I mind one time up in the backwoods, my buddy's lad, about 12 stated he was hungry at about 9AM. He didn't eat much for breakfast at 5AM even after I told him it would be a long day in the woods. I opened a tin of salmon and he refused it. Smelled GROSS! I said, "In the backwoods, we travel light." and I ate it. He asked if I had anything else. I said, "Nope. Just salmon and crackers and water. I told you we wouldn't be back to the camp until an hour after dark. I brought tins of salmon, crackers and water. What did you bring to eat?"

To this day, that lad LOVES tinned salmon and crackers up in the backwoods. Two tins and some crackers and ya can walk 40km a day in the backwoods.

And he ate a big breakfast the next morning... >;-) A course, he brought junk food too. But, at least he learnt his lesson.
