Guest guest Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 I agree! About the only time of year I find myself depending on dehydrated foods at all is when we go for our annual two week camping trip every September; we go to the upper peninsula of Michigan, on Lake Superior, and keeping fruit from spoiliing is a problem. So I depend on apples, whatever citrus is available, and every three or four days lay in a supply of bananas. Celery is about the only green that keeps well under our circumstances (lettuces just don't seem to appreciate the cooler life...), and for the days we spend hiking, I use dehydrated bananas, pineapple, cherries, etc. (with some celery along for the ride, just to help the teeth out after eating the dried fruit). Dates travel very well... One bonus of being up there in early autumn is finding wide swatches of ripe wild blueberries....talk about heaven!

If you are camping by a running stream, then the water is typically nice and cool. Get some of waterproof bags, perhaps the type used in river rafting, and store your perishable foods in the bags. Then anchor them to the land and place them in the water. Should keep things nice and cool!!! And should work better than a refrigerator, since almost no dehydration occurs this way.
