A few weeks ago we gave away a pile of Strive dehydrated hiking food to some of our readers.
Christian was one person who contacted us and promised to shoot us a photo when he used the food an a bushwalking trip.
So, thanks to Christian and Miki who sent us a short email and picture showing them enjoying their meal.…

Ok, frogs legs were not on our menu but they WERE available at the market………
