Organic soy milk and oatmeal. Cheep, very healthy, stores forever. The
soy aint milk so dont whine. COnsider it a tasty drink with a year
shelf life.

Cuscus. Not the **** in a box. Get plain bulk grain. It looks like
cornmeal. Add warm water and anything else. Very tasty. And the fastest
cooking grain Ive found. That is, just add hot water and let sit
covered.

Pan bread. Mix water and whole wheat flower. Maybe a llittle salt.
Basically make a pan cake and fry it in olive oil. Ummmm. Got cheep
tasty bread. Of course you should add spices and maybe a little
parmisan cheese on top. I think ya got focata then.

Cabage, onions, carrots, beets etc. If yoiur in that part of the world.
They last forever if hung........ maybe 3 weeks in the tropics. Then ya
got vegi soup.

Pickled fish?
Pickled eggs?
Pickled pickles? and other veggies............. I wouldnot go too far.
You might end up with kimchi.

Corn tortillas. They never rot. I wonder why?!?!?
Can of chicken breast
Spice well. Bada Bing yas got tacos.

lots of fruits

SEA VEGTABLES FOOL ! Its only called sea-weed by us. Every one else
considers that stuff that goes floating by a free lunch. There are
several books on gathering and preparing sea vegies of the worlde. For
example, That green stuff that wraps Shushi is called Nori by us and
sp. Ulva Ulva by the marine botanist and lunch by everyone else.

lentals soften fastest of all the dried beans. Soup them, mash them for
a paste on your pan bread, sprout them for fresh greens.
Wow....... grain and legume a complimentary combination.
Read that old book titled, "Diet for a Small Planet" Excellent advice.

Once you get traveling you'll see how the rest of the world
lives............ sleep on the floor, either use hands or sticks to
eat, and no refrigeration. It aint rocket science, its called poverty.

Oh, just eat less. Youll lose weight and be healthier. Ever calclate
you BMI? Bleive me we can ALL eat less and be healthier.

Dude, by your question I get the feeling ya havnt cooked much for
yourself. How many times a week do you eat out or open a can or a box
and call it a meal? You may need to learn how to cook. If it comes in a
box or can it ainit cookin.

I dint metion air dried fish or even eating your fish RAW for fear of
getting all the it aint safe fish wimps and haters.

have fun. be adaptable. live longer cheeper.
