Me too BB. Whiteblaze and the cafe being prime examples. Learned a lot, and laughed a lot more, lurking here through the years.Originally Posted by BirdBrain
Tried out my refined version of my breakfast drink today. This will be made on days that I don't feel like cooking.
2 packages of Carnation Instant Breakfast
8 scoops of Nido (scoop supplies with Nido)
3.4 oz package of instant butterscotch pudding
2 scoops of instant coffee (coffee scoop)
pour in water to 24oz mark on bottle
put on cover and shake like crazy
After powder and water is fully mixed you end p with a 16 oz drink with about 860 calories in it.
All I can say is bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz . I felt a little funny for about 2 hours.

No doubt. I feel funny just reading about it. Ever try coffee?
Not in the last ten minutes, but that will change soon. I plan on eating a couple of poptarts with that concoction on those days I don't feel like boiling water for oatmeal.

Okay, I have my coffee now. You were saying?

I tried Nido on a week long hike once, on a recommendation from here. I put it in the instant oatmeal that I've always just put water in, hoping to benefit from the extra calories. I had to toss it on the first day because it was so sugary/lactosely rich. Could not stomach it. Reverted to two packs instant oatmeal with water and two cups of black coffee.
That of course is the breakfast of champion hikers (that and an omelet in a bag), but there will be deluge mornings. On those days the cold calorie bomb is my plan. I have to warn anyone who may try it: It is rrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiccccccchhhhhhhhhhhhh. Ya' baby. Jolt Cola thought it had all the sugar and twice the caffeine. Wrong. This baby does.
Gotta run. Nice to see a live person on for a change. Later... how do I abbreviate your name? AF?

I love good coffee, but don't overdo the caffeine. It'a a diuretic and can lead to dehydration. I tried a mix like yours on a hot day in VA & got early stages of heat exhaustion.
You gotta strong stomach if you can put a couple of pop tarts in with that. I'd be better off with "a lake of stew, and whiskey too, you can paddle all around it in a big canoe" Brother.
AF it is. Glad to be a live person. Night BB
