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
Tasty scrambled eggs, with cheese and caramelised onions.
Preparation: REMOVE THE OXYGEN ABSORBER (Sachet) from inside the pouch. Slowly add up to 155ml hot water, stirring as you pour and then close the bag. Wait 5-8 minutes for the food to rehydrate.
Cold water will suffice, 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.

Expedition Foods provides the perfect meal for everyone from extreme athletes to campers and hikers – in fact, anyone who desires great-tasting food on the go.
450cal, 5-8minutes. Too much water, although we only used a rough measure I would try it with less than the recommended amount next time. My meal was soupy but it tasted really nice and the texture was good.

| STAFF'S TASTE TEST - 450cal, 5-8minutes. Really tasty, impressed that the cheese actually tasted like melted cheese, onions stood out taste-wise. Balance between onions, cheese and scrambled egg could have been different because caramelised onion dominates the flavour quite a bit but very tasty. |
