Mountain House Foods

Why Are These Meals So Popular?

Mountain House foods are high quality freeze dried foods that are popular with those looking to build their own food storage reserves.

(They've also been the favorite choice of campers and outdoor adventurers for years).

Mountain house makes freeze dried entrees, desserts, veggies, and even fruits and meats - everything from lasagna to scrambled eggs with bacon to spaghetti with meat sauce to beef stroganoff to blueberry cheescake to ice cream sandwiches.

You can also get snacks like cottage cheese, crackers and organic strawberries or apples.

You get a huge variety to choose from, which makes it easy to design and build your food storage to your liking (who says you've got to subsist on rice and beans?). And the food tastes delicious.

In fact, Mountain House is a Gold Taste Award winner for the quality ingredients and fresh taste of their freeze-dried meals.

Why Are They So Popular?

What makes Mountain house foods so unique is that they cook and prepare the food fresh themselves - before the freeze drying process.

Other food companies do not actually freeze-dry or cook their own foods. They just blend the dry components of other companies and package them.

So you get a much better tasting meal - with more real food nutrients with Mountain House.

Mountain house meals come in #10 cans and have a long 25 - 30 year shelf life (another thing that makes them very popular).

You can also get smaller meal pouches (with a 7 year shelf life) for camping trips, outdoor adventures or short term survival kits and bug-out bags.

Many 1 year food storage packages like those from The Ready Store use Mountain House meals in their packages.

Meal preparation is easy - you just add water and wait about 10 minutes for the food to rehydrate. Then you're good to go with a delicious meal. Favorite Mountain House meals with buyers (and kids) are the beef stroganoff and lasagna.

If you're looking to build your own food storage to your liking with gourmet food that gives you a long shelf life and premium taste, Mountain House is a very popular brand to try.

Where To Buy

While MountainHouse foods usually sell out around camping season because they're so popular, you can buy online and get pretty decent prices.

I like the selection at Nitropak. They carry both the #10 cans and pouches for backpacking or camping. Plus you can save on shipping costs if you buy in bulk.
