Great things come in small packages

Postby stu » Fri 27 Aug, 2010 4:36 pm

As someone who is obsessive in packaging & organising my food for multi day trips (particularly 4+ days) the following website makes my heart flutter:

http://www.minimus.biz/default.aspx

I haven't ordered from here yet & I'm not sure about import restrictions on things like food, but I love the idea of little single serve goodies.

I usually pack my food for multi day trips in 24 hour ration style packs (a hangover from my Army Reserve days when I was a teenager).
I like the idea of being able to take out a pack at the start of each day & it has all my food pre-organised & pre-packaged, saving on fussing around through my pack & each days rubbish just goes back into the packaging of the ration pack (usually a large size zip-lok baggie).
This way you never run short by the end of the trip, you create variety in each ration pack & if any pack got breached (water for example) it's only a small loss.

Anyone know of any local / national suppliers of similar single serve type goods? :D

The army?

Seriously, prepackaged meals are provided to organisations like the RFS and SES. One of the companies is at http://quartermaster.com.au
