Thought I'd change things up a little bit here. What are those 1 or 2 particular food items you MUST have with you on any camping/overlanding trip you take? And I am not referring to the essentials, just some quirky snack food or comfort food you bring with you.

Mine are Sour Cream & Onion Pringles, Hickory Farms summer sausage and smoked cheese ball.

Pringles! They don’t get crushed because they’re in the can. Salty, crunchy, satisfying.

Herdez salsa cans. They're small enough that you can pop one open and go through the whole thing quickly, plus makes for easy packing. And since they're in an aluminum can instead of glass or plastic they can be tossed anywhere you have room.

I didn't realize Herdez was available in cans. What size are they?

Funny, I was first introduced to it when I was a kid down in Mexico, most salsa came in a can. They're 7oz and I've seen them at most grocery stores. Usually like $0.80ea.

Buffalo Trace bourbon and pistachio nuts. Pairs well with sunsets.

I store the bourbon in Stillhouse whiskey metal cans so I don't have to worry about glass, plus the Stillhouse cans pack well in my kitchen setup. Pistachio nuts are stored in snack size ziplock bags which are stored in a bigger zip log bag.That keeps them fresher, and keeps me from eating all the nuts on one go.

Honorary mention goes to dehydrated salsa mix. That either goes with canned crushed tomatoes to make salsa, or sour cream to make dip.
