[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1527158, member: 4191"] I don't cook much of anything around camp other than freeze dried foods. Hot water based drinks and prepared foods. That and the ready to eat snacks, of course. Mostly because I don't like to bother with the extra weight and time associated with home-style foods. A jet boil and boiling water are comparatively fast and convenient. Another stove and cook pot, butter, ect., and cleanup..., not so simple. For me it's about convenience more than bear odor attractiveness. But if bears like bacon as humans like bacon... may not be good as far as bear troubles in camp. Take a good LED flashlight/headlamp. Nothing more nightmarish than a bear prowling/growling around your tent in the dark that cannot be seen or dispatched. I have stories of guys shooting holes out the roof if their tents, trying to scare bears away from their tents at night. Spooky stories...:eek: If it's a spring hunt, the nights will be pretty short, compared to a fall hunt. [/QUOTE]
