Is this meal spicy?
Yes, this meal has a fair amount of spice. It is a Thai Curry, after all! However, when compared to many authentic Thai curries, it would be considered fairly mild. Heat is subjective, so if you are the type to find a medium salsa way too hot, then you might steer clear. If you have a tolerance for and enjoy spicy foods, you'll find this dish to be a nice medium-level heat.
Wait, this meal contains milk?
Allow us to explain: You may have noticed in the ingredient list that this meal contains coconut milk, which is not a dairy product. But it also states that it contains milk as a potential allergen. This is due to the very small amount of sodium caseinate—contained within the separate coconut milk powder pouch—which acts as a stabiliser for the coconut powder. Please use discretion if you have an allergy/intolerance to milk.
X Tear pouch open and REMOVE oxygen absorber and coconut milk powder pouch.

This spicy yellow coconut curry was our first meal to win the Backpacker Magazine Editors' Choice Award in 2014 and it’s still a favorite among Good To-Go loyalists.

I shared this with a friend while we were out at a State Park. It was super delicious! The spices are just right. I would definitely order it again. It's on the top of my list!
This is the other Good to Go meal i have tried, and it's a winner. It will be on the menu this summer.
This is the kind of camp food you almost are happy to eat at home. It's the favorite camp food for all three of us in the family, and we load up on it for our relatively lengthy trips so as to have it for 4 or 5 nights. Very tasty, good consistency, not salty, very tasty. Did I mention very tasty? We recommend several camp foods to friends just starting to explore the subject, but this is the one we push like we're evangelicals, drug dealers, or company employees (we're none of those things btw).
We love thai curry and I was super excited to see this as a meal option when we went camping! Even my kids liked it. I definitely recommend this one! :)
Love this meal. I'll add more protein if I feel the need.
Taste like a great Thai restaurant.
