Mountain House review#2

[TheMoneyIsMyMine]

Thank you very much for the review. I appreciate it. I've been looking at buying these and wanted to know. Safe journeys.

i went backpacking last summer and ate this and the mountain house spagjetti ( which is basicailly the same thing) and these never failed me.

[leroywint]

WOW. lasagna! are u a cook?

[sarge727]

CLOSE THE PACKAGE!!!!!!!!!! 

[fullmetaljason]

That cheese coats my spoon hardcore also but i still love the lasagna.

[destroyer820]

I'm gathering Mountain House products for emergency puproses, not hiking or climbing, but I must say that if I was in a Hurricane Katrina situation that I would be more than pleased to eat Moutian House products..they really are good, not perfect, but good and worth the effort.

[mcknightzer23]

if you add a little butter it would bring that fatty flavor back to the meal

[nolobede]

Wait.... Is Tinny using a jet boil ??? WTF?

[shaneshopnet]

check out shaneshop (dot) net for mountain house foods

[OldDogsCanLearn]

that's for trying it out for us Tinny! I also liked your videos on your own vacuum packed meals that you pack. keep the good stuff coming and send us more stuff from you on the trail. Thanks!

[maximuslt90]

wow i was scared you would die from the carbon monoxide lol but thank you for this little video....really looking into getting these

[johnmonk66]

The stores around me only sell these two meal bags, why can't we find single meal bags?

[seccat]

Was Tinny using a stripped down JetBoil? I think he shorten the pot and removed the unnecessary black plastic parts and neoprene to conserve weight.

[tigerboyav]

yes he stripped down a jet boil and i believe that he put one of his own pots in it

[xxColin]

mmmm

The pro packs are great you can order all their products from there site. I live not far from the manufacture plant. They have a lot of different meals.

[MosquitoFood]

I agree that these are a good freeze-dried products. Keep in mind folks that some of these portions have a good slug of vitamin B12 and, if eaten in the evening, might prevent restful sleep. I will eat these sorts of freeze-dried foods but look for the B 12 content if I plan on eating it for supper. Happy trails.

[enjoythewildUSA]

I love this dish. Had it yesterday while backpacking.

[Canadarago]

Two things about backpacking meals:

1. Stir really well as soon as you get the water in as Tinny is doing. If you don't you'll get a lot of unhydrated (crunchy when you don't want crunchy) bits later. This goes double for meals with rice.

2. After you seal the bag, try wrapping it in a fleece to keep it hot. The food will hydrate more completely - it's never too hot to do anything to the fleece.

I love the lasagna, but one gripe about it.

Its the same thing Tinny encountered. The melted cheese will coat your spoon, and you can't just lick it off. It takes a bit of work to scrape off completely. But it is GOOD!!!

[shad0h027]

Agreed. It's worse when it's really, really cold out, too. But good stuff!

[yakyakyak69]

Personally, I'd like to see some more of YOUR home maid recipes. Your dehydrating & packaging videos were VERY helpful for those who would rather make their own.

[yakyakyak69]

Tinny, These reviews are great, but if you would just dump the rehydrated meal into a bowl and show them to us we would get a much better idea of the look and consistency etc. Thanks!

[tigerboyav]

tinny no dont use that canister of crap (the effing jet boil) use the bongo or voodoo or the blackfly 2 one of them!!!!!!!!!!!

[jimrbsn]

Mr. Tinny... you replied that the bacon and eggs are good... I agree, they are bretty darn good! I had less than great results with the (scrambled eggs w/ ham and red and green peppers).

All and all... MH makes really good stuff!

[MaximumDensity1]

I made my last comment before the end of the video. LOL.

I still hold to what I asked though. I would like any more ideas for DIY meals.

[MaximumDensity1]

I really enjoyed the videos you made on dehydreating and making your own pack meals. Do you have any more "DIY recopies""?

[AJourneyOfYourSoul]

Great reviews. Keep them coming.

[therealsurvivorman]

I got from walmart the beef stew its really good /

[Ggreenvideos]

Good to know! Thanks for that :o)

[skecthy1234]

Great,

[12fitzgerald]

luv your vids and reviews!your audio is intense compaird to your old shed,maybe hang up a few blankets untill you get it finished and furnished.keep it comming you got me excited about wondering around the wilderness the way i did years ago and take my kids.over and out from the northcoast of america

[timdogg51]

I have to agree with you the Chili mac is a little bit better. Walmart sells the beef stew also and with a little hot sauce it is excellent.

[locke6206]

Thanks Tinny! This kind of review is definitely what I like seeing. I hate to pay 6 or 7 dollars for a freeze dried meal and find out that it is horrible. Thanks for sharing!

[FatherJudgement]

I read on the Mountain house wesite reviews that two cups of water was too much water, But yur review looked great...Thanks my freind

[aokspage]

great review

[ArmoredSheepdog]

Hi Tinny. If one were planning macronutrients around a young athlete for instance (say 120-200 grams of protein/day), do you think hamburger gravel added to the mountain house meals would be a cost effective way to bump up the daily protein without resorting to protein powders?

[minibulldesign]

I don't know but I think you could not get that much from hamburger?

[LukeLikesToHike]

Try the Mountain House noodles & chicken...also very good.

[tain4x4]

this is the best tasting one i have tried
