Howdy! Figured I would just put this here quick to start contributing. I’m hoping this place can get as popping as r/ultralight.

Anywho, I have the vast majority of my menu planned out but have a couple of holes to fill in. My partner and I are planning to do it in 8 days but will see if we can actually get it done in 7 (or take a day for just lounging in the middle of nowhere and use the full 8 days). It’s going to be a bit of food to carry but I’m trying to focus on keeping calories per ounce above 130 averaged over the day. I used to through in a complete cookie, but stopped because of how much gas they gave me. It was actually pretty uncomfortable.

I am wondering if anyone here has tried the green belly meals-2-go and if so how are they? Or if taking an extra Snickers bar and calling it good would make more sense. Thanks in advance!

    Hello and welcome! I’m attempting the UHT this year too 😀 I haven’t tried any of the green belly stuff but I do personally have a soft spot for snickers bars, they check all the boxes for me. You mention r/ultralight, can I ask what brought you here?

      I came on over here when my Reddit Is Fun app stopped working and finding it super worth it. And yeah Snickers bars do really hit all the boxes. When are you trying to do the UHT?

        Ah ok, it was Apollo for me and I agree, the Lemmy ecosystem is very usable and has grown appreciably even in the last week. RIF was for Android, right? Which app are you using now?

        I’m going the first week of September; would’ve done the last week of August but the Uintas got an above average amount of snow last season so I’m delaying a week to give it as much time to dry out as possible.
