5.0 out of 5 stars unbeLIEVably good!, October 2, 2009

[UPDATE: This review refers to the Beef Patties with Cheesy Mashed Potatoes entree, which is what this product listing was reserved for when the review was originally posted. See comments for how to find that entree now. -Chris S.]

Do you want to store food at home that, along with a means of boiling water, could get you easily through an emergency (such as a hurricane, a power outage, or a week isolated at home with the flu)? Do you have family members of the old meat-and-potatoes type who can't imagine being satisfied with canned or freeze-dried entrees? Then this dish is for you. My husband, trying to be supportive, agreed grimly to try a Mountain House meal or two from our local sporting goods store in support of my plan to identify emergency foods to store at home. But he wasn't happy, even though he agreed with surprise that the Mountain House beef stew wasn't too bad after all. Then we stumbled on this as our second experiment. Wow. He asked me 3 times, all... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Lightweight and delicious, October 3, 2010

I go ultralight backpacking, so deciding what food to pack is a serious concern. I prefer Mountain House freeze dried meals for a number of reasons:
1. They weigh practically nothing. A two-serving meal weighs only 5 oz and equals 20 oz of food after adding water.
2. They taste like homemade meals. It's what I look forward to eating after a long day of hiking.
3. They're satisfying. They don't just fill you up, they stick to your ribs and keep you from getting hungry again for hours.
4. They couldn't be easier to use. The top of the bag tears off correctly every time, no tools needed. Remove the oxygen absorbing packet (which is nontoxic). Add the specified amount of boiling water and zip the bag closed for 8-9 minutes. The pouch stands up by itself and the meal can be eaten with just a fork or spoon, no dishes to clean! The empty pouches can disappear right into a campfire or are light enough to pack out.

I have tried the Chicken Teriyaki with Rice,... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Good food, bad packaging., November 17, 2010

Pretty much everything under this brand name suffers from over-packaging: There's a ton of wasted material outside the heat-sealing, and way too much empty space inside, even after adding the indicated amount of water. Also, the claim of "Serves two" is fanciful at best - I (an athletic 70kg female) could easily polish one of these off by myself after a day of even moderate activity.

What's inside this package is pretty much the best you're going to get out of readily-available dehydrated food, though - good texture, decent (if overly sugary) flavor, 100% edible either cooked or dry, nothing to complain about aside from the complete lack of veggies (Not that I'm implying these should be balanced for long term consumption. Just saying it'd be nice to see some green in there.)
