Comments:
I was astounded by how yummy these meals were. I'd rate this a 4 1/2 if I could...only b/c the garlic herbed mashed potatoes were awful (the only one in the pack I didn't like). It also would've been nice if the omelettes were eat-from-the-bag, as with the scrambled eggs (not included with this pack). I also appreciated the mesh bag provided. We took these on a 3-night canoeing trip to the Boundary Waters in MN--made retrieving and organizing our meals a bit easier.

Comments:
The cheesecake and the granola are the easiest to make; you just add cold water. We ate these on the trail. Most of the others require only adding hot water. However the apple cobbler and the eggs require to much cooking for my taste.

My husband and I love the ease of clean-up and the no fuss packing when we take our backpacking just-add-water meals. This set of vegetarian meals works perfectly for us for a weekend trip and the price on stp is the only way that we could afford the meals.

This is pretty good stuff considering it's freeze dried. I've has some that aren't that great, but eat them because I was hungry (and it was the only choice). This food was all tasty and something that I have already bought more of. Especially because it's such a great deal.
