(More customer reviews)We bought this for a hike down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon last week, thinking that it would provide us with a quick and easy as well as a tasty meal after a long 8 hour strenuous hike to the Colorado river. We were looking forward to a nice hot meal instead of just cooked meats and bread for sandwiches. After eating salty nuts and chips all day, we were not expecting a gourmet meal but something more along the lines and quality of a frozen dinner. Boy, were we wrong ! It looked like nothing in the picture. The potato was dry and almost a solid mass with the slices of turkey embedded in it. You could tip the whole tray upside down and it would not fall or drip out. We were prepared to give the first one the benefit of being one bad packet, but when all four that we took with us turned out that way, we were very disappointed. We looked for other explanations to make sure we weren't doing anything wrong in preparing it, but the whole package is sealed at all times during the heating process, so there is no way of moisture evaporating or leaking out of the package. We also heated it for longer and shorter than the durations stated in the instructions - no change.
We were hungry so had to eat it, but we should have taken sandwiches - they would have tasted better, weighed less and most of all cost much less. We had low expectations, but even then were extremely disappointed.
