A double feature - the first half is British Royal Air Force rations from 1945. The Emergency Flying Ration Type 3, and the Emergency Ration Type P. (This scene was filmed November 2018.) Then after these two rations another two tins are shown from a 1945 Compo (10 man) ration, and a Mess Tin Ration component (Which include some microscope shots making for an aimlessly colorful particle show of unknown non-living and some potentially living bacterial matter.) After these, we then take a look at a special sealed can from circa 1900, going back in time with something perfectly preserved and truly unforgettable. Finishing up with some long winded historical ramblings and a look at 120 + years in British Rations, including some incredibly old (and bloomed) chocolate . Come join me in this outrageous journey through history!

    @babishculinaryuniverseمنذ 4 سنوات Whenever Steve takes a bite and says "hmm.", it's a 50/50 shot whether it'll be followed by "that.is pure, delicious decadence" id="hidden1" class="buttons"> or "that.tastes like rancid, foul botulism". Either way, he's eatin' it. God bless you Steve. ....وسعت 8977

    @xosammybمنذ 2 سنوات For real tho this man is doing some of the most in-depth documentation of these historical items that anyone will ever do. Without these videos no one id="hidden4" class="buttons"> would ever know what these MRE's would have looked like back then or some of them could have been completely lost in time. It's so cool to have an archive of all these things presented in such a nice and comfortable tone. ....وسعت 198

    @Tom-Bombمنذ 2 سنوات omg dude.. I can't thank you enough for opening those 120 year old cigarettes and sharing that historic moment with all of us!!! I can't get over id="hidden9" class="buttons"> the pristine condition they were in, and don't get me started on that hiss. just incredible!!! I get like a "history orgasm" just thinking about EVERYTHING that can has seen and been through lol! It's honestly like a miracle that it even still EXISTS!
    Like bro.. you opening that can and releasing air that hasn't been exposed since the end of the 1800's- from a time when people still rode horse and buggy, in the waning days of when the west was still wild, the second industrial revolution, and over a decade before the Titanic sank, the completion of the Panama Canal, and the START of the First World War- and then seeing that inside metal shine and see the light of day for the first time in over 100 years, not to mention that perfect card sitting on top was almost too much for me- like for real, that sight was meant for people who lived over 100 years ago and thanks to you, all of us were able to see it too! It was an honor and really almost too much for words- just spectacular! I can't thank you enough for that.. keep up the great work man, LOVE ur vids!!!
    P.S. those Queen Victoria tins are equally next level! I've seen them before but NEVER with the freakin chocolate still inside and intact!!! Like Jesus, that's legendary shit man! I'm really jealous. but hey, you think I can bum a stoge? lmao

    @rcharrin1949منذ 2 سنوات What a great video Steve. Not just opening cans of old food, but tasting them and sharing your knowledge of the history behind them. You sure enjoyed that id="hidden27" class="buttons"> Woodbine, something I smoked when I was much younger, but not from rations. You might be interested to know that K rations were provided to British airforce families in Cyprus at the start of the war in 1974 which led to the division of the island into the Turkish North and the Greek South. The families were evacuated from the cities, like Limassol, and billeted with families who had housing in the RAF bases like Akrotiri, where I was based. There were 3, or sometimes 4 families living in one house. K rations were delivered to each house to feed the families. I didn't try them myself, but my wife said that they were pretty good. ....وسعت 2

Moment!!!. they were from the early 50's and I ended up buying the carton of Old Golds and I have to say they were some of the best smokes I've ever had. I ended up giving a lot to people as a gift or if I was at the bar and people didn't believe me they were 60 odd years old, I'dd give them one and they were all blown away from the tast and how well they survived. it was a true experience that I can only dream of experiencing again.
