumbs that was perfect. The only reason they don't include it in more rations is probably how sticky and annoying it is to clean. To fix crystallized honey, just warm it up for a bit.
It didn't crystalize because it was a fresh ration, he literally said it taste "botanical" which is what real honey is supposed to taste like.
That looks like a really tasty ration, out of all the others I've seen this would have to be my first pick.
I just love watching you opening what is essentially a food time capsule. Do you do your own editing if so your awesome at it. I am so addicted to watching these Steve. From how you critique the food, to eating some ranks stuff and it's really cool what your doing. We should never forget about the sacrifices the worlds military's make for freedom. Keep it up steve your voice is so calming to me. Lol (hope that didn't come off weird sounding. You should do camping trips and like live off M.R.E.S while spending a night or two in the woods to offer viewers the full effect of what it's like to be in the military. Take care! over and out.
The way you describe every item is the best part. Subbed!
The brand regarding most of these is quite well known throughout Europe, even in the commercial sector.
"This is one of the best military rations I have ever had" You must love them because you say this all the time hehe
Im addicted to everything about these videos i have never been interested in anything like this MRE stuff but this mans voice hypnotizes me
Every single time you say 'Lets get this on a tray' I say 'Nice!' right along with ya. :)
Great videos as usual, thanks for sharing Steve!
Even blind and deaf men could enjoy your videos
Sludge they can feel Steve’s sprit from a kilometre away
Most of the stuff in the pack (cans, honey, kavabon etc.) is commercially available in the same form in almost every supermarket in Croatia and other countries in region. They didn't cut corners by putting cheaper or lower quality items in this pack.
It's insane how you make your music and how they fit so well!
Thanks Steve you just made my day being I had to work this Saturday! I'm going to start eating on a tray!!
Hey Steve. In my country you can still buy that beef goulash and med (honey) from the exact factory that produces it.
take list from package, and go to local store who have food from Croatia
everything from pack you can buy in any store, its regular food
No other mre review channel comes close to steve1989! You are the best in the biz!
your voice is so relaxing. I love watching your videos at night. Very interesting and insightful
always make me feel hungry when i watch your videos daaam
Jesus Christ Steve, so many videos in a single day.
A good surprise to get when logging in tho.
Its refreshing to see you eat rations that look and taste like they are supposed to when you open them up. It's nice to see you not gagging on old cheese for once. I'm glad you enjoyed this one!
You do your own music: NICE!
I love the intro music and it’s one of the first things I noticed about your vids. Besides the wonderful content otherwise.
many of these countries that you assume would have shit rations actually feed their people very well.
An army runs on it's stomach; feed your troops shit, they'll fight like shit. Even "Eastern Bloc" countries know this.
Good ol american propaganda
Yeah if you look at our airforce (using Mig 21 bis) you would asume we eat cockroaches and other bugs but all the stuff in the mre you can get in any store
Wickedashtray so you assume Croatia feeds their people like shit?... What a stupid assumption
actually we eat top quality food, 100X better than usa crap
Im croatian and im glad u like it :D
Im Solo ima nas , :D
These modern MRE reviews always make me so hungry. Love em
Steve you have such a great positive attitude. I could for sure learn something from you.
What was the cow going to say? I NEED TO KNOW
He said "let's get this out on a tray"
"Nice."
Hahah I bet that edit was on purpose.
he literally said right in the video but whatever.
"My spirit will haunt you for all eternity for eating me."
I am a High School American History Teacher and my students and I LOVE your videos! We now say "nice" about everything. Thank you for showing some awesome History!
Looks good and tasty ! ! !
Thank you for your review and videos
Always interesting to see what you come up with ! ! !
Your videos always make me hungry! Nice!
Its so good to hear good things about food coming from the country where I live!😂😄
super hrana iz super drzave :)))

The Croatians give you three packages of KEKS. Very nice.
Mr.Steve i love watching your videos. These are great!
I don't know what it is but I find something so relaxing about watching these videos before I go to sleep.
