Do you have measurements for this? I would like to maybe skip the powdered vitamins (so you wouldn’t need as much sugar), and maybe use, as Granny suggested, cinnamon or cocoa instead. What a neat idea!

Thank you, but I can't take credit. It was created by Andre Briend, a French pediatric nutritionist to treat starving children in Africa. The results are dramatic.

I haven't been able to find a recipe for it, but the ingredients are in the post you referenced. I'm just experimenting until I find something we like. (My first two attempts I used *way* too much peanut butter.)

I haven't played with it for awhile, but you've inspired me to try again! Here is the next place I'll start:

5 TBSP peanut butter
1 TBSP vegetable oil
1/4 C powdered milk
Sugar to taste (no clue)
Powdered vitamins and minerals
No Salt to taste

It's important to remember that this is supposed to be a complete meal replacement. Two packs at 600 calories each for women and children and three packs for men. The beauty is that it's cheap, portable and it stores well. It's a LOT of nutritional bang for your buck. Tons of energy and, if you do choose to add the vitamins, enough of the important stuff to avoid scurvy, etc.

This reminds me of the Mormon Missionary Candy, they add enough powdered sugar, to make it rollable into balls.

I remember posting the recipe, but not when it was.

So far all I see are chocolate covered.

I’d substitute almond butter for peanut butter (no chance of aflotoxin, a known carcinogen) and honey for sugar. Sounds great.

I’d advise everyone to purchase a product called MMS (Miracle Mineral Supplement). At least check it out.
