It's kind of odd China is seemingly the only country that has figured out MREs are good convenience food

How the fuck is all western MREs 30€-a-meal tacticool m4 extrem trail hike: school schooter edition when, going by sold out online listings, I could get a chinese self heating hot pot for like 5 eurodollars?
These things would be insanely convenient to just toss in my bike bag and have a warm vegan meal on a cold days bike ride

These look good and like there's a lot of food for so cheap. Meanwhile in stanky USA we get pitiful ramen that just sucks
Ramen absolutely has it's place in the world and I do consider it one of the miracles of modernity but man, I want like some actual vegetables in my convenience foods occasionally instead of freeze dried flavor cubes
I just throw in fresh green onion and sugar snap peas into the bowl before I pour the ramen in on top. Gives that veggie crumch that I crave.
See my thing is if I had the facilities to store and prepare green onions and peas I could probably whip up like an actual meal, I like ramen for it's convenience of "throw it in my work locker and forget about it for 6 months until I forget or didn't manage to pack a lunch"
Same deal with the hot pots, plus the self heating thing would be good as fuck for outdoorsy activities so I don't have to carry an extra thermos can of hot water
If you can't grow them I recommend buying then on special, chopping them up into however you like them best then freezing them. Then I have them all year round!
Bruh even the Chinese instant noodles are more advanced. The other day I got one with a dehydrated veggie pack, peanuts, and dehydrated tofu skin. It's the only vegetarian instant noodles I've had that wasn't just a pitiful vegetable pack.
