total numpty question incoming!
On the instructions it says (eg) add 480ml water to 150g mix, then gives values for a 'serving' of 630g. Does that suggest that a pack - weighing 164g - is a quarter of a serving?

I'm no expert but I would assume that as 480ml water weighs 480g then when that is added to the 150g of mix it adds up to a 630g serving.....

It's not a quarter serving as the only thing taken out of it is the water and not the goodness, it's basically quarter the weight and not quarter the serving.
The 630g is the weight of the meal with water and the 150g is without water(dehydrated). If you wanted quarter of a serving you should quarter the 150g to 37.5 g and add 120ml water to give you 157.5g which is a quarter of the final 630g meal.

Thats how I understand it lol

Must get around to ordering some more - those are very good! By the way, there must be some possible uses for the containers after use - insulation on ground for alcohol cookers is certainly one, protection for grass with woodburners? You should give a meal away for the best suggestion!

Thank you Neil


I have a quantity of dehydrated rations which include:
Oat Porridge
Pasta Siciliana(Not many Left)
Shepherds Pie
Spaghetti Bolognaise
Oat Porridge with Fruit(Apple and Sultanas)

These meals are made by Westlers who provide for the armed forces.
These meals are dehydrated and you add boiling water and hey presto your meal is ready to go. These are fantatstic meals and cut down on having to carry as much water.
All the meals are in date until AUG 2011

I would like £3 each or 3 for £8 posted
