I don't even think they are the regular sticks, which I love. These look like they have Salmiak in them, and that is an acquired taste. I never looked at the inside of them, so I can be very wrong.

Mee eens, maar ze hebben echt de dubbelzoute opgefokt by Klene. Kan echt niet. Vroeger zag je het zout helemaal gekristaliseert zitten op die blokjes..

hhahahah ja he

There also seem to be only two levels of liking licorice. You love it, or not at all.

@@IWontBuy-RP alles moet gezonder en zout is ongezond, dit is ook waarom een hele hoop chips smaakloos geworden is. doodzonde

@@GrimHellscream But we don't say someone weighs 90.7 kilo's. We say 90 or 91.. and height also just goes 2 digits after the dot.

This just confirms that American food is jam-packed full of sugary preservatives. I mean we know our food kinda sucks that way but it’s awesome to be called out for it. 😂👍🏼 Makes you miss the simple things we used to have, honestly.

yes! I find it way to sweet and intense (I'm also Belgian). A lot of American foods are not even allowed to be sold in Europe because the stuf that is in it. So perhaps more natural flavors get lost to them because they are so used to all the additives in their brands?

But the difference between that one and this the Dutch, we don’t have pear in them. It’s purely apple and therefore less sweet I think?

@@guppie19833 the one in the Dutch ration is Belgian made (commercially available)

@@Heylighen ah oké I didn’t know that sorry. Just was referring to the Dutch ones in the store.

I'm 6'6 (and a half) Dutch air force officer and believe you me, you don't want to have to carry me out of a burning building. Yeah, we get built big and sturdy...

I'm Dutch, 203cm (6'8"?) and 110KG. I'm a bit bigger than most but certainly not someone to draw looks on the street or something.

Dutch woman here. 5'9

6’2 let’s go.

I'm Dutch and I am 1.84 m tall (about 6ft). For a Dutch adult male, that's just about average, so in the Netherlands I'm almost never the tallest person in a group. I went on holiday in Japan earlier this year and felt like a giant.

Let’s make that two!

I can fully understand...

Pretty disappointed it was "only" a vitamine D3 package, but quite understandable for the MRE... 🤣

The better pills are in the air force MRE 🤣

Dutch MRE's should have an orange pill... to convert the enemy!

😂😂😂😂😂

although most do not even contain liver these days. It is lika a "modern" form of like pott meat, to conserve it. I think that is basically the basic idea between all those European meat spreads, be it a real french pate, a German "Leberwurst" or "Streichwurst" (the first one would have some liver in it, if it is a traditional receipe, the second could be literally anything) or whatever. .

the 'paté' in these rations is most of the time 'ardenner' type (mixed meats) as liver is the most expensive one. The peanuts also are of the roasted unsalted kind.

I feel like us Dutch and the Finns are the only people that actually like licorice. That's ok, more for us! ;D

@@SecondSinceexactly!!

I love licorice, people look at me like I'm crazy when I say that but I don't care it's yum. Problem is they don't sell many varieties because it's not popular in many places. Now i know where to look for some hehe

@@SecondSince Many foreign people don't trust it at all due to the colour. It reminds them of inner tube I guess. Actually many have the same issue with Satay sauce. It reminds them of sh*t. Although it doesn't smell like that. Almost every wednesday or tuesday in the Dutch forces.

😂😂😂

Braakbal

Some American's do, some don't. You can find it in the US, but it's expensive, and oatmeal is a lot cheaper so is more likely to be the go-to.

^ totally what they said… also living in California, I usually see muesli being eating by like people really into eating healthy

I have actually become a pretty big fan of Muesli as a result of this videos. One of my go to items to bring with me when hiking or rucking

Europeans love their Müsli.

I prefer to mix it with yoghurt. Suppose they can't powder that yet.

Apple syrup. Tastes like extremely tangy maple syrup!

@@JoshSweetvale Try it on real bread with real old cheese.

@@JoshSweetvale nah not a syrop, more a sweetsour apple taste rather than tangy. marmite is tangy. also not a syrop, has more the consistency of a thick jelly/jam. godtier sandwich is a thin layer of real butter and a double layer of appelstroop on a bed of freshly baked slice of white bread. c'est trés bien! has the same function as eating a wiedergutmachungsschnitzel on the 4th of may, our ww2 rememberance day....to act as comfort food.

Why would the dutch have an artic ration? They don t have any land close to either poles, nor moutains.

​@@etienne8110 Uhmm, because our Marines and Special forces train anywhere from the deep jungle, to the desert to the arctic so they can operate anywhere in the world and be deployed to any NATO country when neccesary.

@@etienne8110 not invasion, rescue and liberation

Is salted licorice actually good? I love black licorice. It's one of my favorites, but I've never tried salted.

@@MotionlessKnight If licorice is like mustard salted licorice is like wasabi. It clears your sinuses. Functionally speaking licorice is antiviral and the ammonia salt in salty licorice is antibacterial. If you are out in the cold with lots of other people, licorice is your friend, salty licorice is your best friend, and double salty licorice is your very badass mother.

Our licorice is like that. Really salty. It called zoute drops. We got other varieties too.

​@MotionlessKnight it's alright, try out a brand of salted licorice candy called "Spunk".

​@@MotionlessKnight if you ever get a chance to try 'ovaaltjes', go for it. They are my favourite salty licorice. But the salmiak ones are great, too.

Awesome that makes sense about the jet stove and messtins

I was 1993 I think the next generations after us are very big whe are the tallest people in the world so they say. LMFAO

@@Raven-nx8suI was about to say so I guess our men need the food to maintain their healthy tall body

Yeah, I remember the old WOL-pakket (warme maaltijd, ontbijt en lunch). Two Struijck tins and a box of assorted goodies. The old style ones required a tin opener and were things like "peas, potatoes and pork" or "brown beans and pork", the later ones had the easy open tops on the tin. I personally found the rice, chicken and ratatouille ones horrible, there was always a texture to those that was like someone added a teaspoon of sand during the production process. I loved the chocolate bar and the thick crackers in the old style boxes, you could live a day off of the chocolate alone.

@@0cypher0 Interestingly, as a student I used to eat brown beans and pork belly on a fairly regular base as it was cheap. Drizzle the hot fat over the beans and scoop a generous spoon `appelstroop` through it and it was a pretty decent meal. Because I was sort of used to this combination the brown beans and (lean) pork tin was the only one that I managed to empty, though due to not being able to bring stroop I added a sachet of sugar instead. To think that these cans were also sold in regular supermarkets... always wondered what masochists bought them, never saw anyone grab one. The `zeekaak` (dehumidified thick crackers) was my favourite as well, I used to collect them from the others in my group who apparently had weak teeth ;) and if I'd been lucky enough to be able to smuggle a salami along I would throw out the Struyk tin instantly and live the good French life on crackers and sausage, less the wine.

It was def not my favorite!

the situation was pure comedy gold!

To be fair. I am fairly tall for a Czech at 187cm and roughly 100kg [6feet 2 and 220 pounds for freedom units] and I always feel barely average compared to my Dutch business partners. My shorter boss has a bit of a complex when dealing with them. 😁

I am sooooo tiny for a Dutch woman 😭. Just 1,62 m

At 1m98 and 113kg I'm slightly above average for Dutch people. But at least it allows me to read the serial number on a Sidewinder X guidance section when it's mounted on an F-16 without needing stairs.

Yeah, the Dutch military doctrine seems to be that it's better to have 3 good dinners than 5 crap ones.

100% that's part of the reason that winter depression is a thing

The Netherlands is farther north than most of the Canadian population centers but the vast majority of that huuuuge country is way further north than the Netherlands. The most northern point of the Netherlands is 53 degrees latitude and a *lot* of Canada is beyond that. Edmonton for example.

Dutch doctors tend to stress a healthy diet and plenty of sunlight instead of artificial vitamins. But apart from that you're probably not wrong.

​@@passantNLeven then they say that people that mostly work inside take additional d3. It is also needed for anyone with a darker skin that stays for a prolonged time in the Netherlands.

Yes, nearly every person in the Netherlands that I know and have had there vitamine-D levels tested had too low levels. Even when they had white skin. This might be because they are homebodies, but still I think it's smart to supplement as long as you don't overdose.

Appelstroop op kaas? Interessant

​@@EvertfromNederlandDeed mijn moeder ook altijd. Best lekker!

lol

Also, You hit gold with these MRE videos. As a Dutchy myself, I really enjoyed watching this. Great job to you both, Happy 4th of July!

Works well on pancakes too.

Or with Dutch ‘extra belegen’ cheese

And with cheese on top It was ‘Du vrai sirop de Liège’ aka Luikse stroop Dus niet eens Nederlandse stroop😨

I thought I heard the name Delhaize? In which case it might be apple/pear syrup.

@@EdwinHofstra klinkt wel als Delhaize, maar hij zegt ‘Du vrai syrop de Liège’ (Echte Luikse siroop) Volgens mij kun je die ook (hier) in Nederland kopen

Great idea!

Sounds pretty good!

@@Butterworthdasyrup Being Belgian I wanted to suggest our MRE’s but I found out we just use the French ones. Bummer.

bon voyage

I actually enjoy it too!

It's like appelstroop. Typical Dutch too. Not special from Liège. You get it everywhere in Limburg.

If it was the Dutch appelstroop, the package would say at least "Rinse appelstroop". So our Belgian friend is actually very right there with the specific labelling of "sirop de Liège". 😎 Greetings from the Noord-Brabant - (Flemish) Belgium border! 😃👋🏽

Thank you!

Same here, the Brazilian coffee should be really good.

It was rough towards the end for sure

AMRE????? Special episode?!

​@@ButterworthdasyrupI'd watch that!

@@Butterworthdasyrup you're on to something, there, Sergeant.🤪

@@stevencorey7702 Sold! Will do one of these asap!

Not just Scandinavian liquorice, we dutchies also like salmiak in it. Unfortunately, cheap brands do not have it. If it doesn't taste slightly like the inside of a battery, you're missing out.

The Netherlands eat more liquorice then any other country in the world and we just like our friends in the cold north love it with Salmiak in it. The rest of the world is just insane for not liking it.

I actually hated black liquorice until I tried salmiakki from a German exchange student, it was literally the first type of black liquorice I liked. It could also be that the black liquorice you can get in North America is mostly just terrible flavouring that tastes almost nothing like actual liquorice

​@@13374meWhen I was a child we could still get actual licorice root at the candy store to chew on, called zoethout (sweetwood). It's still available online, because it has a laundry list of health benefits. And you can use it to brush your teeth. In '85 we were told to use the salt for the latter.

Interesting didn't notice that myself
