I tried chewable coffee - Dry Brew

What if you could chew your coffee? Does that sound like a stupid idea? Maybe. Maybe not.

I love coffee and I love the outdoors, so I'm always looking for the best portable coffee for hiking, skiing, and backpacking. I picked up a free sample of Dry Brew at a Spartan Race and decided to give it a try. They call it a cup of coffee in a single bite. One chew has 65mg of caffeine - about the same as a small cup of coffee. The first ingredient is actually coffee, which is a good sign. It's small, portable, fits in your pocket, and doesn't require any equipment.

But would I actually use it? I pull out my old thermos to explain - and tell the story of the time I got hypothermic. Trust me, it's related.
