The freeze-dried process: The Back Country freeze drying process results in a completely dry product that won't shrink. Water is evaporated in a vacuum chamber, locking in goodness for long-lasting freshness. When the meal is rehydrated water is quickly absorbed, allowing ingredients to return to their natural juicy and tender state.

After packing, the foods are heat-sealed with all air removed. The food remains flavoursome and safe to eat for at least three years. All Back Country freeze-dried meals are formulated to meet high-energy dietary requirements. This includes the right balance of carbohydrates, protein and sugars for instant energy and nutritional replenishment. There are a lot of benefits with Back Country freeze-dried meals.

• Moisture is removed from foodstuffs, making Back Country Cuisine light to carry.
• Low processing temperature enables the food to retain natural minerals.
• Freeze-dried meals meet the high energy needs of outdoor enthusiasts.
• Freeze-dried meals have a long shelf life, making them ideal for hikers and campers.

Back Country Cuisine includes innovative packaging consisting of an outer foil pouch and 2 inner plastic heat pads. When water is added, the heat bag forms an electrolyte solution with heating properties. The product is safe to use, doesn't generate a flame, and won't cause ignition.
