love that mac n cheese section. that was my favorite part from the pack & soul documentary. its also my favorite food to eat on trail.

Mac n cheese is the best. Creamy goodness

Always enjoy your videos, and I they are only improved by the cutaway VO, like the scenes from Pack & Soul. Seeing what you are talking about, while we're hearing you talk about it, always makes the viewing experience even better. Thanks for that. Have a great one everyone, Jack NYC

@carolynmarie5273 10 месяцев назад

So enjoyed this, thank you so much for your tips🙏 Doing a 3 week hike in NZ in a few weeks, have found from previous hikes some fresh fruit or veg really helps keep up my energy even though it’s not the most practical or efficient energy source. Dark chocolate and a plant based protein powder with added vitamins has been really helpful at times too. Definitely relate to chugging healthy food when you hit a town, can’t get those nutrients down quick enough😁 Stay well, cheers from NZ 🙏

@PackAndSoul 10 месяцев назад

Thanks so much for watching and the comment! NZ as in New Zealand!? That must be a dream :-) You going to document it at all??

@carolynmarie5273 10 месяцев назад

Thank you. I found Range Bars at 700 cals per bar. Greenbelly bars about 650 cals per package. Garden of Life Bars 240 cals each. Noka package smoothies 110 cals each. Wonderful Pistachios and peanut M and Ms. All great tasting and filling. Happy Trails!

String cheese!!! 100%

@seanrich7969 Год назад

Thank you for your videos! As a 2023 thru hike prospect I'm soaking up as much info as I can and you are consistently good. How often were you resupplying? I also dont really have 20lbs to lose so Im trying to figure out how much I should realistically carry.

@PackAndSoul Год назад

Thanks for this comment! Pumped for your thru! Probably averaged out to a resupply about every 3 or 4 days or so. By the end of the trail, I could barely fit the food in my bag I was eating so much lol. But there seems to be food all over trail. Weather trail angels, day hikers, random gas stations on a road, etc. wasn't ever really in a situation where I ran out of food... except when a bear took my food bag! (I hung it wrong). What date are you heading out?

@seanrich7969 Год назад

@@PackAndSoul My roommate and I are planning on leaving the first or second week of April, depending on how quickly can pack our place lol. At this point I'm just making the gear purchases I need and mentally prepping. Its feeling more and more real the closer we get. Were both still working/ grad school but I'm looking forward to that pivot in the last few weeks before we leave. Not looking forward to the cold up front but hopefully leaving later will help. Thank you for all your helpful videos man!

@PackAndSoul Год назад

@@seanrich7969 so freakin exciting! Gonna be an irreplaceable experience I started in May and it was still cold at Springer! I don’t know how people start in Feb, nuts. If you need any gear recs at all, got a ton of those! And any other questions, feel free to reach out.

Trail mix !!!

@ctrawick3 Год назад

The olive oil idea is fantastic - I have never thought of that. I will add that one into the plan for long, multi-day outings - great, great idea. Now, chugging OO?- that MUST be your Italian bio-heritage peeking through 😂😂 Really good stuff on your channel. Thanks again

@PackAndSoul Год назад

Olive oil is king! Can’t live without it. The vessel in which you carry it is really important, something secure so it doesn’t spill. Really appreciate you supporting the channel!

@mooseliver1772 Год назад

Good advice! Nutella all the way!

@PackAndSoul Год назад

100% !!!

@sandchar9640 Год назад

Healthy foods are essential for me. Maybe on a thru it is different, but I need the fresh fruits and veggies

@PackAndSoul Год назад

Definitely miss the fresh fruits and veggies on a long trail. I try to incorporate them whenever I can

@paddle_hike Год назад

I'm not thru hiking so it's different but i still try to eat KETO as much as I can on trail.... Way harder but I boost myself with fat and protein instead of sugar... It works for now but would be too heavy and expensive on a thru hike and hard to find too. Thanks for the info.

@PackAndSoul Год назад

Oh yeah, keto has to be way more sustainable health wise long term. Probably more expensive too like you said, but if you can swing the cost, you’re most likely better off. Do you feel you get enough calories with Keto? These little honey bun things filled with pure sugar have like 900 calories. All empty, all processed. But there they are. Started off the trail eating so healthy, and was just way too hungry all the time!

@paddle_hike Год назад

@@PackAndSoul well, fat gives a lot of calories very fast...PB, mct oil, olive oil, nuts etc so adding these to your mix helps a lot. I do get enough when i'm adding...if I don't, nope! but It could work if you know what you are doing and able to find the ingredients. I go high fat and protein.. :)

@creaturesandhabitsfilms2009 Год назад

Nice! You should make an infomercial, “Want to lose weight and eat everything you ever wanted? Go hike the Appalachian trail!”

@PackAndSoul Год назад

Great idea, Know a producer?

@JenM.5387 Год назад

Fritos have very high calorie/ oz, and go well with bean dishes. They're also sturdier than potato chips.

@PackAndSoul Год назад

GREAT idea. Love Fritos too, prob my favorite.

@missourimongoose8858 5 дней назад

Yall should try chicken pesto quesodilla, just tortilla with pesto, chicken packet and cheese cooked with olive oil, its the jam

@PackAndSoul 5 дней назад

Hell yeah! Sounds great. Will definitely try it out, thanks

@missourimongoose8858 5 дней назад

@@PackAndSoul another tip for favor is infusing your olive oil before you take it on the trail, just toss in some garlic, Basel, rosemary ect when the oil is at a simmer and let it go for 5 min or so then cool and strain, it makes food just that much better for 10 min or ur time

@jackmchaney764 6 месяцев назад

Did you take any vitamins or supplements while you were out there?

@PackAndSoul 6 месяцев назад

I took a multi vitamin starting about halfway thru. Maybe it helped?

@Arthur-Silva 2 месяца назад

The amount of sodium in Backpackers Pantry’s food is unreal! I’d skip it entirely, it doesn’t matter if it’s family owned, they make the most ultra processed, industrial stuff ever! 😂

@PackAndSoul 2 месяца назад

I hear ya. But in terms of what’s typically in thru-hiking food, sodium’s the least of my worries. Super hard to find a truly healthy meal that won’t break the bank over 5 months and will actually have the calorie count you need. If you’re aware of one, let me know

@FiveOClockSomewhereWalks Год назад

yes

@PackAndSoul Год назад

Thanks

@alumnimentor5664 Год назад

How many calories did you eat per day? And how much do you think you burned each day?

@PackAndSoul Год назад

Good question, I’d say probably ate like 5 thousand a day, and burned 6.

@sigmalife0570 Год назад

20 miles a day? I thought 10-12 only?

@PackAndSoul Год назад

I usually averaged around 18-22 a day. Sometimes 30s, sometimes 15s. I never really did 10-12 unless I was going into town that day

@sigmalife0570 Год назад

@PackAndSoul and how much water did you ended up consuming? You must be fast

@PackAndSoul Год назад

@@sigmalife0570 id say about 4 liters a day. Wish I could’ve gone slower to tell ya the truth! As much time out there as possible. But I started mid May, so had to get to Katahdin before the weather hit.

@3dentertainment301 5 месяцев назад

You said that you lost 20 lbs. Was it lbs of fat or muscle or...??? Did you gain it back after your thru hike?

@PackAndSoul 5 месяцев назад

Combination of both I suppose, though I tried to keep as much muscle as possible, with push-ups every night. And I gained both the muscle and especially the fat back pretty much immediately! About a month or so I was back to my normal weight
