Whatever I take in the ice chest that morning if I plan on hunting all day. Dry sausage, crackers, cheese, jerky.....it is just to get me by if I plan on hunting all day. Did this a lot when hunting mule deer. Ate a good breakfast and then a good supper on those days.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I pack a jet boil when I go out on most hunts.
In my pack I carry several snacks, cliff bars, snickers, gummy bears, jerky/sausage and either some ramen or a mountain house, along with a sandwich.
Morning I’ll eat either a jerky or a cliff bar. Mid morning I’ll usually have the ramen, if no ramen I’ll eat the sandwich. Lunch I’ll eat the mountain house or the sandwich. Then mid afternoon some jerky or a snickers and that will last me until dinner.
I tend to eat alot during hunts, but if I’m out all day I’m typically fairly active.
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

I rarely eat more than twice a day, often times just once. If I eat a decent breakfast there is about zero chance I will be hungry until dinner time in the evening. I can’t remember ever taking anything to eat while hunting. Even when I go work at the ranch all day I will stop and get breakfast tacos on the way there and then not eat anything until I am back home in the evening.

Apple and a protein bar when I'm backcountry hunting. I don't like jerky in the field because it makes me thirsty.

Protein bars, nuts, peanut butter, Bobo bars and normally a breakfast. In blind, mule or backpack it’s all about the same. I put gallon zip lock bags together at the beginning of the year. I have two totes. Day hunt and overnight. Overnight adds a dinner Go to’s are: Biscuits and Gravy, peaches and oats, breakfast skillet ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/01/full-5357-377968-dee42cd7_551d_4c36_b872_e57d4137b791.jpeg)

Good grief...How do you guys stay "not-fat" eating all the time?? I NEVER take snacks to the blind (or in the boat) and I guarantee I got several biscuits on most of yall.

Peanuts Crackers cheese Dried sausage is typically what I'd have in my backpack to snack on
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

I keep a tote of food in the truck. It has everything listed above plus those jars of yellow fin tuna steaks in herbed EOO. The several of us have different preferences and we probably eat more when hunting than when not.
I put Snickers, granola fruit/nut bars, jerky and maybe an apple in my pack. I used to also take caffeinated jelly beans as an afternoon coffee substitute to avoid a headache. Sports beans?

That's not a problem I usually have a plastic w mart sack in my pocket to pick up trash and what not that thoughtless trespassing bass turds throw down- food wrappers, beer cans, spent hulls, cigarette butts, etc. Good stuff to show the warden

Apples are good because you can just throw the cores and leftover apples out from your stand as bait and not have to carry them back out.
