I was thinking that hikers need a new hiking challenge--cameling up a liter of olive oil. My calculations show that there are ~68 tablespoons in a liter and at 120cal/tbsp that's about 8100 calories:D.

I was talking to someone about this the other week-- why do the half gallon challenge with ice cream, when peanut butter has so many more calories?

Bacon grease. Pure filtered bacon grease. Camel it up, add to everything. Rice, couscous, ramen, pasta, pancakes, fake eggs,
I have never done this, but it seems logical:rolleyes:
I have about 25 gallons of cooking oil out in my garage right now. That is about 810,000 calories. That is just about enough to do a thru hike on.

Just make sure you've memorized the location of every single privy on the AT. :eek:

i think the amount of butt paper you would need to carry would override any caloric benefits...
