Really good and cheaper than that amt of fresh veggies
Fresh veg are really expensive and good bad quick. This is like 2 months of daily veg sor a single person. For 20 bucks?! Not badAnd it's delicious when dehydrated. I love all the cabbage too!! I rehydrate for soups and stuff but also for salads!

Excellent
I love Augason Farms products, fresh and made in the USA. Product arrived in pristine condition, no dents or damage. I'm putting it in my stash, not opening it but the can feels full. These vegetables are a great option to make stews or soups, and add both flavor and nutritional value to rice, noodles and the like. Sprinkle on foraged greens or boil with shrimp, crabs, or shellfish. In an emergency you can never know what will be available long term so a can of vegetables like this would be very useful. In a pinch can make a nutritious soup with just it with some water. I like the #10 cans because the can itself is useful. Can use for storage, a planter, a strainer, a water filtering device, or even make a little "hobo stove" from it. Comes with a lid so you can reseal the remainder or whatever you want to store in the empty can. Foraged and scavenged food can be rather bland and random, this gives you an option to make a healthy, tasty meal with almost anything. Reconstitute and spread on bread with black pepper or put in a tortilla with a little chile or hot sauce and beans for a filling veggie lunch. I will continue adding to my stash using Augasons and other products. In today's world, it doesn't hurt to be prepared. Probably getting corn next - who doesn't like corn? :)

Nice addition to soups and stews, great for camping
Great to have on hand, especially since they keep well & are ebt acceptable online. We do a lot of camping and I wanted these to add to meals with less weight or risk of going bad. I also like keeping produce on hand but sometimes we dont use it up in time, so having the dried veggies is a life saver when life gets busy. Good way to finish up a lacking meal. Extra vitamins added to our meals plus makes my soups and stews more appealing to consume! Love a quick meal that has added nutrition that everyone devours!

No cooking instructions which is weird but otherwise great
Good - Nice mix, reasonable taste for what it is. You should add some seasoning if you can, but its just plain on its own so its still perfectly edible. Its worth noting that you don't actually have to fully cook it as the vegetables become tender enough with only a couple minutes in hot water (though if you do it that way it won't fully expand; if you want it as proper vegetable soup cook for the full time). Seal was good, didn't test the durability of the can as I got it as a pantry staple rather than a prepper food but I can't imagine it would have any issues if you just set it on a shelf and left it alone.Neutral - I've seen various complaints online that indicates the mix was focused; I'm fine with what I got, but I think they adjusted the ratios over time. And since it doesn't tell the exact ratio you can't really know exactly what you're getting. Understandable that they adjusted the ratio over time, but I do think an approximate disclosure would be nice.Bad - For some reason the actual instructions were removed but I was able to find some online; 1/4th cup of mix to 1 cup of water, bring to a slight boil, simmer for 10 minutes.Overall - Product 5/5 for the price; you'll probably need to pay a lot to get something better and if you're buying a large can of dehydrated vegetable medley you're probably not into that. 1 star off for not having even a basic ratio of mix to water listed.

Cheater chops
Veggie mix came in good condition. 2# .5 oz in a #10 can. It feels pretty full. I got this for those times when you want to make veggie soup and casseroles, but don't have the veggies and don't want to go to the grocery store. So...yes, it's lazy cooking BUT it's also quick and saves me alot of time!! And who of us doesn't deserve that?! This is a blend of dehydrated potatoes, cabbage, onion, carrots, celery, red and green bell peppers. I normally don't put bell peppers in my veggie soup, but since it is the last ingredient listed, I doubt there is an overabundance of them in there. No worries! It's no fat, low salt, low carbs and low calories so it is nutritious (well yes, it IS real veggies..)There is even a recipe for stew on the can! Looks like it rehydrates quickly as well! 30 or so minutes! It has a plastic resealable lid and is well within a good expiry date being 2028. I am pleased (and relieved) with this choice. When I open it, I will try to remember to update with a picture of the veggie mix itself. I don't want to expose the mix to air before I am ready to use. Soup in 90°+ weather isn't what my body calls for. I encourage you to join me in some lazy cooking! We will probably never have a TV show doing that, but at least I would know I'm not the only one doing that!
