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!
24 packs of Scampi Fries and a dozen Mars Bars.
You can have meat, but something cured and in a pack like biltong.
And every hiker’s favourite, Kendal mint cake, which is as close to Terry Pratchett’s dwarf bread as any substance I know.
And this is England. Chances are you’ll be like two miles from the nearest shop at a push.
I’m going to guess Lake District or Scotland. You can easily be several hours walk from shops.
Well, Scotland isn’t part of England. But sure, you can get far from civilisation, by UK standards. Dartmoor and Yorkshire Moors are others. It’s only a few miles as the crow flies, but it’ll feel a lot more than that when carrying a load of camping stuff and having to go around a river.
