The thing about fats and oils is that it extends the flavor. The oil allows the flavor compounds to linger on your tongue longer and so you can taste more of it.

A Bacon & Cheddar Sandwich is a British classic. A bit of butter on bread with slices of Cheddar Cheese and a couple rashers. Fried in a skillet until golden brown and the cheese is very melty. Here in the States, you've made a Bacon and Cheddar Grilled Cheese. Two adds to consider: 1- A bit of Coleman's Mustard on one (one both if you're a nutter) piece(s) of bread 2- A healthy (not a relative term) amount of Branson's Pickle. Seriously, there is quite a bit of salt in this stuff. Perhaps three: C- A true Anglophile nutter you say? Marmite, on one of the toast slices (Advance nutters only)

It's a happy day when you find a pound cake in your mre. I think the apple one is my favourite. Interestimg to see your impressions on the humble pound cake. Its definitely one of the ration items thry nailed. (Thinking of the pizza slices they didn’t nail at all) The painted rock was your best find in my opinion. :) Im not sure if ive just been unlucky, but the jalapeños cheese has never been even a little bit spicy when I've had it. I don't remember ever having the bacon cheese spread, only thing that close that ive had is in the FS rats, cheese bacon and potato spread which can also be made into a soup i believe. Great video :)

My brother is in the British Army and the trick, he told me, is you have to heat it up first, either boil it in the bag in boiling water for 7-8 minutes or put it in the FRH with the main. I tried it that way and holy shit, it is so much softer and moister that way.

They all looked good to me. Marble cake is the best, its made of the same dough, one takes chocolate and the other does not and you mix it up to make a marbled pattern on the tray, sometimes you add a little coffee to make a moka flavored one. But I am bias, I was a baker untill my late 20s and it as always been one of my favorite cakes, alongside wallnut honey and chocolate... Great video.

If you want to find super cool stuff while metal detecting, you can google and find places where battles took place in the civil war, and you can find musket-balls maybe some uniform pins, also depending on where you are at there might be abandoned military bases or sites. also consider magnet fishing, people find a lot of cool stuff! Also you should go to an rei or camp store and try some camping food out, they can have similar items to MREs for you to try and compare, great video as always!

20 years ago, when I was active duty U.S.M.C., Drug tests were not very accurate. I was obsessed with lemon poppyseed pound cakes. I popped red for heroin on a drug test. They did a blood test and found that I was actually very boring... 😂

Never had the trans fat free or maple top ones. If I had the time I'd make up hot cocoa and or coffee and soak the vanilla or marble cake in it. Ensures everything is moist and warm. Lemon poppyseed and applesauce I'd just eat straight or could mix in if I got a fruit like pineapple. Good stuff!

Hey guys, a very different and entertaining video. Looks like Me Ancient is getting his sweet tooth, taken care of, by all those cakes! LOL! I was wondering how good the apple spice cake would be, I'm not surprised that it was one of the favorites. So wonderful to hear about your understanding of the covenant between God and man, concerning the rainbow. This may not go over well with some non-believers, but, did you know that the covenant rainbow has 7 colors in it? Seven being the number for God showing His completeness of His Creation. The "other" rainbow, (if you know what I'm talking about), has only 6 colors. Six being the number of man, showing our incompleteness, without God in our lives. The color that's missing in the rainbow that's only got 6 colors, is indigo. This is the color representing holiness, purity, praise, and deliverance. I don't believe that this color is missing by accident, since the "other" rainbow, stands for things that are an abomination to God. Pride, arrogance, rebellion, self dependency, sinful ways of living, and so on. Should be interesting to hear what the mockers and scoffers say about this comment. Looking forward to more, God bless guys.
