Our Verdict
Adventure Nutrition's Extreme Expedition Food 1000 Kcal Chicken & vegetables pasta is one of a small range of 1000Kcal meals, basically 1000 calories is huge, and from experience I know its difficult to eat in one sitting. Having said that I always take a few if I'm going on a long-ish trek because you can easily fail to eat enough. Often by day 5 or 6 I find I haven't been consuming enough calories because I feel weak and lacking energy - that's when I finish early and break out a 1000 calorie pouch. Last time was in Iceland - I ate my 1000 calories about three in the afternoon and was still ready for an evening meal later on.

| STAFF'S TASTE TEST - "We would recommend using slightly less water than is recommended; everything hydrated well, but it was a little sloppy. It's packed full of flavour and had a variety of textures added to the dish." |
