I'm sure there are other options but these are the ones we are prepared for on almost every trip we take. These are also pretty easy with no complicated preparation which was the point of this poll, easy prep quick and easy cooking. I think the mountain pie might be the most complicated. I can't think of other treats that are just as easy but if you got one, let's hear it.

Almost forgot, I think for me I would prefer the Mountain pie.

As much as I like S'mores the toasted marshmallow is my favorite part.
Never heard of a Mountain Pie.

I think another name for mountain pies are hobo pies. You can get pie makers in iron or aluminum, they are a clam shell device connected to long handles. It cooks the pie with the ingredients between two slices of bread. Shove them in the campfire for cooking.

I also like the mountain pies, always loved them with apple pie filling or pizza ingredients. I'm not a big fan of marshmallows so I don't eat them toasted or on smores. I used to have a clamshell popcorn popper you stick in the fire which did a good job with popcorn most of the time.

We like to do Smores, I like them with KitKat's of course ;)

S'mores are the first thing the boys ask for when we get setup, we can't camp without having them.

OK now I know what you mean. We have a pie clam shell for the fire. Just never heard them called that. We just call them camp pies.
We've done all kinds of fillings with ours, fruits, S'mores (not good) and cinnamon and brown sugar. We've also done lunch sandwiches in ours, usually ham & cheese or pizza. Once a corned beef and swiss cheese on rye bread was awesome!

S'mores here too, will have to try the Peanut Butter cups. KitKat sounds pretty tasty too.

Personally I like the hobo pies. We don't have any of the pie irons to make them but I see my wife already posted about the S'mores so I won't register another vote.

For versatility alone, I think the pies are great besides I hate marshmallows.

Had to go with "Other" as I just don't eat treats of that nature. Perhaps some Peanuts is about it...

Cracking peanuts and throwing the shells in the fire is one of my fun camp activities! I'm easy to entertain.
