The Mountain House freeze-dried chili mac 6-pack is a 6-pack of chili mac with beef pouches — macaroni in spicy beef-and-bean chili sauce, just-add-water freeze-dried. The meal is fully cooked at Oregon Freeze Dry’s Albany, Oregon plant before freeze-drying, so just-add-water rehydration produces real cooked-food texture and flavor instead of dehydrated brick.
Right meal for backpacker comfort-food crews, multi-day hike rotations, weekend camp groups, emergency-prep variety stockpiles. Mountain House defined the freeze-dried backpacking and emergency-prep category — the same line ships to U.S. military rations programs and to backcountry outfitters.
Mountain House is the consumer brand of Oregon Freeze Dry — Albany, Oregon since 1963 — the original American freeze-dried-meal company. Mountain House meals are cooked, freeze-dried, and packaged at the Oregon plant with a 30-year shelf life on the pouch line and the #10 cans. The brand built its category by supplying U.S. military rations and is the default reference for backpacker and emergency-prep food.
