A bit conflicted?
let me start by saying this is really tasty, so if taste is your most important consideration when choosing backpacking meals, i think you'll really like this! so what's keeping me from rating it at 5 stars? two things really: first of all, this has the longest soak time of just about any bp food i've had. it stated 25 minutes, but i found it took even longer than that. when i'm tired and hungry after a long day on the trail, it's a bit disappointing to have to wait that long to eat. more critical to me was the price. there are plenty of tasty meals on the market that offer more than twice as many calories for the same price, or even less. i'm willing to pay a premium for a meal if it's really good, but not 2.5 times as much as i'd pay for some of the other brands out there. tl;dr: tasty, but not worth the price. won't order again.
