A prepper or military guy's estate is what that dumpster looked like. I found a bunch of freeze dried food in one dumpster where I can tell they had been doing a clean out. Looking back I should have grabbed some of it. It was defiantly old, but still good if I had to guess

We have a nose and eyes for a reason. It’s pretty easy to tell if food has gone to the darkside. Look for mold or bugs, weird off putting sights like foaming randomly, and see if it smells like a corpse or metallic. Then the tongue test. Put a bit on your tongue and see if it tastes bad. But yeah avoid field rations. They are basically the military version of a lunchable with about the same shelf life. Lots of stories from combat of poor dudes having to eat those things WAY past safety to not starve to death and getting hella sick. No where near the shelf life of the dry salt lick space food MRE which depending on your stomach can last for like 20+ years stored half decently away from water and extreme temps.
The empty shell casings have to be separate here cannot go in with the other brass great find another good video thank you from a scrapper in central New York
Couple of years ago I tried different MREs from around the world and I got my hands on pretty old stuff too. The biggest bundle was a 35 kg package filled with whole, still sealed and partially opened MREs from the Iran - Iraq war back in 1980. The stuff was produced and packed when I wasn`t even born. It was still edible though, despite of 5% that came in damaged packaging. You will always have a little bit of an offtaste with this highly industrial overworked food after years of storage. But most of this stuff should be edible, if the packaging is still fine. Fun fact: There are collectors out there who will pay some good money on certain old military meals. Maybe you could fetch a couple of bugs. Worst case -> you can enjoy some free food 🙂
All them MRE's will save you money, rather going to the grocery stores, now! Daaaang good find!!!!. Now that being said, more money towards your pickup...
Those brass bullets .. I go to the gun range and just pick the casings up… the most I’ve got at once is about 25 pounds at $2/lb … but I have a smelter I’d love to start making some bricks … but I believe they’d be worth more as the ingots versus just it’s original form
It seemed clear that the dumpster with the MREs was a house clean out for someone who had passed. I've seen those, and performed that clean-out, before. I'm glad the person who came out to talk to you was understanding of your reasons and just wanted to voice their concerns. Thanks for the taste test of the MRE pack. That was a great segment. A new series of tasting vintage snacks, perhaps? Ha!
Great Hustle as Usual Thub. 👀🤔💪🏼. Always Making Something Happen Man. 💰. Doing the Same Thing Down Here in Maryland Buddy. “Bins” are Where the 💰💰💰 is Hiding Brother. 😁. I’ve Never Seen them Meshed Closed with the Grates like that Yellow One before. Seems like there’s Infinite Scrap in Canada man 🤔🤔🤔. Awesome Job Bro. Scrap CZcams Celebrity Thub 👀😁🙏🏼
Not to sound like I have anything against them, I watched the donut media episode about them and they sound great. I’m just surprised how many people are picking them up
Recently had three houses with dumpsters just down the block and was tempted to check em out for scrap or treasure. But as they say don't blank where you eat! Another house just down the street that they were cleaning out after a fire, they found $270,000 cash!
Be careful when eating those. You're not going to be as regular as you may have been. Also 1 of those IMP has about a whole days calories for a regular persons normal day. The tires look good. Have a rad weekend Thub.
That was a lot of fun. You got through a lot of dumpsters and that last one was most interesting. Your description of the flavours was 🤣🤣. I like the new wheels too. 👍
Very nice run! And quite entertaining. As far as the tires go since they are wider and taller I would not be surprised to also find an increased load rating. Something particularly helpful in our pursuits. 🙂 🏴☠.
Man I love dumpsters like the one you found all that spent brass in! So fun when someone cleaned out there garage and threw EVERYTHING into a dumpster. Good scrap treasure + lots of resell potential as well. Found one on Memorial Day that has a MASSIVE 32 inch antique saw blade thrown out along with 15-20 lbs of copper wire scrap.
Take a magnet to those shells. Some appear to be brass but the magnet will pull them out. Especially some of the military cases. Remember that used brass , once fired goes for 50 cents Can in hunting loads, especially since you have the boxes of what they are. Gun auction to dispose is best
All the snacks didn't even have any nutritional information on them.Will be waiting to see you next week! Would have kept the camo pouch, it was really cool. Be safe, Happy Father's Day.
I love your content and your positive attitude. You're absolutely one of my favorite scrappers on YT and I love the weird shit you find and get into...but the last 2 minutes of you eating crunchy food drove me absolutely round the bend. :)
I was gonna be upset if you didn’t take that garbage disposal. I sale them as is to my yard for 15-20 cent per pound. They classify it as small electric motor. Worth a couple bucks
I was an emergency manager. I reached out to an emergency food contractor MRE, who told me that the food will never expire as long as it is sealed. The date is mostly a stock rotation date!
When you say prepared! Do you mean clean light steel with nothing on it other than steel. He in Pennsylvania it doesn't matter if there's some metal with plastic or what ever is on the steel. Obviously not cement. The best is cast iron,brake rotors,drums.
As for your new tires you may have a problem with bigger taller ones, because the area inside the wheel wells is designed to take the travel as you go over a bump....hopefully you dont have the big bang after a railway crossing- I have a Matrix which is the same frame
Hey partner, FYI you could have sold those blunstones for a good price if they were in working condition. You probably won't ever find a pair in the dumpster again, but just a heads up.
I'm always surprised there are so many catalytic converter thefts because when I salvage Cu, it's treated like a pseudo crime. You'd think employees using private property to power trip against scrappers would give everyone so much awe & respect of private property that Noone would dare touch someone's catalytic converter. Is this what happens when we go after low lying fruit?
Latest finds that aren’t scrap: two light floor vacuums, a small 5 gallon aquarium, two can lights (for stage/theater), and a pair of black high-top sneakers that fit me. 😃
Hey Thub, just wondering how you would go about scrapping a refrigerator. What pieces are really worth processing? Is there anything I need to look out for?
Honestly, I don’t. I just don’t have the recovery equipment to collect the refrigerant and I don’t feel like paying to dispose of them. A refrigerator costs money to dispose of, nobody should be taking them as scrap metal for free
Even the compressors in a fridge are not good money to clean copper out of. I did a whole compressor video, those little guys are a really bad hourly rate for what you get
17:56 I'd have nabbed those maxi pads/tampons so fast.... they don't spoil although the adhesive could go bad. Still absorb nasties just fine. (motor oil, anyone) THub stumbled on a survivalist's goodies. Those meal kits often have a 30 year shelf life. Pretty well killproof. Or bomb-proof if you will. Any of the powders are probably safe. .
It was nice to meet you today thub:) happy scrapping!
Oh hi! It sure was, thanks for saying hello and helping me make this channel a success! 👍
If you keep jumping out of bins you will wreck your knees. Climb in climb out. I used to work in trucks and it was good advice given to me.
Let's get him to 100k subscribers guys.!!! He's so close. He's very informative as well!
You need the big boots on again. Stand on a nail or metal shard and there’ll be no more urban gymnastics for a while.
Love your channel.
my brother would love the army stuff, he always spent time outside in his army outfit while I looked at stones or smth

Definitely a prepper or Canadian military. Very interesting.
26:38 Not just Calgary, not even Canada, I see those Broncos everywhere here east coast US
I absolutely loved the mre taste test❤😂😂😂
I *sort of* did too haha!
watching at 1.5x speed, it almost looks like you act as a nervous thief! Hahaha so funny! Thanks for helping the metals get recycled!
That style of wheel really suits your car, good choice 👍
Thanks! 👍
Great score
Glad you tried the MREs. There are many channels dedicated to eating old MREs. Maybe you can link up and send one of those to a channel.

You hit the jackpot
MRE Steve will take a packet of the snacks off you!!
I’ll have to look him up, would be happy to send some over!
@@thubprint what you are to fun and mischievous scrapping Steve is to MREs!

Love seeing you eat all the not MRE's

Very entertaining. Thank you.
I _literally_ said *”You’re an aluminum knob!”* a second before you did! 🤣
lol i laughed hard when i saw this video. thanks thubprint
What a goofball
Footpowder stays good forever.
Awesome funny and interesting. Thank you Thub. ❤️💙
Them last 5mins got me howling 😂😂😂
I would totally try them snacks too!!!
I thought I was the only one scrapping in at vibe
I go to shooting ranges and collect brass, steel and aluminum shell casings.
Good scores. With everything going on long lasting food and brass is good to have….
I enjoyed that taste test!
The stories that must have been in the stuff from the dumpster. Always fun adventuring with you.
Thub you are funny as hell! Keep up the awesome adventuring
Great video
That was such an interesting bin. If that was the 7th one they had I wonder what was in the first 6. 😮 Hopefully you've been safe from the fires! ❤
You could sell the MRE's. They're quite old and probably fetch a good price. MRE's are collectibles.

Those are IMP'S. CANADIAN mre's. They might be still edible long after you're dead
And whomever shall eat them will poop them out long after they TOO are dead
Old expired ration simply cannot be mentioned without a shout to steve1989MREinfo. 30 years old is nothing
@@Trabb86 truly Steve is the Saint of MRE's, may he eat all of history, amen 🙏

For my next video I will show myself running for the bathroom many, many times over the course of a week!!!
😆
Im always so stoked to see a notification when a new video comes out! Keep up the awesome.
No tax benefit to the new broncos - they're just super popular! And yes they are everywhere, everywhere
Not to sound like I have anything against them, I watched the donut media episode about them and they sound great. I’m just surprised how many people are picking them up
Great video 👍
I see you passed on the door knobs. Generally they are brass
Recently had three houses with dumpsters just down the block and was tempted to check em out for scrap or treasure. But as they say don't blank where you eat! Another house just down the street that they were cleaning out after a fire, they found $270,000 cash!
What you found in the box that was all oily, are the shavings from the new pipes. Installed by plumbers or pipefitters.
Be careful when eating those. You're not going to be as regular as you may have been. Also 1 of those IMP has about a whole days calories for a regular persons normal day. The tires look good. Have a rad weekend Thub.
Saw the title and clicked in right away! I love me some brass!!
Well done Drake.
Interesting finds this time!
Thub, you are a brave soul. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you.

That's the roof rack I commented before u might need to mount extra scrap on roof😂
Suggestion: bring a pile of ikea-style totes for all of the loose stuff. They don't take up much space or weight and can fit a _lot_ in them.
Take a magnet to those shells. Some appear to be brass but the magnet will pull them out. Especially some of the military cases. Remember that used brass , once fired goes for 50 cents Can in hunting loads, especially since you have the boxes of what they are. Gun auction to dispose is best

It looks like a prepper passed away.
Now you almost can offroad and dumpster dive at the sametime 😂
Gr8 vid mate
Thank you!
Dude I didn't actually think you would eat the 30 year old field rations. You're braver than I lol. Hopefully you're alright.
Well I was thinking about the meal sets too but thankfully buddy came along and saved me from a real upset tummy haha
I love your content and your positive attitude. You're absolutely one of my favorite scrappers on YT and I love the weird shit you find and get into...but the last 2 minutes of you eating crunchy food drove me absolutely round the bend. :)
😆 thank you for the kind words, and it certainly won’t be a regular occurrence haha
@@thubprint As soon as I saw the MREs I should've been better prepared with the mute button. Lesson learned! :)
Ammunition Brass doesn’t pay as good as regular yellow brass but it’s still well worth taking to the recycling center
I was gonna be upset if you didn’t take that garbage disposal. I sale them as is to my yard for 15-20 cent per pound. They classify it as small electric motor. Worth a couple bucks

Cool video Thub! Pretty interesting finds. 👍
Great vid Thub. Love the new shoes. Hey, I have heard that 4 hose ends equals a pound of clean brass. Would be interesting to find that out.
Hi Thub! :D
Got to weight them bullet casings 👍
When you say prepared! Do you mean clean light steel with nothing on it other than steel. He in Pennsylvania it doesn't matter if there's some metal with plastic or what ever is on the steel. Obviously not cement. The best is cast iron,brake rotors,drums.
Hey we're about to find out if Hershey Squirts happen in Canada 😂😅
As for your new tires you may have a problem with bigger taller ones, because the area inside the wheel wells is designed to take the travel as you go over a bump....hopefully you dont have the big bang after a railway crossing- I have a Matrix which is the same frame
Haven’t had any rubbing yet! That was the reasoning behind the strut spacers though, these tires were always part of the plan
Having dined on CAF rats before, I do believe I would have left them in the dumpster.
Hey partner, FYI you could have sold those blunstones for a good price if they were in working condition. You probably won't ever find a pair in the dumpster again, but just a heads up.
I fear I'll soon see the headline in the Calgary Herald: R.I.P. Professor Thubprint, died of Botulism taste-testing fall-out food.
I’m being careful! 😆
Besides I really doubt something like that would ever make the news haha
Interesting finds
bluestones an australian brand used to be made in tasmania but think now china
Let's scrap the Mazda 😅😅😅

Looks like a preppers hoard
you should have pulled a SteveMRE and got that out onto a tray
I didn’t even know he existed until now 😆
What is helium steel and why did you avoid it?
it weighs nothing
@@wnytrashtrucks is that like wall studs and such?
@@thadofalltrades yes
I just found a 5’ (1.7 meter) piece of solid steel rod, it has to be worth more than scrap. Any ideas on what to do with it, folks?
Latest finds that aren’t scrap: two light floor vacuums, a small 5 gallon aquarium, two can lights (for stage/theater), and a pair of black high-top sneakers that fit me. 😃
Well you know what they say one mans trash is another mans treasure eewww but to each their own I guess.
This one was hilarious to me with the food 😂
I hope you didn't have a vintage diarrhea or something 😂
it's almost like that bin with the MRE's are trying to prep you for a SHTF scenario. and with Fidel Jr. as prime minister, it might be soon

@@thubprint Nice! What are you gonna do with the ammo brass you found? Do scrap yards take it?
You remind me of the Ukrainian guy that tests MRE and gadgets.
😂 might been safer eat brass . All granola stuff I don't buy dollar tree store stuff also tastes like dust .
Id like looking for scrap wood
