41 - Freeze Dried Fraud

from Backpacking & Blisters: A Hiking, Backpacking, and Adventure Show · host Carl Mandrioli

Are the freeze dried food companies price gouging backpackers? Or is it simply okay to call it a splurge if you pay $8 for mac and cheese? Derek and Carl address these questions along with providing food-related tips (not recipes) that just might be helpful. Carl also references a phone call he made to Mountain House Foods where he brings up a few issues with a customer service representative.  GET MORE CONTENT!
