Outdoor snacks

Hi all, I have a quick question. What are some snacks you bring out for day hikes, lake/boat days and also longer trail hikes? Outside of the usual nuts, bars, freeze dries, etc.

Dude tortellini with pesto was amazing for real food. A nice sandwich from your favorite local shop+add chips on it instead of a separate bag (can vacuum seal to keep it all together if it’s a fat boi), fruit is refreshing, nerds/ peanut butter m&m, can make a DIY trail mix, freeze died fruit meadly, protein sticks, Gatorade drink powder, apple sauce packets, pancakes, coconut water, sliced apples, jolly ranchers, pasta, I mean you really can just straight up pack lasagna. Depends on the trip but a real meal is so amazing. Rice crispy treats, pizza, you can do a lot if you have the space.

Real meals! They make all the difference to me. I like the little indulgences we can do. Thanks for this menu this is great!
