Loved it
I apparently like my food more bland. :) I used many different backpacking meals on my 2024 AT thru hike, this one is my all time favorite. I would add one packet of olive oil to the meal so bumping the calories up to close to 1000 which was awesome. One of the few packaged backpacking meals I would look forward to on the trail. Thanks Good-to-go.
Decent flavor, use less water
Good flavor, too watery. Recommend less water and it took a long while to hydrate. I was at 12,000ft, so expected some extension of time, seemed excessive. if had not been in a coozy it would have got cold.
So tasteless
I bought this meal on the CT at a Leadville outfitter. I was so happy at first to find a meal that was free of gluten and dairy products but after tasting it on the trail I found that it was also free of all flavor. I've never eaten a dehydrated meal so bland and flavorless as this. That motivated me to donate another meal of the same brand to a Hiker box later. Sorry, the manufacturer probably has good intentions but please, for the love of God, put some spices in your meals!
Extremely bland
I was hoping this would be amazing because it does sound amazing - unfortunately not the case. The Risotto was super bland, we ate it at the campfire and I am just glad this is not the only meal I brought to a backpacking trip. It needs so many more spices and quite a bit less water than instructed
Trail food
Needed more on the spices department. It was sort of bland.
