POST #843
This is going to be a big adventure. I will be on the train for 10 hours with no personal refrigerator. Since the first few of the hours will be night-time (I get on at 2am), I will probably sleep. Still, knowing me, I will want food since my refrigerator is not handy (Have you ever experienced that? If your refrigerator is just in the other room, you don’t get hungry, but if there is no food that you can control, you are starving? I used to feel that way on transpacific flights, so I always traveled with a big food bag. Now you can’t do that on planes, but you can still do it on trains!)
I have made kale chips and sunflower/flax seed crackers, along with some cheddar cheeze to dip the crackers into. I am also going to bag about 4 days worth of Garden of Life Raw Meal powder (This is not the world’s best tasting stuff — sort of a cross between dirt and grass, but it is filling …. I’m assuming that water will be available, but I’m still going to carry a couple of bottles with me). In addition, I am carrying some of my latest vegetable ferments (pickles) for my parents to try — if I get really desperate, I can dig into those. If I were at home, all of this would be enough for at least 4 days. … I guess I will make it to my destination without starving to death.
