I've heard that on high altitude treks , experienced climbers bring sticks of butter and chomp on it as they climb to keep their daily calorie intake up . Eating raw butter , while fun , cannot be very appetising , my solution . Fudge infused with energy creating chemicals , basically fudge with red bull in the mix . Fudge is basically butter and fat so it would give you your needed calories , it would taste alot better then butter and it would give an extra jump to your step and jitter to your speech . Could also be eaten by gamers who need an extra kick to beat level 25 until they fall in to a sugar induced coma .

       Sticks of butter? Blurgh! Try Kendall Mint Cake. Much tastier and just full of sugar.

       Hike with a sugar cane that supports your weight and blood sugar level.

       Judging by Touching The Void, munching raw butter seems to be the very least of the indignities mountain climbers get to experience. But anyway, I thought chocolate had long been used for this purpose?

       There was once a ironic UK climbers web site that "promoted" lard as the ultimate power food, complete with spoof merchandising, such as T-shirts. It was a reaction to climbers endlessly debating the proper, but often daft, food to take on a climb with them.   

       Wow, [hippo] has managed to track down the very same people I was talking about. I'm impressed.

       [Aristotle] Lard t-shirts still seem to be available (links).

       i've seen sites that have edible tents and camping fuel , but it's pretty expensive and not good for trips more then a day

       Condensed milk is also popular, as it's basically a saturated solution of long life milk and sugar. It doesn't freeze too well, either, so it's easy to suck out of the tube.   

       When you get to high altitudes you feel pretty nauseous so anything that goes down easy is good. (I have no personal experience of high altitude climbing, but I count Michael Groom, a relatively famous climber, among my acquaintances. He has a great ability to explain events like a killer storm on Everest in terms that make it seem almost mundane.)

       And those disgusting compressed wheat biscuits that go into emargency rations. They look and taste like blocks of particle board but you take a long time to get hungry after you eat one.

       Just use small dense squares of raw whale blubber and be done with it.
