[pct-l] Thu-hikers and Baby Food

[Montedodge@aol.com]

A good option at breakfast for the thu-hiker is gerber baby food flakes. The 
stuff taste great, has lots of minerals and is light weight. Oatmeal with 
banana for mixed fruit taste best. Just add some milkman and mix to your 
preferred thickness. One box of flakes fits nicely in the 1 quart ziplock 
bag. You can also buy powdered infameal baby formula to drink instead of 
milkman for some more vitamins in your diet. People are grossed out at 
looking at your food, but if they try some, they are very surprised how good 
it is. A box last me three mournings and no heating of water is needed. Great 
for ultra lights also. ( which I am not )
