Mexican Dads Try MREs (Military Food)

We had our Mexican Dads try Military MRE meals made by the United States Department of Defense. These meals are not only used by the military when they are out in the field but are also used by civilians during emergencies.

All dads agree on 1 thing. They deserve better meals and I swear I think one of them wanted to tear up.😢 I miss my dad he passed away 3 years ago and this reminds me of him.

MREs are for when you are in combat or training in the field, they are high in calories so you have energy all day. When I was in the army they use to have little bottles of Tabasco. The best by far was chilli mac and the worst was the veggie omelet

The food is for military troops on the go, they have great food on the base...should have had the dads prepare it from the package and had a soldier help out or give tips on how they eat it. Much love to our troops and veterans, Thank you for that you do for this country!

My dad had many of the same reactions when I brought him an MRE my first time visiting them since boot camp, thank you guys for sharing.

they put it on a fancy plate lol. shouldve thrown the bag at them and give them 5 mins to eat...for that authentic experience

That’s not Military food, that’s combat food. That’s what you eat in the field, you can prepare it anywhere, and it’s meant to give you a lightweight high calorie meal instead of starving.

Please do Mexican dad try soul food that would be so fun to watch 🎉❤

This is all I ate for pretty much one year after Hurricane María hit us in Puerto Rico. Some of these were actually not that bad.

I'd love for them to try west African food like fufu or Ethiopian food! :)

I absolutely love this series! Keep it coming!

Loved the lack of intro... I feel like most people would like at least a 10 sec, but I loved this right in to it

I miss mres! Some of them came with a small bottle of tobasco. Arturo how can you forget the Marine Corps? We are the best!

Mad respect for the OG Papahs for showing love for our country and our troops. ❤️

My parents and I watched this together both serve in the US Army, and this brought back memories.

[AznPersuasion]

The triple Og's! Mr. Vicente reminds me of Ernie from George Lopez lol.

Seeing this brought back memories. When Katrina hit Mississippi and Louisiana we had so many MREs😅 i lived with my grandparents and it was just us 3. We had no lights for 2 weeks and from where we lived it was a one way in, one way out road and it was blocked for days because of the downed trees and powerlines. I never figured out how to do use the green bags. I would love to try the Poundcake and cheese again.

I always brought a bottle of hot sauce before going out to the field. Chicken chunks probably had to be one of my favorite ones

[Kivas_Fajo]

They should try the MRE's from Croatia, France, Italy...and be amazed. ^^

[ar-sithf.austin]

They use to put at least some Tobasco sauce in. Not knowing how much boys and especially Southern boys appreciated it. There's countries, third world almost compared to us who make far better MREs than We do.
