    Due to this fuckery, my family will literally never by fast food again unless we are traveling.

      Cross-country road trips now have the sandwich fixings stored in a cooler in the car. Pre-make the next day’s sandwich the night before and toss it in the cooler.

      Honestly it’s much nicer sitting at a picnic table at a rest area, which generally has nice views, than going into a restaurant or eating drive-thru in the car.

      At least the pandemic had some silver linings, would not have necessarily thought to do this otherwise.

        Or maybe get creative with your meals because, as someone who grew up with endless long road trips, what you just described are some of the most depressing meals you can get and after a couple days most people will be so sick of cold, sad, sandwiches that they’ll be desperate for ANYTHING else.

        How is trail mix a healthy snack? It’s just some bread-adjacent carbs with extra flavorings. It’s literally the same as any other junk food
