I met a guy on my last hike that was my age (62) and we chatted for a few minutes about food. He told me it made all the difference in the world when he got the advise how to eat on the trail from a guy he had met on the trail. This guy told him to take hot dog buns, slather it with peanut butter and jelly and make a bag full at each resupply. Then he said without fail to eat one every two hours. I have to make myself eat as I do not want to stop, thus have to battle the energy issue. How do you guys handle this (maybe it is an age issue?).
