On The Road

What are your favorite road trip munchies? Do you tend to eat differently on a road trip than at home?

I had a revelation last weekend on my short road trip to Nevada. At home I eat well. I don’t have an unlimited income but I do tend to spend my money on good food rather than things. So I try and eat lots of yummy organic veggies and low-or no-fat foods.

Imagine my surprise when I gleefully found a Dairy Queen during my weekend in Reno! A chocolate shake and french fries. Lordy was that heaven. Yeah, yeah, I had the organic grapes and tortilla chips, soy milk and a bag of cashews, along with bottled water in the car. But holy cow I went ape over that shake and fries combo. And as any junk food junkie knows, the whole idea is to dip the fries into that shake!
