- This special Passover variant of the IDF's 4 person 24 hour ration could be utilized many different ways, and in this case a small stove top & skillet are used for improvised cooking, along with a rolling pin.
Featuring Matzah Bread as the special guest of sorts. A staple for Passover and always used by the IDF with these special rations.
This was filmed a little while back and I'm happy to finally get it out there because it was a really fun review. There are quite a few more gems like this one buried away.
Hope you enjoy it and see you in the next few days, I'm currently finishing up a Canadian IMP from 2006 and a double feature PLA ration review. Alright cool, see ya. -steve

I know he gets the translations through someone else but it's funnier to imagine Steve being fluent in all human languages
it's his superpower don'tcha know? Steve *can* read any human language, as long as it's printed on some form of ration.
Actually, it's just one language. He speaks ration. XD
When Steve consumes an MRE he gains all of that nationality's knowledge.
@@JFISCH93 this is the only explanation, really
@@adepressedcatwithabadnicot246 it's a handy superpower
I'm convinced that Steve treats MREs like wine. The older the better.
No longer should they be referred to as manufacture dates... they are now vintages.
Especially when he talks about cigarettes and coffee that hasn’t been subject to dry mold
@@11amasuperboy now that's a comment
Aged like fine milk.
Remember the old hard tack from the civil war he ate? That wasn't just vintage, it was antique.
They literally just cleared out someone's pantry and called it an mre. 💀
To be fair, that's probably exactly what happened
Notice that 90% of the comments are something wholesome about Steve. Man really is the Mr. Rogers of Rations.
I don't think there's anyone on the planet who doesn't like Steve.
@@Grayfox988 Whomever in Natick that invented the four fingers of death might have a different opinion 😅
You don't troll or insult a dude who eats random old shit for a living, odds are you're next on the menu.
IDF: “Rations are EXPENSIVE. Do NOT open in vain!”
The ration: [Several cans of grocery store tuna]
Dont forget to source your own bread! 😆
Yeah, the army here is kind of a joke really, they only SOMEWHAT take the airforce seriously, and by that i mean the pilots, everyone else gets shit. And the salary matches really (third of minimal wage for combat troops, as low as one sixth for others). Oh, and btw, that's not just ANY supermarket tuna, its the CHEAPEST tuna (and most other cans)
very fitting of a Jewish military to be honest
@@mkzhero The dented ones wasn't from the storage of the cans, they specifically bought the dented ones because of the discount.
oy vey!
Everybody already knows you’re a legend, but reviewing a ration with a damn tuna candle burning on the tray is next level.
You suppose to put the toilet paper all over the tuna not just a small piece to fry it lol
@@yakovkratzberg802 I was going to say the same. Take two squares and double them up, then lay them flat on the tuna and light.
I kept expecting the smoke alarm to go off! LOL Great. I love Steve's videos.
@@Capt620 the real life lessons are always in the comment section!!
"It's getting dark at the table sir. Shall I light the can of tuna?" Seriously, amazing mood lighting for the rest of your meal!
I was sleeping to a Steve playlist, and woke up just as he said "lots of bread, chocolate spread" and for hours now it's been all I can think about.
Nice
I love the imagery of Steve calmly reviewing the food as his tuna can burns in a big flame
These Israeli rations are just like taking a look at what you got left in the pantry when it's time to stock up.
Hahaha! The stuff that nobody wants to eat.
@@akcorbel a weird mix of clashing flavors with an overabundance of cheap canned fish
I thought that too, like who would go to the grocery store and buy 1 can of corn, 1 can of peanuts, 1 can of olives, and tuna. 🤢
Steve made the best of it though.
Reminds me of my old tuna way, way in the back of the empty pantry shelf.😃Just without the big can of pineapple.🤥
Truth! 🤣
Steve: ignores a 5 year old can of tuna salad because of concern for health problems
Also Steve: eats 100+ year old pork
with Rust powder included
That Boer War-era ration still gives me nausea.
Yes ignoring a can because of an air pocket is totally irrational I agree with you guys on this one, 😒 wait no I don't believe it or not that can of tuna salad was likely rancid, and pending on the conditions of storage anything in a can can last for quite some time, 😒 although in this case the item was likely stored in very substandard conditions
@@louishavens7849 it's just funny how he'll skip that due to possibly being rancid but will eat dried out meat with rust contamination. That being said either way I wouldn't want him to risk his life or health over something that dumb
as someone who had to eat that disgusting tuna salad he made the right choice for his health even if it wasn't rancid
Of all the years I've watched steve's videos, this might be the most interactive he's been in cooking these MREs. Not gonna lie, mixing all those was getting sketchy, but its a relief when you yourself approved of the fishcake steve. Good stuff!!!
Big props to the soldier who figured out that trick to "smoke" the can of tuna. I bet that would also make a handy fire starter!
Steve is one of the few content creators that whenever I see a new upload I get genuinely excited. They're like rare delicacies that we only get every once in a while and that's perfectly ok
Perfectly stated!
Not pandering to the algorithm
"OOO! Steve uploaded! *click*"
Absolutely! I literally became a Patreon because my excitement got to me 😆
Whole heartedly agree
Steve man, I have to say. I have struggled with bouts of insomnia most of my life, and nothing ever really helped. But when I put on one of your videos it almost always puts me to sleep, in a good way of course. Like some sort of MRE lullaby or something. lol. It's helped me out a ton, so thanks for that.
Right on man thank you. Knowing these videos can help some folks get some better sleep... one of the most gratifying parts about doing this! Alright cool, see ya
Steve is basically the bob ross of MRE’s
I use your vids for interest and to help with my anxiety/panic attacks that I have. Your calming demeanor really helps and I thank you for that. Just wanted to let you know a fan appreciates what you do here. Happy Easter to you.
you just accepted an insult as a back-handed compliment @@Steve1989MRE well done on turning that one around.
@@Steve1989MRE I know it sounds like a bit of an insult but you, Ian from forgotten weapons and Cody’s lap are reasonable for some of my best nights sleep.
Ive said this before steve, but Ill say it again. In the many years ive been watching you, your videos have some kind of magical migraine healing power for me. Anytime I feel like shit or my head is killing I throw on your video and just listen to the audio and within 20 minutes I feel better. Thank you steve
"Battle rations cost a lot of money, do not open in vain."
Yes this is definitely an Israeli MRE.
Despite their entire military being funded by American tax payers against their wills
Wooden door , lol.

Steve, I gotta say you did great with those fish cakes. The whole improv cooking segment was so cool (and also adorable).
He was so proud 😍
Little known fact, the can opening scenes where Steve uses the traditional military style can openers, are slowed down so the viewer can see him doing it, not sped up to save time.
P38- the actual nomenclature of the can opener.
Otherwise the human eye cannot keep up with his movements - it's a secret technique of his clan that was passed down for 5000 years.

Did jew know that hebrew's his own coffee?
These are used today by all combat units in the military during training and are most commonly served with simple white bread. Tier 1 units have American styled MRES for missions that are out of state. The absolute best sandwich was the tuna with beans and sauce on top with the peanuts for crunch and saltiness as especially towards the bottom of the can they are extremely salty. If no bread empty 1 can of tuna into half a can of corn with peanuts, next best thing. Also olives on the side are 10/10 and next time like the others said, fold 2 squares of tp and cover the can, let it burn for 20 min maybe more until it puts itself out.
What happened to the Kosher Spam (Loof) though?
@@HBC101TVStudios Production ceased because of very low demand, basically only the IDF were purchasing it and the producer was selling it at loss rates. After a price increase, the IDF stopped procuring it entirely. Essentially, combat rations are rarely required and rarely used due to the availability of field kitchens (which would usually drop a hot meal from fresh ingredients to where troops are stationed), and was more perishable compared to the rest of the ingredients. As an IAF reservist I've only eaten a combat ration once (in 3 years of service and 9 years of reserve service) in the shooting range during basic training (and only because it was off base, where we had a mess hall) and for us it was a nice change of pace compared to the same monotone food served in mess (especially what was endearingly called "choke cake"). During active combat there would also be donations from civilians of food and amenities to be delivered to the troops and often deployed in gathering areas for troops cycling out of combat.
It's good to see the P38 opener is still in service 80 years after it was invented.
Alright it’s official, we need a “cooking with Steve” series, that was some entertaining stuff right there
There's some other great episodes where he gets to use stoves! Italian ration is one I remember.
You would probably settle for looking at Steve naked
The MRE Gourmet Chef
He also did a dehydrated thanksgiving meal a couple years ago.
I've never seen a flaming can of tuna before.😄 You always show us something new Steve, TY.
And Steve must not have a smoke detector. 😉
Its a food, it's a campstove! Totally unexpected yet awesome.
I couldn't believe it worked! I thought he was just going to end up with paper towel ash all over his tuna.
He didn't do it right though. You gotta put a number of layers of TP down flat on the can and light a corner on fire, then DON'T put the flame out and you can smoked crunchy tuna
@@altalena9139 interesting🤔 I usually avoid the tuna in the rations i eat, just because I don't like tuna that much, but that sounds really good.
Only Steve can make the most hardcore camping food look more appetizing than a 3-star meal. Love these vids!
What I really enjoy is the depth of knowledge that Steve has about these rations!!! It's obvious he does a good deal of research!!
That's it. He's officially evolved into a cooking show. The new era begins!
Yep, i dont remeber cooking in my duty such good 😂
Laughs, and begins the incantation in the glowing light of the ORB.
“Believe it or not” I absolutely believe the corn was highly desirable in a cardboard box filled with canned fish.
Actually, from experience; everyone looked forward to the fruit cocktail the most. Everything else was just fuel to keep your body running.
"Battle rations are expensive" hahaha! Not!
@@chester8420 yea, thats one of the cheapest looking rations ive seen. Legit just a cardboard box with canned food.
@@troyscribner4342 Well, it's not an individual combat ration. The IDF doesn't spend any significant time outside their own borders. When they do, they're usually deployed with the UN, or US military; and have access to standard MREs.
@@troyscribner4342 Well, the demographic that makes up most of Israel isn't well known for being loose with their money.
Everytime I get depressed or really annoyed with people, I watch Steve's videos and it makes me feel better. It's like magic you can't watch this and not smile. Thanks Steve!
I always watch these when I’m starving and everything looks so good
Man this ration looks like the most "design by committee" ration ever. The items are bulky, heavy, and don't go together really. No beverage, no retort, no heating element, no easy snackable on the go item besides the peanuts. Looks like a ration 40 years behind the times.
I willing to say it looks like one of those WWII box rations.
Yeah, plus a lot of trash to handle. My only guess why they took this approach is that Israel is a small country so it's not as big of an issue, unlike countries that travel thousands of miles.
A real letdown for any soldier out on the field.
It's a real morale killer if you got that all the time.
When you win wars so fast and decisive, you need a way to make sure soldiers are busy with something. So you design a ration in a way that they can cook.
Cooking with Steve needs to be a thing.

"Alright let's get this out onto a tray."
I'm now convinced we NEED to see a day in the life of Steve video. I must know what this man eats/cooks on his regular days.
MREs...
I think he's into or has a ju jitsu or karate gym. I Google a address I seen he had and was a martial arts gym in Florida. Makes sense he seem like one them quiet nice guys but is a beast fighting
we need one ASAP
@@patricklaurojr7427 he's also jacked, so that wouldn't surprise me
I'm thinking that this IS one of Steve's 'normal' days!
I know it's all about the food you like and were 'brought up' on but I don't think I could really get into that ration. I'm thinking that I'm not alone. I think the warning about waste is because folks would open the box and just raid it for the better stuff!
Ya'll Take Care and be safe, John
There's just something about a tuna table candle that brightens and brings class to even a simple meal.
I bet his room smells FABULOUS now
i know it smell crazy in there
I love your videos! The music, presentation, photos of soldiers- you choreograph your video really well.
This Israeli ration honestly looked pretty good! I’d order all of that in a restaurant!
The Boer War era ration find was damn good!

A toast to Steve! One of the bravest men I've ever seen!
His gastronomic bravery and his encyclopedic knowledge of military history are legendary. I'm warmed, enlightened, and educated by his videos.
Steve, in the food containers of life, may you always find the "good hiss".
Keep making content, brother... I'll be here watching.
the wholesomeness of steve cannot be explained by mere words, you have to witness the Steve for yourself
@Paul Thiessen He's too pure for anything to harm him.
The Steve lol
I like the way you think and express yourself verbally lol
The chill level radiating off this man is like a magic spell. It just makes my brain go quiet.
He is the Bob Ross of MREs
The Israeli rations always look like they sent someone to the canned aisle in the grocery store and called it a day.
Must of got a good deal on tuna
And that they put absolutely NO thought into their choices besides calories and price.
u wouldnt want a week on these rations... explains how they motivated their troops to finish a war in days.... gd strat
They buy over runs from canned goods makers.
@@chemistryofquestionablequa6252 At the risk of perpetuating stereotypes here;
That would be quite fitting for a Jewish nation...
Why is this content so compelling!? I love it and the Steve!
Definitely a more chaotic scene than any other of his reviews. I can just imagine the reaction of the average person who has no idea what is going on here seeing Steve eat essentially the Israeli ration version of Nutella on a cracker as a can of tuna has been turned into a fireball in the corner of his tray. Lmao
Love how Steve has NEVER changed his videos style always showing pictures of the soldier who would/would’ve been eating these rations first . Gets each meal ready and you gotta love the hiss test! Nice!
Steve is a true American institution!!!
One of the greatest humans to have ever existed!!!
Tip. If you just put a hole in the top of the tuna and poke a wick through, you can use it as a candle or cooking source for other foods at the same time. It's an edible multitool!
I bet that Steve1989 would be able to get this working even if the tuna was canned in brine.
You see burning hundreds of valuable calories
To be honest , this channel is very relaxing!
Steve's voice in this swirling world is like a lullaby.
Only problem is that I get hungry while watching.
We did the same napkin tuna candle thing, however we just put the napkin flat on top of tuna, it gave more smoky flavor and warmed it during winter.
Only with Steve are we treated to the word 'decadence" associated with anything in an MRE. Great work sir. Thank you for your passion.
Anyone who has done hard labor, humped it all day, be it civilian or military knows that decadence is having ANY food in front of you when you're starving.
The Israeli MRE is not very good. A bunch of stuff in cans.
I've never seen anything kosher for passover be described as decadent
I'm so confused, in every other context "decadent" has a bad meaning, "decaying", but when it's about food it means it's good? .-.
After 7 years dude is still standing upright with one hand holding the tray while eating with the other.
If something works don't fix it, right? 😅
Did he serve in the military? It might be so ingrained into him because of that, and also part of his online personality's gimmick. Like his brand is "standing upright with one hand holding the tray while eating with the other", and I'm glad it's working for him!
@Lex Bright Raven Ah, a Marine in Okinawa, probably.
The way steve improvise a bland ration into something entertaining is impressive
Glad to see you uploading and doing well, legend!
The "tuna candle" reminds me of a trick i learned in the 80s with old cans of C ration peanut butter. I used the peanut oil as a lamp and the whole house smell awesome.
@@Danimal4321 if the peanut butter doesn't have stabilizers, the oil will naturally separate out over long storage.
@@Danimal4321 probably had just separated out a lot of excess oils, as ration PB would probably just sit in a warehouse for a few years
@@Danimal4321, you would have to get the organic/unprocessed peanut butter to do so. Most brands of store bought peanut butters have emulsification agents added to prevent fat separation
I would guess this would make your tank smell fascinating.
@@xm-5178 or you just buy the cheap peanut butter from the discount Walmart type stores that are mostly oil anyway and tend to separate after sitting on the shelf for a week..
I would watch a youtube channel where Steve gradually learns to cook more and more gourmet meals with ingredients sourced from rations.
You could add water to the beans, add in some tuna, thicken it up with some matzo crumbs to make a soup, with salt and pepper.
I love how improvisee thhis was! ty!
What a peculiar MRE .... Great review from Steve as always
I left the IDF back in 2015. Glad to see our MREs kept the tradition of not changing since the fucking 60s.
Also for the tuna burning - you need to take a couple sheets of TP and just lay them on the open can, so that the sheet is soaked in oil but the edges are still dry. You then light the edges and let the entire TP burn until the fire dies. If done correctly all the surface area should burn so when you take off the TP the entire top is almost fried to a golden brown color. I ate so much of that crap over 3 years I didn't touch canned tuna for a couple of years after.
They changed circa 2010-2011 with meat loaves (luf) being replaced with tune.
I never even bothered with the smoked tuna, I couldn’t stand oily sand all over everything
Did you enjoy being a war criminal in service to the Zionist occupation or have you grown a conscience since?
Steve did that in an earlier video. Check back in his list.
Free Palestine
A lot of folks wouldn’t think about eating tuna for breakfast but when I was in Pierrot Rico I had tuna and oil not water and thinly sliced onions on these type of crackers it was amazing got it every morning
I often have tinned mackerel on toast for breakfast. Great way to start the day.
I totally agree. It's so much better packed in oil than water! There's just more flavor
Isn't Smoked Tuna the SS code name K Harris?
A can of bumblebee and a pint of water to start the day is one of my favorite kickstarts :)
Sometimes a cup of coffee if I'm feeling extra sexy
Pierrot Rico? Or Puerto Rico?

Excellent COTS military meal set. Thanks for showing us it.
I always get so hungry watching these videos
Thank you Steve. I look forward to your CZcams uploads more than anyone else's. I don't know why, but they keep me leveled and sane. The true Bob Ross of mre's. Please don't hesitate to continue.
That’s a great analogy lmao 😂
At this point we have to worry if he's sampled every available mre there is.
@@RiotKurhein the levels of poisoning that everyday people are exposed to are shocking. Needless to say mre's are inherently healthier because the ingredient and nutrition facts are more accurate.
"True Bob Ross of MREs" is an excellent description of Steve. Kind of bummed me out after I watched and liked all of his videos, that I don't have any more to go through. He is one of my top 3 CZcamsrs, my moment of Zen.
Steve1989 has little reason to upload more videos because he is already a millionaire, I have read.
I like how Steve basically made prison food for lunch. Crushed up crackers, packed tuna, peanut "butter", some other random stuff - if he had just put it in a plastic bag with a little boiling water instead of pan-frying it would just be a spread instead of fishcakes. Good ingenuity there.

@@HunterTeddy010 well done

the best mre review channel to watch.
The "tangy" thing in the tuna is called botulism 😂
Steve is immune to botulinum bacteria
I'd definitely like to see more of these little recipe experiments, especially if it's stuff that soldiers would actually do. Military cuisine like that is super cool, when everything is miserable around them people still find a way to at least spice up their meals and have some fun. There's just something so beautifully human about that...ignoring all the death and stuff.
Well, sorry to say but this is DEFINITELY not stuff soldiers would do, i served in the IDF, no one ever has cooking pans, let alone burners when they're given these 'MRE's, there's pretty much never field kitchens either outside of actual war and big conflicts (which is not usually the case) heck, you're lucky if you get to wash your hands every time you eat these. Not to mention you'd probably not always will be given the time. The one thing people actually really do is the toilet paper grilling trick. Its really sad to hear Steve not say how sad these are like in his last review of our 'MRE'S, especially for hot weather when you're already drinking and sweating so much. Also the fact you already where sick of tuna back at base. Also how pathetic the mention of 'MRE's are pricy to make' when its the cheapest supermarket cans you can get in a supermarket, ducktaped into a cardboard box, and that's being said to soldiers that are ALL FORCED to serve 3 years, getting one third of MINIMAL wage if they're in combat roles, and a SIXTH of minimal wage in support and administrative. The contractors tho (those who stay past 3 years) get paid well. You are fed like cannon fodder, you are supplied like cannon fodder, you're treated like cannon fodder, you're paid like cannon fodder, you ARE cannon fodder, you have no choice about it, you're not even really allowed to really shoot in self defence and if you do, you'll definitely go to jail in 60-80% of the cases, and its all overall really depressing. lucky they at least don't often USE living soldiers for much and there weren't any actual wars for long, usually just aviation and tanks...
Similarly, people do some very bizarre but ingenious things with foods bought in prison commissary. I was party to the communal "gumbo" many a night in county and was wowed by the things a talented jailhouse chef can do with Ramen, summer sausage, cheetos etc and no heating methods aside from the hot water out of a sink.
@@HornyIndianMan Yeah it's crazy how well human ingenuity works in almost any situation, even with people who don't have any professional cooking experience.
I know it may seem small, but the fact that Steve specifically drops an IDF ration video on Passover, shows his respect and admiration for other cultures. Hes just such a wholesome dude.
I wish they would respect the foreskins of babies
Agreed
Or he has a brain and knows what people are going to search for.
I didn't even realize that, but you're right.
Wow!
I like this new "Cooking with Steve" formula.
Didn't know this was gonna be a spiritual journey . Love the cookin . Really makes me feel like I'm in trenches in Normandy
Released on the first night of passover. Steve knows what he's doing.
I am convinced that Steve has become the first ever MRE connoisseur
Another video with Steve cooking, can't get any better
"the manot krav is a difficult ration to find," but you can replicate it from a single trip to pretty much any supermarket.
Steve is honestly just a pure soul.
He sure is lol I Google a address he had up and was a martial arts studio in Florida. I can totally see him being into martial arts very quiet pure soul guy but don't want fuck wit him
The IDF seems to have given the term 'Self-heating ration' a whole new meaning.
I can just sit here and watch Steve eat anything
This almost looks like a box of canned goods you get at a homeless shelter
Steve, your channel is endlessly fascinating, from smoking 80 year old cigarettes to smoking Israeli flaming tuna.
Seeing Steve upload a new video always puts a smile on my face. Even if it’s just a box of canned goods, with a little imagination and know how, you got yourself a meal on the tray. Truly a spiritual successor to Bob Ross.
Truly
Another great video Steve! Been a while..miss the hobby!
wow !!!! Man, that's the best "recipe" for our "manot krav" i've seen !!! Greetings from Israel !!!!
You know, I started watching Steve's videos out of curiosity 4 years ago maybe sooner. Now every time a new video of his pops up I make it a thing and watch it on the big screen! It's always a pleasure to see what he reviews next! Alright, Nice! Let's put this on the TV!
rule number one in life. Steve takes time out of his day to grace us with a review , we as mere mortals must watch it as soon as we see the posting.
17:52: My reaction when I find a Steve video I haven't seen yet
Never thought I'll see a review of my country's MRE!
If hieroglyphics were on a MRE Steve would translate.
The MRE Fish Cake was a real treat to watch. Steve is the man!
Unlike American C-Rats or MRE's I'm surprised there wasn't a small bottle of hot sauce. As a Jewish American War Veteran I can tell you, Jews love spicy food, at least my family and friends do.
All American wars are jewish wars. Lmao.
Hillarious review :-D You made my day! :D
Steve: I always practice fire safety in home, especially during filming sessions for my MRE evaluations
Also Steve: Hey guys look what I can do with the oil in this tuna can!
Now it's a Passover ration *and* a Hanukkah ration!
I used to set fire to crisps on a old broken sk8board as a kid screw fire safety.
One could heat the water for one's coffee or tea on this smoked tuna can!
Steve my guy so glad to see you do a Manat Krav Passover special! Very heartwarming and nostalgic. Those used to also have rolled grapevine leaves filled with rice, wish you could try those.
Loved the improvised peanut bread.. The more conventional way to burn the tuna is to lay a few layers of TP flat on the can, so the middle of the square is sunken in oil, then light the corners, I used to throw about 5 1-TP-square-balls in the middle so it would also burn up. Then give it time, it burns until all the oil is out, takes about 15 minutes. At the end you get crunchy, smokey tuna that actually tastes like chicken breast!
The grapevine leaves were great, I wonder why the army dropped those from the MREs.Before the grapevine leaves era, the MREs used to contain canned mystery meat called "Luf" which tasted like it was dipped in dish soap.
@@theoutraged Loof is not a gourmet but damn if you slice it and fry it (with some butter is the best sorry IDF rabbis) it becomes pretty darn nice.
I don't know if they took filled grapevine out or it just isn't included in Passover Kosher packs, but what we used to do with those is cut them in the middle, fill em with tuna and name it "field sushi"! Manot Krav are all about improvising and good imagination lol

@@SemenStainsMountTops "field sushi"..I love it!
@@theoutraged Probably because grapevine leaves would give some people (me included) absolute ATOMIC heartburn.
Watching Steve cook is nice
Who else got recommended this from the algorithm because of currents events going down
Steve, for next time with the tuna, try putting couple of squares of toilet paper covering the tuna completely and let it soak the oil. If you light it like that, it covers all of the tuna for an even cook. Ends up tasting like chicken! Was a nice morale boost making hot food on cold nights, as well as adding menu variation. Regarding drinks, we’d have plenty of water and sweet drinks that would be provided from base, along with fresh fruit (pears, peaches, apples) and vegetables (cucumber and tomatoes) with every meal. We’d also be provided multiple loaves of bread with every meal (except on Passover we got matzah).
We’d rarely use these manot krav, aside from training and war time. Even then, we would usually get hot food prepared and sent to us. Often during wartime, many Israeli civilians would even cook trays of food and bring it to us.
What kind of functional army relies upon civilians to bring its own combat soldiers food at their expense during wartime?
@@ephjaymusic Who said they rely on civilians? Besides fr*ck canned food if you can get homecooked food during your service.
@@ihatetrainyards4859 who indeed... I'm not gonna open that can of worms 🤣
@@ephjaymusic a nation with a strong national identity and cohesive vision for the country. This is also the basic formula for fascism so it's kind of dangerous.
@@ephjaymusic we don’t rely on civilians. The civilians are typically family members or friends of the soldiers. Israel is a small country, so it’s not difficult to drive anywhere with food. It’s nothing more than a bonus for soldiers when hot food is brought.
