I don’t always plan ahead for eating on the road. When I do, I’m rewarded, financially and health wise. Often, during the Wanderslut 1996 Road Trip, I would not plan in advance and be at the mercy of the “food stores” attached to gas stations.

We know at least a couple of things about these stores: 1) they are expensive and 2) they have virtually no fresh food save a bunch of unripe green bananas or heavily waxed apples on the checkout counter. So, do yourself a favor and take some time to plan ahead.

Here’s an ideal list for what I put in my road trip cooler.

My Ideal List

• Water — usually small plastic bottles since they fit better. I always buy whatever the store’s generic brand is. It hasn’t killed me yet.
• Baby carrots or pre-cut carrots. I get these pre-washed, pre-cut, whatever the store has. I’m all about making it easier on myself to be healthy – so no, I never buy regular carrots and wash them and cut them up myself. ‘Cause I’m too lazy for that.
• Hummus — for me, the ideal dip. For the carrots, but it works for just about anything. Pureed chick pea (garbanzo) and sesame seed mixture, high in flavor, relatively low in calories (and much lower than many salty oily things you could dip your food into).
• Cut Up Fruit – When driving, it’s a lot easier to eat small bites you can grab with one hand and pop in your mouth. I choose things like apple slices, melon chunks, grapes, orange wedges (without the rind). Also, if it’s just the edible portion of the fruit, there’s no detritus left over that you to have to get rid of.
• Cheese Sticks — I get the kind you can buy in grocery or even places like Starbucks – mozzarellas sticks, or the red Babybel bites. The cheese means there’s some protein to go along with the fat, and I find that they satisfy a hunger craving quite effectively.
• Peanut butter — to put on bread, into sandwiches, or to eat on apple slices. High in fat and protein, definitely satisfies my cravings. I cannot live without peanut butter.

Something More Substantial for a Proper Meal

• Baguette/baguette sandwiches: sometimes just the bread itself, which is easy to tear into hunks. Also, great for making sandwiches — peanut butter, or cheese, with a little arugula or basil, tomato slices, a dollop of mayo and dijon. I often make a few sandwiches in advance and put them in baggies. Then I know I have a lunch or dinner and won’t need to buy bad expensive, unhealthy “food” on the road.

• Granola — Also something you can eat dry or as a cereal with some kind of liquid. Although eating handfuls of granola while driving will just mess up your car seat and floor (I know from experience).
• Almond Milk — I like the chocolate kind. It comes in rectangular cartons which are perfect for cooler storage. Use as an alternative beverage for water and for the aforementioned granola bowl.

Better Than Chips and Soda

• Bananas — ok, so I broke my own rule for no fruit detritus. Yes, you are left with a banana peel. But it’s really something easy to eat while driving.
• Energy bars – in an emergency — or not. They’re maybe healthier than regular chocolate candy bars, maybe not — but having a few on hand in the car is good when you need a handy snack. Also good to have these in general in case of an emergency or as in my case sometimes when I exercise, a hypoglycemic episode where I need some carbs quickly.
