Survival Bars image

This is a snack food recipe I have had for nearly 30 years. It is very filling and has a tendency to expand when consumed with liquids; therefore, eat sparingly and gradually to avoid bloated feeling. It is especially great for backpacking or camping trips as it does not require refrigeration. May be made ahead of time and frozen.

Overall, I thought these bars were just okay. They're not bad, but they're not great either.

I found these bars to be a bit dry. I would have liked them to be a bit more moist.

These bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred them to be a bit more savory.

I'm not a huge fan of the texture of these bars. They're a bit too chewy for my taste.

These bars are a bit time-consuming to make, but they're definitely worth the effort. They're so delicious and satisfying.

I love that these bars are so versatile. You can add any kind of nuts, seeds, or dried fruit that you like.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover ingredients. I always have a few odds and ends in my pantry and these bars are a great way to use them up.

I'm always looking for easy and portable snacks to take on my hiking trips. These survival bars fit the bill perfectly. They're easy to make and they pack a lot of punch.

These survival bars are a lifesaver! I was caught in a blizzard last year and these bars kept me going for days. They're packed with calories and nutrients, and they taste pretty darn good too.
