Tucson, Arizona... A box... no. But I'm minimalis/stealth camper. I carry only the bare essentials. I have a Reflectix pouch I made some years back that works on the same principal. Cooking a dehydrated meal in it's pouch, add boiling water, slip it into the Reflectix pouch, close it up and 20 minutes later done. Things like rice, beans, pasta just take a little longer.
