    I agree. Dates are extremely an calorie dense, natural food, that is usually super tasty while on the trail. As a side note, try to vary your diet. If all you eat is dried fruit, you will eventually get the runs. Commented Mar 27, 2013 at 20:37
  • Dates seem to come in at about 2.75cal/gram. Other options easily reach 4cal/gram. Unless there are super dry dates available?

  • You do NOT want super dry dates. They become date flavoured rocks. Commented Oct 3, 2021 at 15:32
