Freeze Dried Food Tasting Potluck

This event is for anyone who has been curious about trying new commercially available flavors, but wants to avoid the financial, culinary, and gastrointestinal risks of buying many meals or taking new products into the backcountry.

Each participant should bring at least 2 servings or 600+ calories-worth of a commercially packaged freeze-dried breakfast or dinner. Many products contain 2 servings in one pouch. In order to avoid duplicates, please enter what you are bringing in this spreadsheet. 

If you'd prefer to have a surprise meal selected and purchased on your behalf, please select the paid ticket type.

We will spend some time rating our favorites individually then take a vote for our group favorites to see which meal wins the tastiest breakfast and dinner!

Other things to bring:

• Your own spork.
• Your stove only if  your meal requires cooking (if it is not a 'just add hot water and wait' meal)
• Optional: backcountry drinks or desserts. This should be in addition to the breakfast or dinner that you are bringing.
