ramen noodles, the least satisfying/least filling trail food I've tried!
I'm one of those oddballs who really likes them, I do add other bits and pieces though.

Homemade dehydrated meals, no-oatmeal and keto bricks - it is the MCT oil powder and the coconut creamer that help with the calories. See this thread for some of the details:

The bottles are pharmacy food grade HPDE bottles. I bought mine in Switzerland, but I did a quick search for a UK site with similar item:

I've never calculated the calories of food packed/eaten on a trip - but I do know my appetite doesn't kick in for a couple of days.
The first 2 days I have to force myself to eat an evenig meal - if I don't I'll struggle the following morning with an energy deficit.
On the 3rd night supper goes down a lot easier.
I always take too many sweet snacks = packing my fears.

Fantastic. (I assume you are still on a carnivore-diet?). The joy of fat-adaptation. If it is just overnight then sometimes I will do a fasted trip and not take anything except (black) coffee for the morning.

I seem to have it sussed for myself, but its quite boring on the whole, tho when you're tired and hungry its fine.
Muesli, milk chocolate with hazelnuts, dehydrated evening meals (homemade or bought), savoury and sweet biscuits, cheese ( when not too warm), chorizo, nuts, teabags, cocao.
800 g ish.
Any shop, cafe, pub on route is taken advantage of.

My hero has to be Lucy Walker, who led her team to the summit of the Matterhorn in 1871 on a diet of nothing but Champagne and Madeira Cake, preserving her modesty with bloomers and full hooped skirt. Pure inspiration. I wonder what she'd have made of our lightweight ramblings?

Paté, different cheese and meat mixes (you can buy maybe 20 different variations of these), caviar mixes, mustard, fish, remoulade (think this is pretty much tartare sauce?). Reindeer and cheese is my favourite. Mix with some Polarbröd:
And then some dried älg sausage and you're good to go
