Nuts & seeds!!!

I like: raw shelled pecans, dry roasted almonds, shelled, roasted, unsalted, sunflower seeds (these are inexpensive P^ , shelled peanuts, cashews.

The Nuts idea has worked very well for me for years and years. They have a whole lot of food value is a small, non-refrigerated, non-breakable packages. You can re-stock just about any store anywhere, slip opened packages into zip-lock baggies.

AND, YES, by all means add Chocolate chips (if you have any left over that is) :rolleyes:

I like to add a little more to the nuts and seeds and make trail mix. My favorite mix is almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds (shelled), dried pineapple, craisins, and m&m's or similar.

I also like fruit like apples, bananas (if you can keep them from getting squished),

While I used to go to the 'Bulk Foods' type stores/aisles to make my own, I now by mine from Walmart, as it's got just about everything I used to make my own with. IIRC, it's called Mountain Trail Mix and is under their "Great Value' house brand and goes for $4.99 for a good sized, resealable bag. P^

Another favorite is my home made Cajun beef jerky.

I'm with Ken on this one. I've usually got two bags of the Wally World trail mix around. One at home and one in my desk at work. It's pretty good stuff.


And for a little treet when I can find it is some Landjäger.

What you guys said and banana's as they dont have to be kept cold and they hold a lot in a little package

Landjäger: "hunter's sausage". It is smoked, so it does not need refrigeration. (yes, i had to look it up, he sez, as he hangs his head in shame)

Great idea P^P^

Trail mixes and gorps dont work for my tastes, usually. Maybe wally-world stuff would be more to my liking, but i think i'll be sticking with dry raw nuts from Trader Joe's.

a cross between nuts and jerky...both high in protein and no need for refrigeration....

Trail mix sure is the easiest & very satisfying at the same time.

Now you made me hungry. There's a butcher shop in Thorp that has the best you've ever tasted.

I missed out on picking some up last weekend when I was in St. Louis. There is a butchers shop there that makes up some tasty stuff. But I'm up to trying diffrent ones.

I carry Clif bars or fig newtons. Sometimes I get a little psychoglycemic and they give me the boost I need without making me thirsty.
