If slow-release energy sourced from real, clean ingredients is your quest, then congratulations, The Crafty Weka Bar is the perfect take-along on any adventure. Made in New Zealand, each bar is packed with goodies like peanuts, oats and nutrient-rich seeds. Better still, each bar really does deliver on flavour, with options to suits most tastebuds, from Date & Orange; Berry, Berry, Beetroot; Cacao & Hemp and Gluten Free Almond Cacao or Nutty Caramel. Just don’t ask us to choose a favourite. We can’t. The only decision we’ll make is choosing between the 35g and 70g bar.
Keeping your mind and body fuelled while travelling can be something of a minefield. Packaging can be misleading and a sugar slump while driving isn’t desirable. So, we’re sharing our four favourite snacks on the go that tick all the boxes when it comes to taste, satiation and convenience.
Created for minds that crave a little more than chocolate, Mynd Chocolate Mushrooms are 100% natural and the perfect alternative to traditional chocolate. We love the dedication this New Zealand business has to the science of mushrooms as nature’s brain food. As the name suggests, Mynd Mushroom Chocolate is where mushrooms meet chocolate – and no, it doesn’t taste like mushrooms! This exciting (and let’s be honest, genius) offering from Mynd combines its own New Zealand Lion’s Mane extract and 58% dark whole-bean chocolate by award-wining chocolate makers Raglan Chocolate.
Once upon a time freeze dried meals had a bad rap. Kiwi brand Real Meals has well and truly put paid to this out-of-date notion. Based in Nelson, these super tasty freeze dried meals have been developed by world-class adventurer racer Nathan Fa’avae. After struggling to find tasty, nutritious food while racing, he set about finding a solution – and Real Meals was born. Serving up proper home-cooked, tasty food – not just ‘camp food’; the lineup includes everything from Bircher Muesli and Tropical Pudding to Venison Casserole, Pulled Pork, and Moroccan Tagine. Flavour is the key to success, although the convenience is next level too. Just add boiling water. Whether you’re racing, exploring, tramping or just fancy a night off cooking, they’re made for convenience and satisfaction.
Yearning for a sweet treat to enjoy on your travels is perfectly normal. The moreish new Cinderella Yoghurt Mango and Dark Choc Mango are the perfect tempters for any occasion. Juicy dried mango pieces are coated in either creamy yoghurt or dark chocolate – choose your own favourite. Ideal for snacks on-the-go, to satisfy cravings, and as a driver snack for long (or short) trips. Keep a few packets tucked away in your RV (or home) to add impact to a grazing board, or just enjoy as an afternoon or evening treat.
