And... *Dont forget to hydrate*

I don't know how they did it, but the United States Marine Corp has made being yelled at, doing pt 24/7, and eating MRE's instead of real food look like the most fun thing to do with your life.

Is this buzzfeed or marines?

YOU TRADED PEANUT BUTTER AND APPLE JELLY FOR CHEESE SPREAD???

"Tactically" acquire a rock. lmao

What? Where are the crayons!?

"Tactically acquire rock" 😂😂😂

You forgot the crayons and elmers glue....

That feeling when you came from extreme poverty and actually thought the MREs were incredible when you were in. Fiesta Chicken with Vegetable Crackers and Jalapeno Cheese, you'll always have a special place in my heart. You can keep the Ham Slices and Four Fingers of Death (AKA) Beef Frankfurters though.

Hmm my Kevlar for his cheese spread. It's a hell of a decision to make. Lol

Felt like Buzzfeed made this video

Makes me want to pass-up the turkey and eat an MRE.

I love how they try to make it like one of those KZfaq cooking tutorials. Just be yourselves, and do it the marine way. But you get an A for effort, that's for sure.

Meals Rejected by the Enemy.

should show chow hall food instead, MRE's are actually nicer when compared to that....

Still better than my school lunches.

My dilemma while in The Corps was trying to trade the C-Ration Ham & lima bean meal for anything else LOL

I am Very Thankful for The United States Marine Corps! May You All Have A Very Happy, Safe and Peaceful Thanksgiving!

everything in this video is still better than school lunches.

I always carry crayons and glue for my marines just in case they get hungry. Corpsman up!

Where's the crayons?

Marines never steal, they "tactically acquire" 😂

Boot!

In '67 I never had a problem getting my hands on a can of ham and lima beans. Semper Fi and happy Thanksgiving

I love that the instructions just bluntly say "a rock or something"

Happy thanksgiving and thank u to all marines who couldn't be here for thanksgiving🇺🇸

God bless the Marines (especially after witnessing what they have to eat)! Thank you for your service!

no tabasco sauce? Wrong!

Let's get this out on a tray, nice!

I actually used these on hiking trips. MREs are really filling for being such small packs. The food is actually pretty good too, even if a little off putting at first

those are some weird looking crayons

I appreciate the humor in this

I think they should make more of these types of videos!!! So funny!!! Totally diggin it

Civilians: "Grab a rock" USMC: "Tactically acquire a rock"

I promise to join rhe Marine Corps when im 22 until then good luck,thank you for your surving this country and SEMPER FI till I die OORAH out.

that made me hungry. can't wait until I join the Marines

the heater is badass. i'll take the laughs.

Going to the Navy soon as an AG and wanted to try one of these, so I ordered one online and idk if it was inaccurate or something but it honestly tasted really good. But that might also be because all I eat is bland chicken breast, water, vegetables, and protein whey every day.

Enjoy..Thanks for your service

MRE is life

Mmm my mouth was watering from the memories

I HAVE NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT!!!!

some sjw:"the military is so privlaged"

“ get made fun of for using the heater, BOOT!!” Hahahaha 😂😂😂 good shit devil! I can count on one hand the times I actually had the time to heat up a MRE hahaha Weapon, gear, self... Best advice my senior ever gave... Semper fi gentz!

Greatness!! Best part "boot". Bring back memories

That actually looks good af

I got heartburn watching this. Can't wait to try it...

I feel like they put “a rock or something” to give the guys a little chuckle when they read this after a firefight

Still better than public school lunch.

This made me a combination of Excited and Depressed at the same time

this was pretty funny, a lot of good references

Oh my goodness I’ve never thought of that combination amazing

Still better than the school lunch

delicious

Shit is honestly fine cold, had that one during the crucible, wasn’t complaining, used the heaters to keep warm, not cook

That worked really delicious

For those wondering, "tactically acquire" means steal or obtain creatively.

looks pretty good not gonna lie

Now let’s get this onto a tray....nice

that actually looks good.

Buzzfeed called, they want their video style back.

Toss them Charms! NOW!!! Also you can put your cheese spread in with the meal cooking so you can have molten cheese dumped into your pouch. Jalapeño cheddar with jambalaya is my favorite.

People right now in their heads are like what in the world was that but when you’re over there it’s like the best food in the world 😂

It actually looks good !

Tasty, makes my mouth water. Must be a good MRE.

you can't truly appreciate this video until you've actually had to eat MRE's for days at a time.

Looks better than my school lunch

They should include a laxative pill in there. My training officer in OEM warned me about MREs. As a former soldier, he told me "If you eat those things too often, you won't s**t for a week!" I guess the key is to stay hydrated.

Damn I love these

Super fun activity: put your whole sections MRE's into their activated heater packs. use a trash bag (dont let it touch the MREs as it will melt. it takes some screwing around with rocks and sticks but its worth it) to capture the steam released. I'm no chemist so i have no idea why this steam is flammable, but it is. You now have a big ole explody balloon. Enjoy!

seems like something id make at 4 am

that actually looks good! idk why i never had a mre before but i i think ill like them idk

That more than my school and better than my school launch lol

Not gonna lie that looks good

Remember: Don't eat the purple crayons, eat the red ones instead

So colorless, needs... C R A Y O N S ( CrazyArt Brand)

ah yes melted cheddar crayons with the side of cherry red for dessert

The real marines meal is a pack of delicious crayons

That doesn't look half bad. I'm hungry.

Now in the Old Corps in VM there were rations left.over from 1955.

I was expecting crayons, this must be an alternate universe

I used the heater to warm my hands mostly. Mostly during watch though

Every meal a feast, and every day an F'ing holiday! Semper Fi.

I freakin jumped when the music started.

Happy Thanksgiving...

That actually looks tasty

Miami Dolphins are crazy AWESOME ! ! !

Let's get this out onto a tray

*pulls out box of crayons

I like the maple flavored pork MRE. It tastes like maple pancakes! Lol

ate an MRE for the first time camping with my stepdad who is a marine veteran, better than I thought but not the best.

It may be the fact that I'm really hungry but that looks delicious.

I like tactically acquiring a rock or something for an MRE

0:27 Tactically acquire a tactically tactical tactical rock or something tactically

I don't know what it would taste like. I ate C rations packed in 1952. Now those were guuuud!

some of the best meals in the world....just add hunger.

Just don't forget to hydrate

the save this one was funny and true

there is only one marine meal crayons

It just dawned on me to put the cheese squeeze with the heat pack to melt it. Iv’e been doing it wrong this whole time.
