Try engine cooking.

It sounds crazy, but we tried this on the spring break drive down to Florida one year with burgers & dogs. All you need is some foil and a place on your engine that will hold the food in place in the event of a pothole. Make sure you seal the foil tight, engines can be dirty.

How did the food taste?

Make pasta. It can be surprisingly easy to get a decent pesto, even in the US. (I say "even" because I lived in Italy for some years and, believe me, it's not the same).

I believe nobody has mentioned boiling sausages. That's usually the way we prepare sausages at my home, sometimes we grill. Then put them in buns and some ketchup and mustard and you're good to go.

Boiled sausages? Never tried... any difference between that and grilling or frying?

The dogs were pretty good, the burgers were kinda dry.

Organic milk. That does not need refrigeration.

Maybe; the only thing I'm familiar with is backpacking/camping meals that are preparted that way,
but they aren't cheap ($6-7 USD per), and I suspect you're
thinking of something less expensive.

Much less expensive, only a few euros. I guess the low price will affect the taste though...

I don't recommend putting hot water in a plastic bag. It'll melt, if it's the wrong kind of plastic.
Get the ones that come in styrafoam cups. Those won't melt, and they make a convienent place to eat them out of.

The bags I was talking about actually were made for pooring hot water in it. Of course you should always use common sense and don't poor the water in while holding the bag over your lap.

I guess you're talking about hotdog sausages here, we do this too in the Netherlands, these sausages really only need to be heated to eat. Hadn't thought about that.

Potatoes are the ultimate food. Easy to make, tasty, healthy, cheap. All you need is boiling water.

if you need to ask....

boiled is wetter, grilled has smoky flavours

Oh yes, it tastes quite different. It is a very common way to prepare sausages in Norway. But I must add, there are sausages and then there is sausages, we don't boil the little breakfast sausages you Americans eat, they are different sausages, or would you call them hot dogs? I don't know, all I can say is that it depends on the sausage.

This cannot be true, or there's one hell of a conspiracy between the cattlemen and the frig makers

Well It might spoil after a time, but it stays good much better than regular milk. It'll be good for a few days at least.

There is however, also a difference in taste.

 

[Homie]

There is milk that does not require refrigeration and can stay "good" for weeks. It is still milk, but processed differently I assume. It is especially popular in tropical areas where it is warm, in Norway we don't even have it. Of course, it does not taste as good as regular milk.

Parmalat? I wouldn't touch it...always tasted off to me when it was given out in my high school (and surprisingly close to the expiration date also).

Personally, I'd use the kettle to make myself a nice cup of tea with some Twinings teabags I would have thoughtfully brought from Britain, and then, after sipping the brew, I'd go off to the nearest expensive foreign restaurant.

Organic Milk? Why should be stay fresh longer. I have no idea how this can be, but logic tells me that I have misunderstood something. Powedered milk or egg stays usable for a loong time,
