Expedition Foods’ delicious light-weight meals provide the perfect nutrition for a wide range of outdoor pursuits. Freeze-drying food is the most successful method of preservation, making it taste better, look better, weigh less and last longer.
Expedition Foods says
Delicious chunks of beef in a creamy vegetable sauce with rice.
Preparation: REMOVE THE OXYGEN ABSORBER* (Sachet) from inside the pouch. Slowly add up to 255ml hot water, stirring as you pour and then close the bag. Wait 5-8 minutes for the food to rehydrate.
Cold water will suffice in an emergency, however the re-hydration time is much longer. The oxygen absorber helps maintain product freshness and is non toxic. Do not eat.
Expedition Foods meals have a long shelf life of up to 5 years.

| STAFF'S TASTE TEST - I added the 345ml water (which is a very specific number but I did my best), waited the full 8 minutes. When I opened the pouch it was swimming in water/sauce, minestrone soup consistency, when I read the packet again it says add UP TO 345ml so it doesn't need anything like that. When I tasted it though it was excellent, the rice and beef had reconstituted really well, it just needed liberating from the depths of the sauce. I drank the last bit which tasted nice. I'm giving it a score of 9 because it was so tasty, if I ate a lot of them I'd probably fine tune the amount of water I used. |
