{"product_id":"mountain-house-chili-mac-with-beef-10-can","title":"Mountain House Chili Mac with Beef #10 Can","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eMountain House Chili Mac with Beef is a freeze-dried meal in a #10 can: big macaroni noodles in a beef and bean chili, designed for long-term emergency food storage. The can holds 10 servings, each providing 230 calories and 12 grams of protein, and requires only hot water and a few minutes to prepare. Cold or room-temperature water works too, though rehydration time doubles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for Long-Term Storage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe #10 can format is the standard for serious emergency food storage because it holds more food per container and protects contents from light and moisture far longer than pouch packaging. Mountain House backs this can with a 30-Year Taste Guarantee, meaning the food is warranted to taste as intended for three decades. That is a meaningful commitment for a product you may store and never open. The included plastic lid reseals the can after opening, and contents stored that way are acceptable for up to one week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eReady in Under 10 Minutes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChili Mac with Beef prepares in less than 10 minutes with hot water, with no cooking equipment required beyond a way to heat water. When hot water isn't available, cold or room-temperature water rehydrates the meal at roughly double the time. The can is sized for feeding a family or a group: make the entire can at once or scoop out individual servings as needed. No draining, no separate pot for the pasta.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAll-Natural Ingredients, No Artificial Additives\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe recipe uses hearty precooked beef, kidney beans, enriched macaroni, and a blend of chili pepper, cumin, paprika, and garlic. It contains no artificial flavors, no artificial colors, and no preservatives. The meal is dairy free. It does contain wheat (enriched durum semolina macaroni), which is the only declared allergen. Savory spice levels are moderate enough for family use while still delivering the flavor profile the recipe is known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10 servings per can:\u003c\/strong\u003e each serving is 1¼ cups dry mix, making 1 cup prepared\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e230 calories and 12g protein per serving:\u003c\/strong\u003e substantive nutrition for emergency or camp use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJust-add-water preparation:\u003c\/strong\u003e hot, cold, or room-temperature water all work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e30-Year Taste Guarantee:\u003c\/strong\u003e backed by Mountain House for long-term storage confidence\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives:\u003c\/strong\u003e dairy free formulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResealable with included plastic lid:\u003c\/strong\u003e opened contents acceptable up to one week after opening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFormat\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e#10 Can\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eServings per container\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e10\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eServing size\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1¼ cups (54g) dry mix \/ makes 1 cup prepared\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCalories per serving\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e230\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eProtein per serving\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e12g\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSodium per serving\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e720mg\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAllergens\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eContains wheat\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDietary notes\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDairy free, no artificial flavors, no artificial colors, preservative free\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePreparation time\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLess than 10 minutes (hot water); double time with cold or room-temperature water\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAfter opening\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eUse immediately or reseal with included plastic lid; acceptable up to one week after opening\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShipping weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1.9 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eChili Mac with Beef in the #10 can is well suited to households building long-term emergency food storage, families who want a large-format meal ready in minutes during a power outage or storm, and camp cooks feeding groups where a single can covers multiple servings at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThis product contains wheat and is not appropriate for anyone with a wheat allergy or gluten intolerance.
