Yes, it took me a while to track those down..! 'Pip & Nut' make them - you can find them on Fleabay or some heath food websites. They're not exactly cheap (come in boxes of 5 sachets) for the amount of peanut butter you get, but then I suppose it's paying for the convenience. I think they're really useful!

Glowsticks. I can get them free from work, so I really take the Michael.
I have a few red/blue/green and yellow hi/orange ultra at the top of each pack, bag or kit that I have in case (for whatever unlikely reason) I don't have a torch on me.

Cutting, combustion, cordage, container, cover.

Re: Small things that make life easier
Sachets of peanut butter sounds good! I like the idea of almond butter and things like that too. I'll have to do some googling.
I consider food, high calorie, savoury and high protein snacks a vital part of my EDC. Food and drink is something that I need more regularly than anything else and I save a small fortune by being prepared with snacks. Usually I've just got lidl snack bags of seed and nuts in my bag, but really, I need more options. They get boring.

I love motorcycles like a fat guy loves cake. I also love cake.

'Pip & Nut' also do sachets of Almond Butter & and one which I think is Almond Butter with Coconut.dangerman wrote:Sachets of peanut butter sounds good! I like the idea of almond butter and things like that too. I'll have to do some googling.

I've also just spent a small fortune on this website (a one off treat which I've been trying to justify to myself )... lots of great healthy American snacks - jerky bars etc - also great for the same kind of use. Postage is £11.00 though I'll let you know if it's worth it when my order comes through! Although to be fair the prices of the products are very good!
