Title: What is your choice snack between routes?
Post by: MrF on June 20, 2010, 01:25:15 pm: I find bread/pasta too heavy on the stomach for snacking on between routes. The staple is Malt loaf or Bananas, but I am getting rather bored of both!

What is your choice snack for a days climbing?

Post by: Richie Crouch on June 20, 2010, 01:40:31 pm: oat & raisin bars/bananas/chocolate bars & plenty of water

Usually eat small bits spread throughout rests during a session, then a protein shake & ham/salad/cheese sandwich straight after finishing.

More seriously - flapjack for some instant energy.. Light pasta salad an hour or two before the crag...?

Cheap, pleasant tasting, healthy, don't leave a funny taste in your mouth, virtually indestructible, don't need peeling or any of that bollox, and probably have some nutritional value or other.
Title: Re: What is your choice snack between routes?
Post by: The Sausage on June 21, 2010, 07:40:49 am: Rice cakes and honey (tastes like sugar puffs). Also do a tupperware of jumbo oats/raisins/chopped nuts/seeds and soak in apple juice. And snickers.

Post by: shark on June 21, 2010, 12:25:34 pm: Tesco's - Sainsbury's there's no significant difference. It's all big business. And the fat raisins in the mix are especially nice. I do most of my shopping at Morrison's though.

Total bollocks shark, we've done this to death before. Tesco's stand head and shoulders above any other retailer in terms of outright cuntishness and scumbaggery. There's no excuse whatsoever for shopping there and everyone should boycott the fuckers as it's the only way to stop stuff like this:

Title: Re: What is your choice snack between routes?
Post by: Jaspersharpe on June 22, 2010, 08:07:11 am: Yeah, it's called :google: :P

I love Waitrose (also for many reasons) but doing all your shopping there = throwing money away. We used to get everything from there when it first opened (and I was overexcited having never thought there'd be one in Sheffield) but it really is madness to buy shit like washing powder and bread from somewhere where it's twice as expensive as elsewhere. Especially when you have a sprog.

As we agreed on the other thread, we're all hypocritical to a certain extent when it comes to shopping but if you want to start somewhere then start by eliminating the biggest cunts and boycott Tesco's.

as for food at the crag, I struggle to keep down my normal lunch of:

Post by: Jaspersharpe on June 22, 2010, 09:31:03 am: Yet another case of the bastards throwing their weight about. They think they can do what they want and because money talks, they can. The only thing that can stop it is if people stop giving them money. It's not difficult is it.....
Title: Re: What is your choice snack between routes?
Post by: SpanishJuan on June 22, 2010, 09:52:19 am: it does seem like a wasted battle but one I'm sticking with. In 2005 the Gruniad reported Tesco collects one in every eight retail pounds we spend (http://www.guardian.co.uk/money/2005/oct/07/consumeraffairs.supermarkets). any idea what that is now. I will put a church roof style thermometer board outside my house and start painting it white over time, hopefully, as their strangle hold is reduced :dance1:
Title: Re: What is your choice snack between routes?
Post by: Jaspersharpe on June 22, 2010, 09:57:06 am: It was one in seven in 2007.

Which is why it's annoying when people say "they're all the same". They're not.

I agree it may seem futile but if everyone blah blah blah etc etc.
Title: Re: What is your choice snack between routes?
Post by: SpanishJuan on June 22, 2010, 10:20:30 am: You is right Jasper. it needs repeating and repeating and then repeating some more. I also thought it was a bit off they created Tesco Dairy Centre of Excellence at Liverpool University’s Wood Park Farm (http://www.farmersguardian.com/dairy-centre-of-excellence-opens/23253.article) but it does turn out they pay more than the co-op and most other supernarkets for their milk. So the farmers producing for tesco loose less money per litre than those producing for morrisons!
Anyway, What do you have for lunch?? I like food that makes me smile
