I like to bring bread, cheese, cooked chicken pieces, Polish sausage chunks, carrot sticks, apples, grapes. I've found that I can pre-bake ham and cheese Hot Pockets and pass them off as pasties, and they taste almost as good cold.
I like lemonade at an event, and usually carry a tankard for it. I need to either get small tankards for my smalls this year, or find a way to conceal sippy cups (when it was bottles, I didn't care as much).

At one day outdoor events, I don't really bring anything but some water. At camping events, I bring normal camping food. Popcorn seeds, granola bars, fruit, carrots, bread, hot dogs, etc. I also like to treat my friends to pistachio bread (which is more like a cake with cinnamon swirls), which I make myself. For drinks, anything that can be mixed with water in a big tub. (ex. iced tea mix, lemonade mix) That way, if other people camping with you forget to bring drinks, there's always a lot to be had. mrgreen

choco meijin What sort of food do you like to take to an outdoor event? Is there some favorite that doesn't need refrigeration or heating? Do you like to just nibble during the day and dine substantially later? Does your group do a potluck? How about drinkables; there is a real hazard of dehydration if you don't get enough liquid. But I hate the way my Pepsi can looks, eew. Any suggestions? Refrigeration is defeated by coolers. Cook everything beforehand and dump it in a cooler. Even milk will keep for a day or two in a cooler.
I tend to nibble before fighting, eat a midsized meal afterward, and nibble again at an after-revel if there is one, or just have dinner when I get home. My group often provides bag lunches, to include gummi snacks, cookies, boiled eggs, fruit, and some kind of breaded thing.
Figure that an average person in mundane life ideally should drink 1 gallon of water per day. Subtract air conditioning, add sun, and add activity. If you're not drinking 1-1/2 or even 2 gallons per day, you are at risk of illness. I myself make carbonated drinks "illegal" at events--they just dehydrate me--but if you drink them, remember two things: everything looks good in a tankard or horn, and if you drink one unit of soda or alcohol, drink two units of water.
