Pretend you have a fully functioning kitchen and filtered water. There is no limit to how much food you can bring, but you have to carry it. What would you bring?

    • 2kg wheat flour
    • 1kg cornmeal
    • 1kg flaked corn
    • 1kg chuño
    • 1kg eggs (around 15 large ones)
    • 1kg jerky
    • 400g lard
    • 400g grating cheese
    • 400g powdered milk
    • 300g tomato paste
    • 200g sugar
    • 1kg salt, seasoning, dry yeast, and vitamin C tablets (for the drinks)

    Total: 9.7kg. I can comfortably carry 10kg just fine. The first four items already give me around 18 Mcal, enough for the whole week, the rest is just fluff to get comfy.

    If the time period was longer I’d probably worry about vegs, but I’m not carrying something that is mostly water if I have water from the island.

    Your list will be likely very different from mine as it’s for two people and you probably don’t go through tomato paste as quick as I do. Also 10kg is something to carry comfortably, if you aren’t picky on carrying a lot of weight for short amounts of time you could add way more food to the list.
