| I can't tell you how pleasantly surprised my father and I were when we 'cooked' up our squashed package of Louisiana Red Beans & Rice by Backpacker's Pantry. We wondered if it was just the result of being in the wilderness of the Smoky Mountains that led to our taste bud ecstacy, but the next few days' meals put an end to that hypothesis. It was really that good. Our 4th night's meal was the subject of many a conversation for the rest of the trip. Not to mention the constant praise during the actual meal. No one could have done a better commercial than us that night. Now of course, taste is not necessarily objective; so maybe you will read this, try it out, and then curse my screen name in some far away forest. I can only speak for my Dad and I, who certainly don't usually eat spicy beans and rice, but man it was good. So if you're from 'down south' and think this stuff is garbage, please send me some of YOUR beans and rice. Seriously, I must have it. Oh and after you finish the meal, it would be wise to stay back from the camp fire and open all tent flaps. Trust me. | |

| A very tasty meal although a bit salty. But then all packaged meals are salty. We had this as dinner after a hard days walk. It tasted good. Spices were just right - not bland and not too spicy to give a heartburn. Granted we were tired, but this was a good meal. Enjoyed it throughly - and it is one of the least expensive meals. | |

| Tastes great, but is a bit bland for "Louisiana" fare; we add some hot sauce to it, and then it is great. Let it sit for a few minutes longer than the package instructions say, and you'll be a happy camper. | |

| 2 Good-sized portions of a very nice veggie entree. Spicy and easy to fix. I get this one with every batch of backpacking food I buy. | |

| This was one of the better Backpacker Pantry products that we tried on a recent long weekend trip. All in all, it isn't that bad (better than MRE food), but it does require longer to cook than the directions indicate and is rather lackluster. I'd recommend this for breakfast, but I can't see it sustaining two active hikers as a lunch or dinner. It's cheap, lightweight, and easy to prepare - beyond that, don't set too high of expectations. We'll probably buy this again, but I would not rely on it to fill up two people under any circumstances. | |

OK, but not spicy. | |

| I won't say it isn't flavorful... because, I do like the taste. It isn't SPICY though. It's like, a Midwesterner's version of a Louisiana dish... not a Louisianan's version of a Louisiana dish. | |
