    My wife came home from the grocery store this past Saturday with a box. She said, "Hay I got something for you" and tossed me a box of Grape Nuts Trail Mix Crunch. Actually tastes pretty good.

    We've always had our own "cerel." It's called oatmeal.

    Bear Naked also has two new trail mixes for us. One for the East Coast and one for the West Coast...

    Default Really is pretty good

    Really is pretty good - it powered me all the way to Mt. K last year.

    I portioned it in ziplocks, added powdered milk & often added dried fruit - then just added water in the morning - little fuss, good energy & did not crush like flake cereals.

    Try NICO/Pico(?) powdered milk in a yellow can -found in hispanic food sections - powdered whole milk, more calories & fat than Carnation. Taste better too.

    This is one of the few foods I ate all the way up the trail and still choose to eat now - that and malt beverages.

    I think the name you are struggling for is Nido. It'a a Nestle product.
