Kinda like a power bar but they actually taste good. I like the peanutbutter/chocholate chip bars myself. 100 calories per bar, they fill you up and don't have any bad crap in them.

Yeah, one of the fun things about the job is finding local restaurants and brews that are worth going to. I don't spend a ton on a trip. I might spend $50 on a 4 day at most if I have a few beers. Usually it's more like $8-10 a day. I'm careful about what I eat on the road for the most par (with the exception of the previously mentioned gyros) and make meals count because you don't always know when you're going to have time to sit down and eat again. I've actually lost weight since I finished IOE.

Ok with all the serious posts going on, here's one for fun. What is your favorite stuff to pack (food non-perishable) to eat while on overnights?



Why don't you eat at a restaurant like normal people do while on the road?

I eat my whole per diem check. That is what it is for.



Our $49.20 per day domestic per diem allows us to go out and eat at nice restaurants anytime we desire. That's what per diem is for. It's not to be considered as income and saved as such.

You can order the biscoff from www.biscoff.com... and the ones with chocolate on them are also fantastic!
