[CDT-L] Dehydrated Food



Does anyone out there have any experience with dehydrated food.  Not your Richmoor/alpineaire/mountain house/backpackers pantry type of food but real dehydrated fruits & vegies.  Interested in learning about your expierence with this type food (supplemented with beef jerky/summer sausage/etc.).       
 
Does the weight drop from using say a Lipton type dinner?  How easy are they to re-hydrate?  How much extra water will be needed?  How much is a "typical" serving size?  How many Calories per "servings"?  Cooking Time???  But most important were you satisified with those meals!!!!
 
Would appricate your response!
