any PrepHoleers who are vegetarian or vegan? haven't been on a multi-day trip since stopping eating animals so not sure what some good replacements for food are, any advice?
any?

I mean you're gonna get a lot of ricin beans suggestions which are good but good lord man just pack a shitload of vægan protein shakes but that diet is fricking hard
honestly wasn't too tough for me, i feel like I eat healthier (obviously this is subjective) and have done all I can to replace things i'm missing. I do miss burgers though.
well that's fair but when you go PrepHole for days it's tough.
what do you eat for protein at home? is it hard to pack PrepHole and prepare? if so I says protein shakes
Whey powder is the classic, but powdered egg and powdered milk are also both high in protein and useful for making pancakes
true. good for vegos but not preferable for vægans
That probably just because you plan and watch what you eat. Vegans are not automatically health. Fries with ketchup are vegan. Oreos, chips, Coca-Cola, that 1700 cal frappe with basedboy milk, that industrial strength poly chem replacement miced meat and Pure fatty oil are all vegan.
That veganism makes you healthy is an illusion.
Generally you want protein and pills to keep yourself topped up. But unless you go very long term it's fine.

add dto that that vegans are often gays, then it's really unhleathy
Well when it comes to physical prowess and strength the first thing that comes to mind is obviously going to be an ungulate grazing on low quality grasses and plants. Some people might think of a lion or cheetah; but this is wrong. Imagine looking up to an animal that eats so much meat they must be constantly constipated and perpetually on the verge of a massive coronary.
it's insanity.
There's a couple things you want to watch out for. Protein is the obvious one but there's others. Dietary B12 only comes from meat but you can easily supplement with vitamins. Iron from plants is less bioavailable but can also be supplemented. Other than that, the usual trail mix of seeds and nuts is really helpful for getting enough protein and essential fatty acids. The big divide in this category is Omega 6 vs Omega 3 fatty acids. Most give O6 (peanuts, sunflower seeds, hazlenuts, etc), while only a few give O3 (ground flax seeds, hemp hearts, chia seeds). For me a tablespoon or so of hemp for O3 plus a good assortment of the O6 varieties seems to do the trick. Another thing to keep in mind is that a lot have people have decided that grains = bad, but as a veggie you'll likely get most of your calories, protein, and water soluble vitamins from them. So choose ones with more concentrated nutrients and eat a variety of them (wheat is king, oats and potatoes are good, rice is poverty tier). One last tip, it's really easy to go overboard on vegetables that are heavy in oil-soluble vitamins, like carrots and spinach, because they tend to be cheap and versatile. The problem is that oil-soluble nutrients build up in your system and can become toxic at high enough levels. So don't just eat a ton of carrots for your vegetables, moderation is key. If you have any questions about what's the best bang for the buck, I highly recommend the site https://nutritiondata.self.com/. It pulls the data from the Standard Reference USDA nutrition database, which is by far the most complete, detailed, and well-sourced nutrition reference I've ever found.
Another thing I forgot to mention: there are three Omega 3 fatty acids: ALA, EPA, and DHA. The most important (essential) is the one I mentioned that comes from seeds (ALA). But the two others only come from fish, although they're less important (conditionally essential) but still great to add to your diet. For a vegetarian, the only realistic source of this is krill-based Omega 3 supplements. These often also include the seed based ALA as well, so you don't have to worry about taking flax or hemp hearts with you. So consider taking a krill O3 supplement.
really appreciate the write up - noticed some stuff I am missing in my diet. that website is great too thanks for putting me onto it.
a ton of lentils, beans, tofu, rice, high protein vegetables, nuts, etc. and protein shakes too - haven't been PrepHole for multiple days in a while/since i started the diet so I imagine it'll be tough to pack. good call with the protein shakes, it can be a replacement for a chunk of meals.
Animals can sense weakness. Bears are drawn to vegans like shitbulls to toddlers.
LARPers who haven't read walden or ever been PrepHole. Henry David Thoreau decided I'm superior to you homosexuals
Appeal to authority fallacy
Not strictly vegetarian, but mostly for me. Complete cookies and other non-dairy nutritional bars are important. They aren't cheap, but they provide balance and pretty decent calories/nutrition relative to weight. If you eat well before your trip, vitamins and shit aren't going to matter over a couple day span. Just macro balance.
Not as bad as the lazy and gay generalization amd whining that you guys attempted
henry thorau was a little b***h not something to hang ur hat on morono
>I'm right because some guy 200 years ago said so
What are you his medium?
Stop brining up dead people like your trying to rig an election, even if he was still alive he'd still think you're a gay
right because he didn't spend his life writing down his thoughts, and never once wrote his thoughts about vegetarians?
if you try strenous activity or exercise on a vegeteraina di et, you will die or seriously damage your body, im sorry
you could try eating meat?
a restrictive urbanite diet isn't compatible with real life (outside of hot yoga classes, white collar office jobs, HR busywork, and watching netflix)
peanut butter w/honey on a flour tortilla, ez pz snack/meal energy dense.
GORP
Oats
Beans
rice
A vegan going out into nature. I would be more worried about becoming food myself LOL
Eggs im a hard case or powdered
I was vegetarian for 20 years. I did multiple multiday hikes and ski trips.
>replacements
This is a word you must banish from your vocabulary. Going vegetarian enhances your food choices. Buy, read and cook from as many vegetarian cook books you can get your hands on.
What I ate on trips : beans (slow dry the contents of a can), potato soup (cube up and dry), pasta w/ cheese, pasta with basil and sun-dried tomatoes, fondu de tomates (cheese+tomatoes over potatoes. A first night meal), rice+veg (cook the veg, dry it with onions sauce), soup (make a thick soup and dehydrate)
Food was dried in my oven. Set it to lowest heat, crack the door open, run a small fan to circulate air out of the oven. The food often discolours and look bad. Practice this before going on a trip.
>going vegetarian enhances your food choices
Okay even you have to admit how stupid that phrase is.
Vegan/vegetarian means you need to be creative because you’re ignoring a huge and nutrient packed part of the diet.
If it’s an ethical or moral issue for you then fine; I don’t get it myself, but at least you’re living by principles- and that’s worthy of respect— but don’t pretend a non meat diet is in any way superior.
>no meat: here’s a novel worth of alternatives for your 2 week trip
>meat+: sweet I could eat jerky and dehydrated eggs indefinitely?
non meat diet means no inflammation, no purines, no gout, etc. care less about the animals, im not eating inflammatory foods. especially out on the trails where eating meat will give you horrid body odor and make every animal aware of your presence. the cleaner the fuel, the better, potatoes!
try eating what you find in the wild.
eat a good gluten free oatmeal, maple syrup, bee pollen, hemp seed, poppy seed, bananas, combine anyway, and good natural B12 supplement will make you a superman on the trails. personally a vegetarian with celiac, bread/gluten allergy, so i need the B12, but other non celiac vegetarian/vegan people tell me the B12 helps them a lot.
Yeah, I have gone on multiple long-distance bicycle trips, vegetarian for 11 years, vegan for 6. The winning ingredients are:
>nuts, seeds (also muesli bars and similar)
>dried fruit
>oats (cooked, or just soaked in water overnight)
>bread & peanut butter
>restock in towns with canned items and fresh produce depending on your luggage weight preference
Never had a problem with above. I also have a pouch of "greens/superfood powders", like spirulina/beetroot/broccoli/turmeric etc. for micronutrients and to add to meals.
Happy adventuring!
practice fleeing from predators
you are a prey animal
ah yes, and big fat burger eaters are predators lol
I just eat a lot of grains and legumes.
>Breakfast: Oatmeal with peanutbutter. If I passed by a shop the day before: baked beans on toast.
>Lunch: Tortillas with PB&J.
>Snacks: Nuts, dried fruit.
>Dinner: Lentils with pre-mixed curry blend. If I passed a shop that day: add coconut milk and/or canned tomato for extra flavour and calories.
Pretty based, and can be made to be pretty high calorie if you want/need.
I'll add:
The great thing about all of these are that they are dehydrated (so they don't weigh much per calorie, and also keep well), are generally calorie dense, have a lot of carbs for energy, and taste really good (to me).
I’m vegetarian. I’d suggest couscous and hard cheeses mostly, bobos bars, freeze dried eggs, beans, macaroni and cheese.
I don't anything factory farmed for ethical reasons. Multiday backpacking trips arent too bad with rice and beans, ramen, bagels, pb&j, etc. And I have no qualms with eating the fish that I catch myself
Yes I only eat plants and plant derivatives.
