Snack Packing Tips for Travel
Whether you’re gearing up for a road trip, plane travel, or just a long day on-the-go, packing snacks that will stand up to your busy schedule is practically an artform. Here are a few go-to tips:
- Choose a sturdy storage container that won’t smush or collapse in on your munchies.
- Be sure to include protein to stay fueled (either protein bars or jerky are good options).
- Opt for snacks that don’t require refrigeration and aren’t terribly fragile (like chips or crumbly cookies).
- Include hand sanitizer with your snacks so clean your hands before you satisfy your hunger.
