Freeze dried backpacking meals definitely have their place, and we really wanted to help you plan your next backpacking trip without having to stress about which meal to choose (or better yet, which meals to NOT choose).
So, our stomachs are your guinea pigs this week as we rank the best and worst backpacking meals on the market. We chose to only use Mountain House and Backpacker's Pantry this week, as they are some of the most common and readily found brands. However, we'd love to do this again with other brands too!
If you liked this video, let us know if you'd like to see more! We could do a vegetarian/vegan version, a breakfast version, and other brands that may be able to compete with these top two brands. I also am excited to chat more about how to dehydrate your own meals (starting next week?!)!
Which meal are we missing out on? Share all of your favorites below!

Super helpful, thanks. Can't wait for your homemade dehydrated meals videos & recipes!

Subscribed. I might suggest dumping the sporks and going for long titanium spoons instead. I've eaten rehydrated MREs for decades and the spork just doesn't add anything since it's a terrible fork and a terrible spoon at the same time. A spoon can almost always stand in for a fork and you can just stab something with a knife if you really need a fork, and in many cases, grabbing two sticks for chopsticks works even better.
Can't wait to dig through your homemade dehydrated recipes. I just got a dehydrator and I think I've eaten more beef jerky in the past month than in my whole life

Great reviews! Would love to see some more vegeterian options

Love all of your videos! I love to create a lot of my own food/meals for backpacking and would love to hear more from you about making your own dehydrated meals! Another favorite go to for me if I need to purchase some and since I prefer organic/high quality ingredients and minimal/no additives, etc is Heather’s Choice.

In my opinion Mountain House pad Thai is WAY better than the Backpackers Pantry pad Thai! Though it has more stir fry flavour and less traditional pad Thai flavour - it’s almost good enough to eat at home! I’ve also heard great things about Mountain House yellow curry but have yet to try it myself.
I would be super interested in videos on DIY dehydrated meals!

Enjoyed your reviews. Would like to see some videos showing how to dehydrate meals too.

Mac and Cheese is a hard one, but also one I lean towards while backpacking. I tried the AlpineAire Forever Young Mac and Cheese last year on a backpacking trip and it ranks above all other Mac and cheese ones that I've tried. Definitely has that creamy flavor of a true Mac and cheese!

Wish I was your age and as brave. Just saw that hike up a weird rock formation which got scarier by the foot ! Admiration!
|
Got notified on IG! Loved this!!! Always curious about how these taste. I would say, after filming I would move the monstera closer towards the window :)

The pad Thai with chicken or just the pad Thai is my favorite one too!
|
Thanks for the perspectives! I definitely think freeze dried meals have a place in our options for food while adventuring and I use them too.
I'm very interested in some of your dehydrated meal suggestions! I've been experimenting with DIY stuff as well and I've perfected some unusual meals like backcountry Fondue and protein pancakes.
Looking forward to seeing what you share!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this 👏🏼 🫶🏼

Great video. Would love to see you try some Peak Refuel meals. In my experience, I have not enjoyed any backpacker's pantry meals.
|
Loved the video! Beef stroganoff has always been a go to for me. Also interested in trying the pad Thai.
Also like those bowls you used! Can I ask where they are from?

You should check out Pinnacle - small batch meals from CO are amazing! High in calories and actually taste like meals you’d cook at home.
|
Give the Peak Refuel stroganoff a try. MH was our favorite, but the Peak Refuel is much better. We would eat it at home.
|
9:22 Beef stroganoff is one of my safe bets but at elevation the beef doesn’t always soften like you’d want 😮
|
“do you like it?” 😂😂😂😂

Omg, would you consider teaching us how to dehydrate our food and what kinds of meals you take?
