  • We open Menu # 12 of the Cold Weather MREs. Join me as we see how freeze dried eggs and sausage taste. We also try Patriotic Cookies, Jalapeño Cheese Spread, Strawberries & Cream Oatmeal, and Chocolate Protein Drink & Coffee. It's one of my TOP 5 MREs, for sure.

    I've had that MCW, and I agree with you. It's REALLY good!
    I always avoided any FD ration with scrambled eggs in it, thinking they would be rubbery, but I ended up trying that menu, and now I'm always looking out for them.
    They are usually the first menus to go when anyone is selling MCW, so I don't get the breakfast ones very often, but I've tried them all and there isn't one that's not great imo.
    Just one tiny suggestion, with the protein drinks, you really have to shake them for at least a minute to get them to mix. They won't mix if you just add water and let them sit.
    Great review again :)

    • @MeAncient
      @MeAncient  Před rokem +2

      Christine, I agree about the shaking. Ace suggested using hot water, shaking vigorously, and then letting it cool for a better blend. TFW, as always.

    Hey guys, happy 2023!! What an impressive breakfast MRE. It's surprising that everything looked so appetizing. Usually, there's at least one component of the MRE, that doesn't measure up, but, this one looks like it all came out great. I don't remember ever seeing you, Me Ancient, use the entire bottle of Tabasco sauce before. A great idea with the soft tortillas. I wasn't hungry, until I watched this! LOL! Great video, looking forward to more, hope the rest of the MRE's, are as good as this one. God bless.

  • @eriklarson2183

    From my experience you have to shake the double H E hockey sticks out of the protein drinks to get them smooth and a little more water always worked best. That and the scramble always required a little more water and to sit for 5 more minutes than what they said. I would lay the scramble packet on top of the tortilla's to heat help them, the cheese on top of the scramble and cover it all with my balaclava to hold in the heat. All hot and worked out great.. My fav breakfast meal. Also the oatmeal was rockstar and I would split the sugar between that and the coffee. Having some sweetness in both worked great. A couple bites of oatmeal and then some sips of coffee both being semi sweet worked out great..

I'd buy all three, but any merch would be awesome, I'd love to be able to represent and support the channel. Another great video, Gentleman.

    Great video, and also that is a nice MRE, would hit the spot in a cold Winter day. Just a suggestion, some guys here put the protein drink in a bottle, even a simple water bottle, and shake it real good, that way you will have a nice smooth drink, this also works with the powdered drinks and some soluble teas you will find in about almost every European MRE - The Portuguese and Spanish ones usually have a nice strong coffee instead of tea.

    I remember the early MREs with the dehydrated meat puck that was impossible to rehydrate properly. It either became meat soup or stayed a puck suitable for throwing at armor. Glad they are making positive strides in dehydration.

      Are you kidding me!?! Terry, I loved the sausage patty. If you left it in the water long enough and placed it on the carburetor of a hot jeep, it was almost like a McDonalds Sausage. almost....I think......I honestly with I had one of those dehydrated old first generation MREs to try. I'd give $50 for one of them. Takes me back......TFW

    had some of the mountain house scrambled eggs with bacon over the weekend. what i learned is for the large / xl egg chunks the 10 minute soak time was not enough. those chunks of egg where finally ready to eat after soaking for a 1/2 hour. the hashbrown chunks you got are more likely in the same boat.

    You’re supposed to use the more spoon or something similar to get down to the bottom of the freeze dried food to mix the water thoroughly. I carry an 11” chopstick with me to make sure I can reach all the way down to the bottom. U. S. Army female vet here.

    I order 5 of the single food packs from Mountain House.... Biggest learning curve is tempering the amount of water in it to rehydrate. So far I have had one of the breakfast items and it was so so as I got too much water in it. It said 8 ozs, prolly cut back to 6 Thanks for the content

      @@MeAncient Can confirm. Mountain House is the same company that makes the MCWs, and their commercial stuff is darn near the same as the MCWs. You don't get the same menus, but mix and match. I use them for backpacking and they're far and away the best.

    I don't know how the military stuff is but, when Mountain House started making freeze dried stuff, they put a 10-year shelf life on it because they had no idea how long it was going to last. As time went on, they tested the things they had put up in the past to see how it was doing and after a few years they increased the shelf life from 10 to 30 years.
