FREEZE DRIED ADVANTAGES:
Unlike dehydrated foods, that rely on nutritional damaging high heat to remove moisture and offer a limited shelf life of less than 1 year, Freeze-Dried Classic Mixed Vegetables are made using a gentle cold process to preserve 98% of all nutrients and offers long term preservation of up to 25 years. What's more, Freeze-Dried Classic Mixed Vegetables simply taste better than dehydrated foods, offer a wider choice of both meat and plant meals, are lighter and are easier and quicker to rehydrate.
Freeze Dried products are generally more expensive than the dehydrated equivalent products, but are superior in every other aspect.
Very happy with this item. The moment I started rehydrating it smelled like veggies. The peas stayed a bit hard and the carrots stayed white, but other than that, I mixed it with some mince and couldn't tell the difference with fresh food. Definitely recommended.
I have tried this before and it tastes like the real deal. Like freshly picked vegetables. I bought it this time as back-up food for any disaster as the shelve life is so long. It was also a gift to friends who went hiking for a week. They loved it and agreed it tasted like fresh vegetables,
I am so glad to have fresh veggies on a hike. The only problem is the peas. They seem to rehydrate at a much slower rate than the other veg. In the end I soaked the veg for over an hour. Then the peas were ok. Other veg were great and rehydrated in 10 to 15 mins. I'd love to have other choices of veg. Maybe cauliflour and broccoli?
as a veggie dish, it needs some herbs, spices, some onion etc to make it really tasty.
added to mince, stew or chicken pot it is great, especialy when you have no fresh veg or out camping.
We tried the vegetables with the mince, it is easy to prepare and there is no difference in taste. Great product will purchase it again. Recommend this to everyone.
Proactive foods is no more than just a few days old when you get it. Which means you benefit from extended shelf life and quality. This is because they manufacture to order with great quality foods. I've purchased MRE's from sporting and hiking shops and the manufacture date was already way in the past. With Proactive foods you get the 25 years storage potential at a great price (discounted even further the more you buy) Awsome taste to.
I was very happy with the fast processing and friendly interaction with the Proactive team. The product packaging is good quality. Still have to open and test the taste.
Wow, this is GMO free wealth!! Tasty and very handy since its cut! Luv it - will stock up more. Buy re-sealable bags if you use small portions at a time.
