After a long work that lasted months and after facing multiple issues that had nothing to do with food, but rather with innovative packaging, microgravity, nutritional values and food preservation in extreme environments, we managed to accomplish the impossible: to bring Italian cuisine among the stars! Today it is almost normal to see astronauts consuming meals more and more similar to what we eat on Earth, a great part of this innovation was possible thanks to our pioneering commitment in this field. The study of the specific needs of astronauts in microgravity environment allowed us to expand our horizons towards new goals. Thanks to the many collaborations in this field, we have created a line of ready-made dishes to be quickly prepared and consumed easily and efficiently. The Outfood line includes breakfasts and complete meals for any palate even for vegans. Perfect for sports enthusiasts, emergency professionals and for those who simply need to be able to consume a good and nutritious meal in a few minutes without all the comforts of a real kitchen. Outfood range inlcudes many, delicious and 100% natural meals, ready to any adventure just like you.
