WISE food?

[ctwiggs1]

Anyone else agree with me that MH eggs are probably the worst thing ever for freeze dried food?

Try the egg omelette MRE. 

OK just kidding please don't.  I wouldn't wish that on anybody.

A few guys on the forum told me about the bacon, pb and honey bagels for backpacking. I thought it was weird at first but after I tried a few I was hooked. Little on the heavy side though. I have seen REI advertise other freeze dried brands besides MH but I haven't gotten around to trying them yet.

They sent me some samples and all had trans-fat so I gave them away.  I sent in some feedback and got into a ridiculous discussion with the rep about how you simply can't make a FD meal without TF.  I sent him the ingredients of similar or exact meals from his competitors that didn't have them.

For me, it was a deal breaker.  There are other options that are better.

Mix them with biscuits and gravy, and they are great!

Well I just got a 60 serving entrée kit. We will see how taste testing goes.

Only thing I don't like is I was hoping for individual servings. They are all packages as 4 person servings in this kit.

Usually when I pull one out, I'm hoping it feeds 4 people so I don't have to cook 2

[carpsniperg2]

  I know the feeling. In the field that's fine I was just meaning to taste test. That way I could pass more out to a few people to try.

There is a few that sound tasty and might not be to bad.

[MtnMuley]

Gotcha. Let us know. I'm going with a few HC this year in the mix with MH and would happily try some new flavors in the MH quality of meal.

Will do here is the list of what same in the bucket of 60 servings. I am looking forward to the pot pie/lasagna and southwest rice and beans. Them and a couple soft tacos!! YUM well hopefully

[MtnMuley]

I would agree. Especially the SW rice n beans and pasta n veggies with a grouse or two fried and diced in

So what you guys are saying is you won't eat the chili mac but you will spend the next 2 hrs after your meal scraping the "cheese" from the lasagna off your spork 

[carpsniperg2]

  You know it!

[MtnMuley]

Hey, I like the chili mac

[RadSav]

Better to scrape cheese off the spork than use the spork to scrape your shorts clean the next morning.

Seriously though, add a hot dog to it, it adds extra lube the next morning
