In this video I show how to make a cheap and simple snack food that’s ideal for keeping well fed when travelling or working.

One of the reasons I got really into nutrition in my teens was that I did a lot of endurance exercise – long distance cross-country walking, backpacking, and cycle touring. I didn’t “go vegan” as such; I just realised that eating really cheaply, having light-weight food for travel, and packing a whole lot of nutrition in a small space, made vegan wholefoods far preferable to the canned or dried rubbish generally on offer to campers in the 1980s.

Back then I (unwittingly) evolved a simple snack that packed a balance of protein, fats, and carbohydrates that kept me going: “Lembas Scones”.

I show how to make them, and I do an analysis to show how they compare to the common ‘shop-bought’ energy/protein snacks on the market.

As I show, “Do-It-Yourself” is a far better option to help you live a simple, cheap and low impact lifestyle.
