When you’re out in the wild, you should live so fully and recklessly that you’re happy to be alive and healthy by the end of the day. You should push yourself to the point where you can rejoice in the fact that you’ve got a warm cup of food in one hand, a spoon in the other, plus a mouth full of teeth. After all, things could be way worse. Everywhere you look, ready-to-eat meals are touted as being the quick, easy and tasty way to set food supply for you and your family. Bringing a twist to these meals are the Tiffin-to-go products. They don’t need a marketing tagline, but their product speaks for itself. Just add hot water and in minutes your family will be enjoying an amazingly delicious, hot, nutritious meal. All of this in an easy to use pouch with an amazing shelf life is their guarantee. Made from a latest American Technology called Freeze Drying, the product is already raving amongst the food critics. Freeze drying is simple. Through the process of freeze-drying complete meals are quick-frozen. In the stages that follow, the water they contain is extracted gradually by heat treatment. The advantage of freeze-drying is that they tend to keep their freshness, texture and nutritional values. As a result of the small amount of water they contain, and thanks to the protected atmosphere in which they are prepared and sealed at the Tiffin-to-go factory, these meals have an extremely extended shelf life. Mr. ---- says, in one of his recent days trekking in Himalaya base camp, “when I came stumbling down from a snowbound butte after 12 hours of nothing, l was so hungry that I was sucking on the palm of my glove to extract the leathery flavor. Back at camp, I dug through my gear and found a bag of Tiffin-to-go cups that my wife bought at an online store couple of weeks earlier and 1,000 miles away in Chennai. The packet had been living alternately in my gear closet, the inside of a tent, and, for the last 20 miles, the bottom of my backpack. It was all my frozen fingers could do to boil some water and viola, I was eating Puliyodarai there. Can you imagine? This has been a life saver”. When you’re out in the backcountry putting in full days of activity, you want food that will nourish you, strengthen you, revitalize you and taste really good. We think that’s what these amazing meals have been doing. “I don’t generally consume packaged food as they contain high amount of preservatives and artificial flavors. Being a diabetic, my health demands fresh & healthy meals with right ingredients. While shopping at amazon.in last week, I found Tiffin-to-go meals, their products looked exotic, Red Rice Poha, Millets Khichdi, Banana Walnut Oatmeal etc. I must say, these meals are exactly what they claim it to be, fresh, tasty, no preservatives and just the right quantity. Now they are regulars in my shopping list” admits Mrs.---------, a 48 year old diabetic from ------- Well, twenty-something young adults, suburban moms and Jazzercising retirees are also filling their closets and cupboards with Tiffin-to-go meals, which comes in cheery packaging rather than the traditional dreary plain cardboard. And with delicious taste, not to mention, vegetarian and gluten-free options, it’s never been easier to eat well in the face of the emergencies.

Sometimes living away from home can have its own downfall. You miss your family, your friends; you miss the luxury of having a maid, a laundry man and vegetables/fruits etc delivered to your doorstep at no extra charge. But most importantly you miss the food. They may be striking deals for self or on behalf of their companies on foreign soil, sharing dinner lunches and dinners with top executives at five-star settings, but the experience is far from satisfying the taste buds of home-food-craving Indians. Living away from home is not easy. “I always remember the once irritating (but now seemingly musical!) calling of the vegetable seller, the occasional trash collector, the maids zooming in and out of the house, vehicles hooting, screeching, stopping on the adjacent street, current popular songs playing on ear deafening loudspeaker-cum-music system in passing cars, the distant and yet so audible temple bells.....yes the sounds of life you once thought was noise” admits ----- , a student studying in Fargo, USA. A recent survey, puts home food third in ranking among the top three things Indian business travelers, students studying abroad or just fancy Indian tourist miss during their trips. Family and home sickness are the other two things that figure ahead of ghar ka khana. Adjusting to a foreign country, especially the culture and food over there is a tough task. Food is one major problem student’s face when going abroad for higher studies. Most of the time, they find it very difficult to adjust to the food in the host country. While India is the land of spices, many foreign cuisines use little or no spice. Craving for home-made food is very common among the students abroad. You can easily find Indian restaurants in major cities. But, they are usually expensive and may not even taste close to what you find in every nukkad of your home town in India. Forcefully, It may take you some time to get used to what the foreigners eat. But, now there is no need to worry at all.
