>>2038689The Zippo hand warmer is fucking fantastic, it lets me take my sleeping bag down another 10 or so degrees what it's rated for, and it lasts longer than a chemical hand warmer.
I am curious about the Zippo electrical hand warmer/power bank though; I'd get it as a power bank first, and an emergency source of heat in a life-or-death situation second.
>>2038725What are you talking about? They're perfectly easy to ignite. And why would you have it out in the wind? It's designed to sit in a cloth pouch inside of a pocket or in your sleeping bag, you're not going to have it exposed to the elements outdoors.
>>2038769Dinty Moore beef stew. Wolf brand chili (no beans; as any Texan will tell you, adding beans make it cease to be chili). Sweet Sue chicken and dumplings. Mountain House dinners. Biscuits cooked over a fire with Red Feather butter. Bacon. Eggs. Coffee. Hot chocolate. S'mores. Especially s'mores made with Scho-Ka-Kola instead of regular chocolate. Fish cock. SPAM. MRE's. The sky's the limit. Hell, make some mac and cheese or ramen. As long as you have a proper mess kit, dutch oven, or cast iron skillet, you can cook just about anything.
>>2038810UCC canned coffee is nice, if you don't feel like instant or pour-over. Never underestimate the power of boilloun for soup; around here, you can get beef, chicken, chicken and tomato, mushroom, shrimp, onion, garlic, and cilantro boullouin, plus other shit like miso soup paste. Or Russian cosmonaut food paste in squeeze tubes. Regardless of season, there's appropriate food available.
