The tooth brush has "tooth paste" concentrate bonded on the brush fibers, so you just need to dip it in water and go for it
Thank you for keeping me company through these long, sleepless nights. Love the channel!

Tubby pig There's quite a few nice U.S. MRE's. Southwest Beef Black Beans, Beef Shredded BBQ are a couple of my favourites. The only one I'd steer clear of would be Pork Sausage with Gravy (personally).
Probably one of the most luxurious meal rations out there.

Rodney Montague It is indeed, I was just told that the toothbrush actually contains the toothpaste too, so they really gilded the lily here.
After watching all of your videos, i found out something interesting: Only in the german and the skandinavian MREs there is bread in it, even whole grain bread. In every other MRE there are just cookies and biscuits, white flour biscuits even, i guess. But not only is whole grain bread more healthier and more nutrionous, but it also fills up pretty good. Perfect for a soldier i would guess.

Thomas Cohnen I agree. Though Rye bread is probably not to everyone's taste, I think it's the perfect healthy bread product to include in rations.
Hey, that bread looks very familiar to me :) What a coincidence! The Danish BUKO cream cheese is available in every German supermarket. The brand's biggest rival is Philadelphia from KRAFT (now called Mondelez). And interestingly, the matches are from Germany. Google tells me that "Zündholz Riesa" is the name of the company but Riesa is also the name of the East German town where the company resides.

a_spoonman An inspired move putting those packs of Rye bread into rations. I think they should be the standard bread product in all rations as opposed to some of the chemically supercharged attempts contained in others. Plus the photos on the packets are great! Lol.
@KarimTheilgaard

Kiwi Dude I suspect the reason for the German matches and rye bread is that it is cheaper than the Danish equivalents. However, German rye bread tends to be more plain and drys compared to typical Danish rye bread, which often contains more grains and seeds.

Kiwi Dude I've learned the hard way that blackened here means thats what your tongue will look like after you eat it. and at any restaraunt to make sure of what they are seasoning it with because everyone cooks with cayenne and thinks its mild
The toothpaste is dried inside the tootbrush
It's got something else in, compared to when I was a child and the military had open house and you could try their field rations.

Those sporks are in the British rations now and it's so difficult to eat the bits right at the bottom, plus there's a weird lip on the sides that traps food. Quite a messy eating utensil to be perfectly honest.

There are several, the largest being "Tordenskjold", named after the Dano-Norwegian naval hero. I just expect the German matches are probably cheaper. The same is most likely the case with the rye bread, which is also German and is relatively dry and plain compared to more typical Danish rye bread, that tends to contain more grains and seeds.

Kiwi Dude It is kinda lucky for you that you got to taste it. There is actually a law that forbids the bread to leave the country. But as you might have already discovered, some people do not really care about that. The danish rations are also illegal for civilians to have, soo.

Rugbrød (rye bread) in Denmark usually comes in larger packets lasting for a week or so. Some sliced and some as a whole bread. Those prepackaged small ones seem to be German for the most part. Rugbrød is a big part of Danish life though. Our "smørrebrød" (Google it) is basically just pimped out rugbrød. Usually people will eat much simpler stuff than that. It'll just be bread with some sort of meat or pate on it. Maybe with eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers etc. as well. Nothing nearly as fancy as the smørrebrød you usually see. :) No idea what The Red Gamer below is talking about though. Looks like trolling to me. People almost always bring rugbrød if they're going on a trip. It leaves the country all the fucking time and I've never heard anything about that being talked about. Sounds like some sort of urban legend or something. Bring all the bread you want. lol

+dharkbizkit Normally you'd sort out what you think you'll eat, put it in the clear plastic bag instead of the box and toss the rest. Now in the old Danish ones you'd have 2 equally sized boxes (because they contained canned food instead of freeze dried) plus a loaf of pre-cut rye-bread that couldn't be separated into individual slices without ripping the whole thing into tiny pieces and which only function was to be used to hammer in nails etc.
no toothpaste?

Extremely excessive amount of crap for 1 daily ration in my opinion. I hope the Danish aren't paying too much taxes for these.
That is NOT what we got in the danish military in 2004.. At all. By far. Maybe they changed it since then, I really hope so.. "Makrelguf" (yummy mackarel) is the most horrible thing I have ever encountered in a can.

Kiwi Dude If I remember correctly, we got 1 cardboard box & 1 can. It contained: 6 slices of rye bread 5 crackers Paté Toothbrush Toothpick Jam Fish-spread (BLEGH!) Cheese-spread Spoon Chocolate bar Protein bar Dextrose tablets Energy drink powder Fruit porridge Hot cocoa powder Tea Coffee Wet wipe Rice Raisins Chewing gum Sugar Salt Pepper Ketchup They somehow managed to fit it into a very small box, approx. 20x10x15cm. The can wasn't actually in the box, but was handed out with them. The contents of the can was usually either a bizarre Bolognese sauce made from pork, chili con carne, chicken in curry, whole minced beef-patties in gravy, or the dreaded "veal in curry" which consisted of weird gelatinous perfectly-square cubes of "veal". Horror.
