Interesting. Haven't seen them here yet. We get Zaterine bean/rice combos that aren't bad (with a bit of hot sauce), but this would be great, too.

Most of those heat and go meals are very heavy. Three days of those and carrying them 30 miles up steep hills and you'll be wishing for something else. But if you're out for a weekend jaunt, why not. :)

Saw those at one of the local grocery stores. I had the same thoughts as Blissful as to their weight and such. The pack/serving is 8 ounces and my feeling was that 8 ounces of pasta/sauce/water really isnt that much food after a day of hiking. They may be alright if carrying a few for a couple days of hiking. However I would rather carry a 4 ounce or 6.5 ounce dehydrated pasta dinner that I can add water to.
