The Method and Technology
Freeze-drying preserves food’s nutrients and flavor, extending its shelf-life to 8 years without additives.
The history of freeze-drying food
Indigenous people in the Andes of South America discovered two centuries ago, that taking frozen foods high up in the mountains, where air pressure is lower, causes ice crystals to vaporize. Fifty years ago, during the Vietnam War, the US Army industrialized this method for their special forces, providing lightweight, high-nutrition food for soldiers. Meals Ready-to-Eat (MREs) have been popular ever since.

Home cooked food for your next adventure
Tactical Foodpack meals begin with the preparation of balanced, preservative-free dishes that taste like homemade food. Our focus extends beyond calories, emphasizing flavor and appearance. After preparation, we freeze the meals and gently remove water in a vacuum chamber, retaining 99.7% of nutrients and taste. Just add water for a wholesome meal, or consume them as dry snacks in extreme conditions. Cold water can also be used, but hot water provides the best hot meal experience.
