I am dutch and the rations have improved the last few years. The ration you reviewed is not the "standard" ration, but rather the largest one. I believe these are for extra heavy duty like arctic duty are simular. The standard ration has two hot meals, two packages of muesli/porrage and two packages of crackers. And one pack with nuts, beef jerky, soups, drinks, protein drinks ect ect. Normally it does not include the dried pastas, cookies, cake, extra pack of nuts, ect. The hot meals in the normal ration are great compared to what we used to have. They are so good that I rarely bring my own food with me these days. A few years ago a standard grunt would life of noodle-soup he brought along. These days the rations are so good, we actually eat this stuf :)

This is a brute of a ration, comparable in size to the Australian CR1M. The sheer variety of goodies in this would make it a joy to eat rather than a chore for mere caloric intake. And lots of snacking options outside of structured meals. I'm interested in seeing what the other ration options have in them. Dutch cocoa powder is the duck's nuts! (An Aussie expression meaning great or the best.) Making it on milk and/or cream instead of water is even better. I'd be interested in finding out how much of a foreign income earner OrifO is for the Danish economy. Their products appear in so many western European military ration packs. Proper black liquorice/licorice can potentially lead to or exacerbate hypertension/high blood pressure and heart arrhythmia. And watch out that it's not salted licorice. The Scandinavians consume it by the truckload and the Dutch aren't that far behind them! It's an acquired taste, but I grew up with it as a kid. Liquorice contains liquorice root, not star anise- they are unrelated to one another. Vitamin D3 is probably there if this is more of a winter than a summer ration. We don't get the D vitamins through our diet; we make them by exposing our skin to sunlight, which will be a problem in winter. Negro and other dark-skinned peoples living in the northern hemisphere are significantly more likely to suffer from Vitamin D deficiency than Caucasians. It's believed that the original humans in Africa were "black" and our European ancestor's skin lightened through evolutionary pressure when they moved through Asia and into western and eastern Europe so that we could make sufficient Vitamin D. Vitamin D was also postulated as helping our body cope with Covid-19 or that you were more likely to suffer worse consequences if you were Vitamin D deficient. That curry looks more Indonesian than Indian. If the pâté is more generic pork meat than liver, that black cherry jam would be nice on top. Cashews are a bit special over bog-standard peanuts. Nice! Nice review as always, guys.

Жыл бұрын
It varies. Some US MREs were self heating. A plastic envelope with a magnesium compound in it had water added to it. It then became insanely hot. A metal foil pouch with the food put into the water would heat up quickly. European armies may have done or do this, but the common way is to heat water in a small pot or metal canteen cup using a "Sterno" type fuel. Esbit tablets are far and away the most common. In some armies a little Esbit stove is issued to the soldier, in others a flimsy little version is put in the ration pack along with the tabs.

The thought of that reminded me of living in the South of the US many years ago. I was unfamiliar with grits, a staple of the Southern breakfast. They are made from ground parched corn, and are bland, even with butter on them. I was looking at my grits in a restaurant one morning, and I grabbed a little tub of strawberry jam (for use on toast). I stirred it in and it was good. I never ate grits without doing that again. My practice absolutely horrified the Southerners, lol.

This looks epic. I'd love to try that lemon cake. Great review guys.
I absolutely adore a good tuna sandwich. I’d love to try that tuna.
I doubt the licorice you had was made of star anise it was actually licorice since it was from Europe. The eat real licorice from licorice root not what Americans think licorice is. I know this first hand because when I was a kid we had a German exchange student in my home town and he got regular shipment of real licorice from his family in Germany.

People here in the USA chew licorice root, but it is not common. There was a pitcher for the Chicago Cubs some years ago who wore a necklace of bear claws or teeth and chewed licorice root incessantly, the way some chewed tobacco.
I think the black cherry jam would be great mixed in with that plain muesli

The thought of that reminded me of living in the South of the US many years ago. I was unfamiliar with grits, a staple of the Southern breakfast. They are made from ground parched corn, and are bland, even with butter on them. I was looking at my grits in a restaurant one morning, and I grabbed a little tub of strawberry jam (for use on toast). I stirred it in and it was good. I never ate grits without doing that again. My practice absolutely horrified the Southerners, lol.

Excellent job Nathan. Been watching your vids since the beginning and I gotta say this is my favorite. What a wide variety of items and tastes. Lemon , chocolate, cashews, black cherry , curry and even licorice ! I've been eating mre s since about 1981 and I've never had any with any licorice related items. Really nice work guys, stay safe.

Nice work tim
honestly i would be able to last even longer then that with that much food
Always interested in seeing new rations
The Dutch rations are in the top 3 best rations in the world in my opinion
I love the fact that pasta dishes are in more dry rations than rice. I think it is much harder to mass produce rice
As always a great review

Yay!
The licorice "Stick" looks like Mike and Ike's
didnt realize where you live pretty close to where i stay. i like to go to stonies from time to time. i like the mre videos
Usa rations need to go take some classes from whoever makes this ration I could eat 2-3 days off this lol Nice for soldiers Usa troops would freak out on this
There are lines on the side of the bag (Black line) to where to putt the water in.
Looks like 2 of those could last a person a week . That's a lot of food .

Would you like some food with your drinks
Liquorice is bad for your blood pressure if you take too much
..i'm late for snacks,...lol...bon appetite
What do you do with all of the uneaten food?
did it say Hühnersuppe or kippensoep?
its all sugars no fats. sure it looks nice at first glance but the drinks wont keep you warm on a march. the soups are nice tho. 3x coffee typical dutch to drink a lot of that. what is the total calorie of this? i dont think it will be all that much. its a nice snack pack.

its not meant for a march (and even then you still need to drink a lot on a march anyway) but for on a temporarily military camp (bivak) as it's a 24 hours ration, I personally know the ones from the 80's and those had great stuff in it but often too few drinks, the calories in this one it is around 5300 kcal enough for a day of hard work.
