1899-1902 British Emergency Ration Field Service Oldest MRE Beef Eaten Survival Food Review Test - YouTube


Since the ancient times the army struggled to secure food in the battlefield, as there is a proverb saying "You can not fight if the hungry goes down." Preservation methods such as bottling and canning that are still used today are technologies used for original development.


The one prepared this time was actually distributed by the British army which was fighting in the second Bohr war. secondBohr WarWas a war between British and Dutch inhabitants over South African colonization, occurred from 1899 to 1902.


The real thing of the British army that was eaten more than 100 years ago looks like this. British troops are promoting the development of the development from the early 1880s. Originally it was said that the label was stuck with paper, but it seems that the years have passed and it is gone.


The weight is about 311 grams. The lid on both sides is firmly soldered.


However, rust is floating on the surface of the can, and damage like a small hole due to corrosion can be seen.


Although it looks like a can, in fact two cans are stuck together, remove the belt part in the center and split it. The belt part is supposed to have a ring that catches your fingers, but I do not know whether I went somewhere because I was torn.


Grab the belt part with a radio pliers so that it can not be helped, and slowly peel off.


When removing all the belts, the can was divided into two. The inside turns brown, and it seems that something black sticks to in some places. "Wow, I can not believe I can eat it with the feeling I saw," Steve, who is also a reviewer, will raise a voice without hesitation.


The lid of one of the cans looks like this. The contents are 113 grams of beef-made corned beef, and the lid is "You can eat it as it is, you can eat it with biscuits.If you cook for 1 hour with boiling water, you can drink as beef tea I wrote "I will do it."


Since it can not be opened with a radio pliers, insert a knife and open the lid.


"This is a corned bee more than 100 years ago, although it smells a little beef, it has a bad smell, I do not care." It seems to be a considerable stench.


The other was canned cocoa paste. "You can eat as it is, you can eat it with biscuits, and melt it in hot water of 1 pint (about 470 milliliters) and simmer for 15 minutes, you can drink hot cocoa," the lid said. .


When I opened it, there was a black mass in the middle. However, it seems that Steve judged that cocoa canned can not be eaten truly because part of the can corroded and the hole was opened.


I try to take out the contents from canned corned beef, but it can not be taken out easily because it is completely dry. I will use the forks to scrape the surface of the crunchy and corned beef. According to Steve, "It smells somewhat like a metal beef jerky".


Scraped corned beef will accumulate in the tray.


When you store the scraped powder in a sealable bag, it looks like sawdust rather than food. Steve sniffing the smell in the bag commented "It smells of metal and beef!"


Cocoa cans slightly smelling like chocolate can also tap the surface with a bottle opener to see if the contents can be taken out, but as the word of Steve says "It sounds like a rock", a concong sound and a harsh sound will be heard.


Cocoa will give up and we will put out all the corned beef in the tray. Since the surface has been scraped off all the time, we will shave out with a fork so that we can dig inwardly the inside with less damage.


While saying that this is "beef jerky 100 years ago," Steve takes out the contents from the can.


Completely dried corned beef has turned yellow, and it does not look like food.


"I do not know at all what to do, so I will try to bite a bit and for the time being," Steve declared.


Steve who does not take courage does not try to eat easily, but it smells a smell like taking a deep breath a couple of times ......


I gall on one corner of the chunk.


"It's the oldest beef I've ever eaten, and at the moment I put it on my tongue I get a little muddy taste, what on earth are you in there?"


Apparently it seemed that bone fragments were mixed, take out it from the mouth.


Steve says "It slightly smells the beef, but it tastes like old breadcrumbs, cardboard and chlorine, with small bones and cartilage, as soon as it is placed on the tongue it can not be eaten I feel it, I can not eat any more ", but ...


Next time we will try "Beef Tea" which was written in the lid.


I will introduce the contents of the can into boiling water. I heard that quite a bad smell is around here at this point.


Simply cook and cook as it is.


It looks like boiled for 15 minutes. Although it cooks with lid, it smells that it can not be said to be delicious at all. Since a terrible smell overflowed at the moment of opening the lid a little, Steve unexpectedly closes the lid unexpectedly.


After 30 minutes from the start of stewing, the amount of soup is also decreasing and you can see the state of being boiled down considerably.


When 40 minutes have elapsed, Steve squirtingly opens the lid and scoops it with a spoon while murmuring "It really is a bad smell ..."


It became paste like meat with thick like porridge.


It is Steve who was supposed to spit as it is, but saying, "A soldier in the Bohr War was eating this if the stomach was free", I will taste a mouthfully after a while to cool down .


"There is little taste, but it tastes slightly like meat, it sounds like a porridge with meat," Steve says to eat boldly, but it seems that it is not tasty again, "after all this is just It is a paste of fat and cartilage, it is not delicious at all. "
