Army Ration Pack vs Civilian MREs - TASTE TEST 

Came for the review, stayed for the sheep

Loved seeing Janine in this video, laughed out loud when she caught turning the plate of Tea food around 😂. These are a really good watch and the sheep were attracted by the smells 🤣🤣

Superb content Ste - Five stars to Janine!! - Dude you married way above your level with her!

Janine should definitely be in more videos if she is up for it, the more casual/lighter hearted approach against Ste's serious and logic driven mind is hilarious

"Stay at the front. DONT go to the back!" Said every woman ever! Had me fookin creasing! 😂😂😂😂

Props to the entertaining Janine IRL channel! BTW no wonder army packs are cheaper if that's what they call 'Hunter's chicken' 😂

17:42 - Janice's reaction 😂😂😂😂😂

dont forget the all important grab bag, your boilies and mint caked and chocolate and anything else that takes your fancy in a plastic bag in your smock pocket for on the move. i bought a equivalent from a camping shop and cost £12 and was half as good in energy and taste. So all in all ration packs for the win and beans and sausages and chocolate pudding the kings of the packs IMO.

This just popped up, good stuff you two.

Mrs Howson has to be in more of IRL videos.... Sorry Ste you've never had peas with a chicken roast dinner?

Absolutely love this 😆🫣🤣🤣

6:00 in the words of Ash Williams "Pause"

Big up Mr. , and Mrs Howsen. I really like your hiking videos on this channel, I am a US resident and hike a lot, have you ever considered making a video on using a compass, reading an actual map, and plotting coordinates? These are very popular subjects, and by watching few channels, I learned how to read a map, and plot coordinates and find my location if lost 😊 I would love seeing you making a video about it! Cheers my friend 🙏🏼👏

They have Old El Paso sauce in the UK

This is the best!! I literally smiled and laughed out loud through the whole video….. thank you so much for the lift!!

Did you see the Times today? "Are you ready for a crisis? Government says stock up for three days" You might have to teach everyone how to be a prepper lmao

Really enjoying the IRL channel. keep up the great videos!

Honestly i had forgotten you asked for MRE's, feels like months ago. But this was a really good surprise

No Kendall Mint Cake? That stuff is rocket fuel and waterproof 😂. Funny video, props to Janine, perfect foil for Ste. Good stuff.

The duo we never knew we needed 😂

Was good seeing janine involved in this , gave it a different feel: would be good to see more of her on this other than floating in the background, obviously it’s not possible in a car review, or when your both powering up a mountain. But you’re clearly in the same wavelength humour wise , so would be good to see you two bounce back and forth off each other .

You two are brilliant on camera together

Janine is adorable and really funny!! Ste "Nobody like a sad sausage"!! 😂😂😂 You two suit each other so much.

Great video again Ste. The bants between the pair of you was great. As a southerner, listening to you two talk, was just great... Very entertaining... I smiled all the way through!! Get the missus in more often... the pair of you are great!!

Any woman that can put up with Ste’s antics & banter is probably a saint. Good choice, Ste 😆💪🏾

So funny, Janine needs her own show😂😂…nice1 Ste definitely a forces win👍🏻

Absolutely love this video! 😂 Important question! Where are Janine's trousers from? They. look fab! ❤

Great content Janine is a natural at presenting and the sheep were brilliant.

Mrs Howson is sound. You’ve done well there, Ste!

This was fun, watched this while eating my breakfast lol In the future maybe you could go a bit into macro breakdown, what you need/dont need etc.

Good stuff!

Wasn’t Sad Sausage & the Runny Oats a psychedelic pop band in the late 60’s?

Great video!! You both have comedy

These videos are just the best. Well done Mr & Mrs Howson. Enjoyed every minute.

Bravo to the both of you. Great vid really interesting.

Great video ste. Loving this new channel and a look at howson away from the pain and stress of united.

Cheers. This was a fun vid and informative too. Well done guys

Quality vid Ste nice to see Janine involved also. Soldier packs looked decent

Top video guys battle of the sick 😂

Really enjoyed this well done Janine. During my financial trouble in my early 20s, army MREs helped me survive. You learn to love them after awhile😅

"what peasant shit is this ? " lol haha dear lord, Ste, its almost like you didnt like it mate ??

I enjoyed watching this guy's really good.

The tiny jars of Tabasco in the MRE packs was mint, made every meal edible.

You're a fucking legend Ste. Shoutout from Toronto

Wicked content 👍

Funny this, good banter all round 😂

M&S? Someone's doing well 😂

That wasn't battle of the sick - one came out one end and one came out the other 🤣🤣🤣

Takes a brave man to slap his Mrs' Victoria Sponge like that! Ive never actually thought of ration packs when we go camping, maybe thats why it feels weird barbqueing sausages at 7am?

My Dad always took his own spice mix for his ration packs in the army. For years I used to drink the powdered lemon drink and hammer the Garibaldi biscuits as a kid😂 Army rations win for nostalgia alone👍

The howsons !!

As an army brat i used to love when my Dad brought rations home. Eating the oatmeal biscuits and that 😂

Lol Ste face when telling us it was over 90 pounds lol hehe

Definitely a fan of the Army ration packs, but the hot chocolate is a disappointment. Boil in bag food, defo eat from the bag. Less washing up and less opportunity to see what it looks like. Feel like the spork shouldn't be included in the army pack as it should be part of regular reused kit.

Loved it Ste! Having Janine on made you seem human 😂❤️

Brilliant 👏👏 Great banter obviously

Haha this is a good video Being an ex soldier civvi MREs are miles better and im out every week wild camping

Ah isn't she precious....lol. Those Summit meals are rank. Ration pack wins for me and that's terrible. I make my own ration packs - but cheat, i use the drinks packs from the ration packs for cold drinks or those wee Robinson's cordial concentrates. I cook food, dehydrate it and store in the freezer - additive free. I use snacks i get like brunch bars 3 for a £1 from a local shop, I add a bag of nuts £1.69 Aldi to soft fruit packs Aldi £1.39 that lasts more than one meal. Yorkshire Tea, 3-in-1 Coffee on the go but real coffee at camp. As I use my bike to camp from most of the time I can take a few bits I like for comfort more than food as there's a good chance fish n chips or a pub meal will be on the cards - NEVER at Blackpool! There's a top pub in Chipping near Longridge called Tillotson's Arms - The Sunday Lunch is a challenge even for a fat knacker like me. In Longridge the Stonebridge Chippie is excellent and always packed. The Pendle Inn at Barley serves good beer but I don't think they do food anymore. I'm off to somewhere near Lakes this weekend. Have a gudden love yer videos.

Not as bad as the chickpea curry in the Army MRE packs has to be the worst pack ever.

Should have got a rat pack from the early 2000s. Nothing beats sausage and beans. But breaking down 72 hours in your bergen with everything else was brutal.

on the tea ste you can see the wife really not liking what she picked up aww poor wee woman nice to see u both doing adventure stuff

Italian, Turkish, Pakistani MRE's would be interesting, also, looking forward to the video you promised on how to read a map

If I ever get given a mushroom omelette again in my life I will break down and cry. Not again. Ever.

Love this!

To be fair I could listen to Ste talk about the differences in various wallpaper pastes, but this was MINT

Loved the video... Millitary Food Looks pretty good for rations... As a student living alone if I had those rations I'm living the good life

Top this. 👌

Ste might you have a link to the folding chairs you have? They look smashing

Always nice to J9… it gonna be renamed at home with the howsons soon

Enjoyed the video guys. Entertaining and informative, some of that stuff looked disgusting but beggars can’t be choosers 👍

Great to see Janine in t his video Ste, great work both. Not sure about jam if i am honest ?? whyyyyyyyyyyyyy ???

Nah those Thai style soups were top tier

The army peanuts taste like Paint Thinner

Stick the vicci sponge in with the army ration pack and that's the winner! Looks ace where you are there, can I ask where it is? Did you take the Landy? Look forward to these videos Ste, takes the mind off the football!

Wonder what the nutritional value compare

Good video mate, where are the chairs with the side tables from please?

Ste can I do a video looking at other army ration packs. Eu, USA, Russian, Ukraine maybe

I did a review on the hunters chicken rat pack on one of my videos 😂😂😂😂😂😂

What happened to cheap snacks for in the pack, salted nuts, haribo and dried fruits…. Backed up with the meals.

You gotta try US mres they are actually really good

Top bloke top gal top video keep it up ste lad

£95 .00 wow proper money 💰.

Absolutely no chemistry between these two presenters. Joke. Janine for the win! Keep her around 😂

The military one definitely looked better.

Where’s the screech gone, and the cheese possessed. Will see if I can get hold of the new RAT packs down under

Ste beaten by a stew😂

Are you even a wild camper if you dont own rev race pants 😅

Must say Ste, Janine's accent is more a thicker Manc than yours, is it a Location thing?

M&S, not the cheapest option for camping food! Do you not measure the amount of HOT water to add? Was entertaining though!

Should have got the missus to only spend £15 and see what she could get 😂

Remember guys buying british MREs is taking food away from our soldiers ( i mean its already on sale on ebay so yeah i know)

cmiiw did they give cigarettes in military rations back in the good ol days?

Jesus how many things does she have in that tiny bag?

may as well order a chinese a 100quid ration pack lmao take that poor lady out for proper meal after making her endure that food torture🤮

The gum is laxative

Better than Richard and Judy

Some stuff you should not be watching when you're eating.

Not a fan of you on paddock but this is actually decent. You seem like a different person on here
