My problem was with home-dehydated peas. Ever since the buckshot incident, I've used freeze-dried peas as an ingredient.

I also found that the freeze-dried meats in the large packages from Packit Gourmet are basically the same price per serving as home-dehydrated meats (the latter using, admittedly, high quality meat, but I didn't include the electricity cost of running the dehydrator). Of course the large packages are only suitable if you're going on enough trips to use them up in a year, or can share.
