What are the worst backpacking freeze dried meals? And are some of them really as bad as people say? Derek and Carl asked over 40,000 members of the backpacking community what their least favorite meals were. After compiling the results, they discuss, and even taste-test, the top (or bottom answers). There were some very surprising results…both ways. Also, Carl shares one of his best (or possibly worst) ideas ever.
Some of the Topics Discussed
-Backpacking Dinners: Freeze Dried Meals
-Mountain House, Peak Refuel, Good to Go, Readywise, Packit Gourmet, Backpackers Pantry, Wild Zora
-Carl’s latest crackpot idea.
