The problem that I have with Mountain House is they are low calorie meals. 250 calories? Make your own and get 490 calories, plus, it will taste like stew.

Mountain House are also extremely high sodium. While you want to have some salt in your diet, they go overboard.

Every time I look at the prepackaged meals I go back to trailcooking.com and make stuff cheaper, healthier and tastier. Because I'd rather carry something that packs in calories and nutrients than give Mountain House my money.
