Backpackers & Campers: Stock Up on Mountain House Freeze Dried Expedition Bucket for Your Next Adventure!

Marcos Torres: Easy to make with Hot or cold water I ate all of these meals.
Some of them were what you’d expect from freeze dried meals and others were like gourmet meals straight from the kitchen.
Kept me fed for 2 weeks but could’ve done more if I actually used each bag for two portions.

George: Where to start... first off, it's VERY light. For the amount of food you'll get, it can be easily lifted with one hand, or a child or elderly woman. That's great news for preppers who plan of storing this as anyone in your family can lift the entire bucket. I was genuinely surprised at how light a fully filled bucket was. The lid is a bit annoying to remove (partially because it doesn't fully come off... one end is permanently sealed and the plastic breaks/bends open about 3/4th along the top, allowing you to open and seal the bucket without losing/misplacing the lid. How you'd do that, I don't know, but it's nice that they thought of this) and takes opening and closing it a bunch of time to "loosen" the plastic so you're not ripping your finger nails off every time. A small lip along the edge would have been nice but honestly this is the *only* complaint I have.

If you need to leave your home/location for any reason, the meals can be easily thrown into a backpack or satchel and carried with almost zero weight added. Because each meal is made for two people, they are a bit bulkier than single meal packages but honestly not by much. And since they're freeze dried and all...

ZoZo: The flavor variety is very nice. The bucket is the best way to buy! There is a bit of room to add more of the individual flavor packages. Great texture and the instructions are perfect

James Reid: Purchased these on sale and was surprised they actually taste pretty good just make sure your pretty exact about how much water to add. These are also the first freeze dried meals I've ever tried so that may or may not be saying much but I'll definitely enjoyed them on my backtracking trips. Only downside is I didn't realize one of the packs had ingredients I'm highly allergic too which I always check the packsas they're listed on them but it would have been nice if the ingredients were listed before I bought and opened up the bucket.
