Smaller volume, doesn't go bad as fast, saltier. And for those of us who like different textures in our foods.... 😉
Thank you for your thoughtful responses, BTW. Buen Camino.
Yeah, but I don’t think these count, they’re Asian noodles 😉.
Anyway, you’ll be hidden away in your room 😂.
Incidentally, another reason for these is they’re light, and can be eaten uncooked if necessary. I quite like the crunchiness actually...
Unlike many of my Italian compatriots, after several decades abroad I learned to eat everything. But there is a law in Italy that if you are seen eating reheated noodles you automatically lose your citizenship.... 😆

Something that many people elsewhere suggest is Parmigiano Reggiano: high in protein and calories, much more than mozzarella and ANY other cheese. And it lasts forever.

I am diabetic and find a morning meal with hard boiled eggs, baby Bell Cheese, maybe yogurt, can keep me going longer that carbs. Noon, another Cheese and some walnuts. Maybe one electrolyte drink or better yet a banana in the evening or after I...
When faced with no 'top up' spots along the way, I tend to rely on..........
1 litre of water per 10 kms. (will vary by person and weather of course)
500 ml of that will be Aquarius (sugar free)
For food, I did quite a bit of research on that...
