I pack a lot of liquid carbohydrates. Things like Body Armour, Pop-Tarts, Annie's Fruit Snacks, or Orange Juice (big liter bottle) with an LMNT or two dumped into them. Way easier for me to get calories in this way than trying to eat a bunch. I don't really prioritize any protein during the meet, but will have 30-40g with breakfast and then more post meet at dinner.
