Re: Ultralight backpacking...good foods to take?

You can skip all the other energy bars, and go exclusively with Larabars, as they are the most natural, thus easiest to absorb, energy bar out there. They are also the densest; unwrap them, and pack them together like bricks, to saran-wrap the whole bundle together. Every flavor is the best, if that's even possible--and it is!--and that's because I know because I've eaten them all.
