Just got back, and guess what? I just bought a box of Mountain House dehydrated backpacking meals (the same that you buy at REI). The meals come in a box of 10 for $43, or $4.30 a meal versus $8 or so at REI. The box included: 3 chicken teriyaki and rice, 2 beef stew, 3 beef stroganoff and 2 lasagna with meat sauce.

It was definitely strange to see the them there.

I live in Santa Clarita CA 91350
