Plain and simple...

I'm a big breakfast and dinner guy. Lunch is light supplemented with lots of snacks throughout the day!!!

With that in mind, I'm curious what you all eat while on the river!

What are some of your favorite snacks to bring down a river?

One of my favorite quick river snacks is a buncha cut up fruit of diff types, kept in the cooler.

I think it helps regulate my blood sugar and replenishes lost electrolytes from the beer. I eat a few pieces and feel like new again...not ot mention it's cold.

That and I have found that a bag of 7 layer dip combos seems to keep making it on the boat recently.

Weed cookies ;)

PBR is good, but I go with the Keystone Light. Perfect raft beer IMO: Watery, so when you get hit with a wave you can't tell the difference if it gets water logged, goes down smooth all day, keeps you (relatively) hydrated, and you can drink enough of them that you get a real solid buzz but doesn't pack the punch to mess you up when the float is over. When I'm taking a break from that, you go with a nice refreshing Twisted Tea to mix things up.

A good cheese dip and some crackers is pretty solid, with some summer sausage to go with that.

A couple of thick slices of summer sausage, 4 sea salt triscuits, 2 thick slices of good cheddar cheese and a gala apple. Pre sliced and packaged at breakfast, stored in cooler till someone is hungry.
