The steel cut oatmeal will stay with you longer than the instant.Takes a few more minutes to make,but well worth it.Add a pack of the flavored instant or a bit of brown sugar.
I tried that Mountain House stuff on pack trip this past summer.I took one of each of the four dinners they market. One of the four was alright.None were great.One pack was not enough for one,and two were too many.Way over priced at $9-$11 per pack for what they tasted like.
I'd sure test them out on your kids before the trip.Kids usually have a better sense of taste than adults.
