I've seen a recommendation for Walmart and another for Sierra Trading Post. Any other recommendations?

Even repackaged mac and cheese. But we were not backpacking and had a great water source and plenty of fuel for the stove. Took some dehydrated beef to add, and then supplemented with fish, ptarmigan and caribou. I am not a fan of Bear Creek, MRE's are horrible, and MH has been eatable. I would like to try some Peak refuel, maybe this fall as I am scheduling a couple of overnight trips in September. Arcus Venator

There have been big improvements made in the past few years. We eat them about every-other month here in Korea during exercises. I have many cases of them that have been issued and keep them for the zombie apocalypse.

Haven’t tried Peak yet. I'll have to give them another shot. Any favorites that come to mind off the top of your head?

I'm a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy, so keep that in mind when considering my preferences Lasagna is a favourite, as is Stroganoff w/ beef and mushrooms. Chicken breast with mashed potatoes was my favourite, but they discontinued it. The mashed potatoes with gravy and beef is also really good. The Cheesecake desserts are amazing after a few days in the mountains, as well
