Review on the backpackers pantry fettuccine alfredo with chicken a lot of people have requested. Ishow the nutrition facts, so I'm gonna show those real quick hopefully. Ican get it on camera there. It is for you can pause the video. You like and read them. And the list of ingredients so let's get. Some water on the boil. And let's get this started let. That set for about 13 minutes okay for the moment of truth. It set for a while open just like. Iwould at home sometimes. If you're cooking any sort of pasta the cream will get a little bit. Creamier we're gonna test. It out rights it fares. Ihad the opportunity to sample about a third of. Imust say I would give it five stars. It rehydrated very well the noodles are just the right size to. They plump up their full sometimes. Some of these dehydrated foods.

They just don't reconstitute well. They taste like cardboard. This actually tastes like cooked noodles the alfredo sauce is very good it's creamy there's just the right amount of spice in there. You can really taste the chicken so. Ithink you're getting what's advertised with. Idid purchase it at REI it's a little bit pricey it's about ten dollars. And fifty cents as opposed to the mountain house which usually runs about 750. Now I've cooked mountain house before. You get a clump of the spice packet. All the way at the bottom so those last couple spoonfuls are pretty powerful. One doesn't seem to be. That way it's not quite high-end restaurant quality but for coming out here backpacking hiking camping putting in a survival kit. Icould see myself doing this the backpacker pantry is definitely a thumbs up in the wing man project as always folks thank. You very much for watching if you're not a subscriber please subscribe.

You liked the video give it a thumbs up until the next video folks take care.

It gets JD here about two weeks ago. Ireviewed some backpacker Camping food allegedly from the same company from the same store. This time We have fettuccine chicken alfredo This. One has fewer calories in the last. One This is about 720 calories preparation really simple pull the top off oxygen pack out 2 cups of boiling water Seal. It waits for 20 minutes depending on your altitude BAM you're done But. We don't care about. All that do we what we want to know is. How does this actually taste? Well let's do. That Okay so I opened. It up stirred it around. Idon't know if you can see. This or not there are spices little veggies noodles tiny piece of chicken Alright let's give 'er a go See. What happens Alright as far as the taste goes taste is good Technically speaking If. You salt one part of a dish you're supposed to salt every part of the dish so the noodles should be just as salty as The chicken. Or maybe not but it should. All be there should be a level of salt I'm just getting bites. And noodles that don't have salt also there are still crunchy things in here I'm not entirely sure. How that's happening because in 20 minutes of water should be soaked in their Ok, so we're done with. That Really? It was pretty good Got better the closer to the bottom the bag. You went you might in the middle of. It wants to shake it up Maybe see. If you can get some Get. It to go a little more evenly. Ithink that would help with the disparities with the saltiness It wasn't a lot of chicken There were a bunch of little tiny Minuscule pieces but not a lot of big pieces of chicken Um probably not surprising Much like the Pad Thai.

Though There are a few questions in my mind Ok. This costs about I don't know. Ithink it was like eight nine dollars So. That means you're getting less. Than a hundred calories per dollar Is there no better food to carry with. You than this? I mean yeah it's sort of lightweight no doubt about. It But if you're doing serious camping and you're doing serious hiking really serious hiking this will not be enough for you It just won't So. If you're gonna have to carry two. Or three of these in order to get through a day would. It is worth it too not. And somewhere between 24. And 36 dollars and instead find something that's Relatively. More portable but perhaps. More calorie dense What. Ican say is if you like. Something that's gimmicky. That to the uninitiated Would seem like it's a good idea then. You can't do much better. Than this recommend don't recommend.

Wouldn't personally buy. It again I wouldn't buy. Any of those because they're just too expensive for what you're getting if you've tried the stuff before. And you have any Different thoughts on want. You go ahead Leave a comment below Let. Me know That's it for today Go ahead Leave a like. Even if you don't like. It leaves a like because you're a better person. Than that Hit me up on social media Comment share with. All your friends if. You think they like. It and we'll catch. You next time I'm JD.

You do there you walk up on. They want since here let's do a real quick taste test on mountain house beef. And stew / good things about. This so we're just to give. That a quick chart today boys be using my comon maxxtow very happy with. This product pick it up original of reasonably cheap. And come with a good kid got the hot sports on their go. And light that up from fast yeah according to the instructions we're going to need 16 ounces of water as. You see on the cook MITIC they've got. All the ounces mark. And milliliters marks is very easy to read so basically don't bring a major good about 16 ounces we're going to let them boil ezek say rip up to roaring boil let's go ahead. And check that snow along it's always very important take the dry pak out. These are not very tasty be careful. You pour the water in there I've noticed. That his handles get really hot on. This cook kid, so I've got my gloves on today that's probably helped out a little bit. And of course it did not we're going to break out the trusty town God take a look in there. That beef stew now using my trusted sport we're going to stir. Ithink I'm just going to throw a little pepper in. This time spice it up a notch that's near. That in there according to the instructions takes probably about six seven minutes to rehydrate so break out the trusty phone we're going to start the timer.

This rehydrate wife yard as. You can hear timer says the food is done so let's give it a try oh wow. That looks really tasty ok never used my skill system. One bitch tubing of course 10 min hell yeah fully disk in. It is very high I'm impressed hang on a tick. Another bite just to make sure I'm at. That thing nine plus. Once again Mountain House beef stew.

hey YouTube. This is easy proper 101. And today we're doing another taste test of the mountain house. This is the chili mac with the beef. These we're part of the ones. Igot a deal on then. Idid a video for so I'll put. That link in the description down below. Ikind of got a couple of chili max. Some beef stroganoff for a really good deal but um. You know for I think. Ifeel like choose something where for 25 serving which is really cheap as. You can see there there're nutritional facts. And then how much water. How much time that you're gonna need to cook. This so right what we're gonna do is we're gonna get the water boiling, and we'll be right back well. We will be opening us opening this up. And putting the water in okay guys. We got our water boiling in here so. Now just going to open. This up actually looks pretty tasty so. Now get the, so we're gonna do a quick little stir here. What we're gonna do is we're just gonna we're gonna let. This go for four minutes we're gonna stir. Another four minutes. Because they're saying total of eight to nine minutes, so we'll be back after the eight minutes is up alright guys it's been a total of two eight minutes. We actually did it for nine minutes. We actually stirred. This at the four-minute mark. It smelled really good. And my wife was helping me film. She said there's almost smells like the chili. She makes so she's really curious to try. This too so we got our bowl right here. That actually looks.

And actually smells really good, so we're gonna just dump. This into our Bowl here. You know for 25 you know servings. You definitely get a lot out of. Now granted the other thing you know for a chili as long as we're not enough emergency situation. You could use you know crackers. And cheese or whatnot so. This a little taste see. That is really good definitely gonna have to pick up. More of the package. If not buy like the big cans. They have of this definitely. Something you know to have it's always good to have a soup in a way like chili. And stuff like that so definitely. This is definitely gonna be a must I'm definitely gonna add to my book as a meal. Iwant to add to my supply so definitely thumbs up for the mountain house freeze-dried chili mac with the beef so definitely. You guys tried you guys like. This writes this in the comment section down below. You actually like if there's. Another brand out there. That of the chili Mac. You think is better.

You like this video hit. Me the thumb give me the thumbs up. You haven't please hit the subscribe button thank. You guys so much we will catch. You guys down the road

Hey how's it going today I'm gonna be making mountain house chili mac. And beef with beans. Now I'm not really a chili mac. And beef kind of person but at the same time I've never met a mountain house. That I didn't like so let's jump into. It this one is the Pro Pack so it's vacuum-sealed. And takes up way less room in your pack especially. If you're in a high elevation area it's not gonna be expanding so much so. This one means 1 and 3/4 cups of water which is about 14 ounces so just gonna eyeball. That if you have a little less water it's gonna be a little thicker. If you have a little. More water it's gonna be a little soup year so not the end of the world. All right let's get our stove going all right we're gonna put our water on. And let it boil up. And I will check back with. You guys in just a minute. All right so we are at a boil. Now turn that off and we're gonna open. This puppy up sign that to the side open. This up another reason I'm excited to get. This open is because Hashem — at the bottom of. All the mountain houses. They have a saying and. Ican't read this one. Because that seems filled too tight going getting tough then stop think observe. And plan that's really good advice. Because when you're at the moment. And you're panicking your you're not gonna get a good feel in. This situation so opening it up. Isee the macaroni I see the kidney beans. Isee beef smell it actually smells really good smells like a chili so there's.

That for you guys give it a good mix make sure. You get all the way to the bottom to get the spices in there the Pro Pack I've noticed in stirring this. You really have to get in the edges. Because it's been vacuum sealed so there're those crevices so just really make sure to scrape. It so you get all. That flavor all right so that's. It now we're gonna seal. It and let it sit for four minutes. And then we're gonna stir. It up and then it says let. It sits for about eight. More minutes so 12 total on. This so see you guys in just a minute. All right so it's been a little bit longer. Than 12 minutes I'm gonna go ahead. And open this up for you guys look at. That wow it smells really full of spices.

It says it's in a spicy stuff, so I'm not sure. If they mean like heat. Or if it's like the spices cuz. Ido smell a lot I smell the chili powder. Ismell paprika I still smell garlic, so I'm gonna go ahead. And get a bite I'm gonna grab. Some hamburger a noodle make sure. Ihave a been in there so that's. What that looks like for you guys right. Now okay so the beam actually is done. And it's a really good tenderness on the beam huge. Iwas worried that the beam was gonna be under cooked. Because that's really easy to do the noodles are good they're not mushy. And the hamburger has a good consistency as well but it's its pretty bland which surprises. Me because it smells so fragrant. When you open it up I'm not I'm gonna take like a bite like. Inormally would just to see. Because it just smells like. It shouldn't be bland does. That make senses alright here. We go okay that is its way different so don't just don't just try to try a little bit of.

It you gotta take like a real bite the flavors in the hamburger so. Idon't know if it was seasoned. And cooked up first before. It was dehydrated but it's in the hamburger. And there is a lot of hamburgers in the sauce there are smaller pieces but it's. All throughout the sauce a lot of flavor in. That the flavor is actually really good. II still don't like the noodles in. It the noodles just throw. Me off if it was just a chili. Ireally like this. Ithink but I can't. You pass the noodles guys. Now my favorite mountain house. It definitely does have a lot of flavor. If your somebody who likes noodles in your chili. Or likes hot dish this is definitely. One for you to check out for me personally I'm probably gonna give. This one five and a half out of ten.

If you take like a real bite. You get a lot of that flavor. And it's not spicy so it's just a lot of spice. That makes sense I want to know. What your guys's favorite mountain house is drop. That in the comment section below don't forget to give. This video a big thumbs up. And I will see you on the next one.

Everyone youtube has a mountain pass for you. Iguess I'll make what you got to do is. You got to add 16 ounces of boiling water so first. And do is pull up my container here depending on how. You like it to be like. It runny or thick and kind of put less. More goes ahead treyvion stable question the meantime. You can take the topol here dig out the keeps. It fresh and wait for your water to boil farm instead of oil here say after. This to a boil you're going to put. It in your mountain house pack zip. And you're going to wait nine minutes pretty sure 89 minutes. All right so now we're boiling take. Ido give it a stir seal. And you're gonna wait nine minutes give it sir that's. What it looks like still really hot stuff tastes just like. We were to make chili mac at home. Or chili tastes just like. It no we're good consistency. Or handling the noodles with. These Mountain houses really good meet produ out for nanny Jason. This tastes very normal just like. You made it on the stove at home so. Ihave to give us a pretty good reading for low expensive but as far as convenience goes out in the wilderness. You can't really beaten so. You guys any questions about. These let and until next time later.

hey YouTube. It is easy prepper 101. And today we're gonna be kind of starting a new series of doing a taste testing of a lot of the freeze-dried foods. You can get at some of the stores like Walmart. Or Meijer Bass Pro Cabala's. And stuff like you know stuff. You maybe want to put in your bug out bag. If you're going on a hiking trip. You just are prepping for a rainy day. If you're kind of what happened to. Few years ago when the algae bloom happened. All the food went bye-bye in the grocery store every. All the freezer items. All the canned foods. All the stuff these types of packaged foods was gone so. What I kind of want to do is. This kind of start a series of doing a lot of taste s of these types of foods. And other foods of other brands out there to kind of say do. Something I want to have in my storage. Or in my backpack too. Many times I talk with other people who are going camping and. They just buy they think they're gonna like. They don't do their research to say hey. Ireally don't like.

And then actually knows they're starving so my goal is trying to help those people out there. That maybe is just are beginning to be new to prepping or new to camping, and they're just trying to go easy. These mountain houses there're tons of other brands out there. You can get but what we have here is — freeze-dried rice. And chicken one serving I picked. This up at Walmart for four dollars. And 48 cents which is not. That bad of a price. Now granted the bigger pouches are a little bit. More but do your homework on what it's a good price to. You know it sets there's. Some bigger pouches. That Walmart carries that's a little bit cheaper versus of. You go to Meijer it was almost a dollar difference from the two serving pack versus the. One serving pack the two serving pack at Meijer was like almost nine bucks. Ithink at Walmart it was well under 8 bucks so definitely do your homework do your research especially. If you're out shopping one real quick just can.

They kind of flip this over just to give. Some nutritional facts here as we'll push. This there as you can see calories is. One pack 270 10 grams of fat sodium of 750 carbohydrates is 41 grams. And only six yeah six grams of protein. And the directions to cook. This is very simple as. You can see open the packet tear a notch remove the oxygen absorber carefully add 2/3 cups of boiling water stir carefully. This is optional you can stir. It after four minutes. And then let it let stand for eight to nine minutes. While keeping the pouch upright so. What we're gonna do right. Now is we're gonna put. Some water in the microwave to get. It boil then we're gonna add. It so be right back. All right I have my measuring cup right here. Ialready got two-thirds of water. This is ready to go. One spoon to stir this up so. It is we're going to crack. This open there's a tear right there pop. It open right on top is the oxygen absorber so.

Now pretty much I've got the water in their stirring it up. And right now just from the initial actually smells pretty good. Now I'm stirring this very carefully sorry. Iprobably got my hand in. That sorry about that but that's. What it looks like right. Now with that two-thirds water not much water so. Now we're just gonna seal. And then we're gonna let. This sits for four minutes. And then we're gonna stir. And then we're gonna wait. Another four minutes. It should be ready to eat come back to. You in four minutes. All right guys we just hit the four-minute mark. We are actually going to do the optional of stirring it. This time we have to try not to get my hand as. You can see the rice in their pretty good just to kind of stir. This pretty much at. This point right now I'm gonna try to get. This rice off is at. This point at the 4-minute mark. All the water has been absorbed up into the rice so.

Now pretty much another four minutes. We got my timer here then we're going to go. And we're gonna come back after. This four myths that will be the total eight to nine minutes. We will give you a taste test of how. Ithink of the freeze-dried rice. And chicken all right guys. We just come back from the last four minutes so. This is ready to eat. It actually smells really good, so we're gonna do a taste test right here I'm not gonna show. Me stuff in my mouth with. This but let's see this tastes actually not bad actually like. One we're gonna put. This for you I think of. It I'm gonna dump this out so. You guys can kind of see exactly. You see the bag is empty. What you get you know it's its not much but it's. One serving so this is kind would be kind of like your lunch especially. If you're camping or.

If you're doing a day hike. You know something quick. And easy if you're going to be expending like a lot of calories then. You maybe want to get the pouches. That maybe has two servings especially. You know you're gonna need. It depend on your. If you're hiking if it's. If the terrain it's gonna be rugged but. If you're gonna be camping and just hanging out. And you're just trying to make your life easy. And packing and you're just gonna go to the store buy a bunch of these. This was definitely would be a good idea so that's gonna be. It for this video definitely for me. What I'm gonna be doing is I'm gonna be keeping a log of what mountain house foods the foods. Some other brands so. When I'm prepping to put. These in my bug-out bag. Or in my storage on my shelves gonna have the foods. That I'm gonna like so definitely the rice. And chicken is definitely a good. One to have in my book so. That is gonna be it for this video please write. Any comments down below.

If you've actually had tried the rice. And chicken to let you guys liked. It hit the thumbs up. You liked the video. You have it please hit the subscribe button thank. You guys so much we will catch. You guys down the road you.

At mountain house what we do for a reason. It for the people that call places like. These their home away from home. Because it's the easiest way but. Because it's the best way. This is mountain house. What we do almost 50 years ago Oregon freeze-dry a small company in Albany Oregon began supplying general foods with ingredients for their cereals later. We began supplying the military with rations. That tasted better we're lighter. And easier to prepare them canned. This was just the beginning as we've. Now become the world's leader in freeze drying technology mountain house foods made by Oregon freeze dry are the number. One freeze-dried meal the reason. They simply taste better. We pride ourselves on. This difference and build our processes around the goal of providing the taste of home. You need it about our process. That makes our food taste better sourcing quality raw ingredients is the first step our freeze-drying process is the next key our products have.

Several advantages over those made with other food preservation methods our foods taste look. And stay fresher weigh less. And retain more nutrients but the real key to our great taste lies in our cooking process mountain house is the only company. That cooks recipes fresh before freeze drying them others simply assemble freeze-dried ingredients together in a package. Wherever your home away from home is mountain house is here for you. When you've put every ounce of your energy into an amazing day will fill your tank back up. If the unexpected you can depend on mountain house to be dependable. You need most will bring some real meals to the table. And make everything feel better. And a little bit more like yep. What we do mountain house taste home you.

All right guys back again with. Another mountain house let mountain house review today. We got noodles and chicken. This personally probably about my second favor to a meal in the mountain house line so without. Any further ado let's get into. That take the oxygen absorber out. You forget you cook. It rehydrate and forget. You forgot to take this out. You could take when you're done. And just discard it totally safe according to the instructions, so I've never done. It but sure it's fine look at. This meal like most mountain houses says two. And a half servings. Icould personally eat. You know all myself but. They say two and a half split between two children. This requires two cups boiling water so let's get. That in here then we'll give it a good stir make sure. All down the bottom stir. It up good get in there. These meals are good for 25 years so in a survival situation food storage.

You don't have to worry about rotation. Anything like that just keep a. Few in your pantry and you're good to go that's. What I love about them so get. It closes back up here. We gotta wait about nine minutes. What I like to do halfway through. It up give it another stir close. It back up these hiking this was. You know obviously for hiking and backpacking a lot of people say high in sodium. And he read there's a reason for. One obviously being a flavor but too. If you're out hiking camp. And backpack that your sled using a lot of energy. And you're sweating and you'd want to get electrolyte imbalance so. You need to salt your body actually needs the salt as long as. You drink enough water you'll be fine. Now in a survival situation same thing you're gonna exert yourself. Then normal, you stay home but. If water is limited. If you're limited on water maybe think of. Another option you don't want. Something high in sodium that's gonna do thirst.

If you're low on water. And obviously you have dietary restrictions then same thing high blood pressure whatnot alright so let's let. It does its thing here. And I'll get back to. You okay so about four minutes went by let's get. It opened back up here give it. Another good stir all mixed up down to the bottom telling you guys. This is about my second favorite meal from mountain house. This is pretty good. All right give it a good stir. Now we'll close her up again. And wait another four. And a half four to four. And a half minutes, and they'll be good to go so. All right guys toward done spent about nine minutes nine. And a half minutes why dude open. It up give it another stir Oh looky there. We got red peppers in there. Everything it's they get a chicken broth noodles chicken pieces of chicken. What I'm gonna get this out want to get on a plate where's my plate. All right so it out here onto a plate as. You got all the noodles peppers.

And it's this chicken here two chunks of chicken it's. All there's a piece of chicken it's. All in a chicken like sauce like a big chicken broth let. Some here guys this gets a ten out of ten my second favorite mountain house meal. Itaste onion garlic obviously the chicken flavor with the broth noodles perfect noodles come out al dente every time. Once again it's a good. You know good option keeping your pantry for storage food storage survival situations emergency. You know power outages but. You can't make it to the store. You run low on food. They keep twenty-five years so no need to rotate. You have to worry about rotating your food just keep money.

You hate you get done working out. You have to fill your gut full of liquids. You have to drink plenty of water to replenish the fluids. You just lost and a protein shake to make sure your muscles heal. And grow properly sure. Both serve important purposes but the last thing. You want after exercising is to feel bloated well it's your lucky day. It turns out our new zealand whey protein drink can accomplish. Both of these crucial tasks so how's. This possible well we really didn't believe. Either until we read the recent study by. Some British sports scientist. They took 10 student athletes. And have them work out on a stationary bicycle. And high heat 35 degrees Celsius. You were wondering until. They have lost one point seven percent of their body weight through perspiration. They did this twice but. They were given a different beverage to drink after. Each instance for the first go-round the students simply received water on the second attempt. They receive water mixed with 20 grams of whey protein isolate. Both times the athletes had to consume 15 times as much fluid as. They lost so what happened well. It turns out that the students bodies were able to restore the hydration. They lost at the same rate.

They were given the plain water. Or the water with the added protein. And the scientists even measured their fluid levels for a full four hours after the workout why does. This matter well it means. You don't have to overflow your stomach after. You exercise instead of drinking water to keep your fluids in check along with a protein drink to make sure your muscles get as toned as. You want them to be. You can simply enjoy. One protein pat glass of deliciousness so. Ineed to do well that's the easy part step. One workout as much as. You want step 2 drink our new zealand whey protein beverage step 3 see your muscles get bigger without worrying about dehydration. However it's important to note. That in order to get the full benefits of hydration. And muscle building you should stick to the. One scoop serving of. Iso XP offering up to 25 grams of protein. That after every workout you'll feel invigorated refreshed.

And stronger than ever you.

ATP's New Zealand Wave protein is a relatively new product to. Us here at Popeyes and it's a great choice for those who want to avoid. Any artificial sweeteners have sensitivities with regards to dietary restrictions. Or one a bit cleaner of a protein product the reason why New Zealand whey is often regarded as a cleaner source of protein is. Because in that country they're actually only allowed to feed their cattle grass so. That means they're not going to be pumping them full of antibiotics. And hormones anything like. That so your whey protein is going to be very pure. Another feature that sets the ATP product apart from other New Zealand proteins is. They have what's called a Monterrey certification Monterrey as a governing body. That tests different proteins to ensure. That the purity and quality is enough of a standard to classify. It as a New Zealand way. And finally pop-by supplements is the only place. You can get the exclusive value size 6 pounds of ATP's New Zealand way. Ihave it all open on my sample station every flavor so you're. More than welcome to come in.
