Bars and biscuits are indispensable on outdoor missions

On outdoor missions, food often plays only a minor role, as things usually have to move quickly and there is no opportunity to prepare a larger meal. Bars and biscuits are very useful as snacks in between.

Quick snacks in between provide energy and satisfy your hunger

Bars and biscuits should always be carried on outdoor activities. When you are out in the field because you are doing an outdoor sport or are on a mission or exercise, there is often little or no time to eat. Biscuits and bars that can be eaten while marching are a very good alternative. However, you should not take highly sugary supermarket biscuits with you. Individually wrapped bars containing muesli or cereals provide plenty of nutrients and are very suitable as a snack between meals. They can be easily transported in a backpack and usually do not contain chocolate that could melt on warm days.

Cereals should always be part of your provisions

You should never start any outdoor activity without proper food. Breaks for a more substantial snack are necessary to keep your body fit. However, in most cases these cannot be taken every few hours. ASMC offers various snacks that are nutritious and not excessively high in sugar, helping to satisfy hunger in between meals. Thanks to individual packaging, carrying the snacks is just as practical as eating them on the move, as they are handy and conveniently portioned. Biscuits and bars should be part of your provisions just like drinks in sufficient quantities, because anyone who gets hungry or thirsty on the way will no longer perform at their best.

Expert tip:

The right storage for bars and biscuits

To avoid having to “enjoy” your cookies only as crumbs, you should of course keep this in mind when packing. Soft bars can be squashed without issue, and harder ones can also break and end up only as crumbs. To prevent this, they should be stowed in separate compartments of your gear and, if necessary, additionally protected on all sides by cardboard or other light but rigid items. When you’re not on tour, the general recommendation for food naturally still applies: store it in a cool, dry place and protect it from light.

Questions: Bars and biscuits

How much energy do you need per day?

There is no universally applicable rule here, since this is a completely different type of application. The normal energy requirements of an adult differ according to sex. For women (for example, a 35‑year‑old woman), the average daily requirement for non‑physical work is put at around 2,000 kcal. For a 40‑year‑old man in a similarly non‑physical occupation, it is about 2,500 kcal. The largest share of this is the so‑called basal metabolic rate, the amount of energy every person needs regardless of activity. If strenuous physical exertion is added on top, as is common with outdoor activities (long hikes, etc.), total energy requirements or consumption increase again by a large factor of about 1.6, which would bring a man to around 4,000 kilocalories. With continuous walking under varying temperature conditions and with ascents, consumption can easily reach 4,500 to 5,000 kcal. These guideline values must of course be factored into your provisioning plan before the trip.

How much energy does a bar provide?

Using our 50 g product “Cerealien Riegel Orifo Cranberry” as an example, this bar provides around 200 kcal or 850 kJ. It consists of 2 grams of protein, 36 g of carbohydrates and 5.4 g of fat. Of course, you shouldn’t live exclusively on bars and cookies.
