Help! Is this a RUSSIAN or UKRAINIAN Ration? Taste Test -- Meal Ready to Eat RUSSIA MRE

It's a RUSSIAN IRP. Thanks everyone for the confirmation.

I'll never forget the time when Emmy made the jam into a nice hot beverage

Hello, I'm Ukrainian who also speaks Russian. And this is what was in those gold containers: At 9:50 eggplant caviar (spread). At 11:08 rice porridge with meat. At 12:15 stewed beef (real good if you mix it with any pasta). At 13:18 sauteed vegetables.

You dont even understand how much I love these MRE videos

that app works better if you aren't live translating it. If you just take pictures of it, it works so much better.

HI Emmy! I have an old hard-time family recipe that is extremely simple if you want it for that series! It's name is "Agolette" (Ah-johl-et) The recipe here is for one. You need pieces of Stale Italian Bread or French Baugette (all my great-grandparents were able to afford at the time) One half of a yellow onion One egg Preparation is simple: Boil a pot of water with chopped up onion. salt is optional. Once at a rapid boil, Crack your egg into the water. Wait until the egg is poached to a soft or medium texture. Turn off the water. Pour Take out the egg, and place on top of the stale bread. using a soup ladle, pour the onions on top of the stale bread, softening it and creating a tasty onion broth. you can put black pepper on top to taste.

"Very soft. Well cooked. Oily" thanks for describing me

If you don't see a letter that looks like "i", the text is in Russian, not Ukrainian. Easy way for someone who does't have much familiarity with the language to spot the difference!

The outer packaging may have been in Ukrainian dialect, but the contents were almost certainly in formal Russian. I suspect that ration was meant for some of their southern brigades. The puree is known as "vegetable caviar" and can be used as you did or made into a mug of soup. The much prized apple butter is often just squeezed directly into the mouth. The kasha starch was probably pearl barley. Finally, as you learned, the fuel tabs have a very unpleasant smell when they burn. Great job, Our Lovely!

When she proclaimed "NUBBIN" I choked on my water.

I literally laughed so hard when the vegetables translated to "horny"

3:56 “horny... council...” why did this make me laugh so hard? 😂😂

Quick Russian lesson for food: *сахар белый (sakhar belii) is sugar, white *перец (perets) is pepper. болгарский перец (bolgarskii perets) is literally Bulgarian pepper, which is the Russian name for capsicum or bell pepper *соль (sol) is salt. *сыр (seer) is cheese *яблоко (yabloko) is apples, but nouns change form for case and so on in Russian *икра (ikra) is literally caviar, but refers to pureéd vegetables like zucchini/courgette *каша рисовая (kasha risovya) rice porridge. Also made with buckwheat, wheat, or pearl barley. Fatty meat with the grain and lightly spiced. *говядина тушеная (govyadina tusheniya) is beef stew. Colloquially called "tushenka". первый класс (pervii klass) means first class/premium quality *рагу (ragu) is ragou *паштет печеночный (pashtyet pechtenochnii) is paté made from liver. In all likelihood, this will be pork with other bits of the pig like heart and brains as well as the liver. p.s. Your Uncle Gweilo can't speak Russian. Just picked up stuff from watching dozens of Russian language cooking videos.

White wipe is for your hands...the other is stronger and is for your mess kit.

“I don’t think this is owl... there isn’t much meat on owl.” HILARIOUS!! I laughed so hard! Thanks for the always entertaining videos, Emmy! 😂👍🏻

I’ve had morning sickness for the last couple of weeks so every type of food sounds and looks disgusting but the way you describe what you’re eating just makes me absolutely salivate.

Emmy, I just wanted to re-ask you to please look into making Spaghetti Pot Pies. They were huge in the 50s-70s with kids. I always chose those over chicken, turkey and beef. You can't find them anymore (at least online). Just a request, and hoping you might notice it this time and consider trying it out. Thanks so much! (it contained a thick meaty sauce with spaghetti pasta in a normal pot pie crust, so good!)

The spread you were eating is pashtet. Pâté is a mixture of cooked ground meat and fat minced into a spreadable paste. Common additions include vegetables, herbs, spices, and either wine or brandy (often cognac or armagnac).

I love all of your MRE videos because you don’t overreact to tasting anything like most other youtubers!

I love this particular hairstyle on you Emmy!! ☺️ it’s so flippy and cute I adore the asymmetry
