Self preservation…

If by hobby you mean his main modus operandi yes

Nice

Don't forget that he also developed a tobacco addiction

We said that years ago. (Left the same comment) . Surprisingly , he is still here

@@LeoneLaTwerk2 On his deathbed: "....nice..."

@AndrewPonti imagine its not the food that hurt him but fumes from some of the food(i know he is protected so he knows better thankfully

Somehow I feel he is well versed in edibles

Lat me out on a tray... nice

He usually also tries to buy two of every ration, especially older ones like this, so he can donate the other one to a museum!

Often the museums only want the containers/packaging/empty washed tins for safe display purposes, which is why in many videos Steve opens containers from the bottom and purposefully saves packaging to donate to museum displays... But these videos are far more than you could ever get from a display! Plus it reaches people that would likely never see these because they didn't visit such a museum... Both are important ways to preserve history, and Steve helps with both 👍 Steve is definitely a great man for his studies, presentations, and preservations of this very important, often under appreciated history 👏

Thanks for stating the obvious

@@SteenSpinal4LIFE Are you really so devoid of a life that this was a worthwhile comment to make? I think you need to evaluate your life son. Nice talking to you.

Thanks for stating the obvious

And I would not be surprised. These rations he manages to get must be rare and expensive to get.

Spending a couple grand per unit

My favorite movies.

I have bunch in my basement collecting dust from when father was in Vietnam.

I like to imagine that

Me too, i like how his “giggity” came out lol

Came here looking for this comment.

1:04 dirty nice button

I’m a lot more close range than I’d like

Lmao dying

Yes it's had that effect on me . I was only the orther day commenting to myself about the prevalent chocolate taste in a cheap cookie .

This fruit cup was packed in Georgia in 2022 back when they mostly used corn syrup. You can really taste the Georgia peaches in this one. Imagine the morale boost it would give, plus all the energy you are refueling.

I always comment when I open a can of something "nice hiss" 😂

I think Steve is the only guy on the planet that can make smoking not only look cool, but seem like an event, rather than a force of habit; I’ve met way too many people who smoked cigarettes, and not many of them seemed to actually enjoy it, or could even describe the flavor/aroma of the cigarettes they buy. I do love the smell of pipe tobacco though. A good, quality tobacco smells sweet, somewhat fruity (like raisins), and just reminds me of my grandfather before he had lung issues and had to stop, shortly after I was born. My grandfather also served as a field medic in WW2, and while I don’t think I ever saw him hold a cigarette in any pictures, I can imagine with the hell he saw and went through on a minute-to-minute basis, a cigarette would have been a luxury, in any downtime - same with everyone else on the fronts.

Final punch

😅😅😅

Son: “Nice!”

Both hizz the sky in joy.. NIICE!

Does he have a wife or kid

😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Botulism in the canned food: "hi"

And those cigarettes!

My dad was in the British Navy in the Pacific in 1944. Just know there is no such thing as bad tea-some is just better than others. Craven A's were primo. As dad was in the Navy, there was rum ration every evening.

Right? I've never wanted to eat decades old expired food so badly.

His gravestone could say “I THOUGHT those ham & beans tasted funny!” 😕

Then the excitement when he does! Haha, 😏 nice hiss!!!

lol, i get more of an he's suspicious vibe when theirs no hiss.

@@uncleruckus6692 you’re right I was thinking that. Bc after so long and with pressure and time the rations sit sometimes, there should be some hiss I would think. 🤔 no hiss 🧐

That's not disappointment, more curiosity in his voice.

Is it disappointment? I think a hiss would mean some sort of fermentation

😂😂 totally wasn't expecting that

You delineate actions similar to emotes in an mmo. Interesting

@@greyblob1101 Throwback to the /me command of IRC days.

reminds me of FF14 emotes, yeah

The comp tea was reported by troops to be terriable back during the war. Now add in another 60 year to age the powdered milk and not even Steve would be crazy enough to drink it

That’s why both men are the very best at what they do. We mere mortals don’t deserve this excellence.

TWUD

Never get between a Brit and their tea

It's true, never get between them and their tea or they'll do something like introducing opium to the Chinese so they'd stop trying to resist their rule

:'(

He does it primarily for the packaging if its hard to get he would rather have it sealed

You know it can't be eaten if Steve refuses to! I understand he's torn between his desire to eat the rations that soldiers of significant historic periods ate or risk getting sick. Who knows how much he's paid for these rations that might be rancid?

@@davestuddert4392 I honestly think half of his enjoyment comes from the act of opening the ration.

Welcome back.

I like the idea of Steve decreeing in his will that when he dies, he is to be ground up and made into a ration and displayed in a museum

@@hannibalb8276 And this tray and cups that he uses preserved as artifacts

I think Steve has his own freeze dryer now - when he runs out of rations he just starts making his own.

A last hiss... if you will.

I liked the video where he takes a bite of a dried beef biscuit and then says..."That was not very good at all. I am not going to eat anymore of that. Well, except for this small piece that broke off. Then he eats it.". LOL!!

@@wskerber classic

Nice name lol

It's been said before, but it's odd to think that the cows, pigs etc that ended up in some of Steve's ration tins were put in cans eighty years ago.

In addition to others who had it but didn't get a chance to open.

What about that Boer war one he ate? 120 years old! Whole generations come and gone!

Makes me wonder why they dont seal them this way anymore. None of ours will last as long.(u.s)

​@@LeoneLaTwerk2I mean there's just no need to. Two years is plenty for ration, and food starts to degrade after that nutritionally and overall quality even if it's edible.

Steve goes on a first date with a girl. After dinner he walks her to her door and leans in, but gets denied. "Hmmm, no kiss," is all that is said on the long trek home.

​@@edntz When he goes to Subway for a Turkey and Swiss on Rye he goes to order he sees that one of the cheese bins are empty. So he darts his eyes to each cheese container to see which one is missing, and as he lays his eyes on the last container he knows immediately... He exclaims "Hmmm, no swiss" and promptly goes home and eats an MRE instead. The end. lol you actually read this far geeze.

when he discovers his date is a transvestite."hmm, no miss..."

Yea of course it’s still safe to smoke those stuff lol . I’d just put a filter on it

@@observantpolymath yea, I am sure it won't kill you immediately. It is just funny to hear someone call any cigarette safe. Tbh, those older cigarettes probably have less chemicals in them.

@@SillyDWilliams-VKNG I doubt they’d ever “kill” you. Unadulterated tobacco doesn’t kill you but chemical additives do. Back then tobacco was far more superior, too. I actually found his video from 5 years ago reviewing cigarettes from WWI! 😆

@@SillyDWilliams-VKNG More actually.

Cigarettes in general are bad, even if they're new

Seeing his reaction to the chocolate and the cigarettes was the best part. He was legit almost borderline giddy they both exceeded his expectations and i loved it

@@VagueSpaces Those were indians who joined Japanese Army.

My Grandad also served in Burma but he was lucky enough to make it home. Weird to think he would of ate this too. He always told me never waste food, I can just imagine the soldiers would have eaten every scrap of these rations.

My dad was also in Burma during WW2 on Akyab island with the RAF.. He came home amd went on to have 13 children of which I am the second youngest.

@@sankujamatia525 Many likely felt that joining them was their only way to survive. The things the japanese would do to their captives... disgusting. But not all of them that did those horrific things were psychopaths which is scary because that means that one with a healthy mind can become corrupted over time and do things they never would have done years before they started to rot. Who would you be if you climbed out of what felt like a century in absolute Hell seeing an endless barrage of suffering, seeing so much death, your best friends dying they're mutilated corpses all the while you're fed propaghanda telling you who to blame? You might start to believe them and may even want to do worse to them than what they did to your friends. That anger although misplaced in reality, in their detoriated emotional adrenaline fueled state of mind it makes a lot of sense. Barely anyone knows who they would become if they were put through absolute Hell, so do not presume, in a developed society of abundance in comparision to literally every other country to ever exist, that most human being are in default good in nature. I like to believe that most of us are born neither good nor evil but that changes with conditioning.

Really puts in to perspective how cheap homes were back then. Even if he served for the entire war that’s less than 2000 packs of cigarettes he had to sell. What was he selling them for? Probably a nickel or a dime a pack but even if it was significantly more because it was war time your grandpa bought a home for under $2000

Past Steve totally would have tried that! But he’s had too many scares, and actually ended up in the hospital once iirc, so I can see why he’s changed his ways.

Why would you want a hiss? That would indicate that gases have built up inside it

@@rowanmelton7643 or that it means its still air sealed?

@@rowanmelton7643 no hiss could indicate infiltration of the can, which means contamination. A little hiss indicates that its definetly sealed, and what little air there was inside just escaped. A gas build up would release a large hiss and foul smell

@@AndreLuis-gw5ox Surely a hiss means the mount of gases in the tin increased after it was sealed, due to compression, and a release of sorts? Seeing as equilibrium between the inside of the can and the outside of the can is uneven? I get it when you open a gassy drink, but to my recollection I've never opened a normal can whic actually hissed

@@rowanmelton7643 those are gasses used specifically to preserve the drinks, the same thing they're talking about above. It's no so much air that hisses, but stuff used to preserve the food or drink.
