Freeze dried shrimp

“HELP
Can't find it - I know Alpine Aire makes it, but can't find anywhere to buy it.
Anyone know??”

“thanks K leetn!!!!”

“My experiences with Alpine Aire have been bad. I still have some of their crap. I am saving it for the Nuclear Holocaust. Bleech!”

“What freeze dried foods do you use Bacpac? or do you make your own.”

“I was thinking the same thoughts bacpac but I hesitated to spoil dinner. Now I'll tell that I took some of their shrimp one time and we had to bury it and eat peanut butter crackers for dinner.”

“that bad - I was drying shrimp - didn't come out too bad. Maybe I'll stick with that.
Thanks for the heads up”

“I've dehydrated the little frozen cocktail shrimp from the grocery. They're pre-cooked, worked nicely.”

“MOUNTAIN HOUSE makes some tastee stuff!

Alpine Air is awful.”

“I was taking the shrimp - cutting them down the center and drying them. Add them to my own mixes. But they take some time to re-hydrate.
I'll just bag them septerately and add water at lunch.
I usually dont eat the dehydrated stuff. Just the salsa, and dried chicken.
Mountian house - couldn't find just shrimp with them.”

“Have you tried Asian markets? Dried shrimp, shiitake, tree fungus, etc. Lots of tasty stuff, but they must be well re-hydrated before they're used. I add all the above to Asian ramen (supermarket ramen just turns to mush) with soy sauce, ginger, vinegar and crushed chili pepper. A real treat after a couple days on the trail.”

“Sounds good gremlin, except the tree fungus. That's what oyster mushrooms look like to me.”

“Tree fungus, also called tree ear mushrooms are dried black mushrooms that are used in
Sze-Tchouan cooking. Some people - medical people - believe they are a factor in the incredibally low heart disease rates in that province of China. North Americans have made 'prononciomenti' about food from Japan, Crete and God knows where - also about chronic fasting in the Hunza region of Afghanistan/Pakistan. Personnally, I think it's low stress, slow motion, constant physical exercise in the out of doors, along with moderate wine and beer consumption (interchangeable) - but, hey, that's just me. They are delicious, By the way. Happy trails and don't forget to re-hydrate well first.”
