Oh - well, that right there is not a simple question! I mean all the chocolate is certainly satisfactory, but favorite...?? I wouldn't define myself as a chocolate connoisseur really because my preference isn't straight up chocolate. And puritan chocolate fans dig the fancy European stuff, which, meh - just ain't how I roll.
I would say these are up there thanks to my Jewish upbringing and love for enough Passover candy to make you throw up.
Also I love me some Andes Creme De Menthe Thins when I am feeling aristocratic.
Oh oh oh! AND... you know how when you get a box of old fashioned chocolate, you pick out your favs by taking a bite and then putting the yucky ones back?? Well the ones with caramel in the middle are my jam.
Aren't you glad you asked? 😉
Halvah (candy made from ground sesame seeds) was my saving grace backpacking the John Muir Trail this past summer. Contains a whopping 340 calories for only 1.75 oz and pack weight was a big issue as we went 11 days without resupply. Halvah was also easy to get down at higher altitudes that can affect appetite (I have trouble over 11,000 ft). I ate 3 every day and only lost 3 lb over the 3 weeks we took for the ~200 miles whereas my husband lost 10.
We relied on Mountain House for dinner on JMT but got tired of some including previous favorites. Variety is a good idea. Raw "baby" carrots keep for several days if it is not too hot. Regarding bacon - sounds wonderful unless you are in "bear country", it's too aromatic.
http://www.amazon.com/Deli-Fresh-Pistachio-Halva-approx/dp/B000LRFX0E thats the best i could find online, my pastor's wife makes it occasionally since they're trying a lot of Jewish recipies. I seems like it'd be easy to make though! You should dive in and try it!

Thanks for the contest!
This is an old fashioned treat that my mom LOVES. It's called Halva... it's basically a paste made of sesame seeds.
