survival food or camping food?

The reason I say about a differentiation between camping food and survival food, is because when going a few miles off the beaten path (or away from the car park) you can carry more gear, e.g. camping, as opposed to travelling 4-5 times that distance, or more, when bugging out.

So, for a more enjoyable experience, camping with high quality delicious food will be more fun than bugging out with lighter dehydrated foods.

I'm all for carrying a light pack, however, when camping, I'll take a bit more weight because of the added extra luxury the croissants and jam will bring. Instead of surviving off beef jerky (as much as I love it....but not the price of it) I get to step up and wake up, to a lovely French themed breakfast...no not frogs legs haha.

The thing is, camping, can be a small walk of a few miles, which is easy enough, and when carry a small pack, like I do, it's nice to add extra weight as luxury food. However, when bugging out, light and calorie dense is the requirement.

agreed ,croissants and peanut butter is the bomb ,as for beef jerky I do make my own but its not them same as wildwest jerky mate that is very nice
