Sunflower seeds. I live on them since I quit chewing tobacco.

I believe the pepperoni roll was originally created as easy to eat meal for the coal miners here on WV.

Apples, trail mix, and nut bars usually get me through longer sits. All day sits require multiple pb&j’s. Always bring water with me.
Teaching is only demonstrating that it is possible.... Learning is making it possible for yourself.

My favorites are complete cookie (basically a big cookie disguised as a semi healthy cookie with 16g of protein). It survives the cold weather without getting hard (most bars get hard as a rock) and is filling. Also PB andJ, and water. That will last me until at least 1:00 or so.

I only like Creamy PB and jelly. Forget that crunchy stuff! :naughty:

I also eat granola bars and candy bars . Snickers, because my late gpa who taught me how to hunt would always break out a snickers bar in the deer stand. miss that guy!

I am going to try these generic crystal light packages with water this year bc they provide caffeine for those all day sits. in the past i only drank water.

Deer jerky, mango jerky, trail mix, sunflower seeds, granola bars, unless I'm with my baby brother in the blind in which case we eat a 4 course meal cooked over the hibachi! (No kidding last time on the farm he asked if I wanted to go sit the ridgetop in the blind he had set up the day before. With the hibachi already in there!)

Jeez, I've never eaten anything on stand, never even thought about bringing anything. I've never done an all day hunt either, so...
A human can survive for about 30 days without anything to eat, but only about four days without water.
I remember hearing an old Indian saying something about they believed that hunting on an empty stomach made the hunter more determined and therefore more effective.

I’ll carry cliff bars a lot of mornings. I usually order a case before deer season off amazon to save a few bucks.

For all day sits I’ll make a few sandwiches, usually an orange or apple.

The only thing out of the norm I do when I travel to hunt Kansas is I will carry my jet boil with me on a freezing cold days and make some coffee in the stand. Starbucks vias are nice around two o’clock when your cold and tired. I guess I could screw up a hunt like that, but my philosophy is if it keeps you in the stand then you might as well do it. That combined with the high winds out there I doubt the noise will ever be an issue.

I only eat on all day sits. A couple of equate nutrition drinks. A zip-loc baggie with a daily portion of this mix: one can mixed nuts/one big box raisins/one big bag M&M's. I read about it a long time ago and have used it ever since. There is probably a similar mix commercially available, but I prefer to make my own. On occasion I may eat a nutrition bar or Snickers. Those fruit pouches are a handy, too. I keep a hydration bladder within reach at all times.
