I have created three files from this information and others collected
over the years. It does not yet include any of the wonderful information 
that has been given here in scarcely a wee, but it will shortly.

These files are all in the FOOD section of my SCA Rialto Files:

campfood-msg      (50K)  2/24/97    Non-refrig., period food for camping
events.
food-storage-msg  (45K) 10/11/96    Storing and preserving food in period.

                                      refrigerated food for camping and
Pennsic.

excellent examples and real-life experiences. Thank you.
