Back Country Cuisine meals are formulated to meet the high energy needs for the outdoor community. There is a careful balance of carbohydrates and sugars for instant energy, protein to replenish exhausted muscles and oils and fat to provide an energy store (oils and fats are kept within the recommended maximum of 30% of total energy)

Meal preparation doesn't get any easier than this. Just add boiling water! Back country Cuisine Food is great for long trips or lightweight adventures.

In the freeze drying process, crystals of frozen ice in the food are sublimed (evaporated) to water vapour in a vacuum chamber. The result is a completely dry product that does not shrink during the drying process. When prepared for eating, the water quickly gets into the pores left by the ice crystals to give a juicy, tender food product.

After packing, the food is heat-sealed in foil pouches from which all the air has been removed and replaced with nitrogen gas. This keeps the food safe and full of flavour for at least three years without the need for preservatives.

Creamy Carbonara: This meal is light to carry and provides tasty, fast nourishing food for adventure with a vegetarian pasta dish, served in a creamy italian-style sauce. Vegetarian. Halal
