>>1016946After eating enough of these, I got totally burnt out on Clif bars. I can barely eat them anymore without gagging unless I can wash them down with water.
>>1016948This is equally stupid as the OP. At least he can sort of mix things up with the different flavor bars. Taking two ingredients like this will just make you get sick of those foods when that's all you can taste and your body wants actual nutrition. Now if you were just supplementing real meals with candy and adding peanut butter to other foods, that would be a plan I could get behind. Who the fuck eats peanut butter right out of the jar? Are you still in high school?
>>1016950>>1016968Stupid comment. Backpacking is a high calorie consumption activity, and your body reacts differently to hunger and thirst at high elevations. Candies are commonly recommended to supplement a base diet of proteins and carbohydrates because they both provide instant energy and also can make you hungrier (a good thing after a long day of hiking at elevation).
>>1016958Snickers are good for instant energy, but I've found that they really aren't designed as good outdoors food. For one, they have a lot of chocolate in them, which melts and gets everywhere - not great when you're in bear country. For two, when it does get cold in the night and they freeze, they are harder to eat than other bar foods. Clif bars taste horrible to me, but I do acknowledge that they are DESIGNED in many ways to be good outdoors food.
>>1016967>>1017007These guys get it.
>>1016971>Look at a thru hiker 2000 miles into the trail, bet your ass he doesn't have a single cliff bar in that pack, but hundreds of snickers.This is completely inaccurate and ridiculous. There's nothing wrong with Clif bars. The insane thing that people are commenting on is the fact that the OP seems to ONLY be eating Clif bars.
>>1016973>>1017014Kys.
>>1016975Not him, but you can find Clif bars for about $1 per bar at most grocery stores or Trader Joes.
