Like most hikers, I’m always scanning the grocery store shelves for new, lightweight trail foods. Came across these in Walmart. They come in several flavors. I bought a box of “Strawberry Shortcake”. Took em home and tried one in the microwave…..it will be added to my trail diet. I’ve not experimented with them yet but I suspect they would be fine with some boiling water or even cold water. One pouch of “Strawberry Shortcake” contains 300 calories….70 from fat and 51 grams of carbohydratesOct 12, 2017 at 3:01 pm #3496297Ouch. You couldn’t pay me to eat such a thing. Six grams of saturated fat, the first ingredient is sugar (31g), the second is wheat flour.

Something to share with my special lady friend.
