Amazon Travel Haul! Travel Essentials to Create a Travel Kitchen in a Bag!

[@joanne2277]

Dish cleaning tip: If you are traveling with dishes and are tight on room for liquids, get a sponge and cut into thirds or quarters. Wet the sponge and put your dish soap on it, suds it up then let it dry. Put the pieces into a zip top bag and when you want to wash a dish/bottle just wet the sponge again and you have a sudsy sponge. You can keep the pieces for another trip, too.

[@TheoryofSimple]

As someone who has a number food allergies. So, it can quite the hassle to find food to eat on trips. I have to pretty have to cook all my meals. This is absolute game changer! I’ll definitely get some of these for my next trip.

[@TheoryofSimple]

Right there with you Tess! All the food at the airport is full of so many things and you never know what chemicals you are eating. So happy you got some good hacks for your next trip❤️🙏😊

[@morpheuszzz662]

Eunice, I appreciated how you explained why you do this, that "it is a comfort thing for me". I am the same way with certain things at home like always having a full pantry and emergency supplies. Even when I was a kid, if we had a tornado watch/warning going on, it was me--the kid--who was bringing the blankets, lanterns, snacks, etc. down to the basement making everything cozy and ready for anything. It has carried over into my adulthood. Thankfully, my family understands and they don't laugh at me. They know to just deal with my fascination with gadgets! :)

[@TheoryofSimple]

We are cut from the same cloth! I have been like this, since I was a child as well. And I don’t know why it is but I’m always wanted to make sure that everyone has everything they need.! That used to bother me when I was younger and people would say things but now it doesn’t bother me at all because I know I’m doing it out of love💕😊

[@lskazalski]

I completely understand this and agree. My parents grew up as farm kids in the 30s & 40s, so full pantries & freezers were a matter of course. Daddy was an Eagle Scout and I was a Girl Scout, so 'be prepared' is pretty much my mantra.

[@TheoryofSimple]

@@lskazalski yes! I look at it like insurance. You don’t want to use it but you’re so glad you have it when you need it.💕😊

[@NothingToNoOneInParticular]

I found my tribe! My Dad was born a farm boy in the Dust owl area, my family stayed. Tough people. Then he was career Military. It was just natural to "put stuff back" for a rainy day. He taught me every thing he did my late brothers, man I hated it at the time (boring as a kid) but it has saved my butter so many times! My parents basement looked like a small grocery store! lol He had a generator but only big enough to run the furnace and freezer oneat a time. He had a huge freezer full of meats that he saved during an ice storm in '96...save $3K worth of meat!

[@rhondalyn100]

What a delightful video! I am a travel neophyte so I would never have thought about cooking/drinking/eating while traveling. This helps me understand how to keep from being totally dependent upon restaurants while traveling. Thank you! PS...I would love to see a series of vids on "How to Travel"...for complete beginners. How to decide where to go, how to book a flight, how to find a hotel or air bnb, how to convert money, how to "wing it" as a solo traveler. I am hopeless when it comes to traveling well. Anything would be useful for me. 🙂

Solo traveling, start domestic, with your own country first. Then learn how to pack, what you need for different weather, and consider international travel later. Pack light.

[@TheoryofSimple]

My first solo trip I ever took was Disney World. Now that may sound crazy as I was over 40 at the time but I had been before and I knew that I always felt safe there. Plus Disney (I don’t know about now) had shuttle service from the airport to your resort, the resorts all have some kind of place to eat and you don’t have to do the rides. You can go for nice walks sit on a bench and people watch etc…. It was a great first solo trip.

I have a storage bin filled with items that I have delivered to my hotel room when I go to Disney. I have some of the items you mentioned, but one thing I have that I love is the Dash egg cooker. I have loved it so much that I bought one to have at home as well. You can do hard boiled, soft boiled, scrambled, and poached eggs in just minutes. There is no guess work as to how long to cook either so they always come out just like you want them to. Super easy cleanup

[@NothingToNoOneInParticular]

I LOVED these! I'm going to have to buy these next month! I love gadgety things of all sorts. If I had all the gadhets I wanted I'd have to live in a warehouse....I solved this by waiting to see them in thrift stores and THEN trying them and if I don't like them I re-donate them. The BEST thing I ever bought was Wolfgang puck mini rice maker in a thrift store. I then ordered them for all my friends, I loved them that much! I love using it for steel cut oats too.

[@TheoryofSimple]

@@NothingToNoOneInParticular I love your idea of getting things from a thrift store! it’s always better to get it cheaper and to basically recycle reuse! Yes, I think those fossil folding dishes are wonderful! They’re great for picnics! I’ll have to look at that Wolfgang mini rice cooker! I have a small one at home right now, but it’s not small enough to really pack up and go anywhere so one thing I’m starting to play with his cooking my rice and then dehydrating it so all I have to do is rehydrate it with some hot water😊💕

Love the S2S collapsible cups with lids! (I have medium cup - which would nest in X-Large bowl with lid, small cup nests in large bowl as she displayed.) Great to throw in your purse for restaurant leftovers, in the car for small loose nuts, snacks, candy on family road trips so those big bags don’t spill. The cup nests inside cup holders. And for yogurt cups that don’t get finished you have a sealed lid! I also like Victorinox folding serrated knife with round tip…though would need to be in checked luggage if flying. Omventure’s ‘sustainable travel kitchen’ lists some similar & additional good ideas for long term travellers. Ultimate fav can opener I’ve used in my home for over a decade - the tiny, mighty ‘super Kim Nogent can opener’ for those who struggle with your flat military style can opener.

I have a similar collection for when I traveled for work! I actually carry less but more electric gadgets. I have a coffee French press thermos (300ml). An electric 500ml/ pint kettle dual voltage (from Amazon UK), a collapsible silicone cup with a clip lid for soup (ramen), a small one with a lid for beverages. Spoons and chopsticks. This goes into my carryon bag. I also carry a bento box of things to eat on the journey if there is no inflight service. If I have checked bags I carry an electric lunchbox, and a small bag (a toiletries bag) with knives, forks, tiny plastic cutting board, tiny whisk, tiny silicone spatula, kitchen towel, small sponge, seasoning, Swiss Army knife with can opener. I have three electric lunchboxes but I only carry one depending on the electric voltage available at the destination. These are Itaki, Hotlogic, and one I got from Korea which is a folding rice cooker. None of these get hot enough to fry things so at some point I may add a Dash mini griddle to my collection. I really like your collapsible silicone boxes too as a lighter replacement for the hotlogic container! Also chopstick are indispensable! I carry a few of the takeout kind as they can be used for cooking and even to mix dough!

You actually CAN open food cans with no can opener but it does make some noise and you need a cement sidewalk or something comparable. You just turn the can upside down on its top and rub the top of the can against the sidewalk in circles over and over until the friction slightly heats the top of the can. The glue holding the top of the can in place will loosen and you can take off the top. Just keep rubbing and testing the can lid until you get it off.

[@TheoryofSimple]

Thank you for sharing that. However, I do think I will just keep my little handy can opener.😊 at the time that I needed the canon printer. It was January in Boise, Idaho, and pure ice outside so I don’t think I would’ve been able to heat it up enough to get the lid off.😊

[@DebiB62]

@@TheoryofSimple Nooooo...... I was just responding to your comment saying "You can't open this (the can) without this (the can opener)." Yes it's a bit "extreme" but if you ever get caught without a can opener again, you don't have to go hungry. It works! I've tried it!! (This was when my opener was just too old and stopped working.) LoL. Say you're out in the wilderness and find you forgot the can opener (although you really wouldn't be likely to be taking too many cans out there unless maybe you could drive to your destination), then just find a flat rock (if you can) or keep a small piece of sample tile with you (like I have to set my glue gun on for arts and crafts). Use any flat surface to get the lid off. There's no need to go without food just because of lacking an opener. (Another situation in which someone might use this is when a homeless person gets canned food from a food pantry but has no opener....... or maybe after a natural disaster (flood, hurricane, tornado, etc.) when things like openers may have been lost. It's always good to know little tricks that keep you fed. :)

I have been freeze drying foods at home since 2016. I have been focused on food storage and having fast spoiling foods on hand such as mushrooms and fruits and veggies and also made my husband hunting kits which he said were like being at home in the dark cold forest. I am looking into making travel kits such as bone broth, fruit purees to add to smoothies or milk or into yogurts for extra nutrition. There are so many sizes of mylar bags that flat pack and one small 4x6 can hold a family’s worth of food powder, a quart can hold 2-3 servings of regular soups, and a gallon (8x12) can feed 4-8 adults. The weight is mere ounces as well. For short term trips, I would buy the mylar that has the clear front so it can be inspected without opening. They are TSA friendly. The foods don’t last as long and be very care when opening. Treat as if fresh. FD foods are extremely hydroscopic and will draw in moisture from the air so keep it closed until used. Our favs are spaghetti, stroganoff, stews, and hamburger rice meals. So filling and healthy and morale boost while giving utmost nutrition. -think mountain house with it the sodium and preservatives. Traveling with FD food can also be a literal life saving aspect when food allergies are involved. Your food your sourcing.

I'm with you on some of these things. I must have my own utensils and coffee cup so I always carry my collapsing cup and plastic UCO spork. They also make a foldable plastic knife spoon and fork kit that is very compact. I love my squishy bowls for Ramen noodles 🍜 or cereal. I also have a lovely set of stainless steel chopsticks that I take with me when I travel and for every day use. Very inexpensive on Amazon. Your suggestions are excellent.

Thank you so much! I actually used my Saturday in the hospital! I went down to the cafeteria the hospital, and was very disappointed in the food so I decided to pack my own dinner tonight to take it in to visit my partner! I think even the hospital staff was jealous of what I brought him to eat😊

I’m planning an international trip and saw in a different channel to use detergent sheets. Yes, flat sheets ( about the size of a dryer sheet) that dissolve completely when in contact w water. They can be torn into a small piece for sink or bathroom washing. I chose a magnolia scent just to be different, and when the box arrived I adore the smell! Anyhoo - I’m going to test try them at home - socks and underwear in the sink and a pair of pants in the tub. Of course you can use a whole sheet in your home washer. I appreciate that I’m not using a big plastic jug that will never break down and add to our problem with garbage and waste.

Love that you don't pretend to be perfect (not the first time you've mentioned spilling on your clothes 😉), because that's just real. I always have to watch your packing videos more than once, as you have jam packed them with ideas. I've already added some of these to my packing list and work bag, and will be getting some more. I'm going to the Grand Canyon this summer and will need to do some cooking, so this video will really help. Love that silicone kettle! Thanks, Eunice!

You have such great videos and I learn a lot too. I too carry a portable kitchen, though not all the time and depending on where I’m going and how long I’m staying. I get so tired of eating out not to mention how much it’s costs. I also often take my own food for the plane - the food is generally so awful. Thank you so much!

[@TheoryofSimple]

That is awesome! Especially now, when Mr. lines are not serving any food, and many restaurants and hotels are not serving food late at night or at all. I think it’s more important than ever now that we have something that we can bring with us on the plane and in the airport also because of the delays that have been happening the last time I was laid as in Albuquerque and by the time we got to our customer service experience everything in the airport is close including the restaurant at the hotel we stayed at so thank goodness I brought bento boxes for that trip!😃

Great video as always! When I travel by air, one "kitchen" item I always bring is dish soap in a small travel size hand sanitizer bottle. Sometimes hotels have just glass drinking glasses or coffee/ tea cups(Ireland) and "real" silverware and I will wash them in the sink using my dish soap that I brought. Blessings!

[@TheoryofSimple]

Thank you so much! 🙏😊 that is why I always bring my wilderness wash because I can wash dishes and clothes and everything with it in case the efficiency or Airbnb does not have any soap.😀

The "Antibacterial Hand Soap" is essentially the same thing. A small "Goo Tube" of it is always in my "wet" bag.

[@Brandon-0028]

I just can't help but watch all your videos Eunice! They are a lot of fun. Its nice to have those comforts of home when travelling. I've noticed for years that food servers in restaurants clean dirty dishes off tables from others, and then return with your food or drink without washing hands in between. Because of this I like to use straws. I too do not like the feeling of stainless steel on a straw, however I did pick up some titanium straws on Amazon (really cool looking), and they don't seem to have the same weird sensation as stainless. It is also much lighter weight. I hope you are doing great! B

I have that portable pot and like it very much but one problem is it takes the smell of whatever you cook it in and can’t really wash it off. So I use it mostly to boil water then pour water in another container or have another one so one for savory food. We use it when we stealth car camp. Usually it’s just water for hot cocoa or coffee or instant noodles or oat meal but only to boil water. It’s great because cause it’s smaller than other foldable silicone kettle. 2 ppl in an suv .. every inch counts. International travelers get a plug converter cuz it’s 110v. lol… there are hacks to open a can with out a can opener on line .. my bf gets a kick out of watching those things .

I used to go to a lot of conventions, and had a whole kitchen set-up that fit in a single green grocery bag, but this puts my travel kitchen to shame. XD Mine never had to fly, though, so I usually brought a small rice cooker, too. I saved so much money not having to buy food during a 4 day convention.
