Brian M Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 What are your top 3 go-to climbing food items and why? Oatmeal, because it's cheap and versatile. Beef Jerky, for something to chew on. Apple, for day trips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telemarker Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Smoked salmon; Wasabi almonds; Sencha Shot or Goalazo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genepires Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 talking alpine or craggin? your choices of oatmeal and apples don't point to any particular sport. who eats oatmeal while craggin? and apples in alpine? alpine breakfast - fried bagels w oil and cheese and precooked bacon alpine during day - lots of those cheap little granola bars, cheese, snickers, more bagels w salami alpine dinner - lipton rice meals w chicken bag. more oil and cheese. mentality of alpine - fat and carbs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montypiton Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 jelly beans aka "redneck energy gels" bodybuilders weightgainer powder - a 1000 calorie serving of hot chocolate, with abundant electrolyte profile -- I've done entire weekend alpine trips on this and nothing else stovetop dressing -- just add hot water & jerky, tuna, or whatever -- cheap no-cook meal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonG Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 This is the stuff I almost never bring back out of the hills (i.e. I eat it first): Landjaeger Cheese Dark Chocolate (w/ nuts, caramel, sea salt, or whatever) Ramen noodles (don't judge) dried fruit Whiskey/Scotch of any type I always bring way too many bars, especially on long trips. Real food is where it is at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slab Mistress Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Only real foods I always eat are 95% chocolate, sugar peas, and soyjerky: pretty self explanatory chewy good, chocolate good, fiber good. Everything else is what's tolerable on this list of lightest foods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real food is where it is at. dark choc, dried fruit and nuts are a lot of things I take. The scotch I do not take but might have to take a cheeky bit next time I walk now lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
