Foundation Outdoors Superior Freeze Dried Meals & Snacks

100% Freeze Dried, Fully Cooked OUTDOOR MEALS

Restaurant Quality in the Backcountry™

Superior quality and unparalleled value… That is what qualifies Foundation Outdoor Meals for a spot on the Falconview Visionary Outdoor Innovations product roster.

Consider this…

While you may not have heard the name – YET – FOUNDATION Outdoors is USA's largest co-manufacturer of outdoor meals. Over the last decade, they have produced millions of meals for many of the leading national brands. Through years of experience and extensive knowledge of the outdoors, they have now launched our own "best in category" outdoor meal brand.

What Makes Foundation Outdoors Meals Different… AND BETTER…

They're 100% freeze-dried, fully-cooked chef inspired meals.
They're made using only 100% real meat and veggies. No, not every brand can say that.
They are cooked from scratch at our USDA-inspected and SQF food-safe facility, and safety. Again, not every brand can make such a claim.
And perhaps most importantly, they are prepared in small batches, ensuring the highest standards of quality. NO OTHER BRAND can claim this level of care in preparation of their meals.

We trust you'll enjoy FOUNDATION Outdoors, wherever your journey takes you.

The Falcon's View (Our take on these products)

From my very first taste of Foundation Outdoors Spaghetti with Meat Sauce Meal, I was hooked. This was as good as my mother's, and that's saying something! I've tried most of their offerings and every one has been exceptional. When I say that, I am comparing their meals, not just to other freeze dried meals, but to everyday recipes you regularly make and eat. As for the direct comparison to other freeze dried brands, I love everything Foundation does to make their product better than the best. And it is!
