Summary
After trying almost every freezed dried food out there, this is one of the better ones. Flavor is a little salty but overall tasty!
Pros
- Weight — very light
- Flavor
- Speed in prep
Cons
- Little salty
- If feeding two people recommend a side dish
- Too much for one person, not enough for two....
This is one of my favorite dinners, it has good flavor and would highly recommend it. I used just slightly less water than recommended and the consistency was good (too many of these look and resemble soup — this one did not).
I would say it was not enough of a meal for two of us, but would have been too much for myself. I would recommend having a side dish with this to provide two people a filling meal. Package was standard for Mount. House, so nothing special.
But for backpacking, it really is one of the few I would recommend trying!
