When I came into the “circle of trust” of my husband’s
family and was introduced to Gorp. Gorp
was a snack that made its way on hikes, ski trips, or basically anything that
involved the outdoors. I didn’t mind the
snack as it always contained chocolate.

As
with any good relationship, the family snack started to rub off on me and I
began packing it as a snack for my children.
It has turned out to be a great resource for a nutritious, easy,
packable snack for all of our adventures, however great or small.

Gorp is basically trail mix.
The acronym is “good, ol’, raisins, and peanuts” and gorp is also a verb
meaning to “eat greedily” per Wikipedia.
Due to allergies, my gorp does not contain nuts or milk chocolate, but
plenty of sweet and salty favorites.
