Food Stock for Living Alone: Ready Meals, No Fridge Needed
For people who live on their own and do not have time to cook every day. Pasta, laksa and Malay dishes in pouches that sit in the cupboard until you need them.
Food stock for living alone, without the waste
Cooking for one often ends with leftovers in the fridge or fresh ingredients going bad. A food stock for living alone made of retort pouches solves both: one pouch is one meal, and unopened pouches keep for 1 to 2 years at room temperature. Keep a few packs for tiring nights, the end of the month or late-night hunger.
What is in the pack
The Starter Bundle Pack lets you pick 5 products to suit your taste. The 5 Dishes Combo goes with rice you cook yourself. A mixed bundle gives you more meals in one purchase.
Why it suits people living alone
One pouch, one meal
No leftovers and no pots to wash.
Store it in the cupboard
No fridge space needed. Good for 1 to 2 years unopened.
Ready in minutes
Eat as is, soak the pouch in hot water, or pour it into a bowl and heat it.
Easy to budget
Each pack has a clear price, so it fits neatly into a monthly food budget.
How to use your food stock
Keep your stock on one shelf so you can see how much is left. Mix ready meals with simple cooking, for example rice you cook yourself with a dish from a pouch, or an egg and some vegetables added to the pasta. When you are down to two or three packs, it is time to reorder. This helps you eat out less on tiring days.
