Here’s one I ran across awhile ago. Don’t know how long they stay fresh and edible:
Survival Logs Recipe
1 cup peanut, almond, cashew or other “nut butter”
1/2 to 3/4 cup honey, corn syrup, maple syrup, or homemade sugar syrup
2-3 cups crushed corn flakes, granola, crispy rice cereal, cookie, dry bread, pretzel, cracker or cake crumbs
Optional flavorings—dried milk powder, chopped dried fruits, sunflower seeds, chocolate chips, gumdrops, m&ms, candy sprinkles, chopped nuts, coconut
1 .In a saucepan, heat syrup to boiling, remove from heat.
2. Add nut butter, stir until melted and blend well.
3. Stir in enough cereal or crumbs to form a stiff dry dough
4. Knead in optional flavorings; form into candy bar size logs.
5. Roll in additional crumbs, coconut or sprinkles as desired. Wrap individually in wax paper or foil for travel or hiking food. Makes 10 logs.

You get weaker and weaker and more and more mentally foggy.
Your heart begins to beat oddly, your circulation slows, your muscles cramp and shake.
No one has taken it beyond 100 days.
Not going to work for me. I don’t eat sugar, syrup or other sugary products, no wheat, no chocolate. Recipe looks uber yuk to me.
Calories are relative. I’m a very small person, do not need “average” anything.
Also, I detest pizza, beer, chocolate and football. They rescinded my citizenship last year :). Drink red wine with dinner. Have yogurt for dessert.
My doc says I’m super healthy and will definitely live to be 100. I may need a few more years to see my uber-bitchy kitty through her life, because no-one else would put up with her.
I do eat beef, chicken, salmon, eggs, drink a little milk, just a wee bit of fruit and lots of organic veggies. Potatoes are my main starch. Love tiny red potatoes, steamed, and sliced into omelets, and with dinner. I have two meals/day. Who needs more when you get up late?
It’s not calories that count, but which foods you eat. A vegetarian diet of 2000 calories will lead to starvation while a 2000 calorie diet of meat and fat is plentiful and healthy.
Remember, this is for when you are up against it, hiking a 20 mile trail or on the run for some reason.
My Nutrisystem diet was 1200 calories/day.
Sounds yummy - maybe add some protein powder? My dad has four or five gallon size containers of it; one scoop of it has 30 grams of protein.
Don’t put a ‘best use date’ on it - should last couple of years if you vacuum seal it.

I haven’t share this in some time, but here is my Preparedness Manual I put together some time ago

I know media Fire is not the best host but its free. I am looking into other services, but MediaFire will have to work for now.
Good recipe. The drier it can be made, the longer it will probably last.
It is both.
For an active, large male, in a cold climate, 2000 calories a day of meat and fat is a starvation diet.

Some Scot fasted for a year monitored by a hospital. I’ll find one of the articles later.
Mix 50% meat powder, 45% tallow, 5% berry powder by weight.
Make into five ounce logs.
Each log is about 1000 calories.
Lasts pretty much forever if you use a food saver.
If you have fat reserves, you’re good to go for energy. You don’t need to eat large quantities of fat, protein, or carbs. You do need vitamins, minerals, and essential amino and fatty acids — five hundred calories a day of the right stuff would easily supply those.
If you don’t have fat reserves, you’ll need to add a thousand calories or so, of anything. Your body will turn it into energy. If you’re big or active, you’ll need more than a thousand calories. Skinny is not a good survival tactic.
