What kind of food you will buy for a short travel?

When I take trips with my sisters and we drive, I usually will pickup some fresh muffins for the morning. They aren't too messy and everyone loves muffins. I also usually bring licorice, m&m's, ritz bits with cheese and wheat thins. I like to bring a small cooler with water and pop in it too. We always stop for a nice lunch late in the afternoon, so these snacks get us threw. GORP is always a great treat too~ take peanuts or cashews, m&m's and raisons and mix them together in a bowl. The combination is addicting. Have a fun trip!

Usaly bags of snacks or I will take a coller for drinks and fruit and stuff. This reminds me that it has been awhile since I took my sons on a trip.

Foods like cookies, chips, and some peanuts. Those are most likely some easy to carry foods that I get on a short travel. Water in a bottle also good choice to have as you travel on a short trip.

All depends on what kind of trip it is. How long are you going to be gone for? How long of a drive is it? I would say cookies, sandwiches, chips, soda, bottled water anything like that. Anything that is simple and pretty edible for driving as you don't want to make a mess of the car. So messy foods are pretty much out of the question. Get stuff that you would find in a convenient store.
