Cheddar Jack Cheese Spread








"Real cheese flavor, blended with spices and veggies, make this spread way more appetizing than I expected," says a tester whose family scarfed it in Rocky Mountain National Park. Bring your own crackers, tortilla or extras to dip. Prep: Just add cold water.

BYOB (Bring Your Own Bread) - Tortillas
Tortillas are best eaten fresh and become susceptible to mold if not eaten quickly. To ensure that you’re enjoying the freshest meal available, we ask that you pack your own bread products. If you live in an area where tortillas are not available, please contact us and we’ll overnight you a package of tortillas for your trip (charges apply).



What is the “Tool Kit”?
Our complementary meal pack tool kit includes several little items that you may find helpful when cooking in the outdoors. You can choose to have the tool kit included in your meal pack or opt out if you’ll already be carrying these items with you. The following items are included in our two-person kit (single serving meals get one of each item):

    We tried out the many beans salad and the cheese spread today. Impressive! Never before has any prepackaged food tasted better than what I've made myself. Great job! Just put in another order. Yummy!

    Not quite as creamy as the chicken salad, but our crew loved the tangy kick of this spread for lunch.

    This was by far the biggest surprise. It was a dried cheese (could have been freeze dried) with spices. It took a while to rehydrate but was surprisingly good. I ate this for lunch with some crackers.

    Preparation: The preparation was simple. Add water and a mayonnaise packet, stir it up and let sit for 10 minutes. At 10 minutes it was still a bit crunchy but another 5 minutes cured that.

    Taste: The taste was very good with just a bit of spice, very cheesy.
