Jokkmokk - yes, pizza place is good, 2 supermarkets will stock all you'll need - well, they did for me! Can highly recommend the O'Boy hot chocolate powder (just add water) and the Polarbrot bread range. Can't remember the exact polarbrot item, but one of them was superb after 10 seconds each side on a hot stovetop (suppose you could use a frypan instead, but the stovetop seemed much easier!)

As nice as some of the Polarbrod looks I think I'll be taking pita bread and wraps, may buy extra when there though

I keep shopping on the Swedish Coop shop, some prices are a bit tasty whilst others look ok, I'm thinking to take
BREAKFAST
Lard to reheat and or cook bacon
Cooked pre packed bacon
Olive oil, goes on and with everything
Egg crystals
Wraps
Oats
Hot chocolate
LUNCH
Cheese
Chorizo
Sardines
Pita breads
DINNERS
Should be a mixture of communal and a bit of self catering
2x Communal dinners separate x 5 people, 10 days worth of evening meals, 4 days self cater ? (roughly)
Self catering TBC
Also, Coffee, sugar, sweets, chocolate drops ( for adding to bits ) butter in a tin ? nuts, trail bars
A basic list and by no means final, I'll be topping this up in Sweden, your thoughts please.

Good so far mate. Same sort of thing as me really. Get your butter and bacon out there dude it will cost less than flying it over i would have thought.

Yeah, fresh bacon I may get out there but I'll take some pre cooked as well, it'll all get eaten

keep it mainly veg based and you can keep adding to it ,,,fry some meat to add to it separate from the stew
Packet soups light but work as the base as as needed ,,cant beat it last thing at night in a group tent

wraps dont work well in the cold ,
I was thinking have a stew on as a group at all times , as you will be melting snow all the time as it is
It your cooking on a flat surface you can get nan bread mix , its fantastic ,,,have not seen it for a bit though.

It's only the evening meal that's going to be a group meal, the wraps and pita bread I was going to warm on the stove, I'll have a look at naan bread mix, thanks Cliff.

Local cuisine and tastes differs off course, but I'd go for hot meals all over....also, I'd go for freeze dried like Real turmat or Bla band - I am lazy, it is temp independent and it is easy to calculate the amount of energy....well various kinds of lazy, really...
Sardines....well....nah...

WOW, those Real Turmat are pricey, £10 up over for a meal, and not a 'proper' one at that
Indeed! I have built a dehumidifyer to be able to get a more wallet-friendly meal....but my design nees some remodelling and I am having a hard time to find time for it...
I have thought about dehydrating for some time, to be honest, I don't think my pack load will be that heavy, tent, stove and sleeping comes in at under 15kg, I'll have two large kit bags and hand luggage, I don't think space will be an issue ?
Dont forget nice clean clothes for around the town at the end. Pair of boots and jeans for on the pull....😂😂😂😂😂

I was going for the rough look
uppy_dogFrom what I can see at the moment, and it's patchy (anyone got any info) they seem to be good on that.
