Now don't get me wrong - granola bars, nuts, beef jerky... you should bring plenty of SNACKS to keep you tied over for "The Main Course"... we usually end up eating two "Quick Meals" and two "Snacks" per day, and doing only one (or on a really long trip, two) "Sit-Down Meals" per trip. I plan a lot of our trip around what foods I intend to eat :)
