[Sca-cooks] camping, was help!oop

[Kirsten Houseknecht]

also it pays to get one of those really good coolers!
i got one that says "keeps ice for five days at 90 degrees" and they mean
it!
it also helps to have your food frozen hard as a rock prior to camping...
vacuum sealed frozen food stays really fresh a lot longer than usual.. my
frozen chicken survived almost to the end of Pennsic (albeit thawed.. it was
still good)
