I was just reading an article on long range hiking food, and in a paragraph about the importance of calcium, they mentioned mixing powdered milk with peanut butter. Has anyone tried this? I had to dring a litre of water just to finish the article

That's a new one on me. Let us know how it tastes, OK???

Here's a good page with some good tips along those lines. I like it, but it's a little grainy.

I haven't tried this but I do mix instant coffee in with my instant oatmeal. It gives me just the right kick to wake up and start the morning.

It isn't that new, the old Hersey's formula for high temp chocolate had powdered milk in it a thermostabilizer. Should work about the same in peanut butter, so it doesn't get soupy in high heat.

And you don't need that drink of milk, it's already to stuck to the roof of your mouth with the peanut butter.

Just joking

do you use the "salmonella" flavor peanut butter, creamy or crunchy?

We can't hardly find peanut butter right now in Arkansas.

Being up for just about anything, this morning I tried this mix. Not real easy to do the actual mixing, made the peanut butter flavor a tad weaker, and the mix was very gritty. It didn't kill me, I don't know the actual improvment in calcium one might get, but for me it is not worth the bother...

Sounds like MRE's when i was in the service.
