Emergency Food Review : Saratoga Farms Freeze Dried Apples w/ Cinnamon

[Chenriak]

You are making these sounds way too good. I almost feel like getting some just to have them.

[Mrbigmoreno76]

Really great video's... and i mean all your videos i love the in depth detail which seems to answer all my questions.... instead of a 3min video that leaves me with more questions then when i started lol!!! Thanks again bro and i'm definetly subing you... P.S. is the ready store the best place to get my #10 cans of freeze dried? i heard saratoga farms was the best value for ur buck and the ready store seems to be the only supplier of saratoga farms....

[kev8338]

great video, thanks man! this is one of the 'better' ones on youtube!

[boggyman10090]

Honey and fruitcake last forever...

[asas2jh]

There appears to be an uptick in people looking at MRE meals. Is everyone waiting for "D" day?

[ITReviewer]

Wow, look at this! An original cutlerylover!

[jarredc99]

if no one told me what was in the can i would of said they were photato chips

[surferd619]

they are good added to pancakes or in oatmeal .

[MyAwsomesause]

WOW, they filled the can up to the top.

[BBgunmaster67]

These are awsome right out of the can as a sweet snack

[jacob7young]

healthy chips

[chichiweh]

TRY MUSHROOMs

[highwaycruiser]

I was wondering what the water would taste like if heated up like a tea.Might be an idea to do a vid on that 1 day if you didnt mind !.

[skigod222]

WRAP IT UP

[ekimtoor]

Here in the great lakes they have recovered canned goods off sunken ships that are over 50 years old. They sent them off to be tested and the results were they were safe to eat and still had a good % of their nutrients,

[boxa888]

the french canned meat for 100 years and opened the can in 1912 and fed it to a cat, it kept alot of nutrition and was safe to eat after 100 years!

[thejustinl1]

i know you say you give extras away to freinds and neighbors but i bet you kept more of these i would i tried a buddies and their awesome

[yodellyo]

It's a nice idea to make these but you could easily make that into a 3 minute video. It would help so many more people cause I bet most of them turn it off long before you ever show them the food. And you would be more likely to have people check out the other videos you do also. Just a thought.

[cutlerylover]

@yodellyo there are countless 3 minute videso ion youtube...anyojne interested in the subject will wait for the entire video

[jgrand14]

@cutlerylover i agree jeff. if your actually concerned with emergency food and any of your survival videos then its worth the wait.

[JohnnyDoSack]

@cutlerylover thats a bad tactic..

[johnmonk66]

@cutlerylover I agree 100%, I hate 3 minute videos, if a video ain't ten minutes long I won't watch it. Most of mine run 20 minutes now

[MLarson01]

heat em up, then they taste better.

[audiocable]

that farm must be run by jews cause god fucking dammit their expensive

[tazzzwannabe2]

These are 14 bucks a can now..

[roxiexd]

very nice review.

[ArtisticwithaK]

Use by: Death

[zolo365]

honey doesnt expire

[cruz5777]

this is like pulling teeth! seriously its a can of apples!

[StartPauseStop]

I LIKE ur Fork

[llBassmanll]

200 year old salisbury steak anyone?

[RBNightlinger]

Cool fork. Love the handle.

[gavinsstuff]

seriously it took you 11 and a half minutes to repeat about 30 times that they taste good. be concise

[SOCAL2NC]

I ordered a year supply of veggies, and a year supply of breakfast's. Good value, excellent idea for food storage. They also have non-hybrid seeds. excellent ideas for emergencies. I'm telling you, this is very necessary....NOW!

[martinraa]

''show u what it taste like'' lol.. how can u show us what it taste like

[austin881000]

you do way better reviews on food but thats what i expected.

[PooleeMaunder]

LOL the swiss army knife is a nice touch but if hes going to do food reviews then maybe he needs to get a real can opener

[zachryan10]

honey is the food that never goes bad unless its contaminated. forever is the shelf life

[austin881000]

@zachryan10 thats the truth even contaminated its like cheese you just take the bad part off and its still good!!

[MarcusLKF001]

but you gonna love doing this =D

i'm hungry now XD

[supernova1990]

I bet those would be awesome mixed up in some oatmeal.

[chin3sematt]

does it dry out your mouth when you eat them dry? hahaha

btw, what's the difference between freeze dried and just dried?

[mastermakerhacker]

Was it actually very good? you didnt seem all that impressed at first..i think ide wrather just eat em plain lol

[DeimosSaturn]

You gotta do a review of the cheeseburger in a can.

[funtimeswithflames]

wats funny is it said fresh on the can

[thejustinl1]

to make it a little crisp i would add a little less water thats needed and i would use cold apple juice to soak it man now im hungry lol

[jaymore123]

$21.75 for 8 ounces!!..... Thats over $40 per pound....I just baught a 5 pound bag of apples for $3.00!!!.... This is good for long term storage but what would it take to dehidrate, vacume seal and store you're self??

[cutlerylover]

@jaymore123 you have to realize once you take out moisture it weighs nothing...the volume is large even though the weight is not...

[Lonewolf6565]

@cutlerylover

you may get a lot in one can but 21 dollars is still WAAAAAY to much!

[puppystomper324]

@jaymore123 i freeze dry stuff alot i make cinnamin apples soo good also jerky works in a dehydrater

[alexandre007opa]

@jaymore123 40 per pound no offense but here in portugal its a cultural thing to eat dry fruit like in holydays and parties and it costs like 2 euros the kg XD

[casinostyle69]

@jaymore123 better spelling and grammar. Bought, dehydrate, vacuum, and that's the wrong you're/your. Not to mention that it's yourself, one word. I thought kids under 13 weren't supposed to be on youtube.

[StoutNerd]

lol you made me hungry :P, def lookin forward to try these out, thanks for the review!

[Nicke19933]

@MrTadaaaaaaaaaaaa hahah awesome comment dude

[karisawa]

dont chew it... let your saliva rehydrate it, it'll taste much better

[forshizzlemcfizzle]

What if you used cold or room temperature water?

[supeazre]

man I could live off of these things! they look good.

[JesusFuckingChrist84]

I know MRE's are great for day hikes and what not, but bloody hell they are expensive... same with these apples, actually.

[sfshrimp]

If you want to go hiking and have a quick snack, then just buy some dried fruit mix which is like $2 a pack, it just doesn't have a 20 - 30 year shelf life, these are made for emergency food.....

[COD4PLAYER123456]

I found out Saratoga is up in New York

[247wanderlust]

Why do I get the feeling you're going to eat all your reserves?

[cutlerylover]

lol, well after the video I pout the lid on and stashed them away...have not touched them since, but remmeber I onyl have a year now for the open cans...

[sfshrimp]

Hey can you please upload the next video about food? I love those videos and I want to see the dried beef, I want to see if its like beef jerky and how much meat is inside :D

[WarTornHero92]

next time you do some fast forwarding you should play some ragtime music lol

[JZSYLUX]

GET TO THE POINT MAN!!!

[ArtisanTony]

Be careful eating them out of the can. I had a friend who got sick because he ate them dry then drank a canteen full of water. The apples expanded in his stomach and he about died from the pain.

[sfshrimp]

he died...from the pain....

why lie?

[ArtisanTony]

@sfshrimp it's an expression dummy. He didn't really die. Why are there so many ignorant people on youtube

[Bubblewhip341]

Hey could you do a review on some mountain house meals?

[sfshrimp]

@Bubblewhip341

Did you even watch the video?

[bushcraftourway]

i want me that can to make a big ol homo stove :P

[lambda2walk]

Wow those sound really good. Ima get sum

[alfred3299]

dude i live ur vids but they are way too long

[SmartFool24]

You couldnt just have a regular fork huh, had to have a cool one :p

Anyways, they sound really good and crunchy, I think I'd rather have them dried then rehydrated.

Cool review, I dont think there are any other reviewers or video posters that have the range of variety you have lol

Knives, Guns, and dehydrated apples :p Keep up the good work.

[lamarbrog]

Dried and canned foods last so well, and taste good.

Just earlier this week, I ate some Clam Chowder (powdered) that was canned in 1999 (Yes, Y2K food.) It is kind of degraded in color, but tastes just fine. I went back to the pot for two more bowls, and ate leftovers the next day... So it couldn't have been that bad.

These apples look really good. I kind of want to try preserving some myself with a dehydrator.

[unlimitedfirepower]

cinimon makes anything good =P

[cornflake71]

Now you need to try making a pie.

Do they make freeze dried pie crust?

[nissesjul]

I start to like u now again ;) when u show about the food =)

[nissesjul]

I really start to like u now again when u have the food ;)

[MrZotZot]

i love freeze dried foods i use them in all my survival kits AAAWWSSOOMMEEE!! :D

[FabioCrow07770]

that's one thing I Don't need. I Have like 5 apple trees in the back lol =P

[ThePhijo]

Looks good but expesive: Over 20 $...

But well 30 years shelf life...

[liner986]

to make them crunchy you'd have to put them in slightly cooled boiled water for 15min at least, this is to force maximum water into the apples via osmosis

[wikigeek]

haha i learnt that in school last year =]

[shelbysharp13]

you bastard...now im hungry for some space food. love the fids man. good work. and where do you pick these up?

[TechCuber]

Cool fork (The end )

[mlacey56]

Nice vid. Saratoga makes good stuff. Haven't tried the apples and cinnamon.

[vovavoyevodin]

luks tasty! interesting diference betwen difrent sorts of alles in thet condition.

[121fu]

looks good

[hot2warm]

Nice demo. Don't think I've ever seen Saratoga Farms before. It's usually Mountainhouse. Anyway, do the cans have a manufactured/processed/canned date on them anywhere?

[Selax]

And Cutlerylover, you should try some dried bananas too! Taste good.

[Selax]

Provident Pantry makes these too. Thats what i could find on the west coast anyway. Taste better dry imo.

[Lancelodeon3]

i enjoy all of your videos. thank you for going out of your way to make these wonderful videos.

[knightdrako]

From the looks of it already I just wana eat it straight out of the can lol

[BulletProofNinja49]

look up how long natural honey lasts.. makes everything else look like nothing... its the 1 thing that lasts a very long time

[mattinmo]

i could only imagine what 30 yr old freeze dried apple's would taste like!

[seven47katana]

food reviews kind off cool

[gunsnrosescolin2]

great vid jeff!

which ones do u like better? the dried apples or the apples after you put the water in them?

[revisualize]

You need to understand that that is for a 25 year shelf life. Really it isn't that bad when you look at what it happening and going to happen to the cost of food. Also, with the fact that food supplies may run out in a few years. It is a really good investment.

[thebjgj2]

is that right food supply running out

[trvmcintosh]

honey dosn't spoil!(sorry if i've already told you) but they've actually found honey in the pyramids and it was still edible..after a LOOOONG time

[shummyshum]

they're like those fruit chips they sell in snack bags at costco. costco has them in bulk, and have like banana, strawberries, and apple.

[Chatter107]

Wow, seems a little pricey to snack on along the trail... They must be really good.

[haljordan2010]

This is good information. Thanks.

[joekim1000]

oooh....should do that 4 a chezbooger

[Jesses001]

Oh, I did not know those could last up to 30 years. I know they are tasty as a snack for sure.  I guess I will have to pick some up then when I am working.

[MrWapoSapo]

actually seems pretty good

[krum369]

No offense but you suck at saving money and keeping it cutlerylover since you've also asked from your subscribers, with that $25 you could have bought yourself a food dehydrator and maid A LOT of this dried slices of apples instead of buying this overpriced product, also you could have maid yourself your own custom MREs bags for less money and more food.

[cutlerylover]

I didnt buy this stuff...BTW you cna freeze dry food in a dehydrator, you can only dehydrate it which doesnt have as long of a shelf life (more moisture) , even though packed in an airtitght container it still last a long time...

[RcUniverseGuy]

dude i dont think thats necessary.. were not all nuts making our own mre and shit

[knifelover78910]

@krum369 fail.

[coldhardjet11]

they kinda look like apple chips that my grandma made haha

[TonyCaps1]

the shelf life of honey is forever lol

[hcmalibu72]

Mmmm..... You can't go wrong with freeze-dried fruit or dehydrated fruit. Good snack and morale booster! Thanks for the review, hope to see more!

[RDPproject]

Jeff...youre making me hungry dude...lol

Hang on...i have dried cranberrys in the cupboard...

brb.....

[34601k]

unless you live in the mountains or a REALLY rural area i highly doubt you should waste your hard earned cash on this. del monte can fruit also lasts like 3 years so thats no point in buying these

[cutlerylover]

I already own canned fruit for this...and as you mentioned, needs to be swapped out every few years...

[So1017ccerguy]

chubby hands XD

[MrCokeinator]

haha sweet i wanna get some now i love dried fruit lol wow jeff u r like my idol

[cutlerylover]

just remmeber thnis is ftreeze dreid fruit, there ios literally no moisture in these, unlike dried fruit mixes you get at the store like banana chips or dried apricots and raisins...

[ZOMGitsKENNY]

I'd have an impulse to put that fork on my keychain... I'd walk around with it too ;D.

[EliteNZPlayerZ]

how would this work wit meat?

[cutlerylover]

same thign freeze dried it has no moisture...when you ahve somethgin completely dry and no air it cna last...

[EliteNZPlayerZ]

oh cool thanks for the reply :)

[4770589]

I would keep the water and drink it! Nice apple flavor

[relentless505]

nice. paterson is nice. paramus malll is amazing. can you do a  video on how o sharpen knifes properly. becaue whever i do it i scratch i up badly

[dsarti1]

LOL LMAO hahahah cutlery lover is going to eat all his emergency foo storage...I predict he gains 40 pounds on this project LOL

[cheese22092]

haha yea i just thought of that... looks like he put too much water in those apples look sogy

[cutlerylover]

@dsarti1 Well its just a taste test I didnt mind too much with the apples since its not bad for you or anything..But the lids go back on aftre the demos and they get stores for the year perhaps substituting some dinners in the mean time...what is opened for video isnt part of my actual storage since it dramtically decreases the life span, also Im not expectung to get all that many different cans, but well see...

[dsarti1]

@cutlerylover Yea right!!! You cant fool another big fat ass... This is why I keep all my freeze dried and MRE goodys in another building not in the house becouse they really taste good and if they are too handy (I am Weak) I will eat them LOL

[cutlerylover]

haha well Ill have to invest in vegitables instead of the can of ice cream sandwiches then, lol...

[MrZotZot]

do what i do if youre not gonna cook the apples after rehydrating them drain the water and lightly freeze them. mabye 10 in depending on how much you rehydrated. then poof! crunchy yum yum

[AirPhforce]

If you eat them dry like that they are going to dehydrate you. The water has to come from some where, when you eat it dry, it comes from you.

[relentless505]

where from jersey? middlesex area?

[cutlerylover]

sussex/pasaic most of my life, patterson, lodi, paramus, west milford, franklin to be exact most of it is west milford..

[MrZotZot]

i know huh freeze dried food is so great!

all my survival kits are freeze dried food and water purifiying stuff so good :D

[SSanf]

BTW, remember that 6 of those are equivalent to a whole apple. Don't eat too many all at once unless you want to be using your hygiene kit more than usual. ;)

[dipper4america]

great video man.

[SSanf]

I think after you open the can that you should put the leftover contents that you wont use up in a month into canning jars with an oxygen absorber and store them in a dark place. They should last a lot longer after opening if you do. Depending on the product, you could use pint size jars for storage so that you do not need to open more than you will use.

[knivesNstuff45]

i dont know why...but i find these food vids very interesting...keep it up Jeff!

[CmanHH]

Twinkies live forever :p

[pogobat88]

I know this is random but...IT"S MY BIRTHDAY! so do they taste like chips?

[cutlerylover]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAN! They taaste like dried apples, lol...but sort of like hard styrofoam texture...

[KongraDNB]

Freeze dry banana's maybe?

[Jmckanlam]

yum looks good do have peperoni or chicken??

[codebman]

it looks like to me a big can of frosted flakes. lol

[Jmckanlam]

WAIT ARE THOSE GOOD?

[rocksock00444]

ive had freeze dried strawberries before and realy i prefer them dry but yeah i recomend them

[cutlerylover]

hjardtack only offers one nutritioanl value, carbs...I guess you cna live off of that with a viatemin and mineral suppliment, but it doesnt sound very fun...haha I guess you cna add honey to sweeten the deal since honey doesnt go bad...

[jj22oo]

they are unhealthy when not hydrated

[Majik1911]

your silverware is kickass! lol.. Nice video as always, keep it up...

Do you do any optics reviews? Binocs telescopes, nighvision etc? Ive been a subscriber for a while, but perhaps i just havnt found one.

[rappertass]

what if soak them in like some soda or a juice to will it taste like some sort of fruit salad?

[jj22oo]

plz not that much food stuff

[mrCrispy725]

Its weird, i always imagine freeze dried foods to be ice cold, i have had it before, but i still get that sensation that when i bite it, i will get that cold shiver.

[1doi3]

yeah, who need knife reviews... food is a lottt better, thx

[f18esuperhornet13]

cool I want some!

Great video!

[cujomojo2007]

A much better long term storage option Jeff. I have checked out the ready store a few times, shame they won't ship to the UK.

[The67676767676767676]

how much did that can cost

[kiks1120]

don't play with the food

[lakeb0dom]

Nice im looking forward to more food reviews!

[LegitimateLegenD]

haha. now i want to try some

[sae1095hc]

It would be comforting to know that even 30 years after the apocalypse, while the other survivors are eat grubs and human flesh, you can, with some flour and shortening, still enjoy a delicious apple pie.

[relentless505]

are you from jersey?

[cutlerylover]

yes hense the wooter, lol

[anarchyrealm]

How much do you plan on buying and can you buy in bulk?

[cutlerylover]

dont know yet, but they do have package deals cheaper...

[joakim08050805]

ive heard about eatable hunny from pyramids, which was thousands of years old.

[puppystomper324]

@joakim08050805 do u mean honey XD yrah honey will stay good forever because oxygen cant penatrate the surface

[joakim08050805]

ive heard about eatable hunny from pyramids, which was thousands of years old.

[joakim08050805]

hunnys shelflife should be unlimited, or at least 100 years, but on the packaging, it says highest 4-5 years, but ive heard about hunny from pyramids, which was eatable, obviusly several thousands of years old.
