Mountain House Chicken Fried Rice | Freeze Dried Backpacking & Camping Food | Survival & Emergency Food | Gluten-Free

We bought these freeze dried meals for some storage for emergencies. This is the second one we have tasted and used for dinner. The meal was tasty and easy to prepare. It’s an easy as open pouch, take out and throw away oxygen absorber, pour in 1 1/2 cups of boiling water, stir carefully and reseal pouch. Let stand for 4 mins and eat. Good for 25 years. All nutrition stats are on the back of the pouch. We shared the dinner between two of us and I cooked some extra rice as my husband is a big eater. I made some bread and sides. This is supposed to be 2 serving sizes and the dry mix makes one cup per serving. This is survival and camping food so for a bigger eater we have made sure we have some extra. The rice contains chicken, eggs, green peas, onions and carrots. Mountain House has several different recipes and this one is gluten free. For freeze dried food I believe it’s a good value with a good taste. I would just say if used for emergencies and you have a big eater I would store more meals and make sure you have different foods with different textures. I will happily purchase more of these.

I bought these to put in my cabin as an addition for long term food storage. Gotta have chow in The Zombie Apocalypse right? Or hurricane, tornado, earthquake. the next Democrat Pres or... Expensive food. ! I'll let you know how good they are after the next disaster. Gunny G USMC
