Wow... I gave up on AvE around the time of the Canadian Truckers protests. It seemed like his videos were going more sndnmore into conspiracy BS instead of "making cool shit on the internet." Sad to hear about his further decline.

Interestingly, that same advice was offered to recruits in U.S. Marine Corps boot camp for the final series of tests and challenges, known as The Cruicible. We were directed to put the salt and sugar packets from our MREs into our canteens
