Press Articles

This hearty, pepper-flecked soup won tester praise for bringing gourmet-style chowder to the trail: "The creamy richness, tongue-tingling poblano and slight sweetness of the firm corm kernels made this my favorite cool-evening appetizer," says one. With just 300 calories and 11 grams of fat, it's also a great meal for hikers looking to eat healthy without sacrificing flavor, or as an hors d'oeuvre compliment to Southwestern - or meat and potatoes - style entrees.

frequently asked questions

Why is a Cook–in–Cozy™ recommended?
 

We recommend that all of our hot meals spend time "steep-cooking" while snuggled in a Cook-in-Cozy. We find this method promotes a more consistent temperature and steady cook time for Cook-in-Bag preparation; and results in a better serving temperature for your meal. When not in use, our Cook-in-Cozy folds away nicely in your pack for storage and weighs in at only 1.4oz.

    Really not that good. Certainly not worth the price. I’d go so far as to say it’s a bit bland. It does have some mild heat to it, but overall the flavor is pretty flat. I ordered a few of these because it sounded great, but it’s not. Now I’m left wondering what to do with the three I have left. I don’t want to pack them into the wilderness and there’s no reason to eat this at home. Disappointing considering the quality of many of their other items.

    It is cold outside right now...20's. Just ate this corn chowder and it hit the spot! Lots of corn and just the right little tingle from the poblano and spices...I think you could really play with this with milk instead of water, maybe some cheese...but on a cold day in the wind this was spot on!

    Excellent meal! I loved the sweet corn. Tasted like fresh corn off the cob. Very satisfying and a great change of pace from everyday backpacking meals. A new favorite!

    Very satisfying! I love corn chowder and this definitely hits the spot, with just the right amount of kick. It was rainy and miserable one day of our trip and this was the perfect comfort food to warm up with.

    I ate this for breakfast. Its a lot of food for breakfast, but if its cold out and you have a high mileage day; perhaps ideal. It has a lot of corn and is very comforting. I too think it could benefit from adding some breakfast or summer sausage to keep it from being one note, but I'd eat it again!

    This has potential, but it just does not seem to be "there" yet. It does have a fair bit of corn in it, a lot actually, but it just seemed like all I was eating was corn kernels. Not worth the price. Not even close

      Really not that good. Certainly not worth the price. I’d go so far as to say it’s a bit bland. It does have some mild heat to it, but overall the flavor is pretty flat. I ordered a few of these because it sounded great, but it’s not. Now I’m left wondering what to do with the three I have left. I don’t want to pack them into the wilderness and there’s no reason to eat this at home. Disappointing considering the quality of many of their other items.

      It is cold outside right now...20's. Just ate this corn chowder and it hit the spot! Lots of corn and just the right little tingle from the poblano and spices...I think you could really play with this with milk instead of water, maybe some cheese...but on a cold day in the wind this was spot on!

      Excellent meal! I loved the sweet corn. Tasted like fresh corn off the cob. Very satisfying and a great change of pace from everyday backpacking meals. A new favorite!

      Very satisfying! I love corn chowder and this definitely hits the spot, with just the right amount of kick. It was rainy and miserable one day of our trip and this was the perfect comfort food to warm up with.

      I ate this for breakfast. Its a lot of food for breakfast, but if its cold out and you have a high mileage day; perhaps ideal. It has a lot of corn and is very comforting. I too think it could benefit from adding some breakfast or summer sausage to keep it from being one note, but I'd eat it again!

      Spicy, sweet fire roasted corn, creamy. Not to salty and maybe some kind of protien would be great added in. Very good

      This has potential, but it just does not seem to be "there" yet. It does have a fair bit of corn in it, a lot actually, but it just seemed like all I was eating was corn kernels. Not worth the price. Not even close

    This hearty, pepper-flecked soup won tester praise for bringing gourmet-style chowder to the trail: "The creamy richness, tongue-tingling poblano and slight sweetness of the firm corm kernels made this my favorite cool-evening appetizer," says one. With just 300 calories and 11 grams of fat, it's also a great meal for hikers looking to eat healthy without sacrificing flavor, or as an hors d'oeuvre compliment to Southwestern - or meat and potatoes - style entrees.

    frequently asked questions

    Why is a Cook–in–Cozy™ recommended?
     

    We recommend that all of our hot meals spend time "steep-cooking" while snuggled in a Cook-in-Cozy. We find this method promotes a more consistent temperature and steady cook time for Cook-in-Bag preparation; and results in a better serving temperature for your meal. When not in use, our Cook-in-Cozy folds away nicely in your pack for storage and weighs in at only 1.4oz.
