Update for Sunday, Feb. 21 continued

Thought I might as well list the items I got at Giant tonight, re: first Ga. resupply. It's a good snapshot of what trail food is.

Breakfast

• Powdered milk, enough to make 8 quarts, 80 calories per prepared cup. I'll separate these into baggies and mail the extra ahead to Neel's Gap.
• Post Just Bunches cinnamon granola/cereal, 17 ounces, 2,000 calories in the box. Can eat with the milk as cereal or dry as granola.

Breakfast/midday

• Pop-tarts, 15 ounces. Frosted Wild Berry, 210 calories per poptart. A personal favorite since 1985.
• Nature Valley chewy trail mix bars, 6.7 ounces, 120 calories per bar. 

Lunch/midday

• Enchilada-size tortillas, 8 count, 16 ounces, 160 calories per tortilla. Beats bread and bagels because it doesn't mold up or crush.
• Nutella, 13 ounces, 2,000 calories in the jar. 
• Smuckers squeeze grape jelly, 20 ounces, 1,400 calories in the tube.
• Clif bars, 3 count, 2.4 ounces/bar, 250 calories per bar.
• Dried fruit [pineapple, papaya and mango], 6 ounces, 560 calories in the bag.
• Pepperoni stick, 3 ounces, calories ?.

Dinner

• Ramen noodles, 6 count, 18 ounces total, 380 calories per brick. I eat two bricks for dinner.
• Knorr sides, 2 count, 9.7 ounces total, 680 calories in one and 500 in the other.
• Tuna pouch, 4.5 ounces, 175 calories.
• Salmon pouch, 5 ounces, 120 calories
• Cans of deviled ham and chicken spread, 2 count, 4. 25 ounces each, 260 calories [chicken], 360 calories [ham].
• Block of cheese, 8 ounces, 880 calories. Cabot Horseradish, another personal favorite.

Altogether around $40. I'll be packing 158 ounces of food, or about 10 pounds. That's five days' worth, more than usual, for sure, but I've carried more before.
