Looking for an idea of what you guys are packing along to eat, per day, for food.

something like:

pack of oatmeal in the morning
Pro-bar for lunch
granola bar for afternoon snack
Mountain House for dinner


Go a head and give out Manufacturers/flavors if you'd like :cool:


EDIT: I should have clarified...that list is not my list...it was an example of what type of list I was wanting to see from each of you.

I'd lose a lot of weight with that menu. You're burning a lot of calories elk hunting. You have to eat. Triple what you eat for me. However, I don't sit during a hunt. That can make a difference.

1 scoop Muscle Pharm Iron Mass Vanilla
2 packets of quick oats

I'm a bit ocd over my macros but having gone through contest prep for physique show's I've got a decent understanding of how my body responds to this kind of stuff. Apologies for the long winded post!

Hope you can run on low calories because your list is probably less than 1500 total calories. :p

Breakfast: Heather's Choice buckwheat breakfast + starbucks via
Snack: Jerky, nuts, dried fruit, and/or probar
Lunch: Salami and cheese wrapped in a tortilla or butthole sandwich (partner had them last year, I was super envious)
Snack: Jerky, nuts, dried fruit and/or Probar
Dinner: Dehydrated meal -usually Alpine Aire or Heather's Choice meals
Dessert: Alpine Aire Three Berry Crumble and/or Homemade Venison Pemmican and tea

My favorite Alpine Aire meals are: Southwestern Masa and Beef, Ultimate Beef Nachos, Thai Chicken and Noodles.
The Heather's Choice Chipotle Chocolate Chili might be the single best dehydrated meal I've had.
 
You add up the calories per day on that food list(1200ish?)? I'm with Bar, not near enough for me.

This is my total list (still in development) for a hunt that includes an afternoon/evening hike in on a Friday, staying the night through the next Friday, and hike out Saturday. I make a list for the week because I like to mix it up and not eat the same thing every day.

Starbucks via, 12 packets
Sugar, 12 packets
Nature Valley Protein Chewy bar - PB & DC, qty 15
Beef jerky 9 oz
Maruchan ramen, 7 packs
MH Chicken and Rice - 1 serving, 1 pack
MH Noodles and Chicken - 2.5 Servings, 2 packs
MH Chicken Fried Rice - 2.5 Servings, 3 packs
MH Rice and Chicken - 2 Servings, 3 packs
