Hmm, I don't have an angle grinder/bolt cutters in my disaster prep kit... Waffle House does. What do they know that I do not know?

@ai6yr Its interesting the emphasis on power bars (I have seen it mentioned twice) and its not a bad idea

Having eaten at Waffle House on a few occasions it may be a better choice

do actual "Power Bars" still exist?

I used to be on their "taste tester" list, but that was back in the early 90's when I still lived in the Bay Area.

@MsMerope @cvvhrn I have a couple here, don't know if they still make them. I don't think mine are edible anymore, not without breaking my teeth. They are decent "cram some calories in your body, who cares what they taste like"

Years ago, at my first full length (Ironman) triathlon in Florida, I took pointers from a friend who was a professional triathlete (got paid — not much — and was eligible for prize money). He suggested unwrapping a few PoweBars and slapping them on my bike frame to peel off while riding. Well... they melted to the frame and alternately came off with paint chips attached (Schwinn TT bike with nice lacquer!) or stuck in gooey globs. It was a mess.

Careful is right! 🤣
