Frequently asked questions
Are ANTARTA meals 100% natural?
Yes! We don't use any preservatives, colorants and taste boosters. Our meals are 100% natural, a fact that makes them absolutely healthy.
What's the difference between freeze-dried food and regular dehydrated food?
The difference is enormous. Dehydrated food uses high temperatures (60-80°C), which destroys most vitamins and enzymes. Freeze-drying operates at -40°C to -50°C in a vacuum, preserving nearly all the nutritional value. More importantly, dehydrated food often spoils when exposed to moisture and has a shelf life of 6-12 months. Our freeze-dried meals last a minimum of 3 years with intact, sealed packaging.
WHY ARE ANTARTA MEALS SO LIGHT?
Freeze-drying technology removes nearly all moisture through a sublimation process, in which water transitions directly from solid to gas at extremely low temperatures. This stops all biological and chemical processes that would break down the food. The combination of vacuum sealing and multi-layer aluminum packaging creates impenetrable protection against oxygen, moisture, light, and microorganisms. The result is food that's ultralight and yet very delicious.
Do I need special equipment for preparation?
No, you don't need any special equipment! This is one of the biggest conveniences of our products. The packaging itself is designed to serve as both a preparation and eating container. All you need is water and a spoon. This makes our freeze-dried breakfasts perfect for minimalist hikes, where any additional equipment is unnecessary weight.
Can the food be consumed directly without adding water?
Technically, yes, freeze-dried food is completely safe to consume in its freeze-dry state. Astronauts sometimes consume freeze-dried fruits and vegetables directly as snacks. However, main meals are designed for rehydration, as in their dry state, they have a very concentrated flavor and hard, brittle texture. For optimal nutritional absorption and taste quality, we always recommend adding water.
Are ANTARTA meals suitable for emergency supplies and long-term storage?
Absolutely. Our freeze-dried meals are designed specifically for such scenarios. With a minimum guaranteed shelf life of 3 years, they're ideal for emergency kits, shelters, and long-term supplies. They require no refrigeration, special conditions, or stock rotation. During natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, or winter storms, freeze-dried ready meals remain the only reliable source of nutrition, without the need for cooking and special equipment.
Freeze-dried by sublimation
Our freeze-dried space food is made through freeze-drying which works on a physical principle called sublimation, in which a substance passes directly from a solid to a gaseous state without going through the liquid phase. The result is the lightest food ever produced, offering high energy value while preserving its essential nutritional properties and beneficial ingredients.
