You can get prepackaged meals that you can eat after submerging the packet in hot water for a few minutes. Hot water is easily available in most place, even more so if you carry a flask.
Protein bars are filling and quite nice to eat. Dried fruits like apricots or dates are also a nice calorie rich option. Bread and jam/pb are the usual travel staples. Milk powder and cornflakes/cereal is also an option, but not one of my favourites.
You can also carry out forms of bread like pretzels, bagels or focaccia which will last for a few days or even more.
Don’t forget that experiencing local food is part of any travel experience :) you’re not going to travel to Iceland to just eat in the future. So it might be a good idea to explore local supermarkets for some local fruits, bread, snacks and so on. Hopefully some Icelandic person will chime in with more suggestions.
Hope you have a good trip :) I know the struggle! I’m a vegetarian and often it’s very hard for me to find dishes I can eat in many countries. I have shifted towards renting Airbnbs with kitchen and making rice or pasta with local veggies for most of my meals for this reason.
I don’t have any good suggestions, but I have two questions that might be relevant to you or to other people who do have ideas.
Will you be visiting a grocery store in Iceland to get your ingredients? Or will you be packing them in your luggage on the flight over?
If they are in your luggage, will there be any customs tomfoolery if you’re bringing lots of food with you? (I have never flown with lots of food in my luggage; I have no idea if this is even a concern, but wanted to bring the question up in case it is.)
It doesn’t seem likely–but you never know, which is why I thought raising the question might be useful. As you said, you’re not allowed to import lots of stuff…which, if you poured all your food money into food you’re bringing with you, would be devastating to find out at the last moment. Esp. if you were on a tight budget to begin with.
Generally flying with lots of food into a foreign country is a big no no. Packaged snacks are fine but anything that could be considered an agricultural product should be avoided.
Definitely the Avatar movie, I mean the blue ones not TLA. I watched it when it came out, watched it several times with my family and friends. Lastly I watched it at IMAX, was a fantastic experience. Sadly second movie did not live up to my expectations.
I very highly recommend the republic commando series by Karen Traviss. It is so well written and gives a lot of context to clones in general and commandos. Honestly some of my favorite books ever. The game is fantastic too of course.
Beans, lentils and rice are highly nutritious, can all be eaten cold or at room temperature and won’t spoil if you make them the day before and keep them in a closed Tupperware.
Like a lot of people are saying, if reddit comes up in a search result, I’m clicking it. You know that’s your best shot at finding the answer you’re looking for.
But opening the app? Scrolling and socializing? I checked my comment history just now, and since joining Lemmy on July 1st, I have commented 5 reddit comments; 1 of them was a reply to someone replying to me. 4 of them were specifically about ActivityPub social networks.
In that same thirteen days, I left 33 comments on Lemmy.
That’s so easy to do. I got perma banned because I commented “at least you’re not reddited” on a post where op said they were ok being called r-word because of their disability.
Couscous. It can be "cooked" in cold water if necessary. It also goes well with most things so if you find something you can afford, perhaps you can add it.
