This War Ration is not expired. It is said to last a long time, or it's an Experimental one so that soldiers can eat it till the present day.

I guess if the enemy didn't kill you, opening that can would

showed this to my WW2 great great gran dad, and he said he wouldn't eat one when he was in the service in 45

The good thing about this 70 year old field ratio is, that the radioactive pollution is much lower, than the fresh food you can eat today. After all the nuclear tests and nuclear power plant disasters that happened after 1942. So, from this perspective, this food is very healthy.

That was actually pretty cool. It's neat to see how long preserved food can last and still be edible, even though it may not taste very good. Thanks for the video, henry gilman.

I would never open the ration can. this guy tears into like it's a great bag from the local candy store. Give it some respect bro. it's antique.

I completely support this guy eating this, it makes us appreciate history and what our men went through

I was impressed by how new and shiny the inside of the can looked after more than 70 years. I suppose back then, cans were made to last.

First video where someone doesn't act so cringe worth trying to be dramatic cause they're grossed out. Most honest ration review, (It's 70 years old of course it's gonna taste like shit!)

Hard core dude. None of the other reviewers ever eat the old stuff. Hats off to you.

wait you forgot to say how the can tasted

If I were blind listening to this I would think this is Tobey MacGuire's channel.

Awesome ! You taste the history.

you could eat those rations 3000 years from now, thats the magic of canned food

Maybe the key inside was supposed to work for some kind of buddy system. Like a few guys open up their cans brutally and then they pass on their key inside to a buddy who needs it, and then it goes on with that persons key inside for someone else and so on.

Extra keys were put in there to carry on you. As you saw the key was missing from that ration.

Fascinating. Thanks for posting this!

He made a good point about the keys being inside of the can. Doesn't really help with opening the can. The only thing you could do is put the keys into your pocket to use on the next can. But that still would not help to get the first can open. Too funny.

@gulfwindsrealty

The "keys" are a one time use item. Once you've opened a can, all of the metal is wound around the key tightly. There was a key originally on the exterior of each can.

This just goes to show how society was back then. It has two keys inside because if you really had to open the first one by force or by bayonet, you had one key to keep, and one to give to the guy beside you. Also, I was hoping so hard you had a pack with smokes in it. That would rock so hard.

I was going through my emergency stocks of tinned goods last night and decided to treat the kids to a tin of Hampers chilli corned beef incorporated into a hash. There was a tin of original but it had puffed up like a cane toad so declined to sample that one. Kids enjoyed it until I informed them that it was made from lips and arseholes. I'll trundle out the tin of lamb tongues at a later date. ;-)

Chromosomes or not, let a 70 year old ration be the great equalizer

one of those videos where the quesiton "did he die?" be legit to say

you have guts bro. i respect you big time

I love how you insist on consuming it

That was a very cool video! Greetings from Arizona.

This was actually only the b-unit of a c-ration, you're missing the rest of it that.. dear god I wouldn't eat the rest if you find it.

I love his reaction to the coffee... then he takes another sip 😂😂😂

Awesome video man!

Hats off to you my friend for having the balls to eat that! To all those saying this is some rare artifact of american history you can buy these all day long for around $20 on ebay.

One of my top five favorite youtube videos.

I think the guy with the camera decided to get his friend drunk and convince him to eat grandpas old ration can

They would have used the can opener on their knife to open it,the key and strip is to turn the can into a coffee cup.

You are the bravest man I've ever seen

Sir...you're part of WWII history since then...Hail Ol' RATION XD

Eats it and becomes the last casualty of WW2

That would probably have been worth money

thanks for the nice video!!! you have a sense of adventure!

Good to know that at least the candy still has its flavor intact LOL

He may not be a smart man, but he knows what love IS...

THATS OLDER THAN MY GRANDPA

You are a trip! I salute your courage!

and then he releases its actually a shoe cleaning kit consisting of shoe polish and circle sponges

the way the dude was opening the can by pulling at the strip of tin made me anxious and unsettled. That thing could cut really bad.

God damn, people are assholes in this comment section, cool review dude.

He kinda sounds like the guy from rick and morty when they watch the tv shows and the guy with personal space problems comes up.

Mmmm...MOLD

omg somebody prep the Pepto!!! U sir are WAY WAY braver then i am!

He's enjoying that but it will probably be his last meal

Great video! I'd eat that and drink the coffee in a second if I were cold and hungry on Normandy Beach.

I really hope you weren't intending to make fun of this guy when filming this....

You are a very Brave guy.

I know a guy who has several pieces of civil war hardtack. He ate one of them and said it tasted like cardboard.

You are a brave man sir!

That looks like candy I would find in my grandmothers home, I'm no longer eating them. 😳

A very solid and sealed can.

Am I the only one who kept wishing he'd take the can off the plate while he was opening it?

Turned into the Hulk.

that stuff actually looked pretty good.

you must have a serious case of the munchies lol

when I see that dudes face in the video it reminds me of my happy child hood

that is the dessert can! you have 4 cans in a full meal so you missing 3 of them for a full meal.

Each ball of coffee you see is for about 1 cup. So he added enough coffee for about 10 cups of coffee in to one cup of water... And on top of that, it's fricken old

I'm really curious on how the candy tasted. I wonder if you can still find these.

i want to saw a man eating a chopped ham and eggs or anny canned meat from k-ration soon.

This dude is hard. fucking. core. this is some shit we'd pull back in the old neighborhood when we had no food. this dude looks like he's got money. goddamn.

very chill dood

Let's be honest we would all eat that if we were desperate and had nothing else.

that's crazy, it's good as new

I had a p38 opener till some corrupt cop stole it off my key chain

This guy is one of the biggest myth's i've ever seen

Ive always wondered if you could do this if needed like if there was an Apocalypse lol

I can well remember eating the during my time in the Military from 1964 thru 1987. I even experienced testing some of the K rations from WW II and Korea era. C rats were pretty good and I keep a case even after I retired and ate them when I went \hunting or fishing. I must admit the rats are so much better thought.
