Backpacking Kit Premium Lightweight Resealable Review

Bought this product for a 10 day hike and loved it! It's easy to prep food ahead of time (just mix it up in plastic bags and then simmer it in a small saucepan for about 10 minutes while you eat). The provided menus were a good starting point for meal ideas - I loved each of the dishes I prepared from the suggested menus as well as the ones I created. The "set" has a wide variety of dishes at a great price.

Although we were only out on the lawn of our condo and not in the woods we decided to try a few of these first before relying on them for a long hike. We used our fire pit to recreate the situation we would be cooking in, including being outside in 10 degrees Fahrenheit. These are well prepared. We have our own hiking spices which we usually bring - once added they became quite attractive. I can only imagine how good they will taste after walking a few miles through the woods. Definitely worth…

So I bought it to combine and make my own combination meals for hiking. This way I can add any meat or other fresh ingredients, but at least I already have dried veggies and rice I can buy separately. Good idea, but I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong. I can't make any of these items more than durable enough. We speak harder than al dente! As a camping meal mostly inedible in my opinion due to too much water and cooking time. After all, even the ones that seem to work look like they are…

This is my second box. I used this product on my first bike ride. I drove through remote areas with no services or grocery stores. It's lightweight and I've been able to pack groceries for three weeks without taking up too much space or adding too much weight. Despite everything, corn was always too tough. But everything else was well cooked. When I got to camp, I threw whatever I wanted in a pot of water and let it soak for a bit before cooking. I brought my favorite spices to flavor the…

I gave this product to my girlfriend for her birthday and we were very happy with the meal. We brought back cabbage, onions, celery, potatoes and carrots from our recent hike and it was so nice to have a hot and hearty meal for dinner after a day of hiking. Since I was a pack mule, I was also happy because the dry food hardly weighed down my backpack. I cannot fully recommend this product. Some things to watch out for: 1) Because these foods are dried, they consume a significant amount of water

Excellent product. I first saw him hike the Application Trail through Franklin, NC, at a tourist hostel. Although I didn't buy it at the time, after drying my own fruit and veg I figured I'd give it a try for this year's hike. My wife was blown away by the number and variety of commonly used kitchen items in this box. I had to get them to promise "hands off" while I was at the campground to have these products shipped to me in discount boxes via USPS. This box contains recipes and you can cook…

Overall I rate this camping kit 4 stars because there are some vegetables that take a very long time to become hydrated. Peas would be a good example. Green beans don't seem to get too soft either. But in general everything is delicious in the soup or whatever you cook. I definitely agree with another reviewer who said kale tastes great on its own. In fact, the cabbage is so good I plan to purchase a gallon-sized container from the Harmony House website. I bought a sample set to be able to…

I bought this package for a trip of 5 days and I was very satisfied with the quality and quantity. I'm a health conscious foodie and outdoor enthusiast and I refuse to give up delicious and healthy food just because I'm in the country. The vegetables were extremely aromatic and tasted great - the packaged dishes were very jealous. I mixed and matched the items in this pack (plus some additional external ingredients as noted) to create the following dishes: - Mexican bean and vegetable mix…
