I’m going from Hong Kong to Iceland next month. I’ve read that everything there, including food, are quite expensive. So my wife and I have been researching on how to prepare meal or snack that we can eat during the day instead of going to restaurant.
However, given we will travel by day tours, I don’t think fire or microwave will be readily available during the tours. We can only prepare the meal the day before or in the morning and bring with us in the tours.
We’ve read that peanut butter/honey with bread, dried fruit and nuts are some good options. Overnight oatmeal may be great but I’m not sure we can keep them cool enough throughout the day and if not, whether this will cause food spoilage.
Are there any other recommendations to have more variety? Thank you!
I don’t have any good suggestions, but I have two questions that might be relevant to you or to other people who do have ideas.
I don’t think he is talking about importing it. 😅
You’re not allowed to for a bunch of stuff anyway.
It doesn’t seem likely–but you never know, which is why I thought raising the question might be useful. As you said, you’re not allowed to import lots of stuff…which, if you poured all your food money into food you’re bringing with you, would be devastating to find out at the last moment. Esp. if you were on a tight budget to begin with.
I will bring some food like nuts and some will be brought in grocery storea/supermarkets there.
What do you mean by customs tomfoolery?
Generally flying with lots of food into a foreign country is a big no no. Packaged snacks are fine but anything that could be considered an agricultural product should be avoided.
