couple of extra tips not mentioned: you can bring pre-cooked fish & chicken envelopes (instead of the canned variety) which has less trash to pack out & no cooking required. "tasty bites" brand of indian food is ez to re-heat at camp on a dashboard or in boiling water. a parabolic solar oven placed on a dashboard is hot enough to bake cookies, etc.
This is so helpful. I'm thinking of going, my first year, had no idea how to deal with kitchen and food. Now I feel like I can put it together. Great advice. Thank you!
i've found that vodka tonics and cheese and crackers are sufficient. if your lucky you will smell the magical meat candy cooking from camps with "kitchens" and you can just start screaming "bacon, bacon! i smell bacon! please, who has the bacon?!!!" and sparkly bacon fairies appear. a quick hand job later, everybody's happy! i'm kidding. a harmless gentle spanking will generally work.
Dry Ice: It doesn't work if you throw it in the cooler: it tries to keep the cooler extremely cold, so it evaporates extremely fast. Solution: Wrap the dry ice in insulation before you put it in each cooler. Dry ice in contact with water will freeze it!
just bring canned meals...you can cook in the can, or eat it cold, just wash your spoon and pack up the can...hell you can make great art out of tin cans
