Rice cakes? I find them indistinguishable, in both flavour and texture, from those biodegradable plates you can get made from potato starch. (Yes, you can eat them, and yes, I have actually tried it.)

Boursin doesn't cope well in your rucksack.

So Don't keep it in there long or eat it squashed..

Homemade Jerky

Salami/Chorizo (my first batch of homemade is drying in the loft at the moment)

Homemade cheesy 'hardtack'

Smoked Cheese

Dried Apricots

Homemade chocolate marzipans (only white marzpan and very thick, very plain choc)

Kool-Aid powder (lemon, lime or orange) add to water for a drink or sprinkle dried fruit for more of a kick! you can also make a sort of sweat and sour sauce by adding TommyK and sugar to taste.

Malt loaf is a favourite of mine / tube of primula and oatcakes or biscuits of choice and squeeze primula over in large quantities, babybells as alternative to primula, small bread roll or fruit buns alternative to oatcakes / hard boiled eggs / eccles cakes / peperami / dates / jelly babies.

How long will boiled eggs last out and about?,
they are after all cooked and still in the shell but not being in a fridge, would they last a week and be safe to eat?

Fresh eggs will last ages.
