Pros & Cons

Pros

For quick and easy backpacking food, this cannot be beat. Pro separate them into two portions and put each in a ziplock bag. In my bag, there was a large uncut strip of chicken.

The “two serving “might be a little scant for two people but with a few additions (salad,fruit,rolls etc) it makes a perfect meal.

Non-gmo, yet still has a shelf life of 30 years. Durable multi-use packaging. Expiration date is years in the future.

This meal is gluten-free since my so has real deal celiac. I really like to have meal options that aren't some boring chili or stew kind of thing. This is one of the better meals that i have tried by mountain house.



Cons

Pad thai is just strong fish aroma and taste from start to finish. It has a strong fish smell and taste.

Having this for a normal lunch, it was just as tasty as when camping and a pretty good value for 10 bucks.


Nice addition to the "hurricane kit", or for a stay at home meal (they are cheaper than getting fast food take out, here in hawaii anyway).


The mountain house portion sizes are unfortunately small lately, this was about $2.


These aren't overly expensive considering the shelf life, portability, convenience, and yummmm factor.

Packaging/appearance


Delicious,satisfying, packed with flavor 4 star only because i ate the entire bag.


Another plus is that the packet sits sturdily upright while cooking, and retains its shape well enough to eat directly from the pouch.


Package says 2 servings but it's a good portion for 1.


Which if you backpack is a primary issue when packing provisions.

Competitiveness


Beats the other brands by far in taste and and a hefty 30 yr shelf life provides some security for me and my family should anyt...  Read More


Last pack trip we all had different brands of same flavor, and this was by far the best.


These are also apparently the meals issued as lrp rations used by the us military to augment mres.


It was brand x compared to this brand and one of the commenters said they tried both brand x and this brand and said these were...  Read More
