    Advice - don't take just the necessities to survive.

    By the end of the week... the thought of eating more canned fruit or veggies was nauseating. We bought ice everyday, so there were many chilled items that we could have brought that would have stayed fresh much longer than I originally expected.

    Here is the beginning of my shopping list for this year based on helpful posts I have read here and the knowledge I have gained from a rough first year:

    Turkey Jerky
    Beef Jerky
    Lentil Soup - made beforehand, lentil soup will stay good under minimal refrigeration
    Cup o noodles - for salt needs
    Chips and salsa - someone at camp had this last year... soooo good
    Quesadillas –canned crab meat, havarti
    Hummus
    Dashboard nachos
    Tasty bites
    Boxed wine - equivalent of 4 bottles of wine.. less trash, - Does anyone know of a decent brand that does boxed wine?
    Steak from Costco - frozen pre marinated and fabulous
    Instant mashed potatoes
    Pre-made spaghetti and garlic bread, freeze before we leave
    Bacon - because i got none last year
    Pancake mix or eggs - to make early in the week

    anyway... happy hunting.

      I just wanted to say i am fascinated and overjoyed at the bacon phenomenon at burning man. I have never brought any myself, and yet i have never gone a year without enjoying it's savory crunch, so thank you too all of you who feed me bacon every year.

      Last year we were gifted watermelon and bacon at once from either side of the street. it was fabulous!!
