"I like this Mountain House flavor because it is a different flavor. Generally I like all the MH flavors but some more than others. For me I would much rather have any five different flavors than my favorite flavor five times in a row.

If your really into saving space and weight then open the MH foil pack and repackage it into a light sandwich zip lock bag without the small oxygen absorber. Use it within a week and have something easier to pack out also.

"It has a little more spice than I thought it would have for a Mountain House Product. I ordered more after I tasted it."
