5 Healthy Food Tips for Travelers

Here are the rest of Sarah’s Healthy Food Tips for Travelers:

3. Pack foods that are easy to eat.
Sometimes I like to take a wrap with me because I can roll it up in a piece of parchment, which prevents dripping. Oranges and grapefruits are a bad call because they often require a hand washing. Also, don’t take foods that require knives as you can’t bring anything sharp in your carry-on, and you may have to wait for the food cart to come around before you can get your hands on utensils.

4. Be considerate. No one wants to sit beside Mrs. Garlic n’ Onions. Smelly cheeses, curry, and cooked cruciferous vegetables can stink up an entire plane with the flip of a Tupperware lid. … If you know that you’re about to drop a stinky food bomb, be thoughtful and eat when everyone else is so at least your smells are covered up by everyone else’s meal.

5. Avoid liquids. This is a no-brainer these days… Sometimes I get my hummus through one airport but I’ll be forced to toss it at the next one… If all else fails, playing dumb, smiling ever-so-sweetly and begging are seriously effective tactics.
