In various Italian specialty shops, and a few of the large supermarkets in the area, they carry a brand called Amore. Amore sells small tubes (like toothpaste) with various pastes: sun-dried tomato, pesto, garlic, olive, and double concentrated tomato. maybe others. 2.8 oz tube, no refrigeration until opened. Refrigeration will not be a problem. Keeping it from freezing will be a bigger issue. Your water bottles freeze if you don't sleep with them in intimate fashion. Lots of options with these. Yes! I like that. Try Googling rec.backcountry as the topic comes up there quite a bit. Will do. Thanks! Besides freezedried, there are quite a few supermarket items which work well. The Lipton Noodles 'n Sauce, Pasta 'n Sauce, Rice 'n Sauce are a staple for many, a great base for other meals. Yes. Bear Creek Kitchens makes some good soups as well, but there's the gas issues, which can get ugly in close quarters. For three days at a time. Although, sad to say, you get used to it. The same companies which sell freezedried meals for backpackers sell similar foods in large quantity for the survivalist market, and they also sell components (freeze dried chicken or veggies). Yah, we're buyiing a lot in bulk. $8 a meal is a bit much when buying small salty meals. You could easily spend $80 a day. Multiply by 30, and it's a significant chink of change. Bulk is the way to go. -klaus |
