Coming from uk, no chance of me dehydrating and sending parcels on, so just want to buy stuff from stores along the way – could possibly by in bulk at a big supermarket and then send onwards. I have no problem with noodles – cheap, loads of calories, lightweight and just about enough flavour to get me through. Just that I’m not aware of any similarly cheapo meals where you just add boiling water to a base of pasta or rice and add a flavouring sachet. (Pasta/rice/noodles all basically have the same calories and pasta and rice are cheap as anything dried in a supermarket here in UK) Do they sell something like this in USA? Happy to get my fill of fresh fruit and veg in towns and just deal in carbs, nuts and junk (crisps, chocolate, cereal) along the way.
