Survival Cooking Part V

More food!
Next on the list of fun survival foods I tried was Mountain House dehydrated hiking food.
While these are lightweight hiking options, they definitely lacked in taste and substance. First off, after the magic of MREs, getting single servings of food with no internal variety just isn't nearly as cook. Next off, you actually have to boil water and add it to the food, then wait for it to cook and rehydrate? What's up with that? :P As a hungry college student, with a college rush for time, I will gladly take a mysterious instant-heat package over waiting for water to boil any day.
Furthermore, when it takes several minutes to discriminate between the ingredients of the meal in order to figure out which one is the meal, it's just not a good sign...
Sorry, Mountain House! You just can't quite live up to the competition.
