Re: Snacks for a ROAD TRIP!

[Guest guest]

Don't do like I do and go overboard with too much food! LOL

Apples are nice in a car and you can throw the cores out the window.

If you have a recipe for beef jerkey, that's always welcome on road

trips too. Most store brands have MSG.

Also don't forget drinks - might I recommend Kleen Kanteen? It's a

stainless-steel sports bottle, costs around $15 on amazon.com.

They've specially sought out a steel that doesn't leech into the

drink. Much better than plastic water bottles (I'm doing something

on it for Earth Day - did you know Americans throw away 60 MILLION

plastic water bottles a DAY???)

If you worry about road fatigue, bee pollen is nice for keeping you

alert, better than coffee.

Have a wonderful time! I'm so happy for you!

couple does not believe organic even matters.

Too true! I was having a conversation on the guppies2 forum about

water problems killing fish and I'm about to think I should just stop

drinking! LOL!
