I’m going to be camping for 4 days at a location without easy access to fire (hence no boiled water). As such, I’m going to be packing a bunch of canned stuff for my daily meals. The place is in England, where we’re expecting a few hot days this week and maybe some rain over the weekend.
However, I have some free time before the trip to cook food. But I’m not sure if there’s any good foods I could bring along that could keep for 3-4 days without a fridge. I guess that crosses out most meat dishes.
Some ideas I had were: falafel, fritters, bread, calzones, pasties. Have you tried taking such foods camping and if so, did they last a few days without spoiling? Are there any other foods you’d recommend? Thank you so much!
I only know the German ones and while they’ll keep you alive and healthy easily, they won’t keep you happy.
(Edit: but my knowledge about those is old, maybe they’re delicious and wonderful by now, but I doubt it)
I went through the whole menu not too long ago and they can be pretty hit or miss, but very edible. They’ve removed some of the worst offenders like the “vomelet”. Most things taste uninspired but the meals can be pretty diverse and there’s some solid options like chili mac or maple patty. None of them have made me particularly unhappy. I hear German rations are really good though, so maybe I just have low standards because we have worse food here.
I’m not speaking from personal experience, but according to some family members in the U.S. military they still suck here, at least in terms of flavor.
