I've probably had about 50 or 60 of them. The meals are very good. I especially liked the lasagne and the pepper steak. The breakfast meal with pancakes is very tasty, too. The heater works well, too.

Like dirtbag said, $5.50 seems high for just a single entree. They aren't very big, and if you're working hard or out in the cold and wet, a grown man could easily wolf down 2 or 3 of these.

I've seen something advertised as a "Heater Meal Plus" that is an entree supplemented with side dishes to make it a whole meal. If that's what you're talking about, $5.50 sounds about fair.

I tried them at the Hurricane Conference in Orlando. TASTY! They cook up quick, have good texture too.
