I'm planning my first thru hike for next year and would like to simply buy food along the way and not have to hassle with drop boxes pf pre-made dehydrated meals (yuck!). Reading the forums, it seems like most thru hikers use drop boxes/dehydrated meals for a lot of their food. How feasible is it to rely on local markets etc...? Am I setting myself up for eating mostly junk food? I am willing to take on a little extra pack weight for a few fresh vegetables and other fresh food that will keep for a few days.
