MREs are heavy and shitty (not literally though) and are designed primarily to store well and survive mass transit. I used them for one week long trip as a novice and didnt shit the whole week. would not recommend but larpers will cry foul bc you have to use military rations to be truly /out/side. Best option for backpacking is any of the freeze dried meals you can get at REI supplemented with jerky, snacks, tortilla + tuna/chicken packets for lunch. if you have a fisherman in your party you can bum olive oil to pad even more calories
