I only eat energy bars while climbing. While climbing, I never want to eat a full meal, but rather a series of snacks throughout the day. Most bars contain about 200 calories, which is about the right size for me while climbing They are small, pack easily, require no preparation, provide reasonably complete nutrition, and are so convenient that you can easily eat one at the belay. The only negative is that most bars have a narrow range of optimal temperature. Some bars melt in high temperatures, while others become rock hard in the cold, something to keep in mind when selecting your bars for the day's climbing.
