Road Trip Munchies

[KTMster]

The thread "Road Trip Music" made me think about munchies too, so here it is:

What is your favorite road trip munchie?

Mine is mesquite-smoked beef jerky! :confused: :confused:

Are you guys already trying to mark a few things off that Reno trip checklist?:D

I've gotta say, Pringles (although the ones in the bottom half of the can are quite difficult to get to when driving) and Gatorade. Coke or coffee if I'm getting tired.

If you drive through a small town in Texas you might know what an Allsup's is. They make these fried burritos that are awsome when they are hot. They are realy bad for you, but if I see a fresh batch all nice an hot I just have to have one. Some people call them "gut granades" or "belly busters". Other than that I just take water and friut.

Road mix- Kinda like the anti trail mix (bark and twig stuff) that those goofy health conscious people eat
Chex cereal, goldfish crackers, nuts, M&M's, and Pretzels

Hahaha Man my truck is a mess with sunflower seeds. Ever since I quit smoking I've been hooked on them. 1 out of 3 gets blown back in the truck when I spit em out. Going to Fl. next week, I'll have to bring about 10 lbs of them:)

Definitely sunflower seeds. I also take Dorritos, Slim Jims, and for the sweet tooth some Crunch-n-Munch. To drink, I can always count on Mountain Dews to keep me awake on the long drives.:scream:

 

[buffmaster]

HASH BROWNIES!:eek:

 

[70 marlin]

Bean dip, corn chips & trail mix

also your favorite drink, I drive so it's coffee :eek:

 

[02cr250r]

mmmmmmm hash brownies are good. i love bugals(sp) and ginger ale are a good combponation.

 

[JuliusPleaser]

If I'm taking an extended road trip, I always take a gallon of Milo's sweet tea (made with honey!).

And while I ain't no Volvo drivin', granola munchin', Birkenstock flauntin' greenie, I do like trail mix. I prefer the dried fruit kind, but the Planter's nut/M&M combo is pretty good too.

I used to keep a big chunk o' cow in the back seat, and I would just saw off a big hunk every 100 miles or so. mmmmMMMM! Nothin' says "healthy" like gnawing on a big ol' slab of beef.

Bean Dip, Salsa & tortilla chips - with lots o water and a coke now & again.

We take turns driving!

I won't ride with anyone that eats been dip on a road trip! Two exits, no waiting!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Just wear some Depends, that way you don't need a poop break!:uh:

Danman,

You just brought back some memories of home. I used to live in Brownfield! I miss those fried Allsup's burritos! Can't find a good substitute down here Louisiana. Next favorite on the list is beef jerky and a Big Red or a Dr Pepper.

 

[bbbom]

Relax Elkman! After 15 years in Phoenix, NM and NV, I can handle my beandip.

Both of my kids even love Salsa, guess it was all the mexican food I devoured when I was pregnant!!!:D

Right on brutha!! ;)

Depends on who I'm driving with. If I feel like torturing my fellow roadtripers like Farmer John and Billywho or AJ and Kiwi, I'll down multiple Mountain Dews, cappuccinos and a bag of smarties then incessantly prattle on in a high pitched whine until I get the spins, laugh myself silly and pass out. ;)

As much as I hate to say it……….. beef jerky is usually the road trip snack of choice.

 

[angry jim]

I have a friend who makes his own deer jerky and it's awsome. That and a big can of RockStar and you're good to go.

Cow Killer!!! ;)

Yup beef jerky and the DEW are good staples, but ya can't forget the hot 'n spicy PORK RINDS. The greasy kind made by the local tortilla company. Mmmmm.

Oh yeah, and out this way we call them fried burritos, "Chimichangas." A gut granade indeed!

 

[rickyd]

Mix a can of RedBull and a can of DEW and hold on!!:eek:

Okay, now I feel ill......... :uh:

 

[ADS]

I try to discourage eating in my Cherokee. I usually dip the whole way (Timberwolf or Skoal wintergreen), drinks are usually orange Gatorade or water. The empty bottles are great for spitting:)

 

[KTMster]

Almost forgot the tasty beverage to wash down the munchies with...:scream:...Barq's Rootbeer, Dr. Pepper, and of course the all-time drive favorite, coffee--STRONG coffee...the crunchier the better! :)

 

[a454elk]

YOU may be able to handle your bean dip bbbom, the question is, can your passengers handle it! :scream:

I actually enjoy a nice fillet mignon and a baked potato, and maybe a cesear salad on the side! :silly:
