nat geo food

[littlebuf]

came home and my wife had a new dehydrated food she found at the store. packaging is smaller and lighter than mountain house and the calories per ounce seem to be higher. looking at a cheesy broccoli pouch right now. 8.47 oz. and 1100 calories.i already love how much more compact the packaging is. ill find out this weekend up at elk camp if i love how they taste. found a link, and there not on amazon yet. im going to be trying more flavors this year.

almost forgot. they seem to be cheaper too. these ones were 5.49 @ walmart

8.47 at 1100 calories are you serious? if so its a sheep hunters dream

 

[littlebuf]

says two servings in pouch at 550 a serving. net weight on the front is 8.47. this looks like good stuff, my wifes going to pick up some more next week. she said there were several flavors. ill post a pick of one next to a mountain house. its really a improvement in pack ability

 

[Matt Cashell]

That is a good find.

[littlebuf]

Thanks for the heads up Trevor. I'm going to try them out.

Good find! Hope they taste alright, can always use more options.

 

[William Munny]

Thanks. Even if they taste mediocre, I might carry them over MH based on packability. Unless you pay extra for the pro packs, they take up a lot of space.

Wow there must be a ton of cheese packed around that broccoli to hit 1100 calories! Haha

I'll give em a shot. I'll be backpacking for 7 weeks straight this fall so I'm sure I could use as much variety as I can possibly get.

[Tony Trietch]

Wow! That's a lot of calories per ounce. Make sure and let us know how they taste.

That's just your wife's position. We appreciate the head's up.

Anymore I find it best just to get it out of the way early. I'll report back on taste and how the smaller pouch works. One thing right off the bat is it's the size I have to cut the mountain house packs down to after cooking just to get my spoon in there.

Sounds to me like you have a problem with the length of your utensil

Are you going to try these bad boys out this weekend?

Glad I checked out this thread, both informative and amusing. Just like any other thread involving littlebuf.
