2021 British Single Meal Ration Pork Sausage Casserole MRE Review Meal Ready to Eat SMR Tasting Test
Рет қаралды 727,654
Күн бұрынThe SMR is the UK equivalence to the US MRE, and this British comfort food classic Pork Sausage Casserole is quite possibly the best menu out of the 10 currently in service. With 1,500 calories, a roaring flameless ration heater that's easily twice as powerful as an MRE's, and rugged components that are palatable and nutritious, this is truly one of the most well made military rations in the world.

This is what I like most about Steve. He just uploads at random. Nothing weekly, or monthly. Sometimes I wonder what happened when he's away for a while. But the most important of all, is he does every video with calmness, clearness, no cuss/swearing, no asking for subscribers or to like his videos, etc... He just does a review, gives an honest opinion, and let's his audience decide whether to like, comment or subscribe. Unlike many KZfaqrs who think they have to ask, beg, plead, in each video. Sometimes 2, 3, or more times. It gets old.

Steve's videos are the only ones I play at normal (1x) speed, there's something about them that makes you want to savor them and not blast through them. The sounds? His voice? The camera shots (like the cloud of dust when he poured the drink powder?)

Omfg same! I've gotta watch everything on at least 1.25x speed cause mfkrs talk slow to draw out their video time. I'm trying to straight CONSUME some damn information when I'm watching. Even some Steve videos I've gotta skip through lil bits occasionally. Idk how people can stand to watch videos at regular speed anymore. I've found myself wishing I could turn up most people's speech rates irl too. Makes me feel nuts how slow a lot of people speak.

Really enjoyed this one. I was in my school’s army cadets in the 1980s/90s and it’s great to see how much the ration packs have changed! Ours came in waxed cardboard boxes, with a metal fold-out stove and hexamine tablets for cooking. Also came with a cool little can opener as the mains were in cans. Can’t believe the biscuits brown are still in there though! They were our least favourite item - don’t remember them having any sweetness at all.

Here is another sign of Steve as a gentleman. When that biscuit broke off I would have stuck my fingers right the tea to get it but Steve shows the proper way to scoop it out with a spoon.

I think the problem is you have to buy those in bulk so it'd be a huge waste of food. Most of them are the same as (possibly even from the same OEM) single meal camping rations though and there are youtube channels that review those.
@KyleOfTheNorth 7 ай бұрын
I've tried a bunch of these as my folks bought a few containers of the 4patriots stuff. The meals are much like what you'd find in the camping section, and aside from the main dishes, it's mostly dried fruits and nuts in my experience. I haven't eaten a modern MRE but I'd bet they're tastier than most of the prepper stuff.

@@greatwolf5372 yeah I read about that. I read some places are allowed to grow it now but it has to be done in small batches in a very controlled environment.
