    Hello Steve, I am a Korean guy enjoying your channel very much. My grandfather participated the Korean war as a student soldier when he was 15 years old in 1952. He has often told me about the war and how tragic it was. Anyway, out of his war episodes, I always fascinated by stories about eating military food or rations supported by the US military. As far as I remember, he mentioned about US military 'C-Ration' saying they were so good compared to the Korean military food. He also told me he actually saved some canned luncheon meats for himself and family for later. Watching your videos, now I finally realized what my grandfather ate during the war and what he said look like. Thank you so much for your interesting video, and I'm going to call my grandfather to say about this today.

    I have a fear of germs, and somehow I love watching people on youtube eat ancient, and extremely questionable food. I guess it's comforting to know that people can do this and somehow survive because it makes my normal life seem relatively safe. Also pretty cool to see something from the Korean War era, my uncle served in the military back then.

    Aged tobacco is in many ways like wine. In the ARMY we would puff a cigar every so often. I took up the cigar "hobby" not long ago. I might have one once every 2 months in the summer. You don't inhale them, you "taste & smell" them as you puff them. I found out people buy hordes of cigars and "age" them for years before they sell them, sometimes 10x the original cost. I have a few I been storing for 2 years.
