I’m going to be camping for 4 days at a location without easy access to fire (hence no boiled water). As such, I’m going to be packing a bunch of canned stuff for my daily meals. The place is in England, where we’re expecting a few hot days this week and maybe some rain over the weekend.

However, I have some free time before the trip to cook food. But I’m not sure if there’s any good foods I could bring along that could keep for 3-4 days without a fridge. I guess that crosses out most meat dishes.

Some ideas I had were: falafel, fritters, bread, calzones, pasties. Have you tried taking such foods camping and if so, did they last a few days without spoiling? Are there any other foods you’d recommend? Thank you so much!

    Lots of good answers here.

    Another option would be taking MRE-s (meal ready to eat) it’s pre-packaged food designed for soldiers to eat while not having access to a kitchen. It usually has a solution to heat the food and plenty of calories for a full day.

    You can order them on the Internet from military surplus or other places and there is a bunch of flavours to choose from. They also have a long shelf life, don’t need refrigeration, and fit in a small space.
