Variety is important when making your food
choices. Granola is a popular backpacking food because it has a
high calorie to weight ratio, however it is not always fun to eat
day after day for a week. There are many non-cereal breakfast
options, such as a slice of pumpernickel bread (2.0oz) with two
slices of cheddar cheese (2.0oz) and ½ beef stick (0.5oz) for 400
calories.
