WHO IS ALPINEAIRE FOODS?

AlpineAire Foods® is located in Grass Valley, California and was created in 1979 in order to respond to the demand for quality, nutritious, natural foods for recreational use.  Our goal is to offer quality products to adventurers, hikers, campers, adventure racers and anyone who enjoys the great outdoors.  We have selected only the best quality freeze-dried, dehydrated, instant ingredients and spices available.  Our poly-coated foil pouches are unique in the fact most products can be prepared directly in the bag by adding hot or cold water.  In 1997 we introduced our "Quick Zip" re-sealable pouch for added convenience or preparation.

We currently offer 32 entrees, 5 soups, 13 side dishes, 12 breakfast items, 14 fruits and desserts, in addition to a variety of individual items.  Variety is never a problem.  Our recipes are prepared without adding MSG, preservatives, additives, food colorings or flavorings.  A "state of the art" oxygen absorber is added to each pouch prior to sealing to insure freshness.  This is why independent taste tests reveal AlpineAire Foods is always selected for the freshest and best-tasting products in their class.

AlpineAire Foods has been the choice for every major expedition including the 35th Anniversary Assault of Mt. Everest, Kevin Foster's bike trek across the Great Wall of China, as well as being selected the official food sponsor for The Eco-Challenge held in both SE Utah in 1995 and Vancouver Canada in 1996.  You will not find a better...Naturally Good Food Anytime/Anywhere!
