Better Than Mountain House? CarniVault Put to the Test
In this episode, Mike Simmons joins me in the woods to answer one big question: Is CarniVault practical to carry in your go-bag? Unlike common processed meals like Mountain House, Ready Wise, or Peak Fuel, CarniVault is designed for people who want to eat clean. The trade-off? It requires hydration, cooking, and a little “churching up” before it’s ready. The recommended hydration time is 2–4 hours, but we push the limits to see if we can make it work faster with only the gear in our kits. To boost it, we add rice, seasoning, and hot sauce—turning it into a healthier option for anyone planning a 24-hour or 72-hour pack. From start to finish, we test the process in real conditions and see if CarniVault deserves a spot in your bag. ? Stick around to find out if this meal is worth the weight, time, and effort.
