Food Ideas for Winter Car Kit / GHB

How about individual peanut butter packets? That's another popular kid-food my wife packs, and is easier/less messy to eat with the squeeze packs... The Justin's brand are gluten-free and all natural which is important to our kids, but probably means they don't keep as long. Since we use/pack these in lunches already, would be easy for us to rotate them into a car pack.

What jerky do you use? What's the longest you've kept it in the car and still eaten it?

I can see how your scenario is different than mine, but those are expensive. I am pretty cheap .

Yeah I didn't even look at the prices that I linked - it's just easier to link to amazon because it's so fast to find stuff. I think they are usually about 25c/pack local though.

For us it's how everything is stored.If you rotate your food stuffs there should no safety issues. Are the items you have able to take extreme / sustained temp swings. Jerky's great unless the sun is on it, same for canned meats bottled drinks etc. A few caprisuns (since they store easy) in a freeze they have room to expand in those foil pouches. Sunflower seeds, i like the peanut butter packet idea, maybe some other condiment pkgs, like sugar, salt. The items depend on how far you are from home daily. We're local, maybe 1-2 miles from the homestead.
