      You need to hunt unicorn in remote backwaters of Scotland. Not as easy to track as Haggis but a decent challenge to stalk & claim for a feast. Gotta put the effort in if you want to eat well!

    Hope you’re well.
    I have actually tried that,as someone gave me one for Christmas (as it’s Reindeer),for my January bivvy night.
    I must admit to it tasting quite nice, but I don’t think I would pay for one myself.
    All the best.👍🏾⛺️

    I like all Real Turmat food. When I go hiking to Finnish lapland, i've planned that trip for weeks if not months. I dont care what it costs. I planned that. Then I carry these foods.
    When I go for just over night, I take fresh food.
    It is all just a bought weight that you carry. And I have to say that these Real Turmat (Norvegian), are the best tasting that I have tried!

    Turmat in Norwegian translates roughly to Hiking food.
    Tur (sounds like tuur with a long vowel) = hike
    Mat (sounds like maat with a long vowel) = food
    I might be a bit off on that me being Swedish, but roughly it should be something like that.
    Keep it up, love the videos 👍👋🇸🇪

    I made a test of all Real Turmat meals some years ago. It’s in Norwegian I’m afraid, but there is a conclution at the end of the last one.
    My favourite meal right now is the Bacalao and the Salomon.

    I really love the Real Turmat meals. However, I only buy them as a luxury item when I really wanna chill. It's too expensive having these meals as a main source of food on your hikes.
    Personally I haven't noticed any package with too much salt, that might be personal taste. But what I have a problem with is I always get some dry chuncks that have not been hydrated, so I need to have it soak in the water for 5 minutes over the original time.
    Lovely video btw, as always!

    Salt is needed in relation to your sweat. Athletes, construction workers, roofers, asphalt layers etc can lose grams of salt through sweating. I over sweat just sitting still, and always travel with salt. I have not gone past the shaking/collapsing stage into full convulsions, coma and death due salt lost, but that outcome is a real outcome for many unfortunately. It is a meal meant for a person being physically active and actively losing salt through perspiration.
