- The "numbers" in the ingredients list on Real Meals labels replace the chemical or common name of particular food additives. They don't actually add these things themselves. They come with some of the ingredients used, for example, coconut cream, curry paste, ice cream etc. These are used in most products to enhance the colour, flavour, texture or prevent food from spoiling and are not a new thing, as additives have been used for centuries. The numbers come from a standardised list created in the 1960s in Europe (so also known as 'E-numbers').
- Real Meals was created in 2012 by Nathan Fa'avae: six times Adventure Racing World Champion. Made from the finest natural ingredients so they taste just like home. Equally, they ensure you are energised for tramping, hunting, biking, mountaineering, or competing in the world's toughest adventure races.

| Technologies | Real Meals freeze dry their food. "Freeze drying, also known as lyophilisation or cryodesiccation, is a low temperature dehydration process that involves freezing the product, lowering pressure, then removing the ice by sublimation. Because of the low temperature used in the freeze-drying processing, the quality of the rehydrated product is excellent, and the original shape of the product is maintained. This is in contrast to dehydration by most conventional methods that evaporate water using heat." 99% of moisture is removed and 97% of nutrition is retained during the process. Real Meals cook their meals and then freeze dry them, when it is rehydrated it will taste the same and look the same as before it went into the freeze-dryer. Freeze-dried foods rehydrate faster and retain their original shape, texture, and colour as well as making the food much lighter and offer a longer shelf life. Chef-made in New Zealand with the highest quality ingredients. |
