HAZ is hard to navigate in. It seems like it would be very useful but I've only been there a couple times. It's friendly and comfortable right here.

I'm bringing this thread back up because I am in the midst of planning for my first extended backpacking/swimming trip and want to go as light as possible but I like my food!
(no tuna/fish for me)

I'm looking for more lunch ideas. Anything else to add to this thread?

You can get chicken packets from the same companies that make the tuna packets.

Safeway does, in the same area as the Tuna packets.

Lunch is difficult, I've got breakfast and dinner down (prepacked oatmeal/rasins brown sugar; Lipton noodle sides w/3 oz packs of meat). For lunches I've used jerky, cheeze and salami, tortillas, english muffins, bagels, jelly in squeeze tubes. Last few trips I add chex mix, snack cracker cheeze or peanut butter packets. I usually loose my appetite on a trip, so am not "hungry" at lunch so don't need much-just some salt and a little something for energy.

I agree, I think I'm good with breakfast and dinners.

Which type of cheese lasts the longest? I remember reading an article about cheese but can't remember now. Have you found one brand of tortillas to be more conducive for backpacking?

I can eat a full meal, be stuffed and within minutes of strapping on my backpack I'm starving again....a little eating machine. It happens in the classroom, too so I'm thinking it's just me. The teachers joke that I need a feed bucket strapped around my neck so I can have my hands free for cutting, building and so on.....LOL....I'm a grazer, I guess.

I like the mini wax coated Baby Bells. They come in a few varieties and seem to hold up well.

oh YEAH....I love those, great idea! I took those when we did tanner, very yummy and hit the spot.

it's a round ball of cheese coated in wax that you peel off.....and the laughing cow cheese is so great, too.

I thought I read stats on which cheese holds up for the most days.
