    Hunting Lunches

    Hi all,

    I’ve been wondering what everyone’s go to food for lunches when out for a day hunt?

    Depends a bit on the hunt and what I have in the cupboard. OSM bars are good cos it's quick and easy, cheese & crackers & tuna another easy one. Bacon and egg pie if I'm motivated the night before. Longer multi-day trips is usually a mix of OSM or muesli bars, home made jerky, scroggin and lollies.

    Personally I go all out on one day missions as a few more grams and bit more bulk really don't matter. A big pink icing boston bun full of butter, fresh fruit, left over cottage pie.... Save the osms and dry salami wraps for longer trips.

    In a perfect world some of the bearers would carry a picnic hamper fully provisioned with cold meats, bread, a selection of cheeses, salads and dessert plus suitable cold beverages. Others would have a folding table, chairs and a pavillion for shade as one can't be expected to sit on the ground like the natives.
    However the world's not perfect, I sit on the ground, drink Luke warm water from a canteen whilst having a muslei bar, some biltong and maybe an apple.

    I don't know how I survived without Boston buns as a young fella. One for smoko and two for lunch. Have no idea how I didn't develop Diabetes!

    The Cambodian run Hot bread shop in Turangi always gets a hammering on the way to my hunting haunts. And a bit of chocolate to assist with the carry up the hill back to base
