2016 Brazilian Navy 24 Hour MRE Ration Alternative Combat (RAC) Review Meal Ready to Eat Taste Test 

Him: “ puts water in the farinha “ Me: Nooooooooooooooooo!!

13:47 *Obi Wan:* I felt a great disturbance in the force, as if millions of Brazilians suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

He: **Puts water in the Mandioca flour** Me: *_So you've chosen death_*

As a non-Brazilian, at least now I know what _not_ to do with the farinha if I'm ever eating in the presence of Brazilians.

That candy with a yellow cover is called "rapadura" which is literally just a raw sugar brick from the sugar cane.

Hey Steve! Breakfast: 1- The breakfast is light on contents, because Brazilians usually ate very little on breakfast, a sandwich, maybe some fruit and definitely coffee, breakfast translate to "morning coffee" here. 2 - The breakfast candy taste like molasses because "rapadura" is basically hardened molasses. Lunch: 1 - The "farinha de mandioca" was supposed to be mixed with the rice and beans. Some people prefer their rice and beans dryer, the cassava flour does a good job sucking the food juices and creating almost a puree. It's really good with roasted meat juices, making a alternative to gravy. Considering the amount they sent, you could have mixed it with the beans and forgone the rice. 2 - The sausages are called "linguiça calabresa" it's usually lean, hot with peeper and smoked. It's traditionally cooked with beans, as they really give the beans a spiced smokey flavour. Dinner: 1 - The juice was supposed to taste like grape, but for me the local powdered grape juice always tasted purple. 2 - Who the hell put that hot dog sausages in a meal? And where they found those giant mutated ones? 3 - The candies are the same as sugared gummy bears. Supper: 1 - Guava jam is a traditional jam here, the breakfast jam was probably chemically flavoured, but this one is almost certainly natural. Notes: 1 - Everything sweet was made with cane sugar, it is way cheaper than HFCS here in Brazil. 2 - Sadly, the coconut bars are coconut flavoured rice crispy bars with chocolate. Pretty cheap, 4 US dollars a dozen. 3 - If you get your hands in another Brazilian ration, and need some help, I can help.

Mais um episódio de: "vídeos feitos por estrangeiros sobre o Brasil que só brasileiros assistem"

I love how Steve is so likable that even an entire nation can’t get mad at the dude.

Title: Brazilian Every single citizen of Brazil: WHO HAS SUMMONED THE ANCIENT ONE?

*Puts beans on top of rice* "Thats the standard way to do it." Me: Hmmmm, i see you are a man of culture as well, very good.

Vou entrar pra marinha, tem mais comida nesse saco do que na minha casa

It's been 3 years, I still cry for the farinha.

*Puts water on the flour* Me: Wait *. . .* thats illegal.

It's official, a non-brazilian cannot eat brazilian food without the presence of a brazilian

Curious fact: There was a worker's riot, on Ford's factory in Brazil when the US executives removed this "Farinha" from the menu of the factory's restaurant

Steve: pours water over the farina Brazilians: NOOOOOO Me, in tears: HE'S DOING HIS BEST, LEAVE HIM ALONE!

It hurts a lot to see what he did with the Mandioca Flour.

That candy in the breakfast is "rapadura", a very traditional brazilian candy made from sugar cane. It's essentially hardened molasses, some people use it to sweeten their coffee. Also, we generally eat the cassava flour with the beans, not with water! (although that's a little too much for that amount of beans) hahaha Awesome to see a ration from my country! Cheers

adoro a quantidade de brasileiro nos comentários surtando por causa da farinha

Dude gets to learn so much about cultures just by eating MREs

q porra foi essa que ele fez com a farinha KKKKKKKKKKJ

O CARA LITERALMENTE INVENTOU O PIRÃO COM A FARINHA DE MANDIOCA GÊNIO EU TE AMO STEVE

youtubers: says brazil in title brasileiros: UAU INCRÍVEL

Him: "Rapadurinha is a jelly" My teeth: NOOOOOOOOOO

O exercito toma tang com torrada mano kkk

"this is just carbohydrates and coffee" well you just described almost all Brazilian food

O doidão comendo farinha com água e elogiando igual Repórter da globo comendo espetinho de gato na tv

him: *puts water in the farinha* *breaking news: suicide rate among Brazilians increases by 68%*

Steve: i guess these are little fruit jelly bars. Rapadurinha: am i a joke to you?!

Steve: pours water on the farinha My little amazon heart: *pain and disgust*

Homem de cultura, não somente colocou o feijão sobre o arroz, como também fez um pirão d'água. Basicamente, o nosso amigo comeu como um paranaense.

Eu nunca senti uma gota de patriotismo no meu coração, mas ver ele colocar água na farinha me doeu de formas que eu não consigo expressar.

well, people said you ate the Cassava flour the wrong way, indeed it was supossed to be eaten it with the beans, but if you put boiled water in it you just make an another brazilian meal, the Pirão, so you just accidentaly discovered another meal ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Esse é macho mesmo, comeu água com farinha e ainda elogiou kkkkkkkkk

13:46 , as a brazilian my eyes bled

meu pai é fuzileiro reformado e quando meus irmãos e eu éramos crianças ele sempre trazia algumas dessas rações pra gente experimentar em casa, minha favorita era a que tinha espaguete e picadinho de carne kkkk era tudo até bem gostoso! eu também adorava montar o fogareiro e queimar álcool em gel, me sentia numa missão na mata kkkk bons tempos. morri com ele colocando água na farinha!!

That jelly bar is actualy Rapadura. It's a sugar cane candy. It's basically pure unrefined sugar. The porridge is manioc flower. You don't mix it with water, just add it to your meal by puting it on top of the rice and beans. It's one of the most tradicional foods from Brazil. Nice!

The best thing about 24 hr ration reviews is hearing, "Now let's get this out onto a tray. Nice" 3x

Steve, I suffer from intense anxiety; anxiety that even hardcore meds like benzodiazepines can't touch, but (oddly, and crazily enough) your MRE videos calm and relax me. Thank you so much for these videos. I've seen every last one :)

Everyone commenting about how he mixed farinha with water. Honestly, I'm just glad he didn't pour it on the coffee

"sabor uva" *oh, Yeah! That's a cherry*

I carried Rapadurinha in all of my emergency ration kits when I lived in Brazil. Huge energy boost. It is the first product made when sugar cane juice is boiled down and solidified.

Essa farinha possui todos os nutrientes necessários para que os combatentes brasileiros cumpram a missão, ou seja, arrumar camas/varrer/passar/encerar e preparar a mesa para um jantar à francesa por horas a fio. Esplêndido.

My father is a Brazilian Marine and he says it's correct to mix farinha on water. You can add the sugar rapadura to it too to sustain you in the field.

For those interested in knowing more about the foods: Rice n beans its the basis of the lunch in Brazil and eaten at a daily basis for 99% of the population (it contains all necessary amino acids not produced by the human body btw), the manioc flour is to be eaten mostly atop of the beans (dry) and is also very consumed, specially by the lower classes. Also the rapadura is a tradicional and very healthy sweet tradicional to the northeast of Brazil and is very rich in minerals and energy. It was intended to be eaten alone out of the proper meal (just like the fruit bars).

When i saw him putting water on farinha my brazilian soul just died

Steve: "This is definitely some sort of porridge!" Brazil: "So you've chosen war, then."

I love that he never short changes the enthusiasm on "okay let's get this out onto a tray... Nice!"

You're the "Bob Ross" of MRE videos.

Faz 5 mês que o yt tá me recomendando saporra. Acho q n ia parar enquanto n assistisse. Caraio

Literally everyone in my house stopped to see you adding water to farinha and they're all horrified

To anyone curious for the “fruit bar” which was in the breakfast, rapadurinha is like little rapadura which is essentially, from my American’s perspective, basically hard brown sugar. It’s like a mini brick (usually sold in bigger brick sizes) of almost completely sugar with a molasses or brown sugar flavor. It’s pretty cheap and so it’s a cheap “desert or sweet” you can find in most grocery stores in Brazil as far as I’m aware…

Oh boy, he just damaged the whole brazilian cuisine culture by pouring water on the cassava flour. Its meant to use the on top of the beans and rice to make the food more "rich".

Also Brazilian sausage and American sausage are two different things, Your sausage is what we would call "Linguiça", while your hotdog sausages is called "Salsicha"

The alcohol gel is also to "wash your hands". The dry bread is to be eaten with the jelly. Yep, not enough!!! Haha!!! Farinha is to be eaten with the beans. You gotta hit those up, man. Other wise no taste! Haha! Again, for the dinner you would be much happier if you could heat up the rice and sausage. Taste is way much better... Those packages are perfect for each of the meals and it won't fill you up to the point you are heavy to continue combat or training. yet you will be strong to carry everything up to the next meal. The Brazilians eat light breakfast and heavy lunch. Thanks for the video!

Ração de feijoada é pra quando situação está desesperadora, aí os marinheiros são convertidos em homens-bomba e lançados contra o inimigo 🤣🤣

Você tá assistindo e ve ele colocando água na farinha e fica tipo, "NÃO FAZ ISSO MANO, POR FAVOR".

the farinha is mixed with the beans to give consistency and facilitate eating with a spoon or fork on a ship swinging between the waves and for the soldiers in combat its easier to eat something solid than a "soup"

Literally no one: ". " Steve: "Ohhh wow!"

Every Brazilian person should watch this vídeo. It's nice how Steve loves everything he's eating. Bro even mixed water into the farinha and nobody hates him for that.

That molasses bar is called rapadura, it has high iron content, in poorer regions its given to kids as candy so they don't die from malnutrition. Essentially its a molasses power bar. And yeah you don't put farinha with water, you eat it by putting over the food, as if it was a seasoning or a sauce (powder-sauce).

Brazilians: "WTF IS HE DOING, WITH THE FARINHA" STEVE: X I B É

Very nice video. You shouldn't pour water on the farinha, because you just eat it dry over the beans. But all the rest was neat. If you want to try some "emergency foods" from Brazil, I can send you a package of our traditional meals. Just let me know. Thank you for the very nice video. I truly enjoy your work on this channel.

"Here's this stuff that looks like flour. Any sane person would think to dump raw flour in your food, right?"

I'll never get tired of him saying nice

These are the types of videos I watch when I procrastinate.

If you put brazil on the title, the comments will be flooded with brazilians, aproach with caution.

Gringo: come rapadura LITERALMENTE AÇÚCAR DERRETIDO RESFRIADO Gringo denovo: inovador

"Slightly gelatinous rice"... ~sees giant brick of slimy rice~

The “jelly bar” is a candy which is famous for breaking teeth

Congrats Steve... The beans go aways over the rice

Typically, any Americans that eat “cream of wheat” eats farina the way he did, by adding milk or water and a sweetener (sugar, honey, Splenda, etc). I was oblivious to the cultural significance. Glad to know how others do it.

Him: *water in farinha* Brazilian military: *breaks down the door*

Steve I started watching you a week ago I can not believe how many I have watched.I had a Heart Attack just over a year ago and a mini one five months ago and suffer from bad anxiety since when I have a panic attack if I watch you or Daz Black it seems to help love when you say alright let's get this on a tray your voice seems to relax me and I love the reviews. The only more I have tried was a meatball in red sauce I think from here in Canada where I live Thanks again and keep up the great work

I want to see a Hobbit 24-hour MRE. - Breakfast - Second Breakfast - Elevenses - Luncheon - Afternoon Tea - Dinner - Supper

O amigo colocou ÁGUA NA FARINHA, MEU DEUS DO CÉU! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Nossas culturas são, de fato, muito distintas.

I had those in the Navy here in Brazil as I was doing a 2 semester duty on Amazonas and the Port of Santos, the RAC 05 was my favorite, I was always trying to trade my rations because everyone there loved feijoada, and I hate it, I'm a garbanzo bean person. They'd be really glad to trade as they hated white beans. It was my nickname for a while: White beans.

the "farinha" is supposed to be eaten with the beans and rice farinha de mandioca is a kind of flour

Ele treme muito, ativou meu instinto de correr ou lutar, parece que me injetaram adrenalina, que isso

Steve. Mandioca(cassava) flour is consumed dry most of the time. There is another way of preparing mandioca flour in a dish called Pirão, which is basically mandioca flour with fish stock, which accompanies fish-based dishes. In the case of the MRE you could have put on the beans with sausage. Hug!

It's interesting how other countries eat their farinha. In Puerto Rico we kinda boil it with milk, sugar and cinnamon. Great sweet oatmeal-like breakfast

Finally a brazilian ration, nice!

damn your arms are vascular, opening all those MREs

the way you say nice is at this point iconic

I'm always afraid Steve might one day just drop the tray when he's holding it up while talking/eating in front of the camera lol 'Oh jeeeeez...'

Brazil is quite proud of their Tradicional Gastronomy. most of our recipes come from experimenting with other cultures. most dishes come with Rice by Default, so that is why it isn't listed. : P

This sausage is very popular here in Brazil, it is made with the best ingredients (papelão) By the company called O.W.M which means: weak meat operation

what's for breakfast? coffee & croutons what's for lunch? coffee , beans, rice and 1 and a half slices of kielbasa what's for dinner? coffee, rice and hot dogs what's for dessert? hot chocolate & croutons instructions: pour farinha on your beans, rice and 1 and a half slices of kielbasa, don't mix it with water. steve: ~mixes with water~ brazil: NOOOOOOOOOOOO! world: what the problem is? steve: fantastic mre, really enjoyed it. NICE.

45 seconds in and I've just gotta say: that's a sharp ass knife

13:50 krl mane olha o gringo colocando água na farinha

I use an adblocker normally but I disable it for Steve1989MREinfo!

After watching the last video of MRE showing brazilian food, I gotta say: he learned to use the farinha de mandioca in the meal XD

Imagine being Steve’s girlfriend and trying to get a snack probably MRE’S everywhere

kit alimentício padrão de hospital, exército e escola do brasil: rapadurinha e mandioca

came for the old food, stayed for the "nice!"

Why on earth did RU-vid recommend me a 5 year old Steve video? But hey, I'll gladly watch it again! Anything for Steve.

Farinha com água quente aqui no sul é conhecida como "Pirão d'água", geralmente comida com peixe assado

Your videos are always so peaceful. It puts me in a calm mood

Brazilians have such a strong o line presence l

Not at all surprised that picanha and beans & rice are menu options. I imagine a Brazilian soldier would be very happy with those choices. Thanks as always for these videos.
