sorry, but to clarify, I guess what i'm looking for are for long term storable
foods that are
A) Nutrionally dense
B) Easy to prepare and re-hydrate
C) Preferably, pre-flavored/mixed (ie, dried sauces)

These are mainly what i look for in backpacking food, but agian, i've never
tried foods older than a week or two.

thanks again
John
