4 different Hard Bread ration cans opened. The Hard Bread tins are over 100 years old.
First one is quite nice, another is perfectly preserved. Two others... you'll have to see for yourself. The Reserve Ration was used in WW1 and is what evolved to Field Ration Type C, which is the ration that eventually becomes the MRE, or Meal, Ready to Eat, Individual.
Exclusive shelf stable food history from beginning to end.
Filmed October 2019, February 2021, and December 2023.
Introducing the 1914 US Navy Emergency Ration and 1899 US Standard Emergency Ration in the latter part of this review. Stay tuned for more expensive, rare, and truly fascinating rations from the past.
A good portion of the Reserve Rations used in WW1 were shipped off to Poland after the war. Check out an exclusive photo at the end of the video showing this, and a ration dump with a whole bunch of canned salmon. Truly a fascinating look at not only the ration, but some really cool lost history in the photos as well.

Can 3 is by far the most amazing. They were vacuum sealed and perfectly preserved hard bread biscuits - much different and more palatable than the first tin's Sunshine hard tack. It turns into a true ration cooking show with a meal that is guaranteed to make you hungry. I sure was when preparing it, after a long day with very little food. It was a meal to remember!
