91% praised for its delicious taste, while 9% found it lacking
I was surprised by how good the freeze-dried food tasted and wouldn't mind eating it occasionally. My husband liked the taste too, and it was fine with a little salt and pepper.
I find that the freeze-dried food looks and tastes better than any other brand out there.
We offer freeze-dried meals with a wide range of flavors, from beef stroganoff to chicken teriyaki.
The aftertaste is very strong and unpleasant, similar to the smell of new tennis shoes, and tastes rubbery/vinyl/glue-like.
95% praised for its allergen-friendliness, though 5% found limited choices
The label did not clearly mention the allergen information for shellfish in the form of oyster sauce.
I could not buy the product because it contained oyster sauce, which is an allergen for me. The label did not specify the allergen.
91% praised for its high nutritional value
Having a reliable food source that tastes good, is convenient, and easy brings me comfort that is worth more in value than the price.
91% appreciated its long shelf life, although 9% experienced spoilage
This food has a shelf life of 30 years and is a good option to have on hand for emergency situations.
The product has a great shelf life and is good for stackable and compact storage.
If I am lactose intolerant, I would need to pack lactase which expires in 2 years.
