Good day,

The wife brought in some packets advertised on lookwhatwefound.com These were being sold for about £2 per packet. Booths in Chorley are selling them for 99 pence at the moment. All sorts from meatballs, venison, curry etc. I have been taking them to work as well. The shelf life on the packet is until Jan 2013. Worth getting some in now.You can microwave or boil in the bag, or if desperate eat cold. These are the first foods out of a packet I have actually enjoyed. Can anyone recommend any others??

Cheers4now,

Morning Dave1950!

I'm not too far from Chorley, I'm in Bolton........they look great for backpacking!! At 99p too, they look much nicer than the Wayfarer type packets aimed specifically at backpackers!! Home produce too! I'm very tempted to go and get a shedload in for this years adventures!!!

Thanks for posting!

Darn, shame its a bit of a hike to get over there from Liverpool.

When backpacking I usually eat rice (Uncle Bens 2 minute mircrowave packets are good since they can be done on even a small burner in less than 10 mins) or soup of some sort. I generally buy stuff whilst out walking to limit the amount of weight I have to carry at the start of the walk.
