Reference the MRE.  Carry a microwave, hot sauce, bbq sauce, lots of water,
and a few of them are edible.  DAMGER.  These meals are designed around the
caloric intake of a 180 lb combat troop carrying a load and moving all day.
Extremely high in carbs and fat.  Low in protein.  The normal civilian can
gain weight on just two per day.  The sedantary can gain weight probably on
just one.

Planned insanity is best.
Remember that sanity is optional.
