Machka,
Thanks for that report. I'd encourage you to post it on your website. Under Goldrush it says... Stay tuned for the experiences, at the moment.
Ironically, on the Gold Rush site for food at controls states:
We understand the need to supply 500-700 calories per hour on this event.
Homemade soups.
Noodles/Pasta/Potatoes freshly cooked
Energy bars and snacks for jersey pockets
Hot foods and liquids at night, because it could be 50F degrees
Plenty of fluids and electrolytes in the day, because it will be 90F degrees
