Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Adventure Nutrition's Extreme Adventure 800 Kcal range are well above average calorie count for a freeze dried main course, ideal if you have a bigger appetite.

Adventure Nutrition says: 

Authentic Spicy Chicken Tikka Masala Without question, chicken tikka masala is a brilliant curry that makes people very happy. it’s inspired by fantastic Indian cooking, but is in fact an Anglo-Indian evolution.

Our Verdict

Adventure Nutrition's Extreme Adventure 800 Kcal range is a great range if standard freeze dried meals just don't seem to be enough.

A typical evening meal for me when backpacking is to start with a cup-a-soup & crackers, followed by a freeze dreid main meal and finally a freeze dried dessert. Sometimes I'll have a cereal bar as well with my coffee. That's quite a lot of calories and I find it sufficient, but the main freeze dried meals tend to be around the 5-600 calorie size. If I was to upgrade to these 800 calorie meals I could cut out one of the courses and save weight.

7/10

STAFF'S TASTE TEST - “The pieces of chicken are generous in size, but need a little more flavour, a bit more kick, it's lacking any heat, but if your not a fan of heat this is a very nice meal that has hydrated well.”
