The ONLY reason I have Trioxane is due to the extreme heat it burns at. (So I can easier light wet/damp tender.) If you have not used it then you don't understand how hot it gets. It gets hotter than esbit and lights easier I have tested and compared. The trioxane caught my windscreen (al) on fire. (I have tested every product I could get my hands on and have a HUGE review that I need to post still.)

Thanks for the info about cliff bars i`ll have to get those again they taste great and I used to have boxes of them.

Art_in_FL- I have 3 cans of sardines The power bars are a first resort energy supplement like when we broke down and I needed a boost I don't think I`ll be adding any cans of soup, maybe some dried packets of potatoes you get at the supermarket due to the high carb content and super light weight (require water). Maybe 1 can of tuna and 2 packets of potatoes.

Great suggestions everyone!
