Expedition Foods says

Chocolate pudding is a classic, favourite dessert and is great for breakfast too! This delightful, kid-friendly (but adults love it too) treat combines creamy and satisfying rich chocolate with chocolate chip biscuits to add a bit of crunch. Easy to make -- just add water and stir. Wow!

Preparation: REMOVE THE OXYGEN ABSORBER* (Sachet) from inside the pouch. Slowly add up to 130ml hot water, stirring as you pour and then close the bag. Wait 5-8 minutes for the food to rehydrate.

Cold water will suffice, however the re-hydration time is much longer.

* The oxygen absorber helps maintain product freshness and is non toxic. DO NOT EAT.

Expedition Foods meals have a long shelf life of up to 5 years.

6/10

STAFF'S TASTE TEST - Reconstitution time is 5-8 minutes so you really need to keep it warm, being a dessert it's quite low mass and seems to get cold much quicker than your standard main meal. Mine went cold and tasted a lot worse because of that. It's basically a glutinous mass, definitely chocolaty but I’m only giving it 6/10, mainly because a mars bar or something like that would have been more satisfying.
