Anyone tried Hotbox meals?

Hi all,

Just wondered if anyone had tried this UK manufacturer:

Are they any good? They seem pretty cheap, but that might be for a good reason!

i sold them for a long time in my shop and also ate some of them. i always try what i sell :wink:

2-3 years from now it was called "quick cuisine". this label run out and now it seems to show up with a new name.

the heating methode is very great. but the BIG cardboard box makes it unhandy.
the taste is the same as the french rations - also exactly the same 300 g cans inside.
its produced in switzerland and france.

I had a couple of "quick cuisine" meals back in 2008.
German_EPa is right, French RCIR entrees in another self heating box that didn´t worked :cry:
A waste of money at this time.
