Backpacking food


When thinking about backpacking wherever you decide to go, taking along essential backpacking food is always an issue. While many backpackers try to keep their loads and backpacks as light as possible, there are many necessary backpacking food equipment, ingredients, and supplies that you must take along in order to eat on the way. While backpacking can often be a fun adventure, it takes careful planning and consideration when trying to figure out how you are going to juggle your backpack, sleeping bag, as well as backpacking food.



To get started planning which types of backpacking food that you're going to take along, you first need to consider how much you're going to eat. A backpacker must make room and time for breakfast, lunch, and dinner each day. For breakfast, some of the suggested types of backpacking food include instant oatmeal or oats that you can quickly boil over a pot of water, as well as small cans of fruit. Even though backpacking food, such as fruit cans, can add a large weight to your load, there are many types of mini-sized plastic packages of fruit like peaches or mandarin oranges.


The next type of backpacking food that you should consider is lunch. Lunch is usually eaten around mid-day or whenever the backpacker has planned out his schedule. For these types of backpacking food you should probably have something a little more substantial than breakfast, but enough so that you'll get your fill. A couple good backpacking foods include pre-packaged tuna meals that often include crackers to spread the tuna on. These are not terribly heavy, either, so you'll have no trouble fitting in your backpack. A couple other suggestions for backpacking food for lunch is summer sausage that comes pre-sliced. If you have bread then you can eat the sausage on that, but you can also eat it right out of the package, too!



Last but not least, the types of backpacking food that you should include for dinner consist of things like cans of turkey or chicken soup, instant rice, chili powder, as well as many different types of cheeses. These are all common types of backpacking food that backpackers have for dinner. There are a plethora of backpacking recipes that you can use to combine all of these foods into great and delicious meals! Another suggestion for dinner, though, would be corn on the cob. Not only is it easy and simple to pack, but it's also light and easy to carry! All in all, there are many types of backpacking foods that one can carry on the way and many of them can be turned into great meals for your backpacking trip!
