Trail mix
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Trail mix or gorp is a snack food commonly consumed during outdoor recreational activities such as hiking, backpacking, mountaineering, and camping.

Common ingredients include:

    * Nuts, such as peanuts, cashews or almonds
    * Dried fruits such as cranberries or raisins
    * Chocolate chips or M&M's
    * Breakfast cereals
    * Seeds, such as sunflower seeds
    * Granola
    * Carob chips or banana chips
    * Shredded coconut
    * Pretzels

This food mixture is termed "scroggin" in New Zealand and Australia. A mix of only nuts (especially those rich in omega-3 fatty acids) and raisins is known as "student food", or Studentenfutter in German-speaking countries.
