Good luck!  How do you keep your peanut butter crackers from getting all smooshed up?  Love those things,always have them in daypack while hunting . I don't bring them backpacking because they turn into mushy crumbs.

they get a little broken but not totally smashed usually. even so, ill eat them every time. one of the few foods i pack i can say that about. i pack all my food in quart zip locks (daily) and then load that kifaru mega pull out. its kind of the right shape to not get smashed i think. last year i was able to pack a bag of ruffles in without them getting crushed, but that was august weekend hunt and i didn't have a ton of gear.

The stax are always a good choice....they fit very conveniently into most spotting scop pockets 

Kitkats & Twix are awesome on colder hunts....but i hate when they get melted....no high end fancy super bars or gels ??

Those stinger products sure can give a guy a boost

For a second I thought that was a capri sun up in the right hand corner   I've been hanging around my kids too much

Only 2 Snickers and no whiskey, must be a short trip.

I assume each column is a day's worth of food?

I need to try those mac and cheese cups on my next outing. Looks good.

Why muffs over plugs?

I went to the energy shots for awhile from coffee.  It was always perfect timing for when I would just arrive at my ambush spots ... if you know what I mean.  Ended the season with trying to not take anything in the morning.  Just never really felt like I was getting a boost at all ... seemed more mental than anything.  Good hydration usually makes me feel 100x better than any coffee or energy drink.  I did a few years of overnight shifts during and after college.  Started drinking coffee at the first break, and 3rd break and always just felt tired and *censored*ty.  Went to drinking water or nothing and there was a huge difference.

Wow, you must be conditioned for ultra low calories. One column might get me to lunch. Awesome set up other than the food.

  That's what I'm sayin, the whole pic may get me through the day I have a high metabolism
