Hi Everyone,
I've got a question that maybe you can help me with.  I have to start a file
on what I call: "traveling food".  Food that can be kept in a cooler and
eaten about 6-8 hrs later.

I've packed various foods for eating 3-4 hours later but never a whole day
later.  I usually pack the cooler with those blue frozeen plastic thingies.
They are still half frozen by the end of the day but is that cold enough to
keep the food from going bad?

Also, are there certain foods I should stay away from for long term
picnic-packing?  And is there a special file in the florigium that deals with
long term food packing. (I would be dealing with a Coleman cooler , some blue
ice packs and the back seat of a car.

Thanks for your imput.
Phillipa
