Why do you think campers and soldiers use freeze-dried foods?
It seems that in campaigns or in the conditions in which the soldiers are located, freeze-dried products are best suited. As you said, they can’t keep food in the refrigerator. I also think that they do not always have the opportunity to cook everything under normal conditions. But, to be honest, I have always had a hard time hiking. It is much more comfortable to cook and eat at home. I love to cook, so I especially appreciate the comfort in the kitchen. And more often than not, I use a kitchen scale to prepare a meal perfectly. Even when I first bought food scale on amazon, I realized that this is a handy thing in the kitchen. I stumbled upon https://www.amazon.com/Vont-Beautiful-Measurement-Stainless-Batteries/dp/B08SW6F5SZ when I was looking for new kitchen products. And you know, I have never regretted it. But now, I wouldn’t say I like hiking with freeze-dried food even more. I would never trade homemade food for this.
