Packing for Event rides ~ Peanut Allergy

[Eaglewalker]

Anyone else as challenged as me?

Oh sister, if your only food problems are what you list, I am far more challenged than you! I am lactose-intolerant and fructose-intolerant; allergic to sucrose, soy, milk protein, and most nuts; don't have the enzymes to digest glutinous starches or anything grassy; sensitive to acids...

So no fruits, nuts, breads, tofu, salads, pasta, candy, dairy -- and trying hard to stay vegetarian -- I'm pretty well limited to beans, eggs, and cooked vegetables (and fish when I get desperate).

Try baked beans. Bush's makes a vegetarian version. If you can eat bread, you can make a bean-spread sandwich. Beans are excellent fuel. I carry little single-size servings of them whenever I travel, because I have to assume there will be nothing in the airports that I can eat.
