TRAVEL TIP OF THE DAY - TAKE SNACKS - 2.23.2017 TRAVEL TIPS

We highly recommend taking snacks!

There are several reason we recommend packing snacks for your trip.  

- Airport food is expensive

Why spend an absorbent amount for a snack at the airport.  A candy bar or bag of chips can be 3 or more times the normal price.  Since you cannot take liquids through airport security you will already be forced to pay a high price for something to drink.

- You might not like the airline food

The airline food is usually tolerable but it is still nice to have snacks you know you will love.  Plus you might get hungry in-between airline meals.  That's if you are even lucky enough to get a meal.

- Food differs overseas

There are certain things we find hard to get in other countries.  In Europe they have Paprika chips instead of BBQ chips.  In China we could get snickers but they were very costly.  We do love Cadbury chocolate in Ireland and England and always bring some back.  In multiple countries we have found ketchup to be very different from ours.  We actually take a couple travel size bottles with us.

Just remember certain foods are not allowed through customs.  (certain types of meats, fruits, nuts, eggs, and fish) Check before you go or consume them on the plane.
