Anyone tried meals from this company? On their website, some of them look mighty tasty. Any favorites I should try? Or, is there another company that you prefer?

Reach for the sky, cuz tomorrow may never come. Live the life of love. Love the life you live.

I have tried a few and find them to be awesome, my fav so far is the burrito wrap. They are a bit pricey but sometimes you get what you pay for. I'm sure the Gnome will be along soon to give you his .02....he is an expert on PG meals, he informs nearly everyone that he meets on the trail of PG and NWHikers.net. dizzy.gif

Go placidly amid the noise and waste, and remember what comfort there may be in owning a piece thereof.

I've never heard anything bad on this website about the company and their food. I believe Hulksmash, BPJ and Slugman are big fans. Apparently their '2 serving' meals are actually 2 servings, something not experienced with other companies.

Used them for all my dinners and a lunch on my week-long trip this past summer. Two people from different states recommended them to me. They are definitely great and worth it. Everything I had was amazing (Dumpling, gumbo, tortilla soup, burger wrap, buffalo chicken wrap, cheese spread). I cannot wait to order the same and more for this summer's adventures. You have to pay for shipping with is never fun. I'll probably plan ahead and see if a friend wants to join in to make a bigger order and save on shipping.

I have often mentioned how much we have liked their meals - because they are real meals and not just slop. Yes, they weigh more. But you won't regret it if you want a commercial meal.

I like getting the ground beef and adding taco seasoning. Trail burritos! I've enjoyed everything I've gotten from them and their customer service is top notch.

I like most of their food, but my favorite is the Austintacious Tortilla Soup. I have some in my hand right now and I'm going to love it on my 2nd night out on the coast this weekend!

+1 for the Austintacious Tortilla Soup. I hear ya. I like to add a few packets of Franks Hot Sauce to give it a little more umph.

Another up.gif for PIG biggrin.gif Never had a bad experience. Yes, a tad on the pricier side but worth it IMO. My personal fave dinner choice is the Big Easy Gumbo.

Life is short so live it well.
