I have a 10 hour road trip coming up and I'm worried about what I will eat while in the car. I dont eat at fast food places because there is nothing there I can really eat without PB'ing or vomiting.

What kind of foods/munchies would you suggest to take in the car.

(I just got home from an 8 hour road trip and have to leave again in a few days for a 10 hour trip, while on the 8 hour trip, I did not eat the whole way there or back because my family wanted fast food, and there was nothing that I knew I could eat.) I cannot eat chicken, grapes, or any bread products. I know I can eat string cheese, but need more than that for 10 hours....HELP

Have you tried Quest bars? They have high Protein content and low net carbs. They have very few ingredients and are very tasty!

I'd pack a little ice chest and pack yogurt, tuna or chicken salad, cheese. I'd maybe throw a couple of protein bars in my purse too.

Fruit, Protein bars, nuts, cheese, individual packs of Peanut Butter, crackers. This is my typical long-haul flight food, since I never trust I'll find anything band-friendly in an airport or on an airplane. I'm sure it will work for a long car trip, too.

Beef Jerky works for me (Oberto makes some without MSG). Just make sure you take small bites as that's difficult to chew really well sometimes. Dried fruits (I love Apricots). Nuts.

Cooler with yogurt (but don't over pack that). Protein shakes.

Have you looked on the forum for fast food ideas and it still doesn't work or haven't tried them yet?

Chick-fil-a - I get the kids 4 count grilled nugget combo (with fruit). Sometimes I can have it plain, sometimes I need BBQ to get it down.

Wendy's - many people like the chili.

Panera bread (sit down fast food) - I like the turkey chili or the black bean Soup

Chipotle - I get a single taco, chicken, mild salsa, black Beans, sour cream, cheese... Then I skip the shell. It's only $2.47.

I just took a road trip and found the best thing for me was lunch meat.

I love almonds and keep the 100 cal packs in my glove compartment. And I use the 100 cal Greek yogurts as well, if you have a little cooler in the car. Honestly I would just take whatever you usually eat -- some chili or beef stew? If the family has to have junk food (ew, gross) you could use that time to take laps around the parking lot and visit the rest room. Your joints will thank you!

@@bluetigereyes - I suggest to try different nuts before the trip. Almonds (at least pre-band) gives me intestinal discomfort and gas. I do my best to limit them. If you're stuck in a car ride, that might not be the time to figure that out

I've heard my brother in law mention the same thing so it might be somewhat common.
