4 different Hard Bread ration cans opened. The Hard Bread tins are over 100 years old.
First one is quite nice, another is perfectly preserved. Two others... you'll have to see for yourself. The Reserve Ration was used in WW1 and is what evolved to Field Ration Type C, which is the ration that eventually becomes the MRE, or Meal, Ready to Eat, Individual.
Exclusive shelf stable food history from beginning to end.
Filmed October 2019, February 2021, and December 2023.
Introducing the 1914 US Navy Emergency Ration and 1899 US Standard Emergency Ration in the latter part of this review. Stay tuned for more expensive, rare, and truly fascinating rations from the past.
A good portion of the Reserve Rations used in WW1 were shipped off to Poland after the war. Check out an exclusive photo at the end of the video showing this, and a ration dump with a whole bunch of canned salmon. Truly a fascinating look at not only the ration, but some really cool lost history in the photos as well.
Can 1 2:00
Can 2 14:01
Can 3 15:08
Can 4 27:43
Can 3 is by far the most amazing. They were vacuum sealed and perfectly preserved hard bread biscuits - much different and more palatable than the first tin's Sunshine hard tack. It turns into a true ration cooking show with a meal that is guaranteed to make you hungry. I sure was when preparing it, after a long day with very little food. It was a meal to remember!

As we can see here Steve carefully navigates the bugs, even when choosing among the hardtack to extract from the box he carefully selects the one with the smallest weevils on it. This is because Steve, being a wise man, knows you must always choose the lesser of two weevils.

My grandfather (about 1895-1970) was in the Cavalry with Blsck Jack Pershing chasing Pancho Villa through Mexico on horseback, and then he and his reserve buddies got shipped to France for WWI. He was very lucky in that he arrived near the tail end of the war. I can’t imagine what he would have thought seeing his rations on the telephone.

What amazes me with these types of videos (eating something from 1917) is that animals and those plants existed more than a century ago. It's piece of history that is most rare- everyday things people used, ate. We could read a recipie and try to recreate it with modern ingredients, but it would not be the same. Art, books are preserved, but this... food is used up and that's it. Good job for sharing it with us, Steve.

You don't have to use a filter for the coffee (old sock). Just put the grounds in the hot water, tap the cup to make the grounds sink as much as possible, and drink after 4 minutes.

@@insanitywolf5049 A little extra flavor you don't want? Stinky feet! I'm sure it was clean when he made it. Another way to make it is after you put the hot water over the grounds, crack an egg on top of the water. It will sink, taking the grounds with it. Then drink. Kind of like a homemade French press.

I saw an old guy on YT boil the grounds in the coffee pot, then pour a bit of cold water around over the grounds to make them sink. Then it's just a careful pour into the cup. I'm assuming it's a tricky skill, and also that you still get some grounds here and there in your cup ;)

Wow! What a great history lesson! Thank you Steve. Your knowledge and work are much appreciated! As I watched this video, I could imagine a soldier, tired and weary, at the end of long day or days, wanting the war to be over, so he could finally go home. He might have sat down, organized his meal and cook kit, and maybe read a letter from home, while waiting for a cup of water to boil so he could have some coffee, or tea, and heating up possibly the first meal “hot meal” he’s had time to make, and to just sit down and rest. In between stirring his meal and/or coffee, maybe he enjoys some tobacco, trying to calm his nerves and mind. Perhaps that moment is one of the few peaceful moments he had in a very long time. Their improvisation, experimentation, back then, is what lead to the modern life we have now. You never know if a wheel will work if you don’t round the edges and try it! Thank you to all who served and serve, for your service! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
