I’ve watched a lot of his videos, he does a good job. I especially like when he reviews modern MREs from around the world. But I can tell you from personal experience, despite what he says, MREs are not very good tasting. I think the C rations back in my day were much better. Plus, they came with cigarettes!

"Plus, they came with cigarettes!"

I did a lot of travelling in South Korea back in the 1950s with a Korean captain. We were given C-rations and told not to eat the local food. Our first stop in Seoul was selling them on the black market. It was the American cigarettes the Koreans wanted.
