Foods For Camping, No Cooking, No Refrigeration!
As I sit here, I ask myself, do I write an article or a list? Do I list the names or just write an in-depth story about camping foods? Or can I make my list into an article. I will do both and all, so here we go. I have been camping many times over the past few years. And though I do not consider myself a camping expert, I do feel that I have some great helpful hints for campers in the areas of food, hiking, putting up tents, selecting and purchasing tents and other ideas. So, I will write a series of articles about camping, camping helpful hints, and other related items connected to camping, backpacking, hiking, and campfires, and the rest. This article that I write here at this moment is totally dedicated to foods. However, the article is geared to foods that you can take camping when you do not want to start fires, make campfires, or lug any cooking equipment. Yes, you can camp out without the fire and without the charcoal and without finding firewood. That does make camping easier for everyone and it lightens your pack. The reason your pack is lighter is because each day as you eat, you have less in your pack, and you are not carrying matches, starter fluid, charcoal or other related items. So now that I have explained myself, here is my list:
Foods for a Fire-free camping excursion:
Grains:
Nuts, rice cakes, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, already-popped popcorn, melba toast, dry cereals,
saltine, ritz or other crackers, corn nuts, potato sticks in cans, all sorts of chips, and crackers
Cans:
tuna, canned meat such as vienna sausages --these are delicious when cold or you can set them out in the sun for a while,
garbanza beans, sliced potatos, peas
Other:
any variety of breads or crackers, rice cakes, mini-rice cakes, raisens, prunes, dried fruits,
apple dippers, health food crackers and snacks
dried fruit rolls or fruit wraps
peanut butter and jelly, sandwiches
laughing cow cheese, bon bell cheese --neither of these need refrigeration or cooking
grated cheeses by the chunk or grated
candies, chocolate,
juices or milks in the parma packs ; none of these need refrigeration
pickles, all sorts of pickles
Others:
fresh fruits and vegetables such as carrots, apples, oranges, pea pods, grapefruits, watermelons, melons, pears, chinese apples, and pomegranates, and more
Loaves of Italian bread, sliced breads, RICE (see explanation below)
Anything else you have that does not need refrigeration or cooking
There is your list. You can pack any and all of that and avoid cooking and avoid needing ice or refrigeration. Now for the rice. Purchase minute rice. You can soak minute rice in water out in the sun and have nice hot rice for your meal. It works, try it. Put the rice in a plastic clear container with some warm water. Leave it out in the sun, and you will have hot cooked rice. You can even just put it in water and you do not even need the sun , as long as it is minute rice.
Hope this helps you. Write with your own suggestions; I would love to hear them.

Food and Religion
For many people, religion is one thing and day to day life is another but for me, it is all so closely connected. I would say that it is because of my religion that I am a vegetarian. It was quite interesting to read that Hinduism did not consider it wrong to eat meat while it did specify what kind of meat can be consumed. However, as Jainism and Buddhism gained popularity, it is said that Hinduism started promoting vegetarianism. I have not read the scriptures myself so ratify this but I am glad my religion made me a vegetarian. I was quite shocked to learn that carnivorous animals have a smaller intestine than humans and that forces the meat to stay in our intestine longer leading to some diseases including cancer. I realised this is not the only aspect of food that Hinduism touches upon.
According to Hinduism, one should eat to live and the purpose of life is to attain salvation i.e. to seek God. Food is generally categorised into three types: Sattvic food which is said to increase purity, longevity, health and taste; Rajasic food that is bitter, salty, sour, hot and burning and supposed to give unhappiness and diseases; Tamasic food that is supposed to be foul smelling, dry, devoid of juices and indigestible. It is said that offering food to God before eating helps us avoid the negative effects of the type of food we eat. At this point, I would also like to mention that there is a practise, especially among Brahmins to clean the place, sprinkle some water all around the plate to cleanse the food and also drink some water and then offer the water to the five vital breath (prana, apana, vyana, udana, samanaya) and finally to Brahman seated in the heart. While cleaning the place ensures hygiene, having some water clears the throat and doing this whole ritual while chanting mantras in my opinion, will help kerb any desire to overeat. I say so because doing these rituals after being served the food helps you avoid hogging. Imagine you seeing a plateful of yummy food while your stomach is rumbling, we would quite naturally tend to stuff as much as possible into our wee tummy. On the other hand if you can control that desire and complete the ritual, it certainly gives you the mental power to control how much you eat.
It is not just around the food itself that there are some rules and restrictions but also around how it is prepared. I am not sure which of the Hindu scriptures have these prescribed but I was always brought up practising a few things. Always cook food only after taking a shower, wearing washed and dried cloth, never leave hair lose while cooking (and usually otherwise too) are a few of them. They all pertain to hygiene and cleanliness.
The religion also suggests abstinence from food or certain food types. This is usually done during a fast or vrat, a religious vow. Fasts vary in practise but there are some common fasts in Hinduism. People tend to fast on the eleventh day of new moon (ekadashi) and depending on the deity they pray to, they will fast on different days of the week. Some fasts may not be complete abstinence from food but only from some food types. On Fridays, some avoid anything sour (includes tamarind, citrus, fermented food, tomatoes etc.), on Thursdays, some avoid salt, on Saturdays some avoid rice in the evening. To me, these do not just make sense from a religious stand point but also sound right scientifically. Restriction on food types helps me try many other ingredients (for example, I try to take other grains like wheat or barley etc. instead of rice on specific days) which are actually part of a well balanced diet. In some cases, some restrictions like avoiding salt become part of my detox effort. While modern science has been coming up with many 'latest' findings about the benefits of calorie restriction and balanced diet, to me it all seems like our ancestors knew it all along. Fasting also helps us appreciate how lucky we are to have a meal on our plate and eventually share what we have so the poor could have some as well. I read on a blog about how the blogger does not believe in fasts as she believes it is quite sexist as most of the fasts are to be done by women and I could not help but smile sympathetically. The most important point is that these habits can help us have a balanced diet and healthy weight and life. It is my opinion that as men usually went away for work in those days and women were at home, it was much easier for them to control what they were eating so most fasts were by women. Honestly, I would say gender, no bar.
In ancient times, sanyasis (people who give up material living and seek God) were expected to beg for food. I think this must have been for two reasons, first being they should not have interest in pleasures of eating and focus on God and also because by begging for food that is important for one's survival, I think one sheds their ego and surrenders.
In essence, we eat to live and it is important that we eat healthy as it is said that the God resides in us and we should keep him happy. Eat well, live long and prosper!
