What can you bring to eat at the Ontario bar exam? Asking way too early

I am fully aware we are three months out and I have no business thinking about this yet.

Anyway. What do you actually bring. I am worried about being hungry and also about eating something that makes me sluggish for the second half. Filing this under things I would rather worry about than open my Business Law materials.

Whatever you eat on a normal study day. Exam day is not the day to introduce your digestive system to a new protein bar.

Also yes it is early, and also this is the exact thread I read in August last cycle, so carry on.

Nothing heavy. I had a big lunch before the solicitor one and spent the first forty minutes of the afternoon fighting to stay awake, which is not a problem you want to be solving during an exam.

Honestly the most useful thing I brought was a bottle with a lid that does not leak. Mine went over and I spent the break dealing with that instead of resetting
