Why is this so expensive on Amazon???
>falling for product placementroom temp IQ>inb4 IT'S IRONIC DUDE>inb4 BUT IT'S FUN YOU HATE FUN YOU'RE MADi don't think kojima is a hack but i do think you are a hack if you shill monster and doritos and ipods and caloriemate and whatever else he's sold out to
>>719301478These are basically just cookies and taste disgustingt. got hoodwinked into buying a bunch for fuji
>>719301478I did buy one back when MGS3 came out.It was probably one of the worst things I've eaten.They should've had Snake say "This is HORRIBLE" after the promotion period ran out.
>>719301540>caloriemate and whatever else he's sold out toYOU CAN'T EVEN BUY IT ONLINE IF YOU WANTED YOU DUMB RETARD WTF ARE YOU YAPPING ABOUT?
>>719301689STFU THE CHEESE FLAVOR IS THE ORIGINAL
>>719301689Was this not designed as basic survival food, you know enough calories to get you going.I would hardly expect fine dining.
>>719301478I did the math on those carbs/fat/protein, and it doesn't add up to 400 calories. DROPPED
>>719302494I retract my statement as I misread one.leaves thread, hides thread, closes /v/
>>719302469Yeah, but they are seriously gross compared to any other calorie bar I've eaten back home
>>719301478it tastes like shit
Back when I was a kid I just thought it's some weird chocolates
I ate them for breakfast everyday for like a year. The chocolate ones are good. They are good for calorie control. They are a bit fatty but as long as you just ate half a pack and only for breakfast, they are decently healthy.
>>719302619It is kind of an oddity that they became an iconic staple in Japan, knowing the tastes they usually have.I had one of the Ramune drinks once and it was like drinking a field of sugar cane.
>>719302760where da fuck did you buy them?
>>719302760>Sóyboy plus animu shitpplementsYour bald and silly beard emanate from this pic like radiation.
>>719301478Cheese ones (the one in OP's pic) taste like shit. Every other flavor is at least decent
>>719302810I buy them in bulk on Amazon (still do).10 for $32. Thats $3.30 a box. And I only eat half a box a day. So $1.70 for daily breakfast that is effortless? Its worth it.>>719302865Ive stopped caring about shame a long time ago
Is this the game fuel thread? What are you guys eating?
>family friend works in a army surplus store and gives me some extra US MREs as gifts>try out a US MRE out of curiosity >it's basically just canned food but neato packaging that you can use the self heating element to cook withdidn't taste bad or anything, but I can definitely see how soldiers would get sick of canned food quality after a while
>>719302943yea the whole point is its just a meal you can shove in a bag and not have to worry about it, everything included
>>719302931bullshit i can't find it on amazon. post link or gtfo.
>>719302943Well it would stand to reason they would not make them taste bad. Moral reasons. I have seen a lot of military guys say the food in their mess halls is quite good, because it is the one thing of luxury that can be equal among everyone.They found out through war that men will defect and refuse to even fight when you give them nothing to fight for.
>>719301540give this anon a calorie mate
>>719302785>It is kind of an oddity that they became an iconic staple in Japanand it only took two nukes to get them to do that,imagine what could've been accomplished with three or even four
>>719303156
regain in MGS4 was utter kinohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eYeut0t020
>>719303156those shortbread fingers are delicious
>>719303120Here you gohttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CBN35VJ3Enjoy Anon, I only eat the chocolates but I think they are yummy. Basically if Nesquik was a bar
>>719302932Sister
>>719303286kek sasuga suneiku
>>719303156Is that really what they look like? I always pictured it being one giant brick with a consistency kind of like a cliff bar.
>>719303293REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>719301478Because you are ordering it from Japan, so it is subject to import/export horseshit.
>main ingredients: wheat flour, edible vegetable fats, sugar
I want this.
>>719303508>slop but with Eva label
>>719303552what is considered NOT slop in your vocabulary?
>>719303508you can buy lean cuisine in your local supermarket
>>719301478>40.7g sugar
>>719303635Yes.Sugar is intrinsically valuable because it's calorically dense, and it's why we crave it.
>>719301478Didn't these make miuras heart explode?
>>71930363540g of sugar for a meal replacement is not very much.
>>719303426>A>FUCKING>LEAF
Thread made me look up what MRE pricing is like and I'm surprised they're back down to about $75 for 24. A little over $3 per meal is a good deal for what you get in those.
>>719303913Living off MREs is very depressing.
>>719301478Just buy them in japan
>>719301540>why yes i am a retarded niggerfaggot that needs to be gassed. How could you tell?
>>719303969I wouldn't live off of them I just consider them a good alternative to things like TV dinners.
>>719302370yes you can?
>>719301478>>719301689Unlike you I've actually eaten these. I went to Japan and bought them while skiing. They have many flavors. I liked the choco ones. They're good. You can't fucking survive on them. They're just cookies, like from McDonalds. But they will fill you up.
>>719301478>Why is this so expensive on Amazon???Retarded weebs think its some sort of super nippon god food.
>>719303397They're just biscuits. Not bad or anything. But they are just biscuits. MGS3 overhypes them to hell.They're nice biscuits, though.
>>719303595Not overpriced foreign weebshit food for one.
Just go to your local supermarket and pick up a box of these. It's the same thing.
>>719304506god just imagine dipping these into a coffee or a hot choccy while it's raining outside
Fruit ones are the best. Cheese flavor was rancid as fuck. Either way they all make your mouth dry as fuck
>>719303426Hungry-Ninja sells them $4.50 each in Canada. However they're always past expiry (not that it matters for these nutrient bricks)
>>719301478These taste like shit.
>>719304578>Waiting for the rain
as someone living in japan, took me awhile to actually try these. i first tried the liquid version in the can and the fruity milk was absolutely horrifying. tried the blocks awhile later and they are just so fucking flavorless and don't taste remotely good. it's like normal shortbread but 3x more dry and devoid of any flavor outside of a hint of whatever the box says it is.someone in front of me today at family mart was buying this solely for lunch, he looked depressed. figures.
>>719302469It's literally just an old WW2 K-ration made with modern ingredientsI like the chocolate ones
>>719302221>It was probably one of the worst things I've eaten.What flavour did you eat? They're not great but "worst thing I've ever eaten" seems like a huge stretch unless you've somehow managed to never eat real bad food before.
>>719304312You absolutely can survive on them given you have enough water to counter the fact your ass is going to be destroyed by a river of shit.
>>719303694Women are NOT badthey just need to know their place like she does
If you want a meal replacement bar we have much better alternatives. Big fan of Met-Rx.
>>719303913I want to get some asian MREs but theyre impossible to find in the west
>>719301689Chocolate is alright, but they aren't something you'd eat because you want to eat a tasty snack. It's just a shortbread that fills you up a lot.It's pretty convenient when you are hungry but you aren't bothered to sit and eat, and you just want to satiate your hunger.Some straight up eats them to skip and speed-run a meal, probably not healthy though as they aren't a meal replacement like Onions, but it is pretty edible.
>>719304623>16 USD with shipping for 1 fuckin little 80g boxit better cure cancer
>>719304918You'd know if you've actually ate Calorie Mate but those bars are closer to a snack than a replacement bar.It's more tasty but stuffing yourself with that to actually satiate your hunger is just going to take you to the diabetes town.
>>719305008I knew they didn't allow the three-letter s word but didn't know they also filtered "soilent" too, lmao
>>719304870I did see someone do the meal replacement challenge, and using the bathroom after him was an experience i would rather forget.>The more she drank the more she shat the more she shat the more she drank.
>>719303156I had those walker's shortbread before and they were absolutely delicious. They gave me constipation though.
>>719304312yeah it's not a complete meal replacement, it's more like a meal-skip cheat whenever you're not bothered to eat
y'all niggas need to learn how to cookmake a proper meal with raw ingredients from the supermarket, not all this super processed pre-prepared stuff that needs to last for months
>>719303156>>719304506Calorie Mate is more dense than shortbread though, shortbread is tastier but you have to gobble a whole bowl of that if you want to use it to skip a meal
I got one of these as a joke to break a 10000 yen bill and it's one of the most depressing things I've eaten
>>719305480Yeah nigga and then you just stuff that cooked meat into your pocket and you're good to go for the whole day. STFU nigga you don't know shit. This shit is about having an energy source that won't spoil on the trail. It's something you keep as a reserve until you need it.
>>719301478>400 calories >only 8 grams of protein Disgusting
>>719305623At least it aint as bad as American chocolate.>Same chemical that is in human sick in every barI think i would take the cheese caloriemate over it.
>>719305623There sure are a lot of better bars. Most protein bars taste better than that thing.
>>719305123The metrx bar has less sugar/fat and more protein.
Calorie-mate isn't a proper meal replacement, they're a reasonably filling snack. Like a hybrid of a biscuit and hardtack. They're not magic but they have their place.
>>719305847>30 grams of protein >60% of recommended daily intake >50 grams of protein is recommended daily intake ????
I thought it was some kind of vidya item. Cook with fresh veggies/meat you lazy fucks.
>>719301478Because it's only from Japan and trump is tarriffing the shit out of everything, I.E. taxing the shit out of you.I also got some when I was in Japan, they taste like super dry and corse biscuits. Only the chocolate ones were even decent.
>>719301478>buy calorie mate>it smells like fucking assdon't ever buy this disgusting shit.
>>719305965Your drv of protein varies greatly depending on what you do and if you're currently trying to build/maintain muscle mass. If you are doing resistance training you want 0.7 to 1 gram of protein per pound you weigh. If you are overweight use your target weight for the calculation instead of your current weight.
>>719305878This. It's more useful than meal replacement because chugging meal replacement slurp is disgusting and depressing, but at the same time it's much more fulfilling than your usual protein bar so you can use it as a quick semi-meal.I wouldn't eat it everyday though, just whenever it's convenient to skip a meal.
>>719303791>>71930369440g is roughly my weekly sugar intake. That's way too much sugar for a single meal.
>>719305847and less fulfilling so you have to stuff a lot more of that in order to make it worthwhile to satiate your hunger, which means you'll end up taking more sugar and fat
>>719301478You know protein bars and MREs have existed for so long people pay extra, sometimes hundreds of dollars, to own 50 year old ones that are inedible go everyone but Steve?
>>719304763>unless you've somehow managed to never eat real bad food before.That's not that hard in a first world country.
>>719303694Why is her head so small?
>>719306393God people post the dumbest shit here
>>719301478Go eat a shortbread biscuit that isn't loaded with sugar. That's all it is.
>>719301478I'm scared to eat other variation of this aside from chocolatecheese and fruit cookie sounds horrible, maple sounds ok but I've never tried it, plain sounds depressing
>>719305965Protein is the shit, man. It's the least efficient energy source, but it repairs muscle. Great for cutting and burning fat.
>>719304879wdymbt anon
>>719306861It'd just cookies, man. Plain tastes like plain cookies. It's just crunchy bread. Imagine that texture, but with other flavors. Crunchy cheese, fruit, veggies, etc. IMO you should stick to choccy.
>>719302932Number 1 combo from Krystal, I just got off work
>>719306245>t. tubby talking about what he thinks are healthy eating habits
>>719307182post body fatty
>>719302943Most of the items are kinda meh tier, but there are some items that are the best thing I've eaten in my life, I'd order the lemon poppy seed pound cake thing
>>719307227
>>719304957Get the French ones they are legit like gourmet shit
>>719301540>Kojima sharing epic things he likes with you is... Le bad...
>>719301478What does this even taste like? A rice cake?
>>719307362It's a tea biscuit.
>>719307319I have a crate of all the different french ones, I never got around to opening them up though
>>719307434A fucking CRATE? Are you serious? You have a crate?
>>719307513I call it a crate but it's just 1x of every menu item
>>719307571Wow. I can almost understand those words, too.
>>719307362very dense short bread, you need water to gulp it down because it's dry as fuck, but it feels like it expands with water so it's quite fulfilling for its sizetaste wise you're better off eating cereal bars, but it's nothing offensive, chocolate is pretty good
>>719307571I hope they include the white flag
>>719303595Raw ingredients prepared at home culminating in a meal. No added sweeteners.
>>719302760>fell for them all award
>>719302760they are more of a meal skippers than a meal replacement so they aren't healthy, unless you are big fat burger who eats mcdonald for breakfast
the real meal skipper is a fresh cold gazpacho
>>719304870That...doesn't sound survivable
>>719307878No but you can make your own with the napkin and cutlery.
flavorcucks will overpay to import foreign biscuits instead of fasting
>>719308290How the fuck can you make your own cookies?
>>719308390>anime picture>poster is profoundly retardedwhy does this always happen?
>>719307332>the ads are a personal invitation to bond with the artist Holy fuck you are a complete mark lmao. Fucking late-stage shilling victim
>>719309002Does ye have a problemo with anime? At least anime sometimes involves cookie making and survivalism.
>>719309318>cookie makingyou utter and complete retard he was talking about making a white flag because of French MREs.At least post best girl from that anime you shit taste haver.
>>719309481Well I was talking about making cookies. You got a problem with making cookies?

>>719305847Why do all of these protein products have S̵o̶y̶ in them?
>>719312058only the shit ones, onions doesn't get absorbed as good as whey (milk)>Onions protein is a good plant-based alternative but has a less optimal amino acid profile, requiring higher intake for comparable muscle-building resultsso the best protein you can get is whey (milk) egg's or meat, we're not grazer.
