I’m going to be camping for 4 days at a location without easy access to fire (hence no boiled water). As such, I’m going to be packing a bunch of canned stuff for my daily meals. The place is in England, where we’re expecting a few hot days this week and maybe some rain over the weekend.

However, I have some free time before the trip to cook food. But I’m not sure if there’s any good foods I could bring along that could keep for 3-4 days without a fridge. I guess that crosses out most meat dishes.

Some ideas I had were: falafel, fritters, bread, calzones, pasties. Have you tried taking such foods camping and if so, did they last a few days without spoiling? Are there any other foods you’d recommend? Thank you so much!

    Is there a reason you can’t use a Coleman style camp stove or single burner backpacking stove? Those are standard fair for campgrounds and backcountry.

      Fare*

      Although, certain fairs have also been known to be near-standard fare at campgrounds, here and there.

        Jet boils are not compact. They are awesome, just not great if you are a gram counter. Probably exactly what this guy would want though as it sounds like he is car camping.
