keeping snickers from melting

"If i put it in my sleeping bag will it stay cool from the insulation?"

Yes.

freeze it before your trip.

Buy a PayDay instead. Virtually the same ingredients and far less issue with melting.

Get out of here with that! Might have similar ingriedients but it is NOT the SAME! For shame….

Freezing is a good idea that will atleast mean I can keep them cool for a day. especially if I use the sleeping bag trick.

If you use an insulated cosy for dehydrated meals keep the frozen snickers in it.

Josh, you can't. That is why I only eat them for breakfast. If they get soft during the day, it will harden back up overnight ; ).

But if you must….. Keep them with a lot of other food, together not alone in a back pocket where they will heat up quickly. I rarely have a problem keeping chocolate from melting though I carry mounds, Reese and hershey special dark.

Dark chocolate melts at a higher temp. Mounds, yummy!

If you're eating your candy bar for desert e.g., at lunch or dinner and you're near a water source usually the water is cold enough (at least in the CA Sierras) that you can put the bar into the water to get it cold enough to be solid. I also try to pack chocolate bars deep in my pack inside my down bag or other insulation (in a plastic bag of course)to keep them from melting. Doesn't always work in really warm weather. I don't think "tropical" high melting chocolate tastes good enough to bother with.

Carry candy bars in a cozy – it works, even unfrozen.

Also, even if it melts, it is still edible. Just find a cold stream or lake, submerge sealed bars and let chill. They firm up rather fast.

Good points about cozy and placing in streams.

If you use one of those new coolers that simpleoutdoors.com is selling you can keep a handful of them from melting! :-)

Another option is to pre-melt them at home before you go. Place bars on a cookie sheet in an oven at a low (~150F) temperature for about 5 minutes. When they are slightly melted roll them in a mixture of ground psyllium husks along with some cinnamon. You have to re-package them but this method works pretty good and increases the fiber content (adds 3-6 grams per bar). Psyllium is mostly tasteless but if desired, you could also use oatmeal, unsweetened coconut, etc.
