  • You should try eating a 24 hour ration over the whole day and find out if it actually keeps you full and is enough to keep you from going hungry , it would be interesting to find out if it's enough !
  • @allistrata
    Do you know what I like about you? You're a healthy eater, but you're not a snob. You don't act like it's beneath you to enjoy the simple pleasures of something like kool aid and admit it tastes good. Also, I live for the last few seconds of every video. You're so silly.

    Deciphering Emmy's 'Hmmm' 1. Hm! ( high pitched) = deliciousss! 2. Hmmmmm emm = dang that's good! 3. Emmm emm = omg that's bad.Nope!
  • @rockyraab8290
    Just to more fully explain this ration, it is intended for troops in the very first day or two of combat - when you spend most of your time getting shot at. So the foods are very much "grab and gobble" rather than dine (if dining EVER happens in the Army, lol!). It's heavy on energy-packed stuff and caffeine, not so much on nutrition. That can come later, when there's a lull in the fighting.
  • @jessicadayla
    That gum is about a cup of coffee, but it hits you in ~15 minutes because it crosses the mucus membrane of your mouth, and is actually stronger than coffee because it is not first processed by the liver. Essentially, caffeinated gum was developed for military for the purpose of rapidly getting the caffeine at a higher dose with a different serum level curve.

    I love that her comment section is hate free it's so nice
  • @antidotexx8848
    You are the best youtuber who has the best hate free comment section. This ration pack looked digusting tbh, you're brave to go through with it though. Kudos!

    Somebody send this girl some jalapeño cheese spread! 😂
  • @DJThree8s
    you're a brave woman for eating those "nuggets"

    Your mentioning that the turkey jerky reminded you of dog treats made me think of this. When NASA was in the process of developing food for multi-day spaceflights, they contacted a dog food manufacturer who suggested a sort of human kibble. This did not go over well. Other ideas included whole-nutrition shakes that the test subjects hated so much they poured them into the floorboards of the simulated rockets, and pureed foods in tubes. One of the first concepts were small cubed sandwiches, but the crumbs from the bread would break off and float into the instrument panel or into someone's eye, so they coated the sandwich in edible wax which had the unpleasant side effect of coating the mouth (astronauts now only use tortillas). I highly suggest checking out the book Packing for Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void by Mary Roach. One of my all-time favorite authors, and Emmy I think you would really enjoy her writing. She is really hilarious and the work that goes into her books is astounding. Thanks!
  • @samihamiah1598
    I literally stopped doing whatever I was doing just to watch this, these type of vids are my faaav💘
  • Emmy is very gracious when she taste tests, so if she says she doesn't like something? It's probably inedible.
  • @christyasmr4095
    I like how she is so positive about everything, and she's flat out honest.
  • @star_etraWrites
    LOL! Best part of the video...."Seal this up tightly..." spills the drink everywhere. LOVE it and you Emmy.
  • @ashuhlea
    This is so amazing. These videos are so epic and your voice Emmy, you help me out with my anxiety. Honest to god, so thankful I found your channel!
  • @lacey6431
    Who else could FEEL that something ironic would happen after Emmy said "seal it tightly" at 14:30? 🙋🏻🙋
  • @Darkshinebaby91
    I thought Emmy was wearing a really cool asymmetrical shirt. But it's just 2 tank tops and the mic makes them look asymmetrical. 😅
  • @shadowbanned761
    "I am wilting like a daisy" I love your charming innocence, you are my all time favorite you tuber.
  • @KCisScreaming
