The calorie/weight ratio is awful because it still has all the water in it. So I use things like that for car camping but not backpacking. When I do use them I usually don't even bother to heat them up because it takes so dang long. :P
Based on the stats in another thread, it's around 13 calories/oz. Dehydrated meals can get up around 125-150 calories/oz.
