This rabbit hole is just for fun: I found a huge spreadsheet that lists data for thousands of potential hiking foods.
My question is: What is the most lightweight mixture of foods that you can bring camping that has the ideal balance of macronutrients? (60% carbs, 20% protein, 20% fats).
Thoughts:
1. You want to minimize the weighted average g/calories.
2. I'll assume you can get micronutrients by taking pills.
3. I'll assume variety/taste doesn't matter because the goal is to carry as little weight as possible.
4. I'm guessing that you want to ask JMP to try a lot of possible combinations with some maximum for the number of ingredients (10?) and tell it to hit the macronutrients goal and calculate and minimize the weighted average g/calories.
But how?
