I liked it. | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| I actually like this product. I find it tastes fine when out on the trail and it has a high number of calories compared to the amount of sodium when compared to other comparable foods. Still, it is what it is, and it can be watery and may take longer to cook at elevations over 10,000 feet. My recommendation is to add half the hot water to the bag to begin cooking the dried food, and then before you go to eat it add the last half. That way your food will be warm or possibly even hot since cook time can be long and it tends to get cold in those thin bags. | |

Freeze dried never tasted so good. | |

| I had this meal for dinner on my final night of a 3 day trip in Shenandoah, and it was amazing. Making it was an extremely low maintenance affair, and cleanup was so easy it was a joke. Aside from a bag of GORP I brought along, all of my food was freeze dried or dehydrated and I can easily say that this was the gastronomic highlight of my trip. It's like a good Indian restaurant in a bag. This will definitely be a mainstay of future multi-day trips. | |

There are better choices! | |

| My wife and I tried out four different Backpacker Pantry meals on a recent trip, and this was not one of the better ones! The curry flavor was bland and uninspiring, and the overall effect was lackluster and barely edible. It was a challenge for us to finish the bag, and if we weren't down to our last meal on the trip (and last bit of food) we'd have fixed up something else and packed out the leftovers. The general consensus was that this has a ways to go to catch up with military issue MRE packets, and that is not a compliment by a long shot. | |

Stay Away | |

| This tasted like a package of dried weeds. Probably one of the most disgusting things I've ever eaten. Although I put the correct amount of water in, and actually let it sit for longer than necessary, the food never fully reconstituted. I couldn't really identify most of the "food" in it. The flavor was horrible. I would feed this to a dog, but not to a human. I had a similar experience with another Backpacker's Pantry meal. Just stay away from this brand in general. Mountain House is the only way to go! I will never buy a Backpacker's Pantry meal again. | |

HOT HOT HOT! | |

| When I got this item, I really didn't think it would be that hot, but it is. It fed me, but it was one of the worst meals I have had from BP. If you can't eat spicy, then STAY AWAY. | |

Maybe not. . . | |

| I didn't mind the level of spicyness (the red peppers came in a separate bag, so you can titrate to taste), but it just didn't really taste very good. I did fill me up, all the same. | |

okay, but too watery | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| okay flavor but we were disappointed by how watery it was. The ingredients didn't cook well and the rice was hard. Also, it caused some heartburn and bloating. | |
