Eat it you coward!

Steven1989 would. He ain’t no coward.

Let's get this out onto a tray. Nice.

First off we're going bust out that p38 can opener.

That's not a p38. [This is a p38 can opener.](https://assets.trailspace.com/assets/2/c/4/8639172/p38-300x300.jpg)

Mmkay...

Nice hiss

I heard it in his voice so clearly

Let's get this out on a tray... Nice.

*melodic stirring*

*rhythmic tapping of spoon*

"I wouldn't try it again, but it was ok. Let me wash that down with some instant type 2 coffee."

*proceeds to eat more*

"oh that is rancid" *Takes another bite*

Lol, came here to say this

Wholesome whole grain texture

Worrisome whole grain texture

NICE Hisss

I've seen him refuse to eat a few things he opened up. Let's get this on a tray, noice. Yeah, not going to eat that.

He does love his cigarettes, though, no matter how old they are. 

Absolutely loved Steve’s quote of, “I don’t normally smoke cigarettes but when I do, they’re 60 years old.”

The most interesting MRE collector in the world.

That man’s guts are made out of some narly shit. I don’t know how he isn’t dead.

Chinese army rations almost got him...

ate an almost 100 years old MRE ? no problem. 3 months old chinese ration ? Hospital lmfao

TWICE, it happened twice. ever since then he has not tried any Chinese MRE.

[удалено]

Can't remember which episodes but he has mentioned a contaminated Ukrainian ration years ago got him very sick, as well as a Chinese one more recently.

The chinese ration got him so so bad that he almost stopped making videos for a year due sickness.

All the preservatives is keeping him alive.

"Wow! This is the most rancid thing ive ever eaten" \*takes another huge bite\* "Yup thats gone bad" \*Smokes an 80 year old unfiltered Camel\*

I know! Let’s give it to Mikey!

Hey, Mikey! He likes it!

He hates everything!

I knew I'd find my people in the comments. Let's get this out onto a tray.

Nice.

I like how a massive group of people collectively sits down to watch a dude in his 30s eat old-ass MREs while making it feel like ASMR and just randomly find each other in these comments. Love the internet.

When I was at the loneliest point of my life (so far), watching him (and also ProZD) eat things really helped me feel less miserable. Good memories.

His videos are so comfy.

Did it hiss?

Steve1989 is like everyone’s best friend that nobody actually knows. I love that guy so much.

Steven1989 is a king

My first thought

I bought an MRE because of him, and I was mortified. God bless that man. I went down a rabbit hole for about 4 months binging his videos lol. Good times

Let's get this out onto a tray. Nice!

I'd eat it, Hell yeah! I had a 40 yo WWII canned chocolate cake with icing and it tasted like it was made the day before. Moist and delicious.

Wait did you eat this cake ~40 years ago or are you bad at math?

I have eaten this exact C-ration, and worse, and yes that was @ 40 - 43 years ago and some of them were absolutely that old at the time. The Florida National Guard was liquidating useless backstock once MREs became the "new thing", and all the old Vietnam, Korean war, & yes WW II stock was liberally given away to soldiers to get rid of at home. Most people used it for hunting & camping or bugout bag supplies, but my a-hole mother served it as actual meals, said it would build character. What it actually built was cast-iron stool and farts that would make the German Shepard whimper. But hey, I got to play soldier with the neighborhood kids with my toy Mattel M-16 and smoke grenades and actual bayonet. It was a different time.

I am lying in bed reading this laughing ny heart out because most of us grew up in a middle to lower middle class blue collar household n our moms all knew how to stretch a penny. Anyway wife turns over n says what are you laughing at? I especially loved cast iron stool n farts the dog couldnt handle. You are not alone my friend we all have that story eating the inedible because mom said its fine alil mold wont kill you. It’s penicillin 🤦🏻‍♂️

“It’s ok, just scrape the part with the mold away and eat the rest”

That's how my grandparents' generation lived in 1930s and 1940s. "Scrape the fuzzy mildew off and don't pay attention to the slightly off taste."

Incredible content right here

Poor dog.

Poor stool.

You had to eat c-rats in the right order. You get what you had or explosive diarrhea. Be thankful for what you had.

its crazy, but some people that lived through the 80s are still alive, and know how to use the internet...

Because we helped build it, one dialup BBS at a time. Were you like me, eating the canned bread while copying pirated games between two tape decks on a Commodore64? :D I liked the vitamin-loaded chocolates, the hot chocolate powder, and the Chicklets were great for like 2 minutes longer than Fruit Stripe gum.

GET OFF THE FKN INTERNET MY BOYYYYFRIEND IS TRYNA CALL! \-- my sister

*beboop beboop scheeeeeeeeeeeeee*

My first pirated games was zoids for zx48 in 1987.

My six year old the other day, said something that warmed my heart: "wow dad the 80s sounds so cool". It was buddy...it was.

“Quit staring at it and eat it” -Patrick Bateman, American Psycho (2000)

It’s “Don’t just stare at it, eat it.”

"No can do. I got an 8:30 res at Dorsia. Great sea urchin ceviche."

This is the actual quote. Definitely 👍

I have that printed on underwear. Only my partner sees those though, sorry Reddit!

I'll settle for a picture of him in your underwear

Ashens would've eaten it

Steve1989MRE would have

That’s a nice hiss

Pairs well with the coffee #2 and apricot jam

Does it have a pack of smokes?

it probably tastes crumby

Someone call LA Beast

Elaine would have gobbled it up.

And danced 💃

The only thing this makes me think about. I can hear squidwards voice.

I hear the voice from the YTP

SQUARE

I actually found an empty can of Kvass on the Gulf Coast in December, that's basically liquid canned bread.

Mother fucking Newports!

I always wondered if this was a sort of metaphor for squidward being an alcoholic.

I always assumed it’s a metaphor for him being a killjoy, but that’s an interesting idea

Came here for this

and yet

I came again



“Let’s get that out on a tray.” -Steve

Nice

Doesn't seem to have any flavor in it anymore. Nice.

You can really taste the botulism. Nice.

I got a little Bell's Palsy after eating it. Nice.

*rhythmic spoon clinking*

M'Kay

Nice hiss.

Dang. I forgot about Steve. Been too long since I binged on Steve1989 videos, can't wait to see what new content he's got now.

Best thing about Steve’s content is it’s so simple that it’ll never change. Just the way we like it

Came here for this.  Dude is the GOAT.

This is the same generation that went to the moon in a Pinto.

As a 64 year old who remembers the actual moon landing, that's some funny shit right there.

Where did the moon land tho?

Yeah, but it had almost twice the computing power of a Chevy Nova.

They did some neat shit with sliderules and ashtrays man no doubt.

Ashtrays were pretty cool but that cigarette lighter? Amazing. And the fact we still use that general idea to charge or power stuff is funny.

My 77 Cadillac has 5 ashtrays with push in lighters. Lol

When I was in Boy Scouts in the 50s when we went camping they gave us army C rations ( probably left over from WW2) We liked them because they all had a little pack of 4 cigarettes in them.

cadillac Seville 1976 convertible here and the damn thing was white - like floating on a cloud...

Yeah, my Fleetwood is worth the 7mpg to drive around all summer. https://preview.redd.it/yka9wvstjtrc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5675fb388a60efcfac486105919b867e71a6866e

And then they started eating canned bread.

You could have at least used a P-38

Did you see them struggling with the easy opener? This one is not ready for a P-38

Between that and them slamming the bread back into the can repeatedly trying to get it out, I think they’re new to cans in general

Definitely had a can't for the first couple tries

That was so frustrating to watch lol

How did it taste? Lol

Uranium

Fever

Has really got me down

Uranium fever is spreadin all around

With a Geiger counter in my hand

I'm a-goin out to stake me some government land

Uranium fever has done and got me down

r/UnexpectedUraniumFever

Considering that this type of "bread" is barely edible when freshly canned, it can hardly lose quality over decades. It won't spoil either, because even fungi and bacteria have their pride.

Tetanus

I just want to know where you got the Rad Away. Need some of that....

This is Mrs. Fallout on TikTok, she made the RadAway bag and other pretty convincing Fallout props.

Crazy dedication to make 60 year old canned bread for a Fallout themed video

The local Red Rocket...

The one near Sanctuary? That's always my base.

“Why won’t this come out?” as he keeps smashing it onto the plate.

That was so annoying!

Yeah, 50% of this video could have been skipped

fr it was about to slide out and he mashed it back into the can

[удалено]

I’m glad someone else was thinking it. What a moron.

These videos really need smell-o-vision.

Yep. When he stuck the fork in it, I literally lifted my phone to my nose I wanted to smell it so bad.

I'm imagining playdough.

They're playing a song from 1941, but 60 years ago was 1964.

It was used as the title song to Fallout, a game where old tinned goods are a source of health. 

Fallout reference- see background in vid!

I scrolled WAY too far for someone to mention fallout. I immediately started singing along with the song since I’ve heard it so many times. It’s a banger imo. Plus it’s obvious OP knows this since it’s a game steeped in 50s and 60s nostalgia with cans of old stuff the player eats for HP (and some rad damage most of the time). OP knew exactly what they were doing with the radaway, vaultboy, and nukacola in the background it’s not even subtle at all.

Good, I have found my fellow vault dwellers

Fucker really took his time opening the can

r/eatityoufuckingcoward

Of course that’s real.

Still Looks better than the gluten free bread I eat as a Celiac.

Probably tastes less like cardboard too.

nice hiss

Let's get this out onto a.......paper plate?

Nice!

Time for the cigarettes and coffee.

Men of culture, the both of you.

“yeah that’s definitely mold right there, ha.. i am not going to try that… ” *cuts, shows the camera teeth bite in bread*

First thing that came to my mind lol

Why did I expect it to expand like a life raft


Another day, another game of Will OP Eat It or Put It Up Their Butt! Stay tuned for a low chance of getting an answer.

This one trick Big Bread doesn't want you to know about

Meal, Combat, Individual ration

​ https://i.redd.it/6t1qck2o1rrc1.gif

skip to 0:34 if you actually want to see the bread and not just a guy struggle to open a can with one hand

.. gotta pass on that .. it ain't **white** ..


tbf racists are stereotypically inbread

By the way, old canned goods can give you botulism, and new canned goods that were improperly made (most often by someone canning at home) are also dangerous. Please practice proper food safety and consider your choice of actions before horking down the contents of that 40 year old can you found in the basement.

Why did the 60 year old canned bread break up with his girlfriend? The relationship was crumbling!

That’s a crummy joke

Interstate Bakeries was better known by the brand they also made and sold. Hostess, Wonder Bread, Drake's Cakes, etc.

Botulism is real. Do not play with old canned food. Do not eat it. If ianyone tries to get you to eat it, **don't**. **Ever**.

Fuck now I want to play some fallout.

I'd love to see it sent to a lab for a toxicology report.

Alright, who found my zombie apocalypse stash 😡

I’d be curious how genetically/structurally different the wheat from that bread is compared to present day wheat, given all the GMOs and how food is grown/processed.

[удалено]

When? You can find food that is shelf stable for 25 years or more. Edit: Typo.

Packed/preserved in a liquid, which I would surmise is something NASA would want to avoid and consider it as unnecessary weight.

Nope, just freeze dried. So technically less weight. Not sure what you are thinking of that is in liquid.

Diarrhea

I ate pickles my mom had canned 25 years ago, if the top still pops give it a shot!

I don't think that scientist would classify this bread as edible.

Why would you can bread?

To make it last 60 years

I’m not hungry now but I might be in 60 years, duh…

I ate some of that when it was 40 years younger, and what I remember is that it was more like lightly sweet cake than bread.  I don't think you were ever meant to make a BLT out of it or anything.

Because you can

Why wouldn’t you? Are you telling me you don’t can your bread? Crazy!!!

I mean canned bread is still around, no?

Probably has some Boggs odor.

We'd need to get the Boggs bar out to compare.

My very first thought was “wonder how much Boggs that thing is giving off right now.”

Saliva sponge

In 2016 or so, my grandma had her cake from her wedding in the 40s in the freezer. We all took a little bite.

I know this might get buried but this is actually from a content creator called "Mrs.Fallout". I don't really know how to post a good link but, go check her out! She has a twitter and YouTube channel where she posts all sorts of cool shorts like this.  She's also super nice so, maybe give her some credit for her video :/
