Acceptable taste, great convenience, adequate value
Great additions to your emergency food supplies. Too expensive to use exclusively in that role, of course, but for a few meals a week, interspersed with more traditional fare, or for quick meals while traveling or hiking, these are the way to go. They taste at least acceptable, and some taste very good, depending on the menu.
One drawback: the portion sizes quoted are FAR too small. They range from 2 to 2½ servings per packet, but I find it more practical to 'budget' for one packet per person per meal. If you're working hard physically, you might want to extend that to 2 packets per person per meal. Even so, they remain very useful, and I'll always have a few dozen packets on hand.
