Re: [RC] Keeping food cold and safe to eat - sreidStop by a local truck stop and look for a cooler that runs off 12V. You might need to save up for it, but they are good. They work great if you have a good truck battery.

I have tried ice, but of course, I have to bring it from home, and it usually melted within 12 hours - then I just have a cooler full of cold water. That still works for drinks but some plastic food containers and packagings are not waterproof! Soggy food is gross. I also have some ice paks, but they are not all that cold or get warm fast. I would love to bring tuna sandwiches, but putting mayo in anything that I can't put in a fridge scares me a little. I had food poisoning once from mayo going bad and it was hell! Any ideas (So the food stays cold until Sunday, not just Saturday morning!)? I am on the beginner low- budget system, so I sleep in a tent and sleeping bag and only have a cooler to work with.
