To be fair the ready wise is a 25 year shelf life while the peak is 5 years which probably would explain the lack of flavor. One is for prepping the other is for camping or hiking crap like that.

Mountain House was my go-to backpacking food. It's been around for DECADES. I always carried some salt and spices. Chilly mac was one that required some extra cooking. However, I seem to remember Mountain House way back when as having a cheese packet you added after cooking.

No matter what is on this channel, Tyler finds some way to make it entertaining. Don't know how, but I love it!!

"Never underestimate Readywise in their ability to mess something up." That made my day.

tyler is the kind of guy who would eat MREs as normal food. we all know whats in his friddge,and an mre would be the healthy option

The mountain house water level is usually way too much. You could probably add 10-15 % less and vastly improve the flavor.

On one hand, I can understand Tyler's criticism on the taste, on the other, in a situation where you actually need this stuff, you'll eat it because it's food. Taste becomes secondary when you need it to survive.

Anyone notice he had ”R” under the bowl for ”Peak” and the ”P” under the ”Readywise”. @1:06

Tyler should get a freeze dryer and experiment with it, always a fun time freeze drying things like candy, meats, fruits... pretty much anything comes out strange and sometimes good AF.

The ultimate survival food is 5 minute lunch Ramen and noone can convince me otherwise

I’m curious on price difference and expectation dates. Like maybe flavor is sacrificed for food longevity?

For similar comparison type videos in the future I think it'd be interesting to also know the price differences

I really like some of the mountain house meals, I usually bring a couple when I go camping. Biscuits and gravy is the goat

I would look also at the shelf life as a consideration because if your using it for backpacking meals peak would be ok with a 5 year shelf life. But if your wanting something for emergency food Mountain House has a 30 year shelf life and Readywise coming in a 25 years or more they say.

I have some perfectly preserved pie in an annoying machine that only works 1/100 times so ill be fine.

Tyler: one thing you could've compared is their breakfast selection. They always say you can't screw up breakfast unless you try. LOL

Tyler: "This one's chewy, what kind of meat is this?" Mountain House Rep: "It no longer exists!"

I use the mountain house meals for my hunting bags it’s pretty good.

I use Mountain House and they work well. Never found the Stroganoff as bland really. Maybe not inundated in flavor but tasted pretty good. Blindfold really does not matter for this sort of test as they all are different. In the end they are good for for hiking. One thing I noticed is to use less water about 2/3 to 3/4 what is described to do. My gf loves the Mountain house lasagna.. so best to go less water otherwise too watery and can bland it

I swear I laughed so hard when he poured that last beef stroganoff out lmfao

You should probably keep some of the ones you don't like in your emergency supply too. (you can trade them to desperate people for stuff you might need) if they're hungry they won't care as much about the flavor. Also maybe the ones with less flavor could be fixed with some spices. IDK. Does one brand have more nutritional value? That might be important in a survival situation? I think I'm going to try this sample test with a few different brands of survival food too.

I've seen too many views on this kind of food and everyone always has Mountain House is probably the best

Tyler you should try resting different types off chap-stick! My lips always get super dry and go through a tube off chap stick in less than a month

U should try all 24 military MRE's next, that is what I've been buying lately. I've had the mountain house teriyaki chicken and it was awesome.

Great taste test video. More entertaining than others ive seen for sure

Great video as always dude 👍

That was pretty interesting, so many different choices, it’s good to see someone do a taste test !

I work at a dc and peak is notorious for having horrible packaging always send the wrong stuff and half the time the bags aren’t even sealed

I just saw these for the first time today at a truck stop in Wyoming. Peak was selling for eight bucks a bag and I wondered who would pay that? Backpackers.

do more blind taste tests, that was a really cool video!

Great video! Thx bro👍🏾💯

My Wife bought me Manscaped off his channel last year.That is a really good clipper.

Love watching Tyler. I wonder how these are after a 4 hour hike when your taste buds are drained. The semi-bland probably tastes a lot better whereas the normal tasting one could be "heavy" tasting.

I find it interesting you pick peak everytime. I used to eat peak until I tried Mountain House and I thought it blew peak out of the water. Peaks packaging is also junk, I had multiple peak bags leak all over in my pack.

Just a heads up, readywise is the only one that actually is emergency survival food. the others are actually low weight camping food, at least by way of advertising

Gotta admit no matter what he does always seems to make it entertaining ❤️

Me and my dad would always test MREs too and mountain house is the best! I would make them when I just wanted something quick to eat! The spaghetti is really good.

Lol. Awesome. Sharing.thank you

I'm freaking starving right now. I would tear these up.

Ill be sure to check out peak they have a pretty good selection

Can you do a rich man freeze dried food end of world. Check out backpackers pantry, pack it gourmet, and Patagonia provisions . Pack it gourmet makes really good meals.

Good video! Probably saved me some money. Thanks!

I found a life hack for all of these Hot sauce and occasionally cinnamon and chocolate sauce

the first two actually look really good

"Thanks for watching, I'm going to go finish these 15 different meals that I made for myself, and I'll make another video when I can talk without puking." - Tyler (probably)

8:15 "this ones not good at all" takes another bite

I never thought I’d find myself watching a survival/prepper food mukbang.

You should test more “as seen on TV” products! The last video was great! You should also test more of these emergency foods, fun video

Peak Refuel hands down

Tyler: may you do more survival oriented reviews or test (even fictional ones) I would really enjoy that.

You should try all the breakfast options next

I wish that we could have a Mexican candy or Mexican food video part 2 on TylerTube

Lol that look after the 3rd dump

You should try the Bakker prepper buckets for hits and giggles.

Think you got em mixed up at the end there. The one you dumped with “peas & carrots” was the adventure meal and that would be the one you said was best but I think I heard you call it peak instead. Much love brother keep em coming!

I'm currently enjoying a mayo sandwich with tuna on white bread.

these would make amazing “depression meals” 😅👀

I'd love to see a taste test of all the Huel Savory flavors

Mountain house has always been my favorite. I think you added too much water because mine were never that consistency. That could be why it’s bland

Peak is by far my favorite brand and mountain house is my 2nd they do have some good ones

probably could have done My Patriot Supply as they have some pretty affordable packs and it does have palatable tastes. but they do also offer a wide variety of other emergency survival stuff that i think you could test out.

Tyler’s neighbors: that Tyler guy is doing weird stuff in his garage again

ive had mountain house beef stew and lasagna you have to add like salt and pepper or other seasonings and then they taste really good

10:56 im dying 😂😂

I did not know I'd enjoy the video as much as I did

Your a good man and you make good vids and live streams

I appreciate this video. I've learned through trial and error that 4patriots is really good for freeze dried foods. Best I can remember. Certainly better than USMC MRE's. Won't stop you up either. 😁

Chili Mac mountain house is my go to for hiking.

you always make me hungry when you make videos like these. I just ate dinner

i love mountain house i got about 20 or 30 of them stockpiled

My go.to are surplus military MREs. They don't have as long of a shelf life as these but they are actually really good

I have had the beef stroganoff from mountain house. It was pretty dang good

Give the ready wise to people who know you were preparing before SHTF and tell them that’s all you have and they will leave and go find food somewhere else 👍 I was a Mountain House fan boy til I discovered Peak and now my mountain house is in a tote on the shelf for long term storage it’s so hard to go back once you realize how good a freeze dried meal can actually be 👍Peak Refuel👍for the win 🏆

I've always thought that when you do taste test videos I think it would be better if you used like an old school record turn table to spin the foods. That way adds a bit better randomness to it.

You should use different spoons in each bowl so you aren't cross contaminating your samples.

Manscape has been around for ages 😅 Good goin

Here we go it's the when ever channel blindfolded leaves the fork in the bowl then reaches out for the others in the right direction .....nice posta try replacing the o with an A then you get pasta😂😂😂

Tyler if you do this again you should try Stowaway Gourmet

I love that buzzing noise in the background probably a speaker or something that's not directly connected to the wall

I have had mountain house and ready wise before. I did not like ready wise. I will try Peak now.

My brother is a veteran and gets mres. They have a heater that activates with water. I use them during power outages and they taste good.

You should definitely include militarty MRE in that test

New to Chanel love the videos

BRO TYLER YOU NEED TO TRY Pad Thai BY Backpackers Pantry. dude it is INSANE good if you like that kind of thing.

watching this made me hungry lol.

You should do breakfast and deserts if you can find enough to compare. The biscuits and gravy from mountain house is decent.

These are pretty expensive at $13 a pop for that price you could buy Thrive Life and make meals in jars. The Freeze Dried Foodie channel has some delicious recipes. I’ve made several of her recipes they average $4-$9 for 2-3 servings in a quart jar. It’s more effort putting the jars together but there’s no msg or other additives in the food.

love the content and i find it amazing we all take advice from the guy who cant stand pickles lol

Get a freeze dryer and trying drying different foods to see how they taste. Maybe add some fast food in the mix.

Thx for for your sacrifice 😂

Peak meals are the best. I’m a professional backpacker and they’re all I eat when doing freeze dried meals. Peaks pesto chicken pasta is fantastic

Do the same thing but with breakfast meals

I was pretty shocked by your results. I have only ever had Mountain House and Peak but for me all of the Peak meals I have had left a terrible chemical type aftertaste in my mouth. my only complaint with the Mountain house ones is that they are pretty salty.

Louis de Palma from taxi had freeze dried legumes and freeze dried ice cream and forbid the eating of ice cream until you ate your legumes. This is epic up there with that show....they both make me hungry.

Should’ve been using a new spoon every time you across contaminating and that’s on your taste preference

I’m curious as to what the shelf life of these are. Are they all the same, different, or even different depending on flavors?

Like with most pre made survival type foods the sodium tends to be high flavor tends to be lacking . Canning or making your own meal plans are better long run . But Mountain house / Backpackers pantry are mild range short term survival food. Ready Wise is the cheaper alturnative usually . I have been A prepping type since 2010 ... Beans ,Rice home canned meats veg and dried fruit are in my supplies along with protein powder and milk powder in mylar bags . If you got the cash a freeze dyer can be a good long term investment but if expecting shit to happen soon . buy canned goods and shelf stable food along with food grade storage buckets . The time to prep is always cause never know what the next day can bring

Thank you for the info I probably will not use 😂😂

The real question is, which of those would allow you to survive the longest?

Awesome
