OK not really, my mom wasn't that great of a cook. This stuff was better than her cooking.
Taste pretty much like a you basic "hamburger helper" style stroganoff. I really liked the taste if anything I might add a pinch of salt to it, but again I ate it as is and I liked it.
The day I ate it was not a particularly physical day, and the amount was just right. On a long day of hike I tend to eat quite a bit more and this wouldn't have been enough to satisfy my hunger. I think most hikers already have a pretty good idea of the amount they need per day, but I thought I'd point this out in case anyone was debating the amount.
I saw a video and read many reviews of how you need to get the two serving entree instead of the one serving entree. Backcountry was out of the 2 serving entrees so I ordered a couple of the 1 serving entrees instead. Made the mistake of making both of them one night out on the trail and didn't eat the other one because the first serving was PLENTY. And I eat a lot, too. It's just so filling that 1 serving is plenty. Super delicious, too.
After over-stocking my pack, I actually dined on this a few days after a two day packing trip. Tasty entree and the sauce didn't make a huge mess. One tip: use a bit less water than suggested (12 oz v. 14 oz); you'll wind up with less funky bear bait to pack out.
I like this meal quite a bit. I wish it had a bit stronger flavor but it was good. I have only tried it in the two-serving size. I think the single serving size is my next food purchase. I like the more compact packaging.
This is pretty good for a dehydrated food for backpacking. One of these serves two, and it is really filling. Cook then let sit for 9 minutes to set up and serve. Light weight and really packable.
One of the best dehydrated meal ever, the only rival is lasagne. One is usually enough to do ya right. I always save my strog for a celebratory meal after I crush a peak out.
This is a tasty meal either as a stand alone or suplement to a seperately prepared meat. Plenty of food for 2. It's a little bland so add some pepper and garlic for better flavor.
This stuff is so yummy. Seriously, I would eat this at home as a regular meal. Whenever I backpack with this stuff, I actually look forward to dinner time.
This meal tasted pretty good. I absolutely hate mushrooms so I had to pick those out. Guess I need to read the package next time.
Was needing some energy on a cold day above the timberline and this really hit the spot. I literally licked the bag clean.
It's a very nice concept, with the vacuum packaging for very high elevations. However, it will only work at elevations over 16,000 ft, below that, the regular packaging works just as well, even from the sea level, and packs more stuff for the money.
As for the taste, it's ok when you just need to stuff yourself with some dehydrated junk food after a day of climbing, but the meat in it tastes like dog food. And looks like it too.
Easy preparation & clean-up. Pro-Pak size is nice when limited pack space is an issue. Portion size & taste is adequate when you're hungry. Three times more sodium then necessary. Like everything else, READ THE LABEL!
