First, Semper Fi. My brother ssgt USMC (Passed last year 48yo) would always say its key to mix and match. They were a form of currency in the "sandbox" i.e. Iraq and Afghanistan. He remembered MREs from the 90s from 1st gulf war that were still being consumed in like 95-97. Would even "gift" me some. Thank you for doing these reviews, and more notably for your service in the Corps. I didnt see if you did a German MRE yet, they are I'm told on the higher end of quality of the NATO nations. -Jonathan

Hello From Toronto Canada

Hey guys, glad to see another great video from you both. That older cheese spread looked very grainy, I'm surprised that it was still edible. The rice bar looked good, almost like one of those chewy type of granola bars. Your story of the cold water shower reminded me of in my youth, on the farm, we had a deep well for the livestock. In the hot days of August, you could put your wrists under that freezing water, and in about 1 minute, you could feel your whole body cooling off, due to the circulation, of the cooled blood under the water flow. Once again, great to see you both, enjoying Gods' creation. God bless.

They are so spoiled nowadays. During my time in the Army (96-99) there was nothing gourmet about our MREs. In fact, the only good ones were beef stew and bbq pork and rice. The rest were barely edible. And you could probably get a guy to trade you his car for a cheese packet due to how scarce they were. But you know what? I freakin love it!!!
