TORQ are experts in nutrition, these breakfasts have everything you need to give you a get-up-and-go feeling when you're waking up on the trail.
TORQ says:
Our TORQ Explore instant super-charged breakfasts have been designed to provide easily accessible, useful and effective nutritional fuel in a convenient, lightweight, low volume package. Simply add hot or cold water to the pack and your breakfast is ready to eat.
It is TORQ’s Performance Nutrition heritage that makes our Explore Breakfasts so unique and sets them apart from other outdoor food products in the marketplace. Each pack contains over 500 calories of high quality functional food to provide the energy needed to get the most out of your adventurous activities.
Open pack and add approximately 150ml of either cold or hot water, stir and enjoy!
The pouches are heat sealed and some air is trapped inside them. If you would like to expel the air to reduce the volume of the pack before your trip, partially tear into the top of the pack, expel all of the air and use the zip-seal to reseal the pack. Adding a small piece of tape to the tear in the pack will ensure that contents are then 100% secure.
Our Verdict
TORQ have stood the test of time in the hydration and energy snack market, whilst many other brands have come and gone. Their years of experience have allowed them to develop highly effective products that really do work.
As a company, TORQ focus on using the highest-quality ingredients they can and they also put a lot into scrutinising their production methods. This means you are getting products that are amazing at helping you keep going on the hill, without any dodgy unethical ingredients or practises going into their manufacture.
They're also conscious about the effects their products and packaging have on the environment and do a lot of research into ways to lessen their impact.

| STAFF'S TASTE TEST - This supercharged banana and mango d breakfast cereal packs a flavorful punch with its blend of oats, rice crisps, and real fruit pieces. The combination of textures and natural sweetness provides a satisfying and energising start to the day. We enjoyed this cold, but it can also be eaten warm. |
