OMEALS Vegetarian Chili-MRE-Extended Shelf Life-Fully Cooked w/Heater-Perfect for Outdoor Enthusiasts, Travelers, Emergency Supplies-USA Made

I need more calorie intake when I backpack but the contents contained only 1- 227 gram serving with only 160 calories. This calorie amount is not sufficient for extended backpacking trips. I need about 3000 calories daily and this amount, 3 meals a day, would only account for 480 calories. An MRE, on average, has 1250 calories at the same price. The cost was ridiculously high for such a small amount of food. I would not buy this product again.

This review is for ALL OMeals flavors. While the flavor is actually really good, the package weight is 8 ounces. While carrying a few of these for a short backpacking trip isn't too much of a hassle, the calorie count for the weight isn't worth it, in my opinion. The vegetarian chili is about a cup, maybe, of food with 160 calories. This isn't meal-sized portions, especially when hiking/backpacking, so one would need to carry these meals plus supplements or other calorie sources - adding up to way too much food weight. I would recommend these for a light camping trip, but honestly, you can find better priced options. The flavor is good, but not good enough to make it worth it.

Good food it has to be seasoned to your taste and according to your health needs , good self heating system it truly heats up in fluid's it would be great if the pac was bigger with more food, it's not enough food for the price but it will keep people from starving how ever they will want to eat more than one pack at a time.

The meals are actually quite tasty. Amazing self heating is versatile because you can use the hot liquid to warm up other stuff like instant coffee inside the envelope.

Quantity was just good. A bit more would have been better but no complaints. Taste was perfect. Preparation was so damn easy.
