Our Verdict

Real Turmat has designed a wide range of meals that are tasty, light-weight and aimed at everyone and for any kind of outdoor activity. With a good balance of weight, calories and taste the range has been very popular. The range uses a unique drying process that removes only the water from the original dish. This secures a nutritious and lightweight meal – really easy to prepare without removing any of the flavour.

There are also the 'Field Meal' range which are designed for a balanced diet, developed for personnel in challenging situations. They generally have more calories included to help replace those used on longer or more challenging adventures.

9/10

STAFF'S TASTE TEST - “This is a delicious meal with a decent texture and mild Mediterranean flavours. It has to be one of my favourite veggie meals. The couscous and lentils provide filling carbs and protein, while spinach adds a nutritional boost. The carrot, onion, green beans, and cauliflower added flavour and texture.   It hydrated well in the recommended time.”
