2020 CCAR 24 Hour Ration of the Future Prototype Review MRE Tasting Test
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 04. 2023
- Check out the most advanced military ration in the world. The Close Combat Assault Ration, or CCAR, takes the infantry carry load down by 10%, being the same size as one MRE, but containing about 2,850 calories, instead of the MRE's 1,300 calorie average. Featuring Vacuum Microwave Dried and Sonic Compressed food that takes a fraction of processing time to make than freeze dried. This ration is aimed to replace the FSR, and with it's highly advanced, palatable, and nutritious components, it is the new shelf stable food.

When the world needed him most, he showed up.
For real though. Best day ever
The man, the myth, the legend.
He got that nice hiss
Lol
video best enjoyed while eating an MRE.
Man waits almost exactly a year and casually drops a double header like usual. Legend.
F***ing legend!
Absolute legend is correct! Man I miss these videos 😅
Damn has it really been that long?
@@Str4yshot Last video was 21st April 2022, so yeah, over a year however you slice it.
Omg you’re alive. I’m happy again to watch your awesome videos.
I am a recovering anorexic. I have no idea how you got me interested in watching food related content, but Steve you are so awesome at what you do that. I love every second of it.
Easygoing food content like this helps my hunger get going, which my ADHD or depression might suppress. I'm glad you find it helpful and approachable.
Steve is a very entertaining guy without needing to have an over the top persona
He’s got the same passion for the vids he makes as an artist does about the work they create; but without any snobby attitude. He’s wholesome
Watching paint dry with Steve would be a good time
Good luck! Pretty sure that's good therapy.
butter is your friend
Nice how are you now?
I just think the level of professionalism is unsurpassed. Steve's ability to describe texture, flavour and all the sensory cues associated with consuming these rations is absolutely astounding. Love your work mate.
I also like how he ties in his knowledge about MRE industry
Also how he sets the scene, like not heating up food because you won't want to create heat for reasons such as smell, light, etc.
@@chris.breadz "let's get this onto a tray. Alright! Nice!!" Never gets old.
I like that he understands nutrition and also actually physically looks like someone who understands nutrition
He's the best! I've been watching him since he first started. I actually have an MRE from 2008 I want to send him.
You know you're an addict when instead of going to bed at a reasonable hour for work you stay up to watch Steve get this out onto a tray...
Sucks for you, it’s 7 AM where I’m at, the perfect way to enjoy coffee😂❤
nice
Currently 5 am, watching this before bed..
Jesus Steve! We thought you was dead!!
nice mkay
I love how 10.000 years of food sience have basically brought us back to nuts, berries and meat.
🤯
If it ain't broken, don't fix it.
We can definetly make a more space efficient nutrient paste. But it won’t taste good. Adding familiar flavors, textures and sweets boosts morale.
Well after it took us to the literal garbage of things like bug patties, McDonald's, and soy, yeah I'll take the classics. Food that came outta the ground via Sun, or food that had a mom.
@@denmanfite3156 did you see the same thing I did? Steve eating a chicken cotton sponge.
I think my favorite part of this one is at about @29:21 where he explains how you could get it out on a tray and then he "nice"s his own explanation. lmao I love this channel.
was perfect delivery and had me bustin up for a minute!
I have been watching Steve for years and I adopted "nice, nkay" into my daily vocabulary. 😂
He couldn’t help himself lmao
I lolled
Bust me know
The fact that 3 weeks after posting this, the video is over 1.2 million views is a testament to how much we enjoy this content. Keep it up!
Are you saying that we " eat these videos up" ? Yes, we do.
Are you saying that we " eat these videos up" ? Yes, we do.
@@geofredotappan9777it's almost like they're a meal, ready for us all to eat.
nice
By very few I mean like 1%😂😂😂
Steve, looking at three-year old military ration cherry bar: "It's one of the most exciting moments of my life!"
Me, watching Steve: "Yeah, me too."
I prefer watching this than witnessing Jesus in the second coming
Who is Jesus Christ to you?
@@email6743 Santa claus
Not an exciting cherry bar
@@email6743 Some guy
Steve's reaction to 3 year old cheesecake: "Oh yeah, that's fresh!"
Good to have you back, Steve.
if this guy was into wine he would fucking crush it as a sommelier. He's so descriptive and thoughtful
he's too cultured for the wine people
I’d like to imagine some of the people who work on creating these meals, watching Steve’s unmitigated enthusiasm for compressed/ dessicated/ freeze dried meals and beaming with pride. I’ve never seen a guy show such appreciation for stuff that often barely even looks like food. Never change, Steve. 😂
They make them all in where I was born, Natick Massachusetts!!
It does look like a halfway stage between normal food and food in pill form.
I like Steve's and Emmy made ration reviews. They both always have great descriptions and never any of the "over the top" gag reflex and rude reviews.
Ancient one is a retired marine who also does reveiws. He likes to take them out fishing and camping so thats really fun too.
I THOUGHT THIS DAY WOULD NEVER COME! BEST YEAR EVER!
real
I checked the channel religiously for any updates.Finally some good news for 2023! Steve is back 🎉
nice!
Had no idea you were a fan of Steve's! Cheers, Quinn!
IKR!
I love how wholesome Steve's fans are instead of talking about the food everyone is talking about how worried they are, Steve's character, or being happy that Steve has returned.
i mean, that's how you know the fans care
I was following a really wholesome young lady on a channel called Trillium - and then a few months ago she just disappeared and she hasn’t posted since.
It’s the same type of community.
thats not wholesome, thats parasocial lol
@@VertyGoose someone made a tweet about how he ate a Chinese MRE and died. It got like a couple million views. I think it caused a pretty normal response of worrying about him
@@VertyGoose you're probably new to the internet if you think that's parasocial lol
Something I appreciate as I’ve watched this channel for so many years is how he explains the science behind the caloric amount and nutritional value, combined with the packing efficiency. So cool.
The Alton Brown of MREs.
Opening a bar that looks like a pink easer, “this is the most exciting moment of my life”
29:22 Steve is incapable of saying “get it out onto a tray”, without following up with a “nice” and I love him for that.
Wonderful comment. Nice.
Came here to say this and I’m glad I’m not the only one who enjoyed it 😂
Love that his tone for the "nice" was the exact same inflection people use when the say "right?" When explaining something
Exactly. "get it out onto a tray" has become one of my favorite things to say for all occasions.
yeah I was laughing so hard when I heard that lol
I'm sure we can all agree that Steve dropping a video is amazing and we were all wondering if he was ok, but then he goes and drops 2 videos. Steve I salute you, the nicest person on the internet.
@@dongvermine The truth is far stranger. There are endless Steve clones. When one drops from bad Mammoth meat, another takes his place.
he stays more up to date on reddit on his off months!!!
@@dongvermine “pooled over ur eye’s”
I don’t even know where to begin with this one.
@@cwg73160 unpool the wool 😅
I dont think you understand how much I needed to see you again Steve. These MRE videos are like sacred to me and I ALWAYS enjoy a meal along side you when you are testing the food out. Much love!
Why would he understand? Is there a tangible measurement regards degrees of needing to see him?
I’ve been watching this man eat rations for years now. Protect this guy
Pretty sure he is shelf stable by now
@@darklighter66 he can survive ww3 for years on end
The man belongs in the Smithsonian..you are a national treasure, steve..welcome back!!!!
Idk, have you seen those biceps. I think the man can protect himself.
Steve has spent the entire year in a hyperbolic time chamber, and has returned stronger than we can even imagine.
Nice.
I pictured a bed-sized retort pouch, from which he emerges with a nice hiss.
wait thats not how the hyperbolic time chamber works
@@theweedeater1842 it can work darn well how it chooses to
That’s right MRE, you’re not looking at your average type 1 coffee anymore. You see, they have ascended to something greater, they have finally packaged the legendary type 2 coffee.
HOW MUCH -JUICE- COFFEE DID HE DRINK
Dude makes a return after a year of absence and expects us to tune in?
Damn right we will. Missed you Steve
@@dongvermine A.I. the future content creator
My trays were starting to get moldy.
The real Steve is clearly being imprisoned in this new, imposter Steve's bicep.
@@dongvermine Same dude spamming about how he died on his other videos. Get a life mate.
Seems like a historic MRE moment. I was here
That buffalo chicken bar looks like something they'd eat on a small-time mining vessel in a space sci-fi setting.
Red Dwarf?
The MRE reviewer we need but don’t deserve has finally returned. You dropped this Steve 👑 .
nice
@@Steve1989MRE we miss you steve 😢,
Gotta love Steve makes a video dissappears for an entire year then just dips back in no explanation everyone just loves he's back however long it may be for this time.
@@Steve1989MRE We missed you so much Steve, *nice hiss*
@Steve1989MREInfo thank you Steve you make great content you could make any content you want and we will watch 👍 👌
Steve has evolved so much over the year, he's reached future rations
for us it was 1 year; for Steve the leap was instantaneous.
lol that's funny up next mre space addition..
Nice!
nice
What mres does the space force get? Red Bull and Monster?
Your vocabulary is incredible. As a chef you have to learn the correct words to match and describe the food your eating and I must say you do it allot better than myself! Great video looking forward to more to come
I know right
As someone who loves food listening to chef's beautiful poetry of food is like listening to Quantum Physics' professor describing particle accelerator. It makes no sense to but I still love it. ^_^
@@jamesconnor4807it’s the confidence and self assured way he describes everything in simple terms. That’s why I like him.
Those peanuts & M&Ms would've boosted my morale even if I had to breach Normandy. Niceeee MRe
THE KING HAS RETURNED. This just made my whole night. Thank you Steve
I clicked so fast, let’s go!
Jolted when I saw the notification pop up on my phone
So hyped
nice
nice
It's honestly refreshing to see someone who is so unapologetically passionate about a niche interest like this. 💜
nice!
Nice.
It's research at this point. There's no one on the planet that knows this stuff better than he does.
I once heard someone observe that it is always attractive to see someone being passionate about something. I really believe this is true, although it certainly fails to explain why so many women are attracted to "cool guys" who make a point of acting aloof from and disinterested in EVERYTHING. 🤷♂️
@Thomas Marshall In my experience, those kinds of women are interested in everybody. They don’t care about common interests, they just have one goal. You know what it is.
For all we know Steve is some secret soldier who disappears on missions just to come back and post some ration bangers
Dude your videos literally help me cope with my depressive episodes. Everything about these are just great. The tradition of the musical spoon, the positive vibes, just everything. Thanks bro.
Edit: good to see you back man
Edit #2 : I think its really....nice
Hope you do well!
29:24 Steve is psychologically hardwired to say “Nice” immediately after he says “Get it out on a tray”, like a Pavlovian response
Lmfao amazing.
Pavlovian response- 🤣 good one!
Steve returns after almost a year and doesn't fail to deliver. He's the hero we don't deserve but we needed right now.
Plot Twist: Steve actually died a year ago, and what we're really seeing is his ghost making content on this channel from now on
@@dongvermine No its not. Are you seriously that bored?
@@dongvermine I believe the words you are looking for are “actually” and “memoriam” when using a Qtip you are supposed to stop when there is resistance.
I thought that Chinese ration from last year killed him. Glad to know it didn't.
Welcome back from the dead, Steve!
@@dongvermine words are hard huh? Not sure what you’re on, but it must be good.
In my opinion FSR "sandwiches" land somewhere between "edible" and "you may be entitled to financial compensation".
The snacks, fruit bars, etc are all *chef's kiss" magnificent
He never dissapeared, he just waited for the food to get old
When the world is in shambles. Steve returns to being some shelf stable content. Love you man!!
I'm so hyped he uploaded. Steve has a shelf life of forever lol.. never get tired of watching him
@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist8 Did jesus eat an 100 year old MRE? didn't think so.
@@anonimus370 2000 yrs ago he had a Roman fish sauce condiment on top of a dormouse
@@nige3801 Cloned fish?
@@anonimus370 probably, them scales pointed the way for the music 🎶
I'm assuming I'm not the only one who has been worried about Steve for like 6 months. So glad he's ok! His secret to inspiring undying devotion will ever be a mystery!
😂 I've been checking daily for new videos from him.
I was worried, too.
So relieved to see you! I was afraid COVID got you.
I was worried too. I thought maybe a dodgy ration took him out of commission. I was relieved!
I just checked his channel yesterday after thinking "Huh, I haven't gotten an alert for a new video, maybe I missed it?" only to find nothing posted for a year. Then bam! Next day, new video!
❤❤❤❤❤ Missed you Steve. My daughter and I started watching your videos back when she was in elementary school. She’s a JR in HS today and we are again watching and loving your videos. Yes, I’m saying we bonded over these and to this day we both hope for a hiss anytime we open a package.
Thanks for the priceless memories made around the talent and experiences you’ve shared.
Steve is the the best MRE connoisseur out there. The top dog of the military ration review. He never fails to inform and entertain. The man, the myth, the legend!
Love how Steve can not stop himself from saying "Put it on a tray...nice" in the middle of describing a piece of food lol 29:22
Haha, I definitely had to rewind that a couple times 😆
hahah caught that one too
Nice!
Its pronounced "chrhey" .
I loved that as well!
The "Bob Ross of MREs" returns. You're amazing, Steve! 🙂
Perfect comparison, Steve talking about simple MREs is hypnotic
Stop comparing everyone with a mild disposition to Bob Ross. Steve is nothing alike him.
@@terminator572 It's a compliment. VERY few people has that hypnotic dialog like Bob Ross while doing something mundane. I don't understand why you're so pressed 😅
The US military discovered the recipe for lembas and immediately made a buffalo chicken version.
Steve is very much in a “mix all the food together” mood in this one. Nice.
The fact steve is trending youtube is a testament to how much of a legend we have missed
Two MRE reviews in an hour? You're spoiling us as usual, Steve. Absolute legend.
nice
@@Steve1989MRE nice
@@wildnessinframe nice
@@Steve1989MRE nice
@@Steve1989MRE umkay
It's nice to know that even the US military knows who to call in order to test the palatability of field rations
Glad to see the direction these rations are going in, with the use of MCTs instead of transfats, and of course its light weight and compact size while maintaining caloric content.
Steve managing to obtain pre-production rations never ceases to astound me
He's a staple in the MRE community. I bet many of the people who design rations like these for the military watch his stuff
@@GigaBoost Maybe they send it to Steve to sign off on before introducing the MRE to the Military
Military’s make sure Steve signs off on it before they supply troops with them.
@@XNick291X would be funny tho xD
@@XNick291X I just imagined him saying that he didn't quite like that particular menu, or that he feels like the shelf life could be better, and the food scientists working on the MREs being like "Dang it, back to the drawing board" 😂
I've watched other people's ration videos and no one compares to Steve. When they just try something and say "yeah, this tastes good" I'm internally yelling --- "I NEED MORE DETAILS!!!!" Steve is a legend and the interest and care that he puts into these videos is so appreciated!
Agreed 120%. Hopefully STEVE IS BACK for awhile
@@dongvermine shut up dude. You are thinking about the wrong Steve. He is alive and welk
My favourite other mre channel is me ancient
bot just MRE reviews, Steve shits on almost every type of food or product review out there
"mmm... yeah... that's decadent"
Love the videos, your descriptions are immaculate and I hope you know how much we all appreciate you Steve! 💕
Watching Steve eat military rations than span many number of years iterations are among the most entertaining video's on CZcams. He is the best of the evaluators and provides the most detailed descriptions. I hope he never stops and stays active as long as the technology evolves. He is bringing a ton of information and entertainment to so many people. Good job Dude!
Dude's explanation on the intricacies of food tech is what that sets him apart from other pretenders. Shows his pure passion ln the subject. Never change, steve 👍
Absolutely agree, Steve's a legend!
Pretty sure he's the og too
Steve's popularity⭐️ is as well preserved as any MRE
@Karl with a K Every time he shows up he's bigger and more jacked. Eventually he's going to be 800 lbs. of pure muscle. The power of MREs lol.
I cant describe how much I adore your descriptions. Thanks for what you share!!
Loving the more in depth analysis on the nutritional value of the different components
@29:26 I absolutely love how he compulsively said "nice" after saying "get it out on a tray" in a hypothetical aside
😆
Nice!
That had me laughing. Like it's a compulsion.
@@swj719 it's pavlovian at this point
Good to have you back Steve! You're like bay leaves in a good stew. Your presence isn't always at the forefront, but your absence never goes unnoticed.
Best food-based compliment ever.
@@Nono-hk3is thanks!
best comment right here!
Welcome back, Steve!
SO true!
The grape drink looked like a small galaxy while it was swirling around in Steve's glass.
Call it "Galaxy Juice" and you've got all the PR for this ration to take hold.
I can’t believe how fascinating his videos are. From his descriptions, I can almost taste this from his description. He’s really the ideal person for this. His enthusiastic Surfer accent could easily talk me into eating things I would never have eaten.
Steve you're a goddamned legend. Very few CZcamsrs can stop releasing videos for nearly a year and just drop a couple videos casually without any "Sorry I've been gone" statement. We missed you! Keep doing what you're doing!
He’s with the likes of GradeAUnderA
I hear his famous line on other CZcams videos.
Were right with releasing
It's because it's his hobby and passion. CZcams isn't his whole life.
Been travelling spending that sweet Tube money, now he needs to reup on that dough.
I think Steve may be the only universally loved person on the internet. Thank God your back!
he's as well preserved as some of these MRE's
MRE Jesus and Gun Jesus are the only two I can think of.
I’m too impatient to watch most videos longer than about 8min but I’ll gladly watch a +45min video watching Steve open MREs😂
Thats saying A LOT.
The mans work speaks for itself.
I didn't realize I watched the whole thing
Every time you say “…Let’s get this out onto a tray… Nice!” it brings me indescribable joy.
WE ARE SO BACK!!! congrats on 2 million subs Steve, so well deserved and so happy to finally see you again!
nice!
@@Steve1989MRE nice
Me -watching Steve’s latest video while eating.
My gf over hearing- “omg is that the MRE guy?? Is he back ?! “
Equal excitement was shared, good to see yah again Steve🫡
I was legit excited but still made myself wait a couple of days to watch it because they are so calming.
@@katieamarsh understandable haha, the only kind of ASMR I’ll listen to ^😂
I can't express how grateful I am for both uploads, your videos do wonders for my anxiety! Thanks you Steve
I LOVE the way he just gives so much nutritional information which kinda teaches me a tone of what other foods can I try to eat (that are not MRE) that are full of nutrients to help during a weight loss journey.
Would love to see you make a video of what you eat during the weak or prep meal recommendations!
The way he talks about freeze drying. Knowing he made a video on an entire thanksgiving freeze dried meal, and he didn’t even plug his own video this man is a legend.
i was waiting for a short recap, but nope.
nah thats the beauty of it he was never here to youtube he catalogs his experience for the historic value alone to share with those in the future how there foods tasted like
of course he enjoys eating them immensly if i had to guess its a mix of that collectors high and the satifaction of eating something no one will probly taste again hes exploring historyvthrough his taste buds
though he may be addicted for real too the vintage cigarettes and "caffeine" stimulant chocolates but can you blame him the old ones had alot of real tabacco and no additives
and im 80% that german cocoa had cocaine or meth in it
Steve really upped his game on this prototype ration. This is one of the most information packed reviews combining food tech, nutrition, weights and measures, taste, etc. Good to see you back, Steve. One more video in the back pocket. Didn't want to binge on both of them in one sitting.
He has been hiding under the floor at the manufacturer for a year spying and waiting until he could grab the new prototype…
I got so excited I watched both.
I'd never even heard of this type of ration tech before, and when I saw the intro thought "hey, I'm going to read up on this after watching it." And now after watching it, I don't need to read up on it because Steve covered everything :)
@@Raskolnikov70 one of the things we appreciate about Steve. he looks it up so we don't have to
I know right is crazy good and interesting!
Disappears for a year, uploads like nothing happened.
Absolute chad
I love how much information you're providing along with the mre itself
Sorry of this sounds weird but I'm genuinely glad you're still alive and that you're still sharing your passion for rations galore with us thank you Steve
It never occurred to you that he might just have other things going on in his life?
@@Bubba__Sawyer he ate a Chinese MRE, we assumed the worst

It is insane to me how charming and interesting Steve is. Like I could care less about MREs and yet I have been binging this content for the last 3 hours just because of the way he analyzes the rations.
So many food channels with massive followings only ever say things like "it's SO good" without going into any detail. And then there's Steve, describing each different piece in appearance, texture, flavor, preservation method, and nutritional value. What a treasure of a content creator and man. I'm so glad we get more!
Im more amazed he is still alive! WHERE THE F*CK YOU BEEN STEVIE!
@@KingLizardCountry his comments are vibrant and textured, and quite interest-provoking. Nice, okay, let's get the next MRE video out on display.
That was my reaction as well, but then you have to figure that there are a finite number of MRE's to review.
*Couldn't care less. Could care less means that you could literally care less.
25:40 "That's one of the most exciting moments of my life." We are kindred spirits, Steve.
Good to see you back Steve, hope things are going well, that was really interesting seeing the new tech in food technology.
I really wouldn't be surprised if the military contracted Steve out for the 3 year review with the way he's editing and the way he's describing things
Why would the military pay a youtuber when they’ve got thousands of soldiers they can make try it for free? People aren’t going to be running to a recruiting office because Steve said their experimental new ration is edible.
@@scottylee4297 you'd be surprised
@@scottylee4297 again, you'd be surprised at how many new recruits look forward and appreciate Steve.
I know you're making a different point, and there's more lucrative reasons to enlist, but it helps stating.
@@BubbyBoy if you are aware enough to see that I’m talking about a different point, then why in the world are you arguing about something completely separate? Just let it go, chap. The DoD isn’t paying Steve. Period. I wish they were, he seems like a cool dude.
On his lunch menu his comments on the beef jerky 29:25 “just get some meat out on a tray *nice*” made me laugh my ass off. Great to have you back man!
I lost it when I heard that "Nice!" 🤣
That’s the best part of his videos. Been watching him since 2017.
was hoping someone else linked this. caught me off guard, hilarious to know he's that self-aware.
Same here, it was so matter of fact my brain couldn't handle it.
@@darthgator639 hello I just wanted to say that I hope you all have a NICE day
Again, Steve-o's in depth analysis and scientific conclusions prove the fact that he truly deserves at least twice or thrice as many subscribers and that he is truly fascinated and 110% into this hobby of studying, tasting and reviewing military rations from around the world and from history. He is the grandmaster of them all. Inspired so many channels of good, curious and enthusiastic reviewers. Thank you, Steve, for all this wonderful and detailed content. Cheers, dude. Keep 'em rolling.
Glad to see you made it back ,I understand there are only so many MREs made to review
Steve is back!!! We love you Steve!
Not in a weird way… it’s just that we admire your professionalism, your calming demeanor, your fantastic knowledge about MRE’s, your organizational process, and they way you finish every meal in order!!
I seemed in the Army and the Air Force and had MRE’s in the field from time to time. I watch you at night in bed with my 10 year old son, to relax him and I before we goes to sleep.
We’ve missed your new videos and are so happy you’re back! We were worried about you.
Thanks again Steve!
Mike and Josiah in Michigan
No, no. We DO love him in a weird way. I want to get that specimen of a man layed out on a tray and devour him with my lust.
44 mins of perfection.
Congrats to the MRE prototype team, you got Steve's seal of approval!
The only award that really counts in the MRE world
Yeah, if you like constant repetition how many times can one person say calorie dense in a 45 minute period. Jesus. We get it, all of the food is friggin calorie dense! That's the point!
This is my favourite kind of military study because it just feels like a window into the everyday life of a soldier, this channel will allways be CZcams gold to me
Wow! Interesting showcase of emerging MRE technology. Thanks, Steve.
1: I know Steve is alive and well.
2: I got to enjoy my favorite, amazing, Steve ASMR style informative MRE and ration reviews (which is a rare treat these days!)
3: It was of a review and documentation of a wild new possible ration of the future! Seriously excited to see where this technology and R&D goes, super interesting stuff that hopefully will be available soon for us civvys to try out🤞 Awesome coverage of this rare ration Steve! Thanks 👍
Tf is with you people and sounds, get tf out of your house!!!!
@@dongvermine bro where you dropped on you head?
Turns out steve didn't die in Ukraine.
The ASMR eating is like sitting next to a child with bad table manners, who's never been told to close their mouth when they eat. 😑
It's so nice to see how many loyal people Steve has subbed to this channel.
nice
The opening of each video give me 80's retro movie vibes. I love it.
This man is the Bob Ross of military rations. Nice.
😂 yeah spot on
Gotta be one of the most loved dudes on CZcams. So wholesome it hurts. Been following since around 100k and had no idea how big the channel got! Go Steve!
I was there in the days when he was far below 100k subs.
I was a soldier in combat and I don't miss MRE's. Seeing this food does take me back to those days. For me the most interesting videos were the ones that showed what other countries feed their soldiers. I enjoy the channel. Great work Steve.
yes honestly i dont blame you this food doesnt look good but if someone is combat and hungry they will eat it
He's so knowledgeable and respectful. You can really tell he loves military history. Thank you for your service!
Who were you with
This one looked like something the US Space Corp would be eating. Not in zero G of course.
Some MREs are actually pretty awesome
Always enjoy your uploads, brother. So chill and relaxing.
Been a year and steve drops a couple bangers on us, one of the best channels on CZcams, steve is a CZcams legend
Really enjoy the fact that you've been extremely humble, and despite the size of your audience-- you haven't changed much about the format or the frequency you post. Kudos, Steve
1 year since he last posted
What happen to him??
@@Jay-jb2vr He died. MREs brought him back.
@@DavidSGrop Stupid lmao
@@jamesdt1980How does it feel to reply to yourself then?😂
Great to see Steve back - it's been a year since I have seen him -
The CCAR doesn't appear to have an actual "main" meal - which I think is the point - it's a mistake to divide the ration into three meals - breakfast, lunch, dinner - it's a recognition of the fact that when dropped into a modern combat zone, you are constantly in combat - there is no front line, you have no rear area where you can hunker down and prepare or enjoy a hot meal, a proper breakfast, lunch or dinner - you are constantly moving and on the go -
It's just a bunch of small, several bite sized bits of food that you can eat on the go, whenever you have time to eat them -
It's all up to you to figure out when to eat them - the Army has so little control of the situation, it can't dictate what is breakfast, lunch or dinner time - like they could back in the day - now, it's all up to you -
Exactly. The Ukraine war has proven this to a fine point
Thanks for the video Steve! I look forward to more in the future!
I have missed Steve1989 so glad to see your videos and hearing your voice again
Love how happy and excited Steve sounds most of the time, specially when he's putting the food on the tray.
Nice

Enough talk. Let's get this food onto a tray. Nice!
I’m so happy to see Steve upload a new video. I’ve been waiting anxiously for the next one and he really delivered with this! Steve is like therapy for me, I love his commentary and his dedication to doing what he loves. Thank you, Steve!
