Lets have your best offers. Not just a list of ‘ingredients’, must be packable and able to be eaten on the hoof. So far, my list includes good old flapjack (delia’s method with lots of butter), peanut brittle, cheddar cheese bagels and pork pies.

Doreen.

Doreen.

Extremely dense 🙂

Tortilla wraps with peanut butter and jam, rolled up swiss-roll stylee

Lard wraps. Packable, calorie dense.

A Stonner

Eccles cakes
Sausage rolls

If you want calorie dense, you need fat (I assume this is for the Pennine Way thing?)

You should never take a Stonner on a bike.

Not in those shorts.

Lardy cake

I may be peanutted out for them in waps as well. Mac – Sounds good, but not sure I can make that work. I know the polar guys eat lard / butter, but not sure I can stomach it.

Sausage rolls may be easier to eat than pies – good call.
Eccles cakes have that funny fruit stuff in them. If I could just get the pastry ?

Salami/Chorizo type stuff.

Not in those shorts.

Tuck one down the back – jobs a good’un.

Malt loaf, with butter. Squash it and it takes up less space but still tastes exactly the same/has the same texture. Some sort of black magic trickery that is.

Pemmican

Stollen is about now Christmas is coming, blow the dust off a bit and should be calorific enough.

Also banana chips are meant to be horrifically bad for you. Mmmm banana chips.

I meant Soreen. Bloody autocorrect.

Apologies to any Doreens out there.

Cheese hasn’t been mentioned?

soreen mature cheese and jam. fantastic riding food.

but I now take olives and chorizo.

Mini pork pies. Magic for big days out in the hills. You know that already though…

I made some spanish style croquettes, with chorizo. easy to make bite sized and very nommable.

Lardy cake.

Uncooked(!) smoked streaky bacon. As used by Sir Ranulph in the Antarctic.

Tortillas stuffed with rice, raisins, nuts, ham, bacon cheese etc.
Pork Pies
Doreen Banana Loaf

Some good ideas here guys. I’m putting pemmican in the same box as the blocks of butter / lard.

Sticky rice and tuna balls, with Worcester Sauce. I make these in freezer bags and can drink the contents. Can’t chew food when riding hard.

stella artois

Chocolate of the cadburys milk variety not the artisan 70% coca bean from an organic fair trade plantation with chilli infusion

Tregroes chocolate toffee waffles

Haha – the legendary stonner kebab rears it’s meaty head 😆

Halva.

Sweet is easy, for calorie dense savoury foods I can’t see anything better than cheese and oat cakes.

APF

A bottle of this is 2000 calories, 67% though so the negative effects may outweigh the benefits 😆

Butter.

More serious suggestion – pork scratchings. Basically 50% protein, 50% fat. 100% salt. 😉

That’s 320 cals of “tartiflette in a tube” right there.

Stick to winter though, it’s meant to be refrigerated.

Aldi are selling macaroni cheese croquettes, I’ve managed to walk past them so far, but I feel my willpower weakening….

I think you could pack decant that primula into a camel pack, a bit of adjustment of the straps and you should be able to squeeze it under your armpit like bagpipes

😀

Olive oil in a waterbottle.

calories per gram, oils are top.

If you don’t fancy drinking it neat, which would be quite understandable, a little bottle of it to slosh on whatever else your eating is one way of doing it.

If you don’t fancy drinking it neat

I prefer it on the rocks
