Meals ready to eat is food used by militaries all around the world. This food is an excellent option for home food storage/ emergency Bug Out Bag. MREs are also commonly used by outdoorsmen. Camping, hiking, hunting, etc. MREs have a very long shelf life, do not need to be heated, very compact, etc. They are excellent in any tactical situation where a fire will give away your position. I also demonstrate the use of an MRE heater.

Thanks for watching!!!

  • you can fielf strip your mre by cutting open the top of the mre bag-remove food from cardboard boxes-put the food back in the mre bag-compress and roll or fold the cut side of the bag down-tape it with electric tape or duct tape-store in your bob,knap sac,or pack-

  • Good advice. Thats basically what I did to mine in the video. The cardboard takes up alot of valuable space. The heaters work w/out em anyways. Thanks Bro

  • usually when i check ebay for the mres they say that they do not come with the heater due to shipping restrictions - so where can i buy the mres that will come with a heater online? ive searced just about everywhere - thanks very informative video

  • Sorry man, I'm not sure. For some reason I thought you could buy them in 10 packs online. I don't know though. If you have any Local Military Surplus Stores, I would check there. Thanks Man

  • When you eat an MRE, you don't shit for a week... why they included toilet paper, I've no clue...

    :P

  • Flush it out with PLENTY of water and you'll be fine. Drink AT LEAST a liter or so a day, however. NOT ALL AT ONCE THOUGH.. because you'll get sick.

  • Thanks this helped a lot.

  • CHEW AND SWALLOW THE GUM AFTER YOU ARE DONE OR YOU WONT BE ABLE TO SHIT!!!

  • If you eat MREs, make sure to chew and swallow the gum when you are done eating!!!! If you don't you won't shit for a week!!!

  • @BossOfGSF i dont know about rations coming with teh heater but i know a couple companies who will ship heaters for the mre's in the usa only 

  • Very very informative... I really appreciate knowing about the heater too.

  • Doggy @ 0:41

  • God I love Ration Packs!

  • Please note that the gum contains laxatives to help aleiviat the constapation usualy ascotioated with MREs. So if you did'nt eat the MRE don't chew the gum.

  • great video mate, you explained perfectly how to use them

  • @iyBesao Maybe because they already have a military word for REM. I know that REM stands for Rapid Eye Movement. Plus, MRE is kind of catchy.
