Shopping at militaria.pl turned out to be an excellent choice, especially when it comes to freeze-dried food. I bought several meals for a few days' stay in the Bieszczady Mountains and they worked perfectly. First of all, the taste – I was surprised at how much it resembled home-cooked food! The beef stew with potatoes was aromatic, filling and really tasty. Another advantage is practicality – small packages, easy preparation (just hot water) and lightweight, which is important during backpacking treks. In addition, the portions are filling, so you don't need to eat a lot of them. The store service was impeccable – fast shipping and solid packaging. A huge plus is also the long shelf life, so you can stock up for emergencies. I recommend it to anyone looking for reliable food for outdoor trips.

Shopping at militaria.pl turned out to be a great choice, especially when it comes to freeze-dried food. I ordered several meals for a few days' stay in the Bieszczady Mountains and they proved to be excellent. First of all – the taste, which strongly resembles home-cooked meals, which pleasantly surprised me. Secondly – convenience: the packs are small, the food is easy to prepare by just adding boiling water, and the whole thing is light, which is ideal for backpacking trips. Importantly, these meals are very filling, so you don't need much to feel satisfied. The shop's service is flawless – fast shipping, everything packed securely. An additional advantage is the long expiry date, making the products suitable for storage just in case. I recommend it to anyone looking for proven food for outdoor trips.

The set can be considered from two aspects: as a way to prepare a hot meal and as a meal itself. In the first case, it works excellently – nothing is missing, all elements are described and match the description, and everything works flawlessly. The operation is simple, tidy, and does not require the use of fire. As for the dish itself, it is more like a soup with fusilli pasta and bacon bits, reminiscent of the taste of carbonara, although there is a slightly plastic aftertaste, but it is still acceptable. A large part of the dish is liquid, which can be consumed together with the panzer wafer. The weight of the dish is 350g.
-
The set is rather average, with peas being the dominant ingredient, which is definitely too much compared to the meat. The idea of a chemical heater is interesting, although the meal doesn’t always reach the right temperature. I’d probably go for a different dish than this particular one.
-
The taste is average, but that depends on personal preference. An advantage is that the set contains everything needed for a full meal. Everything is well vacuum-packed and the expiry date is fine.
-
A complete meal that can be quickly heated up. The packaging is airtight, although not very visually appealing and doesn't encourage eating. However, the taste itself is fine.
-
Quite a tasty meal, quick and easy to prepare, the heater works efficiently, and there’s no need to wash the dishes. The set is rather heavy, but you can eat your fill without needing to bring extra food and enjoy something hot.
-
Very good ration, it will prove useful both during mountain trips and as an emergency backpack food supply. Usability for a year – it could be longer, but it doesn't bother me. A big plus is that the water for heating the meal is already included in the set, so you don't have to use your own. Compared to other rations, it definitely takes up less space. I honestly recommend it.
-
Great ration. The meal is fresh and very well prepared.
-
It's worth having such food rations on hand. They will come in handy during a trip to the forest or a long journey, as they allow you to eat a hot meal without having to light a fire.
-
The goulash is delicious and doesn't contain fatty or sinewy pieces of meat.
-
The goulash has a classic taste and is very filling.
-
Taste is a matter of personal preference. It suits me. Ideal for long journeys. I was worried that the packaging might get damaged in my backpack with other things, but it turned out to be solid.
