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!
