Backpacking food Primer

Here is some information on backpack Foods. It is a Powerpoint presentation prepared by a troop in North Carolina. Things to remember as you plan out your meals you should try to consume 2000+ calories per day. A balanced diet of 50% carbs, 25% fats and 25% proteins will make you feel better through the trip. Remember each camp buddy team is responsible for their own food. Aim to limit waste by repackaging food when possible. Example Use a Noodle brick and mix rather than the Cup O Noodles.
