Gorp (less commonly, GORP), is a term for home-made trail mix, popular with North American hikers. The name is said to be an acronym of "Good Old Raisins and Peanuts," though the 1913 Oxford English Dictionary cites a 1913 reference to the verb gorp, meaning "to eat greedily," so the acronyms may be folk etymology or backronyms.
