Pros & Cons
Pros
It is a little more saucy than fried rice, but i suppose you can use less water. The chicken fried rice is one of my favorite meals now. I have to say i think mountain house is probable the best.
Very filling, even after a really long hard day of backpacking.
Cons
These new recipes are horrendous. Sad camper. This meal has milk in it, and is not safe for those with dairy allergies!
Highlights
Quality
This freeze dried meal is easy to make (just add boiling water - or even tap water).
The already great flavor was made even more enjoyable by adding salt & pepper after heating.
Tasted great, but didn't rehydrate well at over 10,000 ft, even after more than doubling rehydration time.
I went with a cup and the meal had an almost an oatmeal quality.
Price
Very tasty meals and for a good price
Perfection, and inexpensively almost doubled the amount of food - probably enough to feed 3-4 people out in the woods.
In my opinion, it is only enough to satisfy half to two-thirds of a hungry man's meal, but considering the price, it's still acceptable.
If the price comes back down to pre-pandemic levels, i'll stock up.
Shipping
They arrived in tact, no damage and with 20 year storage date.
Packaging/appearance
I enjoyed the pleasant taste and texture of the food in the packet, would definitely be looking to try the other ones for sure.
Have not tasted the product yet but package was good and arrived as advertised
Competitiveness
I'm not real hard to please on the trail but this is one of the better meals i've had.
I have tried all the other freeze dried company foods on the market which are good to okay but just prefer mountain house foods.
