Why do people buy all these sugary candy power bars instead of eating GORP like the old days?
>>
Trail mix?
>>
>>764232
For me, it's easier to carry and eat. I can stash the bars in any one of a dozen places & eat it with one hand as opposed to having a large bag of loose pieces that can spill, etc.
>>
just turn your GORP into a bar by mixing it with some peanut butter and honey and rolling it out and wrapping it in parchment paper
>>
>>764380
If you're going to do that, you are better off finding a recipe and actually baking the fuckers. Nothing worse than needing a utensil to eat your "bar" or having to waste water cleaning your hands afterwards.

Thats what asked myself. But then i didn't know what GORP means.

Eventually i remembered that it means 'good old raisins and peanuts'.

But then i remembered that i don't like raisins and replaced them with dried figs. So, why is nobody mentioning GOFP more?
>>
>>765248

Because you'd spit out all your GOFP trying to say GOFP.

The Hudson Bay Company would drop your ass faster than a bag of whore cooch clippings passed as beaver furs. How the fuck is a man supposed to make rubaboo with fucking raisins in it? Take that shit to the faggot ass Northwests.

That one with the chocolate chunks looks good.

I'm a big fan of pic related when I'm running around in the hot sun all day and can't eat a real meal. Fuck paying $3 for them though, I only eat them if I get em for free.

Also a good midnight snack. The fill me up so I might eat one of these instead of a whole pack of Oreos.

Nature Valley has 190 calorie bars with 10 grams of protein.
Literally put 40 of them in my pack(they all fit into one pocket).

God bless nature valley. Probably 10 times the space conservation as those camp meals you add water too for the same amount of energy.

That's like asking why people drink soda. Or why mothers spend their WIC money on processed juice, doritos, and ice cream. People are really fucking stupid. It's depressing.

>People are really fucking stupid. It's depressing.
It's a a forum mostly filled with teens and YAs who have differing skills and mental development levels. You have to expect things that seem on the face of stupid and childish to occur. Walk on if it winds you up, answer sensibly and hope to teach if it interests you. Being childish in return just ensures the issue will continue.

I have started eating these lately and I enjoy them a lot. The almond, caramel and sea salt one is among my faves, along with the Peanut butter and chocolate one (of course) which has more protein than the others.

Less protein than a snicker bar
