Re: Intro question

Can you tolerate some fish? That should be fairly easy to order in the

restaurants, or even make yourself if you are planning on a do-it-yourself trip.

Can you eat winter squashes? They are also easily available. How about

well-ripened pears without the skin? Are you able to handle probiotics right

now? They can help when travelling.

Before you leave for your trip, if you make a batch of chicken soup cooked extra

long, so it is very gelatinous, you can dilute small portions of it for the

right consistency each time you need your soup. So, freeze this extra thick soup

in ice cube trays, transfer the cubes into ziplock bags, and pack them well

sealed along with icepacks, in your checked in luggage, pop them into a freezer

if you can arrange something like that in advance at your hotels etc. Carry a

thermos along, into which you can transfer necessary amounts of soup for your

daily needs away from your hotel room.

Or depending on the kindness of hotels you are staying in, request the kitchen

to make you the simplest chicken soup at a possible extra charge.

Thanks for the idea Suneeti, I think I will freeze the soup in breastmilk bags

and check it in my luggage..that might help. We will not have kitchens in any

of our hotels/B & Bs, but I think I can ask for some simple foods in a few of the

countries where i know enough of the language. I forgot about fish. Ha! I

worry most of all about not being able to consume any fruits or veggies. I will

bring a peeler in my checked luggage for market finds, but I don't think i will

be able to cook at all. Fortunately we will not be in remote locations, so I

could also probably look for natural applesauce and maybe even baby foods and

such if I have to in supermarkets. Though I hope it doesn't come to that!

Thanks again!!
