bug out food

[Barneyboy]

my thought on bugging out is not to be noticed, now if you have to prep and cook this food not such a good idea for me ,i would think that starting a fire is not a good choice ,the rat packs are cooked and ready to eat and last forever

Honey, peanut butter, raisins, golden syrup, a shit load of oats and some spices to flavour.
I made some "Survival Bricks" - 4000 calories per brick. The wife was on her second before I told her the calorie count.

Last for ages (if you don't scoff them straight away), small in size and weight compared to the calories you get out - oh, and they're delicious too

Haha that is one way to end up in the missus bad books.

How do you store them to last ages? i like stuff i can forget about for long periods.

Protien is always a pain to get. It means i have to fish, trap or hunt. Very time consuming an never guaranteed.

You can get protein through dairy products, the likes of beans and nut and raisins,.. the army rat packs used to have the likes of butter and cheese in tubes, which would be idea,... I think the army stopped using them, but I wonder if they can still be purchased

Best way is to wrap them up in greaseproof paper then stick 'em in a tupperware container.

Interesting. I do have some spare tupperware laying around. Don't suppose you know the length of time they will stay good for?

Obviously, I'm not saying you're guaranteed to get diabetes. The pancreas can put up with a little bit of a beating, but (for me anyway) it's just another reason not to eat white carbs.

I add a couple of other things, and take off the raisins (sounds like fruit and veg to me haha. Too healthy, even by my standards haha). I add Chia seeds, and protein powder. I think the powder might make them last a shorter time period. Might make a few up and see how long they last for.

No worries.
I am like you Scythe a fitness freek i usually avoid the white carbs too. I cant remember where i heard it, i think it was here or a link off here but i heard that brown rice doesn't keep as long because the oils "sour it" i don't know if it is the same for flour. I need to find some alternatives =]


and chia seeds are amazing, got so much to give the body. i might look into long term storage if i can find a cheap supplier.

What about Goji berries? You can often find them along roadsides in the UK, which means they'll be easy enough to grow your own stock in your garden.

When we get our house, guess what I'm going to try and grow outside? haha
