A retort pouch or retortable pouch is a type of food packaging made from a laminate of flexible plastic and metal foils. It allows the sterile packaging of a wide variety of food and drink handled by aseptic processing, and is used as an alternative to traditional industrial canning methods. Retort pouches are used in field rations, space food,[1] fish products,[2] camping food, instant noodles, and brands such as Capri-Sun and Tasty Bite.
Some varieties have a bottom gusset and are known as stand-up pouches.
