[QUOTE="Ward Thurman, post: 2283714, member: 109209"] You guys and peanut butter. Bleck. We have used Quaker instant oatmeal, the packaged noodle dishes as they are WAY better than anything Mountain House has ever made and WAY cheaper, jerky, crackers, summer sausage, cheese in a can so it doesn't spoil in warm weather, home made trail mix w/ Chex mix, raisins, (or crasins!), M&M's, walnuts (or pecans if you have a larger budget) and of course, stuff to cook trout with. We avoid the dried eggs and the super expensive backpacker meals. The eggs are terrible and see above. We have never gone hungry on a trip although we had to cut one short as the 2 teenage boys I had along ate everything we had and a pile of trout to boot! If you're hunting, the weather will be cooler and your exertion level a lot higher. Take more of the protein items and reduce the amount of M&M's in the trail mix. With the above, we could outfit a summer trip for 2 of us, 3-4 days for less than $75. We did rely on the trout though as that was the point of the trips - high lakes with abundant rarely fished trout. [/QUOTE]
