Underground noshings: your preference, sir?

[cap n chris]

For sustenance, what's your preferred type of snackeroo?

 

[cucc Paul]

as im the only person to vote so far noodles have a 100% vote go noodles

 

[Stupot]

Noodles are great, mmmm Mild Curry flavour

A few day's ago i sat down on a rock (funny that) and decided to eat my wheat bar and it was so dry it sucked every ounce of moisture from my mouth, i felt like drinking the cave dry.

It was a Sainsburys Wheat and Yogurt bar - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

Stu.

As I said before the hackers came along a mid trip cuppa soup can be better than sex. Wouldn't bother with a break in Goatchurch etc though...

 

[Rachel]

what happened to the chocolate???????????????????????

 

[paul]

what happened to the chocolate???????????????????????

Yep - Mars Bars!

 

[Johnny]

For long cold trips with a stove Smash is the way ahead.

Trail Mix is brilliant for sustained trips without a stove, make your own out of non soggy stuff;

Minstrels
M & M's
Nuts, cashew and pistachio
Sunflower & pumpkin seeds
Dried bannana flakes

Put them all in a 0.5l wide neck nalgene and shake.
You can swig from the nalgene making it neat and easy.
Otherwise Marsbars or Sickers (why did they ever change from Marathon?)

If you've got a stove ( or hex blocks ) and a water source, there's only serious answer - home made soup ! I've used these for many years, and my favourite is the following:-

Spicy Pepper soup

Potato flakes/pdr...............25g.
Dried milk.........................25g.
Dried parsley.....................heaped tsp.
Bouillon pdr.......................level tsp.
Ground red/green peppers..2 tsp.
Curry pdr..........................1 tsp.
Coconut milk pdr................1 tsp.
Garlic pdr...........................half tsp.
Salt & pepper......................to taste.

Add to hot water.

Dry wt....60g.
Carbo.....29g.

 

[Mr Fell]

Dried fruit is (so I have been informed) the quickest to go from solid food to energy

 

[Brendan]

A nice piece of weasel. Mmm, weasel steaks.

 

[Mr Fell]

Mmmmm leg of gamekeeper - even better !

 

[cucc Paul]

Im still with super noodles, they cant be beaten they have texture and are filling, if your on the kind of trip that requires food, if not tesco value mars bars, they stick together better than the usual and taste nicer

 

[tiggs]

SIR???????? SIR?????????????!!!!!!!!! is this a Men only poll ?!!!!!!!!

I love Pot noodles - any time, any place, anywhere!!! Gotta be nice n spicy flavour tho

Has anyone dare try the new southern fried chicken flavour pot noodle....i havent dared after having a nasty experience with bombay bad boy flavour (dont ask!)

I love Chocolate.. especially Yorkies (who are gonna get a letter about being sexist so-n-so's cos my daughters keep pointing out i am not allowed to eat em cos theyre "not for girls!" ha ha

 

[Mr Fell]

I thought weasels ate mice and other small mammels - not nuts and dried fruit.

 

[cap n chris]

Uh-oh, a weasel expert in our midst, goddammit!

Wow sounds much more appetising than a flat grit covered Mars Bar. I may give it a try!

 

[Mr Fell]

The weasle - Mustela Nivalis - sometimes lives underground !

 

[cap n chris]

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear....

 

[tubby two]

Not really going for any of those, i'm a chocolate man underground. Normally its snickers, but double deckers are pretty good too. I took a flake down corkys and when i ate it in mud hall it was only in three pieces and wasnt crushed into nothing. I was quite impressed by its crumbliest, flakiest strength!

tt.

 

[Mr Fell]

:wink: No No Nuts Rasins - Mustela Nivalis and while I`m on don`t forget to book your place at the BCRA dinner - that will be a feast as well - Somerset Chicken - so the chef tells me !
