5 Reasons to try Outdoor Herbivore

1. For the Retail Experience.

If you are like me, you probably look for ways to avoid the big-box store chaos. Many of us outdoor enthusiasts share a similar lifestyle. A majority of us loathe the impersonal, box store shopping experience and prefer to support the local “mom and pop” shop alternative, but find that option nonexistent. We figure the next best alternative is to support an independent online retailer. And, we guarantee that your shopping experience with us will be an enjoyable one. Have a question? Contact Us and we will be happy to help you.

Please note that all products purchased from this site are sourced within the United States, so every dollar you spend supports our economy. Thank You!

2. For the Taste.

Outdoor Herbivore’s trail food reflect a combination of influences from all over the world. We have put our mastery to work to combine grains, vegetables, spices, and herbs to impart tasty, distinct flavors. Looking for lower sodium? We use a variety of dried herb seasonings to provide a range of flavor without all the salt.

3. 100% Vegetarian.

Maybe you are a “Trail Vegetarian.” We have found that many outdoor recreationists refrain from eating meat – not out of choice, but because it is impractical to carry out meat. Or, maybe you just don’t want to attract the appetite of a hungry bear. Even if you are not a vegetarian/vegan in your daily life you can still benefit from enjoying healthier food. On the other hand, you could add you own meat to the food — if you insist.

4. Reduced Waste.

Forget having to open a bunch of fancy packages and dumping ingredients into Ziploc bags at home, or trying to accommodate trail food packaged in bulky plastic pouches rated for boiling water. Stand-up pouches may be a great feature for retail shelves, or consuming from, but not for packing out. We do not like the idea of pouring boiling water into a plastic bag. We help you to save on waste and space by combining all our ingredients in a flat, resealable poly-bag sized to fit each meal portion. This packaging is for the purpose of efficient transport, rather than for boiling water. The design is lighter on the environment and your back. No pouch, less ouch. 

5. Save your Energy and Finesse for the Outdoors.

Our products eliminate the need to make trips to the local store to hunt down ingredients. That means no traffic stress or wasted time browsing the food aisles. It allows you more time to plan your backpacking, biking, hiking, canoeing/kayaking, or motorcycling trip route rather than preparing meals at home.  Best of all: No mess for you to clean up in the kitchen. Life Simplified.
