Food Types:
- Food breaks down into freeze dried and dehydrated,
- Food that needs a little cooking like couscous
- And dry grains.
Some Resources:
- Wilderness Dining covers pre-packaged meals thoroughly.
- Mountain House makes freeze dried meals (including stuff like eggs) that only requires water and no cooking.
- There are freeze dried beans, vegetables, and fruits,
- supermarket items such as granola, energy bars, M&Ms, instant soups, raman noodles, and meats in tin foil packages.
There are plenty examples of a packing lists out there as well.
I plan on sticking to things that don't require any cooking. I'll probably pick up some Mountain House for dinner and make my own breakfast and lunch.
"...I think of a Cree friend with whom I travelled early in the century. I wonder what he would think about the modern day luxury of this food budget. We had a canoe, fish line, rifle, two rabbit skin blankets, flour, tea and a bag of salt. We slept under the canoe, and lived largely off the country - on fish, game and berries."
